Synopsis[]
Doug and Carrie watch Deacon and Kelly's kids while they are out of town. When one of the kids sees them making love in the Palmers' bedroom, they must keep him from telling his parents.
Storyline[]
When Kelly's great aunt dies, both Deacon and she have to go to Chicago and they have no one to watch their two kids, so Doug and Carrie offer to watch them while they're gone. When they first start watching the kids Carrie was terrified of the idea, but soon after they began to love the idea, up until Kirby catches Doug and Carrie being intimate in their parents' bed.

Trivia/Notes[]
- Note: Jerry Stiller (Arthur), although credited, is absent from the episode.
- When Deacon is setting up Doug's surround sound system, and Doug asks to plug in the power, Deacon's response is he's "working with live wires." Actually, the only live wire is the power extension cable Doug is holding. The cables Deacon is working with are the audio and video cables which do not transmit an electrical current, thus only Doug would have felt a shock had something gone wrong.
Goofs[]
