"The Duh-Vinci Code" is the ninety-third episode of Futurama, the fifth of the sixth production season and the seventh broadcast season. It aired 15 July, 2010 on Comedy Central. After Fry and the Professor discover a sketch by Leonardo da Vinci, the crew races to Rome to discover his big secret.

The Story

Act 1: "All my life I've been inspired by great minds."

Fry is trying his luck in Who Dares To Be A Millionaire?, a game show hosted by Morbo. He fails the first question, and gets "thrown out". Later, the crew is all gathered by the conference table discussing Fry's (lack of) intelligence. Hermes and the Professor accuse Fry of being dumb, while Amy and Leela stand up for him. The Professor then thinks he was too harsh on Fry, so he takes him to the lab to explain why he finds him so repugnant. Farnsworth tells Fry about the great minds that have inspired him all his life, such as Leonardo da Vinci, his personal role model. He shows "the dumb monkey" his most precious possessions, among which we find an Achilles' heel, some of Leonardo's creations, and his beard. Fry soon discovers a hidden drawing in the beard, a drawing of Da Vinci's fabled lost invention. He offers himself to help the Professor figure out what it was for, but all he gets in return is a teasing laugh.

In front of the Planet Express building, Philip is busy with sad thoughts, and gets hit by a hover car. Two weeks later, he returns from the hospital, while the Professor is trying to deduce the function of the mysterious device. Bender walks in with the original version of The Last Supper, which reveals a clue after a High-Powered X-Ray is fired at it. It seems that St. James was actually a robot... The crew then races to Future-Rome to unearth what became History's greatest mystery.
