Loose ends

Loose ends, plot holes and unanswered questions are issues in the overall plotline of Futurama which are not described. However, some of these may be intended. Since the show was cancelled, a lot of questions remained somewhat unanswered, but some were later answered with the direct-to-video films and others are hopefully to be answered in the second run.

List

 * If 198 billion Popplers were eaten, then Planet Express would have made over $16 billion worth of profit. What happened to this money is unknown.
 * The Professor's incompetence as a CEO could explain the missing profits. It is possible that he squandered the money, is hoarding it, or was so senile that he forgot to sign a contract before selling Fishy Joe the Popplers.
 * He also has to pay for numerous repairs to the Planet Express ship and building.
 * The word-triggered bomb inside Bender detonates at the end of the episode, and no explanation is given as to how he might have survived. Furthermore, the bomb was supposedly powerful enough to destroy an entire planet.
 * Then again, Zoidberg was the one who put it in, so he may have lused it up.
 * At the end of the episode, Fry is ejected from the ship after asking if he can have his job back.

 * It is never stated how Leela got her hearing back after being deafened by the Robot Devil.
 * Amy and Kif appear to have broken up after Amy slept with Zapp and do not seem to have formally reconciled.
 * Given the amount of time between the film and when we next see Kif and Amy together, it is very likely that they just made up off-screen.
 * Fry and Leela seem to have gone back to their just-friends relationship, though it was never explained why despite the events of Bender's Big Score.
 * Leela mentions at the end of the film that Fry forgot her as soon as he met Colleen. Why Fry was with Colleen instead of Leela is another question, however.
 * Nibbler seems to have returned after he ate himself to escape the universe in Bender's Big Score, without an explanation or questions being asked.
 * The crew's fugitive status is never officially resolved.
 * It is never shown how Scruffy gets his gender restored.
