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.

Al Gore's head holds an emergency summit in Kyoto, Japan, to deal with global warming caused by robot emissions.

Fry spots his petrified dog, Seymour, among the artifacts in an exhibit at the Museum of Natural History; Bender perceives Seymour as a threat to his friendship with Fry and gets his own robo-puppy.

Prodigal sons return to start a competing delivery service that threatens the existence of Planet Express.

After eating a flag, Dr. Zoidberg is accused of desecration and sentenced to death, prompting his people to invade Earth and enslave its people.
