The Drew Carey Show (1995)

S2E19 Man's Best Same Sex Companion

Drew discovers that Speedy’s hip condition has deteriorated, but a promising surgery could bring the dog back to his former vitality. The catch? The procedure comes with a $2700 price tag. Nora suggests that Drew utilize his workplace insurance, which offers same-sex partner benefits; he simply needs to assert that the surgery is for his partner. Reluctantly, Drew consents but soon finds himself needing to prove his relationship by hiring Oswald to pose as his "boyfriend," Aaron.
