Open in a semi-fancy restaurant, Leela is sitting opposite a guy who twitches nervously every
now and then. Leela is looking a little annoyed with him, but she`s tolerating it.
Leela: So, Max, what do you do for a living?
Max: I work at a spaceport out in the field with those glow-y light thingies landing spaceships.
Leela: Real-ly. What`s that like?
Max(skittish): Oh, sure, it seems interesting, but it`s a death trap! Those spaceships seem
like they`re cooperating with you, but any second, WHAM! You`re a pancake. I don`t trust them,
I tell you. Those spaceship captains are out to get you!
Leela(interrupting): I don`t think this will work out.
Leela leaves the table and sighs as she walks away.
Max: So... I`ll call you!
FUTURAMA THEME
Bender walks through Planet Express and by a candy machine. He stops, looks inside, and gasps
to see it`s stocked with Oilyfinger *with nuts* (As a copy of Butterfinger, and nuts as in nuts
and bolts).
Bender: Hmmm....
Bender reaches into his pocket and pulls out his coin-on-a-string. He slips it in, the machine
whirrs, but the candy gets stuck inside!
Bender: Lousy rip-off! I`ve been gypped! You can`t trust any machines in the world today! I`m
going to Washington to report this injustice to....
Leela walks by Bender and the camera follows her out of the room.
Amy(from another room): Bye, Ma--Mmmm....
Leela(questioning): Hmmm....
Leela walks into the other room and shows looks of first surprise, then anger. The camera
flips around to show Amy kissing the same Max Leela dated the night before.
Leela: Amy!!
Amy: Oh, Leela, hi....
Max picks up on the rivalry and tries to slip away.
Leela: [grabs Max] You`re not going anywhere! [To Amy] Amy! Have you been looking through my
phone numbers?!
Amy: No way! That`s where you caught me last time, I`m not that stupid. So this time I closed
my eyes while I photocopied it.
Leela's eye narrows into an angry slit and she leaves the room in a huff. Max manages to slip
away into a kitchen cupboard to escape in the background. Close up on Leela`s face.
Leela(voice over of thoughts): I can`t believe Amy! Just because she thinks she has a cute
belly button she can steal my dates. Well my belly button's cute too! This is war! I`m going to
have to do the most devious, sly, underhanded, thing possible.... completely ignore her. Well...
that`s another thing settled... now what do I do? I can`t go into the kitchen for coffee, Amy's
in there! Hmmm....
Leela looks around the room and sees Fry watching TV.
Leela: Hey Fry!
Fry jumps.
Fry: Oh.... Hi Leela.
Leela: What'cha doing?
Fry: .... Stuff.
Leela: Oh.... stuff. Can I do... stuff with you?
Fry: Okay.
Leela sits down on the couch next to Fry. Fry looks over at her and gives a slightly confused
look. *Series of Clips*: Leela repetitively pops up and surprises Fry saying, "Hey, Fry!"
"What`s up?" "Great to see you Fry!" "Does this color lipstick match my complexion?" (Fry runs
from the room after that one.) Cut to Fry eating at the table in the kitchen, Leela pops up out
of nowhere (like the times before).
Leela: What'cha doing?
Fry(with mouth full of food): Immmuuugh...
Leela: Great, nice to hear! I just got this cutest tank top and I needed to show somebody....
Fry looks a little scared, mouth still full of food and afraid to swallow. Amy walks by, and
gives Leela a conceited look. Leela notices her, continues to act "normally" and pats Fry on
the back in a friendly manner. Fry begins to choke and gasp. Nor Leela or Amy notice as they
continue their staring contest. Amy starts to walk away while still keeping her eye on Leela,
and because of that she slips and falls. Shortly after, Fry collapses from lack of air and
whacks his head on a the table. Fade out and in on Fry`s head. Fry developed a bruise where he
was injured before. He's in his apartment, Fry walks around in circles while Bender leans
against the couch.
Fry: I`m tellin' you, Bender, the last few days have been weird.
Bender: Uh-huh.
Fry: Leela's been following me around and asking my opinions on all sorts of girly stuff--
Bender: Uh-huh.
Fry:-- and it`s all because of this fight with Amy. I`ve got to do something before I go--
Bender: Uh-huh.
Fry: --insane!!
Bender: Uh-huh
Fry: Bender?
Bender: Uh-huh
Fry walks over and opens Bender's chest cavity to reveal a large knob set on "Uh-huh mode."
(Other settings include "fake interest", "Love machine", and "cheerful little ragamuffin."
Fry gives an annoyed look to the camera.
Fry: Well.... I can complain without Bender, there`s tons of people I can talk to. Like...
ummm...
Fry looks around and then down at his hands, he grabs a pen from offstage and draws on his
fingers off camera. Cut to the other side to show they`re scribbled to look like stick figures.
Fry (In different goofy voices as he plays with his `finger people'): Hello! Hel-lo! Little
finger people! Little finger-people!
Fry continues to fool around until he suddenly jumps.
Fry: Aaaaah! What was that! Oh... *yawns* just an owl, and---Aaaaaaah! What was that? Oh.
Just a milk crate, and---Aaaah! What was that? Oh... just a piece of mold with purple hair
and an eye growing out of it.
Fry calms down for a few seconds, then opens his eyes wide and looks behind him to where he saw
the mold.
Cut to the next morning at Planet Express. Fry and Amy are sitting next to each other, and
Bender and Hermes are on the other side of the table. Leela enters the room and mumbles a
small "Hmmph.." to see Fry and Amy next to each other. Leela walks over and sits next Fry on his
other side.
Leela: Good morning, Fry... and person sitting with Fry.
Amy sneers.
Amy: So, Fry, my RICH parents are taking me on a vacation to the rings of Saturn, wanna come?
Fry: Uhh... what aboue Lee--
Amy: The person to your.... [thinks about it] lef--right can always go shrimp farming with
Dr. Zoidberg.
Leela gets a horrified look on her face.
Hermes: Alright, people, any buisness?
Bender: As a matter of fact, I have some.
Everybody stares at Bender, then laughs.
Bender: Alright.... shut up, just shut up! I happen to have a very important matter to discuss
*ahem*, this all started when the ancient Greeks used primitive tecnology to store--
Hermes: Annual pay cuts for babbling employees coming up...
Bender: I`m going to protest some stuff in Washington D.C. and maybe take a quick stop in Las
Vegas on the way back, see ya in three weeks.
Leela: On the way back? Las Vegas is in--mmmph!
Bender clamps a hand over her, waves goodbye, and runs off.
Hermes: O....k.... well, the crew is one man short today. You`ll have to find somebody else to
take on the delivery.
Fry: Well, we could always bring Amy.
Leela grimaces. Fade to the three of them on the PE ship; Leela and Amy on either sides of
Fry. Fry pulls a deck of cards out of his pocket.
Fry: Wanna play Go Fish?
Leela: If you want to fish, there`s a big trout on your other side.
Amy: Oh yeah? Well.... oh yeah? You wouldn`t know fashion if it did... something obvious!
Fry: Monopoly?
Leela: You date stealing snooping little--
Fry(cutting her off): Candyland?
Amy looks around for something to throw at Leela. She finds an unopened Slurm can and does just
that. But thanks to her bad aim and Leela's quick Kung-Fu reflexes, Leela bounces it off, the
can hits Fry, and spills open everywhere. Amy and Leela begin to wrestle in the spilled Slurm
and all their punched and kicks somehow hit Fry. Fry stumbles up to the camera.
Fry(in pain and goofily): Well, boys and girls, this has been a painful episode.
Fry collapses and fade out. Fade in on a view from the floor looking up on Leela and Amy
looking down. Two orange points of hair are on one side of the camera to hint that it`s Fry's
POV. Amy pokes him.
Leela: Well.... friends?
Amy: Sure.
They continue to stare at Fry and Amy pokes him again.
The credits roll, then squash to the side. Bender is on the steps of the White House shouting
at the top of his lungs.
Bender: Oh, kick me out will you! Someday you`ll regret it, the machines of today and committing
great injustices! Someday I tell you, humans will have to stand around waiting for quarters, not
very much fun now, is it? Hey! Don`t tell me the show's over! Stupid penny pinching Fox
people--
Cut to the 20th century FOX logo. Then to a shot of a kitchen cupboard.
Max(muffled and desperate): Help?! I`ve been trapped in here for three days! There are rats
making babies in here! ... some kind in ingenious invention with.... CHEESE! [snap] Owww! It bit
me!
Fade to black.
