Karl asks if we would have wings if the plane hadn't been invented; this conversation evolves to him asking what year it would be if we changed planet and that we should not change the hours and when told that would be scientifically impossible, claims he's "never worried about it like this". Before claiming sloths need to stop being so lazy. In his diary Karl explores the different forms of Doppleganger "some time thing" and asks why Ducks don't use their wings much.
