Star Trek Music In "A Clone Of My Own" ?

[on:]

Bender calls up Captain "Musky"? In "A Clone Of My Own", and when Musky or whatever his name is comes up to the stage, that theme/music that plays in the background, it's the same as in the old Star Trek episodes when something mysterious or spooky happens. Anyone else notice this?

ADDITION:

Is Captain Musky maybe an old Star Trek Character?, is this guy famous?

It is the Star Trek music, because Captain Musky looks like Star Trek's Captain Pike (they re-used the same joke in "Where No Fan Has Gone Before").  "Why Must I Be a Crustacean in Love" also had actual Star Trek music.

Oh yeah, i remember that one, where they have to battle each other to death, well...i've just seen 3 of the old star trek movis, in which movie is this scene, the scene where Kirk and Spock have to fight each other to death?

The fighting scene parodied by Futurama was in an old episode called "Amok Time," not in a movie.  Actually, the entire episode "Why Must I Be a Crustacean in Love" was a parody of that Star Trek episode.

That and some "Cyrano de Bergerac"...

Kind of off topic, but there's music from Star Wars playing in the background when they visit the space market in Spanish Fry. It's from the scene in Episode 1 when the first get to Moss Espa.
