| rdfs:comment | - Snacky is an automated snack dispenser the crew discover on an abandoned space station. Rimmer and Kryten agree to take him back to Red Dwarf believing him to be the highly advanced medi-bot Asclepius, who was actually elsewhere on the station attempting to operate on the Cat and Lister, having since gone mad. Both Kryten and Rimmer continue to assume that Snacky is Asclepius even after they save Cat and Lister, with Rimmer even attempting to use his psychiatric skills, before finally discovering the truth after they attempt to get him to change the genetic information of Cat's kidney to match with Lister's, which had been stolen.

| abstract | - Snacky is an automated snack dispenser the crew discover on an abandoned space station. Rimmer and Kryten agree to take him back to Red Dwarf believing him to be the highly advanced medi-bot Asclepius, who was actually elsewhere on the station attempting to operate on the Cat and Lister, having since gone mad. Both Kryten and Rimmer continue to assume that Snacky is Asclepius even after they save Cat and Lister, with Rimmer even attempting to use his psychiatric skills, before finally discovering the truth after they attempt to get him to change the genetic information of Cat's kidney to match with Lister's, which had been stolen. Snacky is quite frustrated by the whole incident, but is later convinced by the Dwarfers to recall the findings of the scientist Ramiro G. Gonzales, who would discuss his work with his colleagues while going for snacks. Based on this knowledge Snacky himself is able to become a quite capable stasis booth engineer, allowing the crew to go back in time to steal past Lister's kidneys in order that present Lister may live. Snacky would also later experiment with some of the lifts, allowing at least one of them to travel close to the speed of light by installing a nuclear reactor to its counterbalance, much to Rimmer's despair.
