Ink defense



The ink defense is a Decapodian feature used to flee enemies, and is immediately triggered when a member of the species is frightened or attacked, or for that matter on command.

Zoidberg used his ink pouch for non-defense purposes as well, when he was writing a letter to his Uncle Zoid, he wanted the letter to be personal, so he wrote it using his own ink.

When Leela decided to get surgery to give her two eyes, Zoidberg suggested that she gets an ink pouch to help her escape her enemies. Farnsworth said that was a stupid idea, calling Zoidberg an imbecile, he prepared to hit Zoidberg with his rolled-up newspaper, but Zoidberg sprayed ink at his face and ran off, wooping. Zoidberg later sprayed ink on Leela while she was having dinner with Adlai Atkins.
