Fry, in an effort to win Leela’s love, makes a deal with the Robot Devil to become a gifted musician. He has tried to take holophonor lessons, but his teacher claimed he had “stupid fingers.” Bender realizes that the Robot Devil is the only one to help. Fry makes a deal only to regret it immediately as it comes with a hefty price.

When a young star of the hit robot soap opera “All My Circuits” literally falls to pieces, Bender seizes his chance for stardom. Along with Fry and Leela, Bender sabotages the auditions and secures a spot on the show. As a result of Bender’s misbehavior, the Nielsen numbers rise, making Bender a star. When a new group, Fathers Against Rude Television (F.A.R.T.) plans a Million Dad March to protest his character, Bender realizes his effect on kids.

When Fry, Bender and the Planet Express gang attend Roboticon 3003 - the world’s largest robot trade show - the Professor purchases the new “Robot 1-X”, which threatens to render Bender obsolete. Feeling inadequate, Bender returns to MomCorp for an upgrade, but becomes terrified that the procedure will erase his robo-humanity. In desperation, he escapes from the factory and becomes a castaway on a tropical island that seems uninhabited… or is it? Violence ensues.

Bender faces his greatest challenge when he tricks his way into the 3004 Earth Olympian and wins several events, but he must endure the final and most revealing test to receive his medals. When Bender has a date with a major robot celebrity, Calculon, he sees this as an opportunity to be wined and dined like never before. When Bender realizes there’s an inequity of feelings, he enlists Fry’s and Leela’s help to stage a “soap opera death”.

When the Planet Express gang goes camping in the woods for their company outing and Fry goes searching for an encounter with his favorite legendary figure, Bigfoot — he is beamed aboard a spaceship and returned the next day without a nose. Fry learns that humans everywhere have been losing their noses and aliens are profiting for the sale of “human horns.” A suggestion from Leela and a surprise visitor aim at keeping the human face safe.

As a result of Zapp Brannigan’s victory over the Arachnid home-world, Richard Nixon’s head gives everyone a $300 refund from the silk surplus. Leela, the Professor, Bender, and Fry find wacky ways to spend the money. When things gets too hot at Zapp’s celebration dinner, Fry saves the day.

When the Professor conducts an experiment so hideous that he wants his apparatus destroyed in the thermonuclear inferno of the sun, he has Leela guard the two-foot cubic box overnight so that no one opens it and sets it off. Fry and Bender try their best to sneak a peek but it is Leela who finally gives in and opens the box. Drawn into the power of the box, Leela is thrown into a parallel universe, which has duplicates of the Planet Express gang - including Leela.

After arriving at an asteroid field in deep space, Fry, Leela and Bender attempt to collect honey produced by vicious space bees. Leela decides to take a baby queen bee that incidentally kills Fry! While at Fry’s funeral, guilt-ridden Leela has a romantic dream that causes her to believe that Fry is still alive. As Leela’s bizarre dreams continue to develop, she sinks into a much stranger sleep.

Fry feels really down as Leela is head over heels because of Chaz, the Mayor’s Aide. While on her date, Leela asks Fry if he could walk Nibbler, and he reluctantly agrees. When he says how unimportant he feels, Nibbler speaks and takes him to his home planet. There, Fry learn about his genetic abnormality that qualifies him for a mission to save the universe. While on this mission, we learn what really happened on the night Fry was frozen.

When Fry and the Planet Express gang realize that at 161 years old, the Professor has become too crotchety to handle, they decide he needs to be “youth-a-sized”. Traveling to an asteroid, they register the Professor at a posh resort where their full-body bath in searing hot tar is guaranteed to turn back the clock. Through a series of unfortunate accidents, the bath covers not only the Professor but also everyone else and all are affected by the treatment. Back at Planet Express, a now 53-year-old Professor tries to keep a now 13-year-old Fry and other kids under control while looking for a way to reverse the effects of the tar treatment. Meanwhile, “the kids” all react to their newfound youth, including Leela, who decides she could have a taste of the childhood she never had as an orphan.
