Futurama: Into the Wild Green Yonder Page #7

Synopsis: Dark forces older than time itself are on the attack, hell-bent on stopping the dawn of a wondrous new green age. Don't you hate when that happens? Even more shocking: Bender's in love with a married fembot, and Leela's on the run from the law - Zapp Brannigan's law! Fry is the last hope of the universe, recruited for an ultra-top-secret mission. Could this be the end of the Planet Express crew forever? Say it ain't so, meatbag!

Try and make me, copper.

A troublemaker.

Taste the lash of my|99-cent-store nightstick!

Yee-ha!

With the feministas in|jail, it full speed ahead.

You and me, Fry. We implode|the violet dwarf star tomorrow.

Ka-boom-boom.

- You and me?|- Yeah.

- Tomorrow?|- Tomorrow.

- Ka-boom?|- Ka-boom-boom.

Hello? Madfellows? I need to...

Okay, Leo Wong's about to|destroy the violet dwarf.

So, whatever I need to know|to stop him, tell me now.

Alas! Stopping Wong|isn't the only problem.

One of the Dark Ones will try to|stop you from stopping him.

So, you must stop it from|stopping you from stopping him.

But how can I stop|it stop me stop him?

Stop it! Behold,|the Omega Device.

That's it?

The name "Omega Device" sort of|conjured up something cooler-looking.

Not that I'm disappointed or anything.

The important thing is what's inside.

- What does that look like?|- No one knows, man.

It was invented|by a blind inventor,

and the one dude he|described it to was deaf.

So the legend goes.

When activated, the device will emit|a localized blast of delta-band noise

to momentarily|disable the Dark One.

- Like farting in a tent?|- No, an elevator.

Which is why you must|strike the enemy at point blank range!

But the Dark One could|look like anything or anyone, right?

Or anywhere.

So, what's your plan to recognize it?

- We don't have one.|- Got it.

And we don't dare|think of one neither.

'Cause if we do, the Dark Ones|might sense kind of the general vibe.

Even through our mighty foil.

Oh, man!|Anyone got some tape or some gum?

As my colleague indicated,|the plan cannot come from us, Fry.

We were counting on you

and your unreadable brain|to come up with something.

- That was a mistake.|- I see that now.

Freaky thing is, the Dark Ones'|thoughts are unreadable, just like yours.

Yes, if we dared unwrap our heads,

we could easily locate the one other being|whose mind we can't read. The Dark One!

But then the Dark One|would read our minds

and crush them|like blood pumpkins.

Wait. I can read minds|and my mind can't be read.

- I have a plan.|- Great.

Whatever it is, don't tell us.

Wait. Fry can read minds|and his mind can't be read.

So he can safely|scan for the Dark One...

Shut up! Shut up!

Leela, time is running out.|We must get to the violet star.

Okay, okay. Shut up, already.

Huh?

Nobody's talking, Leela.

We're just painting each other's|toenails with rat blood.

Lights out, ladies!

Those compact fluorescent|bulbs waste pennies a day.

Okay, feministas, all clear.

Whoa!

We now go live to Leela|with the escape plan.

- Leela?|- Thanks, Linda.

Now we're in here because we|tried to save endangered wildlife.

So this time,|endangered wildlife will save us.

The Martian muck leech.

That's right. He's been living|off me since we got captured.

Little cutie almost sucked me dry.

Look at him go.

Like a green snake|through a sugarcane cake.

Keep trying.

Our top story. The universe's most wanted|eco-feminists are now behind bars,

including gang leader, Turanga Leela.|AKA, the Notorious B-I-Itch.

We finished un-pinking|the ship, Hubert. Now what?

Now we get back to work.

And if that means destroying|an ecosystem or two, so be it.

I just meant without our good|friends Fry, Leela, Amy and the robot.

Oh, boo-hoo. This is a business,|not a social club. Money talks.

True wealth is|measured in friendships.

Shut up, you.

Life goes on.

But I believe we'll forever|carry the pain on the inside.

Oh, no, a rooster!|That indicates it's the following morning.

How's that creepy crawler doing?

I'm sorry, femi-sisters,|but it pooped out around 3:00 a. m.

Poor thing couldn't take another bite.

Well, I guess we failed.

But what matters is, we tried our|best and we looked good doing it.

Bender, is that you?

Who does it look like?|My identical cousin Buster?

Yes.

You're here to break us out?|But you're the one who put us in.

But I'm Bender,|king of the combination shot.

I put you in so that by busting you out,|I could commit 15 felonies at once.

Put my rap sheet miles ahead|of yours on the all-time chart.

You are one devious bastard.

That's what it says on my vanity plate.

- What about the sentries?|- Already taken care of.

I sent them a cake laced with nutmeg.|That's a human sleeping drug, right?

No, it's a human baking drug.

Okay, Plan B. Everyone knows|men have one fatal weakness,

they can't resist hookers.|Dixie, Trixie, you know what to do.

Hello, boys!

Your eyes say no,|but your machine gun fire says...

Ladies and gentleman|and whatever,

welcome to my most environmentally|disastrous implosion ever.

A whole star system!

Kif, old boy, mind if I sit on|your shoulders for a better view?

Well, actually, sir, I was hoping...

Thanks.

My associate Philip Fry here will have|honor to blow this ugly, dirty star

into nice, clean black hole.

Fry, careful those wires.|What you doing down there?

Just polishing your shoes, Mr. W.

That nice. Get between|the toes there, very dirty.

Well, so much for Plan B.

What's Plan C?

All situations have the same Plan C.|Bending, come on.

We're boned, Bender.|It's a brick wall.

Granted, it's not on|the list of approved bendables,

but I'm so great!

Dogs! The boning continues.

Green Bluebird, this is Mr. Fabulous.|We are go for cheesing it.

Professor! Hermes! Zoidberg!

Scruffy. A janitor.

You helped us escape?

Even after we locked you in a go-go|cage like common go-go dancers?

I couldn't live with myself, Leela.|I call myself a scientist,

wear the white coat and probe|a monkey every now and again,

yet I put monetary gain|ahead of preserving nature.

Can you ever forgive me?

I reckon.

- I could kiss you, Professor.|- Okay, but watch out for my new grill.

Before the grand finale, as it were,

it seems only fitting that I,|Commodore 64 Zapp Brannigan,

say a few brief pages in honor of...

Whatever your plan is,|Fry, I suggest you get on with it.

Get... Shoot, I got hot|sauce on my Number 9 shirt.

Okay, locate the Dark One by finding|someone whose thoughts I can't read.

And unaccustomed...

By God!|I'm the greatest speaker of all time.

They're suckling at the|teats of my every syllable.

Allow me now...

His voice is like ear sandpaper.|I miss Amy.

The one secret|no one ever suspected

is that I really did|stage the moon landing.

On Venus.

If I had all the money|in the world, I'd... Oh, wait. I do.

I'd like to thank the academy,|my agent, and most of all,

my operating system,|Windows Vista, for everything it...

System error.

Naked ladies. Naked ladies.|Naked ladies. Naked ladies.

I never should have taken that accent|elimination class from Jackie Chan.

And so, as we obliterize this star,

let us remember those immortal words|once spoken by a great man, moi.

And I quote, "All good|things must come to an end,

"preferably in|a humongous explosion. "

Let's pop this beach ball.

Ten! Nine!

Eight!

There's no one here whose|thoughts can't be read.

No one, except me!

Matt Groening

Matthew Abraham Groening ( ( listen) GRAY-ning; born February 15, 1954) is an American cartoonist, writer, producer, animator, and voice actor. He is the creator of the comic strip Life in Hell (1977–2012) and the television series The Simpsons (1989–present), Futurama (1999–2003, 2008–2013), and the upcoming Disenchantment (2018). The Simpsons is the longest-running U.S. primetime-television series in history and the longest-running U.S. animated series and sitcom. Groening made his first professional cartoon sale of Life in Hell to the avant-garde Wet magazine in 1978. At its peak, the cartoon was carried in 250 weekly newspapers. Life in Hell caught the attention of James L. Brooks. In 1985, Brooks contacted Groening with the proposition of working in animation for the Fox variety show The Tracey Ullman Show. Originally, Brooks wanted Groening to adapt his Life in Hell characters for the show. Fearing the loss of ownership rights, Groening decided to create something new and came up with a cartoon family, the Simpson family, and named the members after his own parents and sisters—while Bart was an anagram of the word brat. The shorts would be spun off into their own series The Simpsons, which has since aired 639 episodes. In 1997, Groening and former Simpsons writer David X. Cohen developed Futurama, an animated series about life in the year 3000, which premiered in 1999, running for four years on Fox, then picked up by Comedy Central for additional seasons. Groening is currently developing a new series for Netflix titled Disenchantment, which is set to premiere in 2018. Groening has won 12 Primetime Emmy Awards, ten for The Simpsons and two for Futurama as well as a British Comedy Award for "outstanding contribution to comedy" in 2004. In 2002, he won the National Cartoonist Society Reuben Award for his work on Life in Hell. He received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on February 14, 2012. more…
