I was reading an interview with DXC last night and this part in particular caught my eye: "As the series draws to a (temporary) close, we wonder if we've learned the entirety of Fry's origin story and how he came to be in the year 3000. Not to worry, Cohen assures that he is not finished with that tale quite yet. When asked how much of it was left—after the Nibblonian saga was finished and the "Lars" adventure in the first DVD movie—he responded that there is "one sentence," uttered in the series that was left unaddressed. But it's up to superfans to figure out which sentence, not to mention which episode, he is referring to." I don't know if this has already been discussed, but does anyone have any theories on that "one sentence"? I'm glad someone brought up the Lars thing, but I wish it would have been in relation to how the continuity of Fryrish and JB are altered, or if the timeline was "reset" once the duplicate Lars was eliminated, similar to the "duplicate Fry" from Why of Fry.... I would however, enjoy more flashbacks of LarsFry interacting with his family if that timeline is intact, I always enjoyed the 20th century flashbacks throughout the series.... EDIT: Here is the interview I was reffering to BTW: http://i.gizmodo.com/5163848/futuramas-creator-isnt-afraid-of-robots-doesnt-own-a-roomba

It's fun you should say it is an interview with Matt Groening, when it is clearly David X. Cohen.
You silly man. Especially considering it was Cohen who wrote that very episode.

Can I plead the "Oops!" On this one?

Spoilers! Fry is Rassilon and Bender is Omega.

If Leela is this 'other' it's too coincidental for both her and Fry to be the chosen ones AND end up being friends and working with each other in the future, so maybe that's why he was destined to come to the future, hence why the universe would explode if Nibbler/Himself didn't push himself into the Cryo-tube...

I'm pretty sure Leela is the other.
Well, Nibbler did say ' SHE must be the Other!' directly after Fry mentioned Leela, so....

Okay, yes he did say that. I think what I meant to say was, I'm pretty sure when DXC said that, he was talking about that paticular 'one sentence left unaddressed." Again. I demand answers this season.

I expected it to be in 'Yo Leela Leela' before we knew the plot, but oh well.... 
Any reason beyond the title? :P Actually, I'm sort of glad they don't do it this season. They talk a lot on the tWoF commentaries about how they really wanted to push the epic story further, with more clues for additional seasons, but they had to do it in season four because they thought they were to be cancelled. As of 2011, Futurama is somewhat more safe, with at least one more season for sure, and without too much speculation, quite possibly more seasons beyond that. I hope the writers put in more and more clues, and have an awesome "the other" episode in a couple of seasons. Maybe even the series finale (season 10^23).

You need to get out more.

If I got out more, I wouldn't be having a conversation with a one eyed duck troll about a throwaway sentence in an science fiction cartoon on an online message board about the aforesaid science fiction cartoon.
I meant, it is not the most homoerotic thing I have seen; and I don't get out at all! Then - perhaps - you should not get out more, perhaps less.

I don't really know, I just hear the phrase 'you need to get out more' when someone indicates that they have just seen the most extreme case of something when it was actually very mild.

What episode is this line from? I want to look it up on the Infosphere to get the context.
