who falls in love in "How Hermes Requisitioned His Groove Back"?

[Reply #281 on:]

Fry and Morgan. 

[Reply #282 on:]

Errr... whats love got to do with saizes?
 
And Fry didn't fall in love with Morgan.
But they did do some "falling" if u know what i mean. 
Nope sorry guys..
It was mentioned really fast in 2 of the episodes and part of the main plot in 1 of them.

[Reply #283 on:]

Some mention of the ship having a personality of it's own?

Bender was dating the ship in L&R and mentioned a drinking contest with the autopilot in HHRHGB. I can't think what it could be in BL though.

[Reply #284 on:]

We hear the autopilot speak at the beginning of "Bendless Love."

[Reply #285 on:]

In "How Hermes Requisitioned His Groove Back" Leela was made co-pilot to the Autopilot

[Reply #286 on:]

Yes in How Hermes Requesititioned his Groove Back he said "And I liked her because I was desperate."

[Reply #287 on:]

OK we have a WINNER!
Prof. Wernstrum, u have the floor..
Ship's AI/Personality was the answer..

What connects:

I Second That Emotion
A Clone of My Own
Time Keeps on Slipping
Leela's Homeworld
Bender Should Not Be Allowed on TV
Teenage Mutant Leela's Hurdles

[Reply #290 on:]

we c leelas parents in all of them

[Reply #291 on:]

I was gonna say that!
Except I don't think we see them in "A Clone Of My Own"

[Reply #292 on:]

It has something to do with a similar event in each episode.

[Reply #293 on:]

I have noooo idea! Er, Leela saves someone????

[Reply #294 on:]

Whao man.. This is a good one..
Let me have a go at it, aye?
PEOPLE SWIMING IN SOME FORM OF LIQUID:

I Second That Emotion - Fry gets dunked in sewer water.                 
A Clone of My Own - Cubert in the clone-o-mat.
Time Keeps on Slipping - Err.. Lake scene with ppl swiming in the background?
Leela's Homeworld- Leela takes a dive in the mutagenic lake.
Bender Should Not Be Allowed on TV - Calculon and Monique in a tub of cham-pa-gen?
Teenage Mutant Leela's Hurdles - Tar, then Fountain Of Aging.

Please stop me if i guessed it..   

[Reply #295 on:]

If it was that, I would have included The Deep South, amongst others.

Action Jacktion gave a similar question a while back.

[Reply #296 on:]

Also, Fry and the Slurm Factory (swimming around in the river of 'Slurm')

Hmmm...I'm still thinking...

[Reply #297 on:]

It seems that this question is a bit difficult for your soft, human brains. It involves annual events of some kind.

[Reply #298 on:]

Birthdays?

I Second That Emotion: Nibbler
A Clone of My Own: Farnsworth
Time Keeps on Slipping: Amy & Zoidberg
Leela's Homeworld: Leela
Bender Should Not Be Allowed on TV: Cubert & Dwight
Teenage Mutant Leela's Hurdles: Amy

(We also see flashbacks to the actual dates of birth for Fry and Bender in "Luck of the Fryrish" and "Bendless Love" respectively.)

[Reply #299 on:]

Correct

[Reply #300 on:]

This one will either be easy or impossibly difficult.

What connects Barbados Slim, Dwight, Jackie Anderson, and Leela in her wrestling outfit?

And I want the specifics explained for at least three of these, since you might be able to figure it out without knowing how all of them fit the connection.

[Reply #301 on:]

who/what is barbados slim? what episode?

[Reply #302 on:]

Barbados Slim is Hermes' rival and LaBabara's ex-husband. He appeared in Bend Her.

[Reply #303 on:]

They all compete against someone else?

Barbados Slim vs. Hermes in Bend Her, Dwight (and Cuebert) vs. Planet Express in The Route of all Evil, Jackie Anderson vs. Leela in A Leela of Her Own, and Leela in her wrestling outfit vs. Amy in her wrestling outfit in Jurassic Bark.

[Reply #304 on:]

of course. one of the 3 eps. i haven't seen.

[Reply #305 on:]

I guess it's time for a hint.  Hmm... okay, the connection doesn't really have anything to do with anything the characters actually do in their appearances.

[Reply #306 on:]

They don't where a lot of cloths?

[Reply #307 on:]

Right, 'coz Jackie Anderson was always seen wearing nothing but a bathing suit. 

[Reply #308 on:]

hahahaha weeeeee! nevermind

[Reply #309 on:]

Aren't these supposed to connect Futurama episodes?

[Reply #310 on:]

J.P, either you were taking a whizz when the concept of sarcasm was introduced or you're intentionally taking my post literally so that you can sit in the hot seat. Grrrr. 

 SuperFry, what's your point?

[Reply #311 on:]

Oh sorry my bad forget what I said.

[Reply #312 on:]

Okay, we have less than 23 hours left on this question.  Does anyone have a guess?

[Reply #313 on:]

I suppose no one had a guess.  Now we're at less than four hours.  Let me think of another hint... okay, the connection has to do with when we see the characters.

[Reply #314 on:]

When the writers run out of ideas?

[Reply #315 on:]

Well, time's up.  Either the question was too hard or (almost) no one cared.  Anyway, what's the connection between Barbados Slim, Dwight, Jackie Anderson, and Leela in her wrestling outfit?  Each of them actually appeared before the broadcast of the episode in which they were introduced.

Barbados Slim made a brief appearance in Futurama Comics #11, which came out well before "Bend Her."

Dwight was seen in "Anthology of Interest II" and "A Leela of Her Own" before his intended first appearance, "The Route of All Evil," because it was delayed.

Because the episodes were shown out of order, Jackie Anderson showed up in "Futurestock" a week before the first broadcast of "A Leela of Her Own."

And Leela in her wrestling outfit?  Well, in 2001, a special variant "swimsuit" Leela action figure was released, and you'll find it looks rather familiar.  (By the way, even if all the episodes had been shown on time, this still would have come out before "Jurassic Bark" was broadcast, so you can't blame Fox for this one.  Unless you really want to.)

Well, that's it. 

[Reply #316 on:]

You have to post a new question now, AJ.

[Reply #317 on:]

Okay, maybe someone will get this one, it's a more normal connection:

"The Deep South"
"That's Lobstertainment!"
"Godfellas"

[Reply #318 on:]

Hint please?

I'm very stuck.

[Reply #319 on:]

This is a really wild guess, but if im rite im the best and everyone has to call me captain swanman,

is it to do with shoe eating? in godfellas the monks talk about eating there shoes. in thats lobstertainment Fry talks of eating his shoe when he is stuck in the ship under the tar and...er....in the deep south maybe someone talks about eating there shoes when they think they're stuck in the ship under the water.
