I'm watching this season very well, but didn't watch it too well before.
Anyways, who is Doug, the guy that passed away that Brian was really close to, and who did he die?

Also, since there was this guy that was coming to help set up the benefit for Doug that Brian described as Doug's "life-long friend", I was just wondering if Doug was gay. I wouldn't think that Brian would be best friends with someone gay.
