He claims to be a famous illusionist for his greatest and most famous trick, The Great Milk Can Escape. His assistant and late wife Esther are the only people who ever knew the secret, until Raymondo decides to trust Lisa with it. He also claims that he and Esther tried to have a child but failed. It is unclear how Esther died, but at the end of the episode, he drugs himself and he hallucinates that Esther standing before him, so dances with her until the fade to black.
