Love and Rocket

Bender talks to the ship It's valentine's day, and the Professor has given the crew new uniforms. They go to woo their latest clients, a company called romanticorp. There, they discover they will be delivering love hearts, and Fry is determined to fing one that expresses perfectly his feelings for Leela. The Professor makes improvements to the ship, also giving it a new personality, which he turns to female setting. Bender and the ship start dating. Unfortunately, he quickly gets sick of her and starts dating floozies on the side. The ship catches him with two of them, but believes his lame excuses. She gradually starts to go crazy. When the crew deliver some love hearts as a peace offering to the Omicronians, they are confused and infuriated by the concept of 'wuv' and attack the ship. Bender takes this oppurtunity to dump her, and she goes into a rage and loses the battle. Later, Bender is remorseless and Leela tries to comfort her, but she decides to drive into a quasar, crushing her and Bender into a quantum singularity. She turns off the oxygen and stops the gravity, and Fry and Leela put on tanks. They decide to go up and destroy the ship's brain while Bender distracts her by melding their programming. The love hearts float through the ship, and distract Leela. Fry searches for the message. He notices that her oxygen is gone, and gives her his without her knowing. Bender, meanwhile, runs from the ship in a virtual world. Leela destroys the ship's brain, and realises what Fry has done. She manages to revive him, and he coughs up a heart that says 'U LEAVE ME BREATHLESS'. Bender's programming has been melded with the ship's, but he'll get over it. The hearts fall into the quasar and transmit romantic rays all over Earth.

Quotes:

Bender: You are one narrow minded spaceship, Planet Express Ship.
Ship: Whoa, whoa! Why should my tax money pay for art I find offensive?
Bender: Would you censor the Venus de Venus just because you can see her spewers?
Ship: Oh, it's filthy! Why not create a national endowment for strip clubs while we're at it?
Bender: Why not indeed!?

Professor: Remember, we've got to show these people we're not bitter husks of human beings who long ago abandoned hope of finding love in this lifetime. Leela, you'll have to do some acting.

Sheldon: Welcome! Oh, I'm just so excited! I'm Sheldon and this is my chief financial officer Gwen.
Gwen: For 30 years we've shared the adventure of managing Romanticorp.
Sheldon: Not to mention the adventure of marriage!
(They laugh and kiss)
Leela: Oh, you have got to be kidding! (The Professor shocks her with a cattle prod) Ow! Ow! I mean, aww, thats so sweet! (He shocks her again) Ow! I mean, aww datsh sho shweet!

Fry: Whoa! Letters like 'u' and 'r' can mean words like 'You' and 'Are.' Here, Leela! 'U R 2 Cute'.
Leela: Perhaps. What's your point?

Fry: Wow Bender, are you and the ship an item? I mean, I know you're both items but- how can you date a ship anyway? It'd be like me dating a really fat lady. And living inside her. And she'd be all like - (Makes ship noises)
Bender: Fry, in order for me to get busy at maximum efficiency, I need a girl with a big 400 ton booty!
Leela: Bender, dating your co-worker and primary mode of transportation is immoral, illogical and a violation of interstellar shipping statute 437-B.
Bender: That's what makes it so nasty!
Leela: Still, given the chance, I'd give in to urges far more shocking.

Lrrr: Bleurgh! These candies are chalky and unpleasant!
Nd-Nd: And what is this emotion you humans call "wuv"?
Lrrr: Surely it says "love"?
Nd-Nd: No, 'wuv.' With an Earth 'w.' Behold!
Lrrr: This concept of wuv confuses and infuriates us!

Zoidberg: As the candy hearts poured into the firey quasar a wonderous thing happened, why not? They vapourised into a mysitcal love radiation that spread across the universe destroying many many planets, including two gangster planets and a cowboy world. But one planet was at exactly the right distance to see the romantic rays, but not be destroyed by them. Earth! So all over the world couples stood together in joy. And me, Zoidberg! And no one could have been happier unless it would have been Valentines Day. What? It was? Hooray!
