Episode Quotes

Leela: In my dream, Fry said he hid a gift for me in his locker... if it's true, then he *must* still exist in some form!
Professor Hubert Farnsworth: Of course he still exists... as a frozen corpse in outer space! Ho! Ho! Ho! Ho! Ho! Ho! Huh!

Professor Hubert Farnsworth: I made myself sad!
Bender: This is great! My buddy's alive, and his credit cards are valid again! Let's go get hammered! [All cheer]
Dr. Zoidberg: I should warn you. I'm a mean drunk.
Leela: I'll find Fry's coffin, get his corpse, and keep it under my mattress to remind me that he's really dead. That'll prove I'm not insane!

Mistakes/Goofs

  • Goof (continuity error): Professor Farnsworth says his former crew was killed by "space bees". In the pilot he said they were killed by space wasps. Bees are not wasps and vice-versa.
