"Proposition Infinity" is the ninety-second episode of Futurama, the fourth of the sixth production season and the seventh broadcast season. It is scheduled to air 8 July, 2010 on Comedy Central.[1] It will guest star George Takei making his third Futurama appearance as himself.
The Story
Little information about this episode has been revealed so far, but it will deal with a robosexual relationship between Bender and Amy[2] with Bender trying to pass a ballot initiative: Proposition Infinity to legalize robosexual marriage [3] It is also known that the Hyper-chicken will appear in this episode.[4] Also, Hedonismbot will be dressed up in an S&M-outfit.[5] Futhermore, a picture has been released suggesting that Kif may have forgiven Amy for sleeping with Zapp. However, this pic is contradicted by a video preview of Amy and Kif arguing.
Storyboard
- Main article: Storyboard:Proposition Infinity
Another storyboard released from Act 1 of "Proposition Infinity" previews a scene entitled "Bender and Roberto in Jail". In this scene, we see Bender with Roberto in jail. Roberto asks if Bender has ever killed a man with a sock, then Roberto threatens Bender with a sock. He runs away, and, to protect him, take a wood stick and a knife and carves the stick with the knife.
Production
This episode and the second episode of the sixth season will also feature some more coarse language, that would previously not be possible on FOX.[4] Some people wonder if this could hurt Futurama's possible return to FOX.[4] But it's still possible for FOX to show the episodes if they were to censor the coarse language, just like they do with Family Guy and American Dad.

It’s taboo and illegal in the future, and there’s going to be a very shocking romance between Bender and one of our female characters." — Cohen, David
