Quotes 

  • Fry : [writing]  "Leela cried for her love as Fry lay dead under the heavy book case. The giant brain laughed in triumph. 'Ha ha ha!' Then, for no reason, he left Earth forever. The end." There. Now he's trapped in a book I wrote. A crummy world of plot holes and spelling errors.

    Chief Giant Brain : The big brain am winning again! I am the greetest! Mwa-ha-ha-ha! Now I am leaving Earth for no raisin!

  • [everyone on Earth except Fry is moronically stupid] 

    Fry : What are we going to do?

    Professor Hubert Farnsworth : Duh, I know, let's play the lottery.

    Amy Wong : No, let's buy internet stock.

    Dr. Zoidberg : On margin. Zoidbee wants to buy on margin.

    Hermes Conrad : [holding a board in front of his face]  Look at me. I'm invisible.

    Fry : Wait a minute, I know what's going on here. You've all become idiots.

    Bender : Hey, let's all join the Reform party.

    Everyone : Yeah.

  • Chief Giant Brain : What do you want?

    Fry : I'm here to kick your ass!

    Leela : That's Earth.

    [Fry just stares at her] 

    Leela : The planet we live on?

    Fry : I'd hate to be those guys.

  • Fry : Come on, Fry, think. Thinking... thinking...

    Chief Giant Brain : Oh, Stop that!

    Fry : Aha! Prepare to be thought at! Leela, give me a topic.

    Leela : Duh...

    Fry : Seriously, I can't think of anything.

    [He looks through a pile of books]

    Chief Giant Brain : No! It's unbearable!

  • Leela : You fight biggest brain of all.

    Fry : Even bigger than those? Holy nuts! Where would it be?

    Bender : $500, you say?

    Dr. Zoidberg : Dog food, you say?

    Dr. Zoidberg : Forgive me, my friend?

    Bender : Never!
