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.
Swept away into a space vacuum, Bender has a spiritual experience; Fry, Leela and the professor search for Bender as he floats through space.
A Wall Street power player from the 1980s replaces Professor Farnsworth as CEO of Planet Express and starts making changes.
The New New York Mets ink Leela as the first female major-league blernsball player.
Wanting to become a chef, Bender seeks mentoring from Helmut Spragel, formerly the world's greatest culinary artist.
