Hermes

That's it, Fry! For a guy who's not too bright, you're too damn bright!

Now get out!!! And don't come back until someone finds a use for a million watt idiot!!

[Fry sulks out of the room, melting the door on the way out. Exterior of a trailer park, night. There is a sign that says "Basura Blanca TRAILER FOR ESTATES" on it. Interior of the trailer where Bev lives in. Ben is tucked in bed while Bev bids him goodnight]

Mom, will I ever get to see Dad again?

BBev

No, he died yesterday. Rust monsters ate his face. Sweet dreams.

[She bashes the light switch off and leaves. Ben whimpers. Suddenly, a familiar shadow falls on his blanket and he hears a tapping on the window]

[whispering] Psst, quit whimpering or ya don't get kidnapped!

Dad!

My lucky pants!

Hermes

They don't look so lucky to me.

They are too lucky! I was wearing them when I found a dime in my ear, when I got a free subscription to Redbook, and when I first met Leela.

Aw! Also, oh, Lord.

Also, they're my only pants.

You wore the same pants for a thousand years? No wonder they made a run for it.

Hermes

Film? Who uses film? We've had digital cameras for a thousand years!

Digital? [spits] No digital camera can capture the warmth and grain o' good, ol' film.

How can you even tell? Your eyes are digital cameras.

It's been quite a journey. I dropped out of school, joined a gang, took money from a loan shark, and fell into a spiral of despair, addiction, and discount prostitution.

Hermes

Mon, you had one hell of a day.

[upset] Do you think they're...dead?

Hermes

No, no. I choose to believe they're alive in some other dimension. Screamin' in agony. [Amy wipes away a tear.]

I hope so.

[Bender is sat looking miserable at the table in the Planet Express employee lounge, whilst Fry, Leela, Amy, Hermes and Zoidberg are sat watching the TV.]

Bender, come join us, we're watching Rear Window!

I used to stick my rear out the window...

If you prefer, we could watch Behind the Music.

My behind used to make music...

Hermes

Backdraft is on.

Even my ass wouldn't watch that.

[Fry has pledged to watch every season of every TV show ever made]

Hermes Conrad

Without Fry’s interruptions, efficiency is up thirty-two perc— Mmm!

[Hermes draws the line going down as Fry enters the room]

Well, my butt's numb and my remote hand is dead, but all I have left is the final season of All My Circuits.

Which final season? They've been cancelled, like, three or four times.

Pfft, Loserama.

The final final season, from 10 years ago. I wonder how many episodes were in it?

Hmm, twelve… No. Thirteen thousand and twenty.

[gasps] Thirteen thousand and twenty? I’ll never make it! I’m sorry, Leela. I’ll never be able to watch enough TV to make you proud of me. [sobs]

[sighs] It might actually be possible. But… no.

What? What is it?

It’s risky, but we have a technology now that allows you to watch all the episodes in one continuous stretch. We call it… bingeing.

Hermes

Now, hold on. Xmas isn't for a week. Until then, we've got non-stop busy work.

Oh, fuff! Let's stop pretending we do anything around here. Everyone, take the week off and be with your so-called loved ones!

Really?

Hermes

I forgot I had loved ones!

It's a Human Resources miracle!

Hermes

Hello, madame, is the Voodoo HQ?

RGRobot Gypsy

You do voodoo?

Hermes

You misconstrue. Who do voodoo at the HQ?

RGRobot Gypsy

I'll tell you.

[about Hermes' voodoo vaccine] What bunch of mumbo-gumboǃ Anything I can't understand is fakeǃ [LaBarbara gives him the vaccine; he immediately cheers up] Ah, that's betterǃ Hermes, my friend, I owe you an apology for being so anti-voodoo. It may seem bat-whack crazy to a layman, but I see now that voodoo methods are built on centuries of brilliant scholarship.

Hermes

It's okay, Professor. And it's understandable. After all, any sufficiently advanced magic is indistinguishable from science.
