[Reply #505 on:]

Then Lars would have married Leela.

What if Lars married Leela?

What if The Space Pope wasn't a crocodile?

[Reply #507 on:]

The he would have had to find another way to secure that support of the United Space Church of Amphibians, Reptiles (USCARRM), and Rampaging Monsters. Without the backing of their Space Cardinals he wouldn't have had enough Space Votes to win the Space Election in the Space Papal Space Conclave.

Zoidberg would eat everything that wasn't nailed down, and even a few things were.
