I don't know what you did, Fry, but once again, you screwed up! Now all the planets are gonna start cracking wise about our mamas.
I'm just glad my fat, ugly mama isn't alive to see this day.
Enough about your promiscuous mother, Hermes! We have bigger problems.
Doomsday device? Ah, now the ball's in Farnsworth's court!
[Farnsworth presses a button, revealing an arsenal of doomsday weapons.]
I suppose I could part with one and still be feared…
What do you know of this?
Not much yet, but I am a senior lecturer of physics at Globetrotter U, and I'd like to help you investigate.
You're that Bubblegum Tate?
Well, I sure ain't his grandma.
No showboarding, you atomic hot dog!
What the...? Did everything just jump around, or did my brain just scold off there for a second?
So, Leela, how about a romantic ride in one of those swan boats? They're kinda dangerous, but I finally mastered them.
Those aren't swan boats, they're swans.
Oh. That explains these boat eggs.
Don't be so hard on yourself, Fry. You lost the woman of your dreams but you still have Zoidberg. You all still have Zoidberg!
Now, how long will it take to build?
It won't be easy, Nixon. A jim-jam this complex might take months or even-
[Time skips.]
Ah, there we are. One gravity pump. Powerful enough to move the stars themselves. Now to begin the arduous task of attaching it to the ship so th-
[Time skips. The Planet Express ship is taking off with the gravity pump attached.]
Off you go, apparently.
Put me on, Professor. I wanna show Leela my skills.
Hmm. Will said skills pay the bills?
At this rate, by Tuesday it will be Thursday, by Wednesday it will be August, and by Thursday it will be the end of existence as we know it!
Fry, please try to understand: you're a man, I'm a woman. We're just too different.
All right, cool your jets, hot shot.
Come on, Leela. Why won't you go out with me? We both know there's something there.
No, I mean cool your jets. You're melting Bender's face.

The time skips are worse than ever now. Isolated spots are jumping by years at a time. Look.
Stupid senior citizens. Why should we have to pay for their Social Security benefits?
[Time skip; the boy becomes a senior citizen]
I deserve free money!
[Fry walks to the window and presses his face against the glass. As the ship gets further away from the nebula Fry sees the stars around it form an "O" in a huge message that reads "I Love You, Leela".]
That's how I must have done it! I moved the stars themselves to write her a love note in the sky.
[on intercom] Detonation in three, two, one.
No!
[The doomsday device implodes and the nebula, the stars and Fry's message disappear. Fry stares at the empty void. Enter Leela and Bender]
Did you see it? Did you see it?
The explosion?
No, not the explosion!
Then what?
[quietly] Nothing.
