I have a sleeper booked through AGR, traveling from A to B.

I have a friend who lives several stops from B and might join me for a couple of days in B.

Since the sleeper is booked with points, can I add him to an open sleeper ticket using points, or will he have to pay cash?

If he does pay cash, is the open sleeper + points + cash formula going to make the reservations system explode?

How do I do this? Am I going to make a CSR's day complete and utter hell?
 
Open sleeper, points, and a different set of city pairs?

I don't think paying for open sleeper affects your Rez. I suspect you could buy his with points.

Right?

It's only a few hours, so we could just hang out in the lounge if he buys a coach ticket, but I'd like to show him the roomette. Plus, we'll both get dinner. :) I'd like him to have the full experience.
 
Buy the ooach ticket, tell your sleeper attendant of your intentions to have your friend hangout in your room (probably a good time to tip for your journey) , whomever orders the more expensive dinner put on your tab, pay cash for the cheaper.
