The crew go to watch a supernova, and Fry puts metal in the microwave, which causes
blueness to engulf him. It meets the red from the supernova and the crew travels back in
time. In the absense of sattelite navigation, the ship crashes in Roswell, New Mexico.
The year is 1947. Bender is hurled foward and breaks into thousands of pieces. The crew
and Bender's head leave Zoidberg to pick up the pieces. He is captured and Benders body
parts are siezed. The professor's says that they'll need a new microwave to go back to
the future, and the portal will close in 24 hours. He and Leela dress up in 50's clothes
and go to try and find one. Fry goes to an army base, where he meets his grandfather,
Enis. He saves him from a truck, which was actually going to turn, and takes him away
from the base, not wanting him to get hurt and stop Fry from existing. Zoidberg,
meanwhile, is interrogated by President Truman and has an autopsy performed on him. Fry
meets his grandmother Mildred. He takes Enis to the middle of nowhere to protect him and
drives off, but it turns out to be a nucleur test range. Fry continues to exist, and goes
to see Mildred. He walks her home, and, thinking she can't be his grandmother sleeps with
her. Next morning, the disgusted crew inform him that she was his grandmother, and he is
his own grandfather. Not caring about time anymore, the crew attack the army base, steal a microwave dish and rescue Zoidberg.
They go home. Bender falls into the desert. 1055 years later, the crew get Bender
from the desert.
Quotes:
Fry: Hey, Which crazy thing happening are you guys screaming about?
Officer: General, in all my years of covering top secret discoveries with sheets, I've never dramitically revealed anything as shocking as this. Dun, dun, dunn! The debris from an alien spaceship!
(Zoidberg is revealed to the general) Zoidberg: Hello! General: Eeeurgh! Zoidberg: So, what are you guys doing tonight? I'm up for whatever.
Farnsworth: You musn't interfere with the past! Don't do anything that affects anything! Unless it turns out you were supposed to do it, in which case, for the love of God, don't not do it!
Fry: Are you crazy?! You almost got yourself run over! Enis: I did? Then I sure am lucky you knocked me on to this pile of rusty bayonets. Bender: Fry! Stop interfering with history! I don't wanna have to memorize a bunch of new kings when I get back!
Truman: What's your mission. Are you planning to make some king of alien-human hybrid? Zoidberg: Are you coming on to me? Truman: Hot crackers, I take exception to that! Zoidberg: I'm not hearing a 'no'... Truman: Dirts to this space-crab! If we want information, we'll have to do us an old-fashioned alien autopsy.
(A guy comes up to Zoidberg with a saw) Zoidberg: Hooray!
Fry: Won't that change history? Professor: Oh, a lesson in not changing history from mister 'I'm-my-own-grandfather'!
