Topics of Discussion

 * Further discussion of who's eaten what animal and whether certain animals are legal to do so.
 * Billy needed to be told several times that the lines of the Hobo he played did not contain typos.
 * Origin of music in the training scene is the Karate Kid'.
 * The accusing parlour scene was to be about ten times as long, with many more clues, such as taping some of Fry's hair to the bottle.

Highlights / Quotes
