Synopsis[]

Carrie's boss invites Doug and Carrie to a cocktail party. Doug, plagued by enormous hunger since he hasn't eaten all day, behaves far from perfect.

Storyline[]

Carrie's boss is having a cocktail party to impress a client and the only way Doug made it there was by not eating anything all day. He embarrasses Carrie by searching for food after he finds out there's no food at the party. Going as far as eating raw, out of date eggs, mints, and plant food, he eventually ruins the party by retching and almost throwing up during a show. Meanwhile, Arthur and Spence have trouble while planning a new business.
