Where did Welshy come from? When they're boarding the rocket, and Shatner and Nimoy have their nice little farewell scene, there are only 4 jars in the rocket. Shatner take the fifth space, and the last one was for Nimoy. So again, how did Welshy get to Omega III? On related note: Why is Bender so hostile towards Koenig? He yells "Koenig" several times, Koenig is the only one to get really hurt (a black eye) and there is that whole Alright Koenig, I wanted to do this for years!" sentence. Doesn't Bender like fake Russian accents?

That's "Brandenburger Tor", one of the landmarks of Berlin. You can see a close up of it here. Big picutre, nice quality.

And did anyone catch that welshie was the member of the crew you've never seen before that gets killed in the first 5 minutes of the show?

It's a gag.

Originally posted by Mitsui: C'mon, thats what weird scenes threads are made for, to find illogical things or mistakes, no matter how funny they are! Pfft! True. But, it's doesn't seem that illogical, when the whole beep thing, is just a setup for related gags throughout the episode. So, that said, the initial line, "one beep for yes, two beeps for no" is the setup (to explain the gag for the viewer), the rest are main Zapp gags knocking down the original setup. Like: Two beeps: "Double yes!" Would that be funny without the setup line? Nope. Second gag is Fry talking in virtual morse-code through the beeper to explain the story so far, and Zapp insisting that everyone else used the beeps too. It's what made the episode hilarious for me.

Yep, that's the external explanation, but in the context of the episode, why is it necessary to explain to Fry how many beeps Yes and No requires, when he can the entire morse-code by heart? And the answer is: because Yes and No are used a lot in court proceedings they're assigned "hotkeys" (hotbeeps?), just like on a PC keyboard. Kif simply tells Fry this, otherwise he might've morsed the words Yes and No. So there, external (Melllvar) and internal (me) explanation provided. Don't say I wont go to great lengths to make this show seem logic.

I like when Bender says, "Another classic science fiction show cancelled before its time." I'm sure that years from now, when we're all watching this episode on DVD, or in reruns (if Futurama ever gets syndicated), that line will make us all laugh, or cry, or perhaps vomit with rage. I'm sure we'll all feel something, anyway.

Another one is: "Shatner's log. Airdate: Unknown." Self-referential humour is sooo funny. Plus, Zapp's: "Quiet you!!" to Shatner is a fantastic moment. As Zapp is based on Shatner.
