Accidentally frozen, pizza-deliverer Fry wakes up 1,000 years in the future. He is taken in by his sole descendant, an elderly and addled scientist who owns a small cargo delivery service. Among the other crew members are Capt. Leela, accountant Hermes, intern Amy, obnoxious robot Bender and lobsterlike moocher "Dr." Zoidberg.

When the professor orders a late-model robot at a trade show, Bender seeks an upgrade.

A new group, Fathers Against Rude Television (or F.A.R.T.), protests Bender's character on the soap opera "All My Circuits."

Fry comes to regret making a deal with the devil to win Leela's heart.

Fry learns he has a tattoo of Bender that has universal consequences; Bender undergoes mind control by the new owners of Planet Express.
