- C4 PREMIERE 07.08.01, 18:00


DEFINITE CUTS BY C4     DEFINITE CUTS BY SKY
--------------------------------------------------
At the Claw-Claw showdown, Leela asks the king of the planet to stop the fight:
KING         Listen lady, as you can plainly see I’m a highly desirable male,
groaning with jelly, and I embrace a life of celibacy…
--------------------------------------------------
During Claw-Claw, some violence was censored by C4:
(A couple of seconds of the fight, when Fry has the nutcracker around Zoidberg’s neck from behind, are cut)
BENDER       Psst, Fry, take a dive!
(Close-up of Zoidberg sweating and choking – the crowd chants ‘Claw-Clacch’. Or is it ‘Claw-Plach’?)
--------------------------------------------------
Sky and C4 censored this different ways:
(Fry has just made a rousing speech to the crustacean people, about how he and Zoidberg will always remain friends – but Zoidberg cuts Fry’s arm off:)      


     SKY
FRY              I’ll kill you! You bastard!
(hits Zoidberg with arm a couple of times,
before a close-up of him hitting Zoidberg)   

     C4
FRY              I’ll kill you! You
bastard! [sound dipped instead]
(hits Zoidberg with arm a couple of times, before a close-up of him hitting Zoidberg)
--------------------------------------------------
When the mating frenzy happens:
(All the crustacean couples jump into the water.
It starts bubbling and a green goo – or is it jelly? – rises to the surface) (See framegrab below)
FRY / LEELA / BENDER      Eew! / Eww! / My god!

ZOIDBERG                          
The frenzy!
--------------------------------------------------
As PX walk away through hoards of seagulls:
(Zoidberg injects the injured Fry with morphine – a close-up shows that it is St Jonah’s Morphine For Children)
FRY                        Ow! (suddenly looks happy and pain-free)

ZOIDBERG             The frenzy is over.
How will I ever get rid of my male jelly now?
FRY                        (handing him his severed arm)  I'll lend you this. [Line cut by C4 too]
