* Ricky promises to pay two and a half grand for building homes if Karl does the bungee jump during his trip to Africa. Karl still doesn't do it, but tells Ricky over the phone that he did. At the end of the episode, Karl offers to pay the money himself, but ultimately admits that he didn't actually do the jump after Ricky keeps insisting that Karl earned it.
-->'''Ricky:''' No no, you did it, I'll pay it, you did the jump. You did the jump.
-->'''Karl:''' I didn't do it, I didn't do the jump. I didn't do the jump.
-->'''Ricky:''' ...What do you mean?
-->'''Karl:''' I didn't do it, I didn't do the jump!
-->'''Ricky:''' ...What, the bungee jump?
-->'''Karl:''' Hm.
-->'''Ricky:''' ...But what- when- How were you gonna get away with it? Cause I'd have seen the footage of you not jumping.
-->'''Karl:''' No, but I got Luke the director to put me hat on, and do the jump, but his hat came off, so you can see that he's not bald, so it didn't work.
-->'''Ricky:''' ''(Laughs)'' This is like one of those "dumbest criminals ever", I can't even be angry with you because you are so useless.
-->'''Karl:''' Well we can split the two and a half grand then.
-->'''Ricky:''' Oh no no no no, no no, no, you're paying it. You didn't do the jump, that's hilarious. So now, not only have you made a complete twonk of yourself and shown that you're a coward and a liar, you're two and a half grand down! ''(Laughs)'' Oh, that's amazing! Oh, this is my best day ever! You're sure you saw the gorillas? I'm not gonna get it back and it's Luke in a fucking fur coat?
-->'''Karl:''' ''(Laughs)''

-->'''Stephen:''' Would you be interested in spending some time with some Eskimos?
-->'''Ricky:''' Or Inuits, now. Don't say Eskimo, it's a derogatory term.
-->'''Karl:''' Who's come up with that little problem for them? I've never head an Eskimo moan about that. Why are they gonna be bothered? These people make up little rules, you can't call a midget a midget, they prefer dwarf. And all that, Eskimos wanna be that. Leprechauns don't like it or whatever.
-->'''Stephen:''' ''(Laughs)''
-->'''Ricky:''' No wait, Leprechauns don't exist! Leprechauns do not exist!
-->'''Karl:''' It's the same thing, though. If they did, they'd go "Well, don't call 'em that."
-->'''Stephen:''' What do leprechauns prefer to be called?
-->'''Karl:''' Gnomes or-
-->'''Ricky:''' ''(Laughs)'' Leprechauns prefer to be called Gnomes! Oh god!
