The episode opens with the surprising news that Clemer is becoming a dad. This revelation is quickly overshadowed by discussions about his intense fascination with Lego Batman, which some hosts find more shocking than his impending fatherhood. Clemer himself links his excitement about being a dad to his love for Batman, even purchasing the 1966 Batman DVD.

Reading this Clemer's gonna be a dad. Wait, really? Yeah. What? Oh, that's awesome. Where did he say that? I That is not even the craziest thing I heard about Clemer today.

One host initiates a 'Bring Back Burgers' campaign, advocating for a summer of eating multiple burgers without shame. This leads to a heated debate about different burger types, with a strong, contrarian opinion against 'smash burgers,' labeling them 'a fake burger' and inferior to juicy, perfectly seared patties. The host argues that smash burgers lack the quality and juiciness of a well-made traditional burger.

I'm just I'm just going to eat so many burgers this summer. I'm trying to make it so that people don't shame you for being like, 'Yeah, I'm going to have four burgers today.' I hate smash burgers. That's part of this. I think it's a [__] It's a [__] burger. I think it's people who are Oh, well the taste. Oh, you get it nice and crisp. What you you know what you can do? You can get a nice juicy burger, Chris, too. You sear it on the the end. Like, why are we smashing our burgers?

Eddie reveals a bizarre college habit of throwing ice cream cones at strangers from a moving car, particularly targeting 'meatheads' or those who 'looked happy.' He justifies it as youthful idiocy but acknowledges the waste of ice cream. This confession prompts the crew to recreate the prank on a coworker, Nikki Smokes.

Somebody commented in the chat saying Eddie used to throw cones at me in college or something along those lines and I thought he was [__] around. So, we called Eddie. We're like, 'You used to do this?' He's like, 'Yeah.' Yeah. I thought I was shocked when he when you called him. I thought he was going to be like, 'No, those people are [__] with you.' He didn't even like flinch. She's like, 'Yeah, I threw cones.'

Dr. Aubrey Jane, a marine biologist specializing in lobsters and crabs, is brought on to analyze an AI-generated video of crabs in intricate tunnel systems. She quickly identifies several inaccuracies, such as a claw emerging from a crab's butt and unrealistic egg-laying. She clarifies that crab homes are typically solitary, L or V-shaped burrows, not sprawling tunnels, and discusses their chemical communication.

Did you see the AI video of the crab in the tunnels? I did. Okay. I did. I had the pleasure this morning. Okay. So, at what point did you know that was AI? Uh, well, in the first second, if you watch, there is a claw coming out of the crab's butt. Yep. And that's not usually how it works.

Inspired by Eddie's college antics, the crew plans and executes a live drive-by ice cream cone prank on their coworker, Nikki Smokes. Deutsch is chosen as the thrower, with Eddie driving and Titus filming. Nikki Smokes, anticipating a prank, cleverly wears one of Big Cat's jackets as a counter-move, leading to a 'good game' handshake post-prank.

Are you willing to throw a cone at Nikki Smokes on the street? [__] Oh my god. We thought we had the guy. We don't have the guy. Yeah, I'll do it. Okay. All right. All right. So, go get a cone right now. Don't fill it up past the the top of the cone. Okay. I did grab big cat's jacket. I had a hunch. He didn't just want me to go get his punch. So, yeah, you got me. But Oh, I don't even know what jacket that is.
