Ricky Gervais' cringeworthy dance routine as managerial buffoon David Brent was undoubtedly the highlight of BBC comedy, The Office. Prehaps the credit for the scene should not go to Ricky Gervais however, but his lanky co-writer Stephen Merchent. For I hear that 6 foot 7 inch Merchent has been attracting a great deal of female attention at the [so-and-so] pub in North London, until he took to the dance floor with Brent-esque results. Says my mole, most of the feminie throng looked away in embaressment. Putting it kindly he was rather ungamely, like a giant albatross hopping on stilts.
Steve takes issue with this as he says remembers he spent the night talking to a friend about how they were too shy to talk to girls. He goes on to say that if he had taken to the dancefloor, he would not have been described as "a giant albatross hopping on stilts" due to the fact that Steve has won two dance competitions.

Karl returns to his 'aging backward idea' that was first concocted in Series 1, Episode 3. Karl gets annoyed when Rick and Steve dismiss his idea and states that his idea needs time to catch on, like the frisbee.
Karl explains his idea for an invention: a clipable mat that can be attached to cups and mugs. Ricky and Steve question its practicality and the limitations of its use. They then go on to ask if anyone would like to invest in this idea and produce it.
Karl's Diary - Karl discovers on the internet a doctor who injects himself and hiw wife with 'stuff' that makes them age less. Karl thinks that this isn't a good idea as "you need oldness".
