** Carl isn’t actually a slave-owner by choice, and he’s actually hates slavery in general. Bob was basically forced on him without his consent (either via some kind of unbreakable MagicallyBindingContract or some other unusual circumstances), and neither him nor Bob had any say in the matter whatsoever. Because of this, Carl feels really guilty about being a slave owner, even an involuntary one, so he goes out of his way to make sure that Bob is treated really well, because he feels responsible for Bob’s well-being.
