Futurama: The Beast With A Billion Backs Page #2

Listen up, everyone.

I know you've all been extremely worried

about the cosmic anomaly.

The what? Oh, right.

But there's good news.

We're all going to learn more about it

at a scientific conference.

like a city made of marshmallow.

Welcome. I am the pickled head

of Stephen Hawking on a way-cool rocket.

Black hole Hawking?

Wow, if I knew I was going to meet you,

I would have done something

with my hair.

You should have.

In conclusion, I understand

nothing about the anomaly,

even after cashing the huge check I got

for writing a book about it.

I know this anomaly is terrifying.

But as scientists, is it not our sworn duty

to seek out knowledge,

even at the cost of our very lives?

No.

I say we must mount an expedition

to the anomaly forthwith.

I agree.

Wernstrom!

Professor Farnsworth is correct.

Only a manned mission can...

Don't listen to that crackpot!

But I'm agreeing with you.

I'll make you eat those words, you moron!

I volunteer to lead the expedition.

I have a squad of graduate students

eager to risk their lives

for a letter of recommendation.

Your squad sucks bosons!

My team is twice as qualified

and three times as expendable.

- Yeah!

- Yeah!

Oh, tough talk for someone

with only one Fields Medal.

Ooh!

Ooh!

Wernstrom, I ought to...

I didn't know I could do that.

Now quiet down

and settle this like men of science.

Very well.

Let Deathball begin!

- Go, Planet Express!

- Go even more, my team!

Leela, header!

Ow!

Bust those balls!

Hooray! We're equally good!

Come on, Bender! Your grandmother

could push harder than that!

No crap.

My grandmother was a bulldozer.

And thus metal man defeated meat man.

The end.

Come here, winner!

Come here, loser!

Colleen, what are you doing?

My face is over here.

This is my boyfriend, silly!

- I thought I was your boyfriend.

- You are.

- Well, how can you have two boyfriends?

- Oh, I don't. I have five.

Fry, meet Chu, Bolt, Ndulu, and Shlomo.

- Greetings.

- Pleasure.

But... But...

Shlomo and Ndulu

will help you move your stuff

into my apartment tonight.

Welcome to the relationship, buddy!

Hmm?

There's my butterscotch.

Congratulations, deathballers!

We've won the right

to explore the anomaly!

What? I thought

I was playing for my freedom!

No.

Now, I've often said "good news"

when sending you

on a mission of extreme danger.

So when I say this anomaly is dangerous,

you can imagine

how dangerous I really think it is.

Not dangerous at all?

- Actually, quite dangerous indeed.

- That is quite dangerous!

Indeed. Now stop shilly-shallying!

Prep the ship and line up

for your preflight coffee enemas!

Warning. The enema you are about
