Synopsis[]
Doug goes on an errand for Carrie and right after Carrie rewards him with a special move in bed so Doug does more errands with Arthur to get that same move again.
Storyline[]
Doug takes Arthur out on a Friday night because he feels sorry for Arthur being all alone. When Carrie hears about this, she shows her appreciation to Doug by giving him oral pleasure. Doug starts to take Arthur out more and more because he hopes Carrie will keep 'appreciating' him. However, Arthur doesn't really fit in with the rest of the group Doug hangs out with.
