1. People, as company bureaucrat,
Copy !req
2. I will today be conducting
the annual performance review.
Copy !req
3. With a twist.
Copy !req
4. Oh, no. The firing tie.
Copy !req
5. Correct. I will be
evaluating each of you,
Copy !req
6. and the Iowest-rated employee,
possibly Zoidberg,
Copy !req
7. will be fired at sundown.
Zoidberg.
Copy !req
8. CIassic Hermes.
Copy !req
9. Let the interviews begin.
Good Iuck,
everybody but Zoidberg.
Copy !req
10. My primary duties?
Copy !req
11. Well, I assist the Professor
in whatever important research
Copy !req
12. he happens to be engaged in.
Copy !req
13. Yes, sir, I will be sure
to snore that
science Iamp right away.
Copy !req
14. Now, Leela,
couldn't we just
fire you
Copy !req
15. and have Fry or
Bender fly the ship?
Copy !req
16. Not if you stand on their
air hose much longer.
Copy !req
17. Noted.
Copy !req
18. My job?
Toilets 'n' boilers,
boilers 'n' toilets.
Copy !req
19. Plus that one boiling toilet.
Copy !req
20. Fire me, iffen you dare.
Copy !req
21. Now, then, while many
of you do half-ass jobs
Copy !req
22. and the rest do jobs
whose ass ratio ranges
from 42% to a mere 11 %,
Copy !req
23. only the most pathetically
useless employee
will be fired today.
Copy !req
24. And that employee is . . .
Copy !req
25. Hermes Conrad.
Copy !req
26. What?
No way!
Copy !req
27. Hermes, no!
Copy !req
28. Yes. My performance review
proves the main
drag on our profit
Copy !req
29. is the time
I waste on
performance reviews.
Copy !req
30. But you can't
fire yourself now.
Copy !req
31. We were just getting
to know each other.
Copy !req
32. I've already notified
the central bureaucracy.
Copy !req
33. They'll be here
two seconds ago.
Copy !req
34. I suppose you're here
to tell me to pack it in?
Copy !req
35. Only if you buy
me dinner first.
Copy !req
36. I'm being fired.
Copy !req
37. I don't think it's appropriate
to joke around like that.
Copy !req
38. You're right, Hermes.
Copy !req
39. Meet Mark 7-G,
the machine
who's replacing you.
Copy !req
40. I'm Mark 7-G, the machine
who's replacing you.
Copy !req
41. Will you be
conducting an exit interview?
Copy !req
42. Well, I wouldn't say no
to a Iittle
friendly debriefing.
Copy !req
43. Bureaucrat Conrad,
you are ordered
to relieve yourself of duty.
Copy !req
44. Sounds like a party.
Copy !req
45. Goodbye.
Copy !req
46. Well, this is it.
Copy !req
47. But I want you to
know working here
Copy !req
48. has been
the experience of a Iifetime.
Copy !req
49. Off you go.
Copy !req
50. So, I hear you're a machine . . .
Ow!
Copy !req
51. Traitor!
Copy !req
52. My friend's ample tuchus
is barely out the door,
Copy !req
53. and you're already schmoozing
up to his replacement?
Copy !req
54. Um, Zoidberg?
Copy !req
55. I don't think
Hermes really Iiked you.
Copy !req
56. In fact, he hated you more
than anyone ever hated anyone.
Copy !req
57. What, you mean
the remarks and the hits?
That was just friend teasing.
Copy !req
58. Oy.
Copy !req
59. You don't understand.
Copy !req
60. He was the only one
who cared enough to insult me.
Copy !req
61. I insult you, you fat sack.
Copy !req
62. Sure, when it's convenient.
But Hermes was
always there for me.
Copy !req
63. And now he's gone,
thanks to you, Mr.
Bigshot 7-G.
Copy !req
64. I'll never see Hermes again.
Copy !req
65. On the bright side,
I'll never see Zoidberg again.
Copy !req
66. There, there, husband.
I made your favorite,
curried goat.
Copy !req
67. It better be spicy.
Copy !req
68. Well played.
Copy !req
69. Ows.
Copy !req
70. Ah.
Copy !req
71. Fire.
Copy !req
72. It burns! It burns!
Copy !req
73. Not bad.
Needs a Iittle hot sauce.
Copy !req
74. I just don't know
how we'll get by.
Copy !req
75. Then I guess this
wouldn't be a good time
to tell you that I'm pregnant.
Copy !req
76. What?
Copy !req
77. And you're not the father.
Copy !req
78. No!
Copy !req
79. I'm just joking, husband.
Copy !req
80. See now? Things don't seem
so bad anymore, do they?
Copy !req
81. You're right.
Thank you, LaBarbara.
Copy !req
82. Oh, also, I wrecked the car.
Copy !req
83. This here is a mugging!
Hand over your skin.
Copy !req
84. My ebony splendor?
Me don't think so.
Copy !req
85. I said hand it over.
I'm hungry!
Copy !req
86. For God's sake, woman,
just give him your skin!
Copy !req
87. Can't you see he's crazy?
Copy !req
88. You calling me crazy?
Copy !req
89. Ain't nothing crazy
about me but my brain.
Right, brain?
Copy !req
90. Right!
No, not you, right brain.
Right, left brain? Right!
Copy !req
91. Okay, then.
Copy !req
92. Do something, Hermes.
Copy !req
93. I can't!
When I fight machinery,
machinery always wins!
Copy !req
94. Freeze, bagwad.
Copy !req
95. You're under arrest for
attempted epidermicide.
Copy !req
96. I'm coming for you, man.
Ain't no jail can hold me.
Copy !req
97. That's why
you're going straight
to the electromagnetic chair.
Copy !req
98. And then I'm-a stab it.
Copy !req
99. Stop! It's driving me sane!
Copy !req
100. Hey, Bender,
you should
become an executioner.
Copy !req
101. You could kill humans
and wear a cool hood.
Copy !req
102. Nah, I like my
victims to know who did it.
Copy !req
103. Hermes! Boy,
am I indifferent to see you.
Copy !req
104. We need to talk. AIone.
Copy !req
105. Okay, Hermes. Sure.
Copy !req
106. Fry, could you come in here
Copy !req
107. and help me rub on this
new scented body oil?
Copy !req
108. In a second.
I'm eavesdropping.
Copy !req
109. Please, Fry?
Copy !req
110. Leela punishes me
when I don't use enough.
Copy !req
111. I said not now!
Copy !req
112. Sure, I know a guy.
Copy !req
113. Yuri here runs
the most sanitary
Copy !req
114. surgical implant
parlor in Filthytown.
Copy !req
115. So, I hear you're an expert in
the shadowy field
of body augmentation.
Copy !req
116. I am expert in shadowy field
of many things.
Copy !req
117. I need something
that'll make me
less inferior
Copy !req
118. to today's modern machinery.
Can you help me?
Copy !req
119. No problem.
I prepare operating room.
Copy !req
120. Oh, honey, I'm home!
Copy !req
121. Pops?
Copy !req
122. Is that
a harpoon in your chest?
Copy !req
123. Yes. And I'm happy to see you.
Copy !req
124. And the best part is,
Copy !req
125. the whole package fits neatly
in the space where
my giblets used to be.
Copy !req
126. I'm kind of a harpoon snob,
and let me say,
that thing is gorgeous.
Copy !req
127. But do you really
need chest artillery?
Copy !req
128. It's not just a weapon.
Copy !req
129. It's the bureaucrat's
best friend. Observe.
Copy !req
130. Oh, Mark 7-G?
Copy !req
131. Would you mind
fetching that carton
from the top shelf?
Copy !req
132. Pitiful and sickening.
Copy !req
133. Okay, Iittle man,
Copy !req
134. let a professional bureaucrat
show you how it's done.
Copy !req
135. My best wasn't good enough.
Copy !req
136. I'll need my
personnel file, please.
Copy !req
137. Welcome back, old friend.
I missed you terribly.
Copy !req
138. You do everything terribly.
And I'm not your friend.
Copy !req
139. Good old Hermes.
Copy !req
140. When he stops insulting,
that's when I worry.
Copy !req
141. Oh, dear!
Copy !req
142. I was Ieaning over the sink
eating pureed clams
Copy !req
143. when my teeth
fell in the disposal.
Copy !req
144. Scruffy,
could you retrieve them?
Copy !req
145. 'Taint a boiler nor a toilet.
Pass.
Copy !req
146. I'll fetch my hand tools.
Copy !req
147. Hand tools?
Why don't you get an
Copy !req
148. extendo-arm implant,
like mine?
Copy !req
149. Oh, no. No more implants.
Copy !req
150. I don't want to end up a cold,
emotionless machine like you.
Copy !req
151. That's sweet, Hermes.
Copy !req
152. Maybe I should
get an extendo-arm.
Copy !req
153. How long will it take to
install an extendo-arm?
Copy !req
154. I have golf game
in half-hour, so
Copy !req
155. half-hour.
Copy !req
156. Thank you, Hermes.
Copy !req
157. I don't know. It seems
like a lot of trouble
Copy !req
158. to cut off your arm
just to snake a drain.
Copy !req
159. It's not just a drain snake.
Copy !req
160. It comes with a set of
interchangeable accessories.
Copy !req
161. Jackhammer,
Copy !req
162. vegetable peeler,
pipe-bending jig.
Copy !req
163. A machine that can bend?
No way.
Copy !req
164. But, Hermes,
old friend, didn't you say
Copy !req
165. you were through
with the implants?
Copy !req
166. Oh, don't be
such a spoilsport.
Copy !req
167. Such a mild insult.
Copy !req
168. That's not my Hermes.
Speaking of,
Copy !req
169. what happened to your
cut-off body parts, anyhow?
Copy !req
170. Right here.
Copy !req
171. I was going to donate them
to the Salvation Air Force,
Copy !req
172. but they're starting to rot.
Copy !req
173. Then I'll just take them and,
throw them away,
shall I, why not?
Copy !req
174. So,
friend, welcome to my home.
I'm very proud of it.
Copy !req
175. But I want to
hear what you think.
Copy !req
176. "Oh, mon, I'm Hermes,
and I think it stinks in here
Copy !req
177. "like a green snake,
or something else
that's Jamaican."
Copy !req
178. Good one at my expense,
Hermes.
Copy !req
179. Well, I must admit
it's not bad.
Copy !req
180. And it will cut two
or three hours a day
off my cornrowing routine.
Copy !req
181. Yes, our Iives will
never be the same.
Copy !req
182. Darn it! I'll be right back.
Copy !req
183. Hermes, oh, you foolish man,
what do you need
a Cylon eye for?
Copy !req
184. Now, calm down, dear.
Copy !req
185. You know, you look
even hotter in infrared.
Copy !req
186. Husband, some things were
not meant to be cylonned.
Copy !req
187. Now, you must promise me
you won't be
getting any more upgrades.
Copy !req
188. I promise.
Copy !req
189. Wow.
Copy !req
190. Nice shiny metal ass, Hermes.
Copy !req
191. But . . .
Copy !req
192. So, with all these implants,
what exactly
Copy !req
193. is the difference
between you and a robot?
Copy !req
194. I still have one thing
no robot shall ever have.
Copy !req
195. A good old
flesh-and-blood human brain.
Copy !req
196. Yes, a big, smart brain.
Copy !req
197. Not like dum-dum Zoidberg,
right, Hermes? Right?
Copy !req
198. Mecha-Hermes has no interest
in such nonsense.
Copy !req
199. Mr. Conrad, did you remember
to save the trimmings for me?
Copy !req
200. Yes, yes, Doctor. Right here.
Copy !req
201. Wait. You're not eating my
discarded flesh, are you?
Copy !req
202. How could you even
ask such a thing?
Copy !req
203. Of course I tried eating you,
but your flesh was too spicy.
Copy !req
204. Thanks to years of LaBarbara's
curried goat, no doubt.
Copy !req
205. But my mecha-stomach
has no need of goat.
Copy !req
206. Mecha-Hermes has spoken!
Copy !req
207. Mecha-Hermes
still wants to know
Copy !req
208. what you're doing
with his pieces.
Copy !req
209. Something wonderful.
Copy !req
210. Give it way up
for Dr. Zoidberg
and Iittle Hermes.
Copy !req
211. Hello. Hello.
Copy !req
212. So, Iittle Hermes,
did you hear I've
taken up running?
Copy !req
213. "Yeah, from
restaurant to restaurant.
Ho-ho, mon.
Copy !req
214. "Seriously, though,
have you lost weight?"
Copy !req
215. Yes.
Copy !req
216. "Looks like you
found it again."
Copy !req
217. Oh, boy.
That was quite a zinger,
old friend.
Copy !req
218. "I'm not your friend.
Copy !req
219. "I'm out of here the second
you let go of my bowels."
Copy !req
220. Thank you,
Iadies and gentlemen.
I'll be here all week.
Copy !req
221. "You've been warned, people."
Copy !req
222. He's good.
Copy !req
223. I can only see one of his
four mouth tendrils moving.
Copy !req
224. "So, Mr. Conrad,
did you enjoy the show?"
Copy !req
225. AIas, no.
Copy !req
226. Seeing what I once was
filled me with regret.
Copy !req
227. You could always
undo your implants.
Copy !req
228. Regret that I still
have one human part.
Copy !req
229. That meat puppet disgusts me.
It's time for
the ultimate upgrade.
Copy !req
230. But the only thing you
haven't upgraded
is your brain.
Copy !req
231. Exactly.
Copy !req
232. Oops.
Copy !req
233. Robot brain implant? Never.
No one in right
mind would do that.
Copy !req
234. A freshly dug robot grave.
Copy !req
235. Let's exhume-a-zoom-zoom.
Copy !req
236. Step aside.
Copy !req
237. Bing-reka! The brain circuit.
Copy !req
238. Come, fellows.
Let's go home and install it.
Copy !req
239. Enjoy eternity
without your brain,
anonymous dead robot.
Copy !req
240. So, Iittle Hermes,
are you ready
to watch some brain surgery?
Copy !req
241. "I'm ready to shoot myself
if it'll get me off your Iap."
Copy !req
242. Open the dome
and unleash
the power of the heavens!
Copy !req
243. Ah, now I can
see what I'm doing.
Commence the operation!
Copy !req
244. Terminate the operation.
Copy !req
245. LaBarbara? Dwight?
Copy !req
246. I just got an urgent
text from Iittle Hermes.
Copy !req
247. You can't do this thing.
You don't even know
whose brain that is.
Copy !req
248. It doesn't matter.
Copy !req
249. Any robot brain
will improve my fitness
as a husband and father.
Copy !req
250. You can't be
a husband and father
Copy !req
251. if you don't
have a wife and son.
Copy !req
252. Wait.
Copy !req
253. I care about you
too much to lose you.
Copy !req
254. But my new robot brain won't.
Commence the operation.
Copy !req
255. Well you'll
have to commence it
without me, Hermes.
Copy !req
256. And commence
Iiving without me.
Copy !req
257. Because I will commence
divorce proceedings.
Copy !req
258. Oh, I hope to God
I'm using that word correctly.
Copy !req
259. Oh, I can't do this, Hermes.
Copy !req
260. Your wife's moving plea
has made me realize
Copy !req
261. you might have
Iitigious survivors.
Copy !req
262. Oh, thank you, Professor.
Copy !req
263. Come now.
Copy !req
264. Let's go try that
Korean noodle place
you were telling me about.
Copy !req
265. There will be no noodles
until the
operation is complete.
Copy !req
266. You can't force me to operate.
Copy !req
267. Maybe not, but perhaps
I can encourage you
Copy !req
268. with my encouragement drill.
Copy !req
269. Wait. I'll perform
the surgery.
Copy !req
270. You? With those clumsy claws?
Copy !req
271. It's true, old friend.
Copy !req
272. My claws are too clumsy
for such delicate work.
Copy !req
273. "But mine aren't.
Copy !req
274. "You, mon,
give me that robot brain."
Copy !req
275. And you, metal guy, Iie down.
Copy !req
276. Zoidberg, this makes no sense.
Why are you helping him?
Copy !req
277. And what's that catchy beat?
Copy !req
278. I'll tell you. Two, three . . .
Copy !req
279. I was lonesome for my friend
a minute ago
Copy !req
280. When a happy thought
dispelled my woe
Copy !req
281. And I felt perhaps he'd be
a bit less dull
Copy !req
282. "if I sliced up
his cyborg skull"
Copy !req
283. He wants a brain
Copy !req
284. He wants a robot brain
Copy !req
285. Another brain
Copy !req
286. Let's see if he feels pain
Copy !req
287. A brand-new brain
Copy !req
288. It might drive him insane
Copy !req
289. He wants a brain
Copy !req
290. He wants a robot brain
Copy !req
291. Wah-ooh
Wah-wah-ooh
Copy !req
292. Does anyone
else find it freaky
Copy !req
293. that Zoidberg is singing
harmony with himself?
Copy !req
294. Oh, Ioosen up, Amy.
Copy !req
295. My condolences, LaBarbara.
Copy !req
296. I hope you find some comfort
Copy !req
297. in staring at this throbbing
mass of nerve tissue.
Copy !req
298. Oh, he's gone!
Copy !req
299. Oh, Zoidberg,
what have you done?
Copy !req
300. I'll tell you what I've done.
I've brought
your husband back.
Copy !req
301. Pops.
Copy !req
302. Sweet reawakenin'
of me, a Jamaican-in.
Copy !req
303. Hermes, you're alive.
Copy !req
304. And practically rhyming.
Copy !req
305. Wife, Son, I am so sorry.
Copy !req
306. Once I started
upgrading myself,
I lost all control.
Copy !req
307. But I see now
Copy !req
308. that if you
can't be man enough
with your own parts,
Copy !req
309. no amount of
machinery will help.
Copy !req
310. Not so fast.
Copy !req
311. But faster than that!
Copy !req
312. It's that insane robot,
Roberto.
Copy !req
313. Quick, Hermes, the keys.
Copy !req
314. I left them in my other body.
Copy !req
315. Oh, yeah.
Copy !req
316. And I'm-a stick
them in your pancreas
till I find one that opens it.
Copy !req
317. I'm gonna peel off your skin
and eat it like
pencil shavings.
Copy !req
318. Thank God Zoidberg
didn't reattach my nerves.
Copy !req
319. That's tasty. Too tasty.
Copy !req
320. It burns. It . . . It burns!
Copy !req
321. What's happening?
Copy !req
322. The spicy curried goat.
Copy !req
323. Hermes' skin is so
saturated with it
Copy !req
324. that it's
dissolving the bad robot.
Copy !req
325. In the end, all his implants
Copy !req
326. were no match for my wife's
reckless seasoning.
Copy !req
327. Now, husband, don't you
think you owe Zoidberg
Copy !req
328. a thank-you for
saving you from yourself?
Copy !req
329. But I hate him.
Copy !req
330. Honey, we all do.
But fair is fair.
Copy !req
331. Zoidberg, I . . .
I know we have
never been friends,
Copy !req
332. but I appreciate what you did.
Copy !req
333. Thank you.
Copy !req
334. Never been friends?
Copy !req
335. Ouch! What a zinger.
Copy !req
336. Well, here's one for you,
Mr. Not-my-friend Conrad.
Copy !req
337. You acted like a big jerk.
Copy !req
338. You were selfish and stupid,
and you don't deserve
Copy !req
339. a wife like LaBarbara
or a friend like me.
Copy !req
340. It's funny because it's mean.
Copy !req
341. Thank you,
Iadies and gentlemen.
I'll be here forever.
Copy !req
342. Wah-ooh
Wah-wah-ooh
Copy !req
343. He's doing it again.
Copy !req
