Philip J. Fry, II is Fry's nephew and Yancy's son, and best known as the singer of the band Leaf Seven as well as the first man to walk on Mars.

Biography

Philip was first exposed to spaceships as a newborn baby when his father hung Fry's picture of him on a spaceship. Little did Yancy know he was raising one of the world's most famous and influential men, due in no small part to his uncle Fry's lucky seven-leaf clover, which he was given as a baby. He eventually grew up to become a world-renown philanthropist and entrepreneur. His first brush with fame was when he struck oil in a mansion he won in a lottery. He later went on to have a fling with international super model Njörd. Later he had a string of top 10 hits with his band Leaf Seven. Although he did many great things, his greatest accomplishment was being the first man to walk on Mars.

His father, Yancy Fry Jr., named his son after his brother, who had disappeared several years before. In memory of his brother, he gave his old seven-leaf clover to his son, and it later became his trade mark.

Philip rests in Orbiting Meadows National Cemetery. Either he, or an unnamed sibling, is a direct ancestor of Professor Farnsworth.

Time-Paradox Issues

Originally, Philip J. Fry, II never would have met his uncle, but this changed because of the events of "Bender's Big Score" where the time-paradox duplicate of Philip J. Fry that became Lars Fillmore was around between 2000 and 2012. These events rewrote the life of Philip J. Fry, II as defined by "The Luck of the Fryrish". As a result of Philip J. Fry, I's return, it is possible that Philip J. Fry, II either never received the seven leafed clover or instead was given it directly by his uncle rather than by his father. It is also likely that he was named after Philip J. Fry, I for different reasons, as given his return Yancy Fry, Jr. would not have had reason to miss Philip J. Fry, I. It is possible, however, that the disappearance Yancy Fry, Jr. was referring to was that of his time-paradox duplicate in 2012, after Bender destroyed Panucci's Pizza. Another possibility is that Philip J. Fry, II was born after Fry went on his expedition to capture Leelu. Since it is never shown that Fry told his family where he was going, it is likely he was considered "disappeared."

Trivia

• After being played by Lauren Tom in Bender's Big Score, he became one among few Futurama male characters voiced by a woman.
• He was most likely born around 2007 because when Bender came to kill him in 2012 he was about 4-5 years old.
