Deep Dick Therapy
Just because Spencer Laval likes to take his time getting ready doesn't mean that he's some prissy schoolboy, and if Jackson Cooper keeps poking the bear he's gonna find out the hard way what Spencer is all about. Yard guy Markie More may not be very good at lawn maintenance, but that doesn't mean he's not a hard worker who knows how to use his tools. Jeremy Spreadums can see the tool Markie is housing in his shed, and if he can't have a nice lawn, he can at least get a little plowed. Bored with their mundane sex life, Aspen suggests he and partner Jamie Steel try something a little more adventurous, as suggested by their therapist. It's finally time for Scott Finn to eat. Justin Matthews has listened to the public cries for someone to give Scott some vital nourishment, and he's decided he's just the man for the job.
