I feel like Fry didn’t try hard enough. There definitely still were options, avenues to explore. By running away he just outed himself for how vanilla he is in bed.

My favourite bit is this one from a different episode:
Fry: What’s the matter compressor?
Professor Farnsworth: Nothing’s the matter, Fry, now that I’ve turbo-charged the matter compressor.
I’m partial to the joke in this episode:
[Plunging the ship deep into the ocean]
“How many atmospheres of pressure can the ship take?”
“Well it’s a space ship, so somewhere between zero and one.”
I always think back to this one:
Leela: “that guy’s turning this place into some sort of ‘business’”
Professor: “this isn’t a business, I’ve always thought of it more as a source of cheap labor … like a family”
I don’t know why I like it so much. I could see the punchline coming but how the exchange got there makes me smile every time.
One of my favorites was from Bender: “Oh, but you can, but you might have to ‘metaphorically’ make a deal with the ‘devil’. And by ‘devil’, I mean Robot Devil, and by ‘metaphorically’, I mean get your coat.”
I’ve been quoting Farnsworth’s “I don’t want to live on this planet anymore” a lot lately.
Umbriel: This here’s a volcanic vent. The water comes out at over 4000 degrees.
Fry: No Kidding…
Umbriel: Did it just get colder?
I explained to my wife that most men would rather have a vagina attached to a fish than a human torso attached to whatever a fish has down there.
Reminds me of Red Dwarf:
Lister (or maybe it was Rimmer): That’s a mermaid? Shouldn’t it be a woman on top and fish on bottom?
Cat: No, that’s the stupid way round!
Danny John-Jules absolutely crushed that role
We call them land-sea lions. I tame them.
Hail Atlanta!
These here are some Yankees!
How did a city with such a great airport end up at the bottom of the ocean?
I was living in Georgia when this aired, so it really hit home. My favorite episode by far.
Good news! It’s a suppository!
A masterpiece, can’t believe I’ve never heard it before.
