Though Meekman is worried about what is to come, the doctor assures him that everything will be fine and proceeds to check his throat, teeth, gums, tongue and tonsils with the aid of a tongue depressor. Then, with an otoscope, the doctor examines Meekman's ears and, using a ophthalmoscope, his eyes and brain. After a look at his nose with a nasal spectrum, the doctor completes Meekman's exam by checking his heartbeat and blood pressure before feeling for any irregularities with his internal organs. After fielding questions about why bulls charge at the color red (They don't! They actually charge at any kind of motion), and the number of varieties of rice (almost fifteen thousand), Beakman invites chef Art Burn for another segment of "Cooking With Art." For a recipe he calls "Egg in a Bottle," Chef Burn uses boiling water to heat the inside of the bottle as he demonstrates how the cooling of the air inside causes a change in air pressure which sucks the egg inside. Responding to a viewer inquiry about oil, Beakman explains it is not made out of the remains of dinosaurs, but plant and animal life which was buried at the bottom of the Earth's oceans millions of years ago. But, when Lester expresses some skepticism that oil can be created from such basic organic matter, Beakman places wood shavings in a flask and, with heat, distills them into a slimy organic liquid and flammable gas.
