Karl records his screen test for MTV today. Ricky and Steve 'educate' Karl, alongside the usual Educating Ricky, by reading him two fictional stories which demonstrates how gullible Karl is when reading internet material. The stories were...

1. Due to the Data Protection Act. companies are required to grind up all their silicon chips after use and then place the pieces on the beach as it's basically the same as sand. Over time they notice that the crab's behaviour was changing and they were starting to form geometric patterns. They decided to do some investigation and due to the way in which a crab's brain works They were able to draw out images from the crab's brain. As Ricky describes "you could release thousands of them onto enemy beaches and it would be like thousands of digital cameras". The story concludes with Ricky explaining to Karl that the baby crabs which came a few generations down the line had exactly the same memories as the original crabs.

2. A pregnant female body builder woke up one morning to find that her baby had been born (or as Ricky describes - pushed itself out of her vagina) during the night without her noticing, the baby was very strong due to the hormones the woman had been taking and was pulling the woman down the bed using it's umbilical cord.
