For the regular character, see Carl Carlson.

Karl was Homer's assistant who tried to help Homer succeed as an executive.

History

After Homer was hired as the new junior executive at Springfield Nuclear Power Plant because of his newly grown hair, he had to find an assistant. All the applicants were as Homer put it "making kissy faces" at him until he found Karl. Karl ended up helping Homer immensely by helping him be more confident in himself and by showing how to dress properly. Eventually Homer's $1000 health insurance fraud was found out and right as Smithers was about to fire him Karl took the bullet for him. Karl explained it was all his idea and that Homer had no idea. Karl was fired and Homer got to keep his job as an executive, at least a little longer. Even after being fired Karl still helped Homer out by writing his big speech for him and by giving him his umbrella on a rainy day. Karl had stronger feelings for Homer than even Homer most likely knew. Karl was hinted at being homosexual and when he kisses Homer in the end and explains "My mother taught me never to kiss a fool" it is proven. His current profession is unknown.
