The Story

Fry being frozen

Act I: "Here's to another lousy millenium!"

Fry meets Leela and they have hot sex all night

Act II: "Strip naked and get on the probulator!"

Fry meets Leela and discovers that he has woken up on December 31, 2999 ("a million years!"). Leela assigns him the permanent career of delivery boy, which he refuses. While running away, he meets Bender waiting in line for what he believes is a phone booth. (in reality, a Suicide Booth).

Act III: "Welcome to the head museum."

Fry and Bender duck into the head museum to hide. Leonard Nimoy's head is apparently the greeter. Fry bumps into the shelves, knocking Richard Nixon's head down and provoking him to attack.

Act IV: "We have you partially surrounded!"

Fry, Bender, and Leela hide at Planet Express, then escape into space using the Professor's intergalactic spaceship.

Real-World References

  • The introduction is reminiscent of Star Trek intros (with similar music and voiceover).
  • The barrel-throwin' gorilla is a reference to Donkey Kong.
  • The police use sticks that resemble the light sabres from Star Wars. Unlike their Star Wars counterparts, they are blunt weapons, rather than superheated blades.
