Fry was in the employee lounge. It was his duty to clean it up after Bender's party last night. Beer was everywhere. He was currently trying to get the vacuum cleaner to work.
"C'mon," Fry said, "Work for me, how else am I supposed to clean up this mess."
"No," responded the vacuum cleaner.
"You suck," Fry said, very agitated.
"I know," said the vacuum cleaner.
Fry was about to make another comment when he heard the Professor scream. Leela walked in and looked at Fry.
"What did you do?" she asked Fry.
"Nothing," Fry replied.
"Nibbler probably tried to eat the professor again," Leela said casually, as if this happened often. "Go check on the professor. I'll take care of this room."
As Fry walked out, he heard Leela shout as she kicked the vacuum, and it suddenly turned on.
Fry walked into the Professor's lab. An entire wall was torn off. Highly toxic chemicals were thrown all over the place. There was a fire slowly spreading. And Zapp Brannigan was standing in a corner with Kif Kroker.
"Everything's normal," Fry called out to Leela, "But that guy you had sex with is here. Uhhh, Zapp Brannigan, that's his name."
Fry heard Leela shout again, and then an explosion. Probably the vacuum cleaner.
"And Kif Kroker," Fry added.
He then heard a scream, footsteps, another scream and some crashing. Amy probably screamed for Kif, and pushed Hermes down the stairs to get here.
At the same time, Leela, Amy, and Zoidberg stepped into the Professor's lab.
"Zoidberg, what are you doing here?" Fry asked.
"I…don't…know," Zoidberg said, very dazed, as if Bender had hit him. The Zoidberg looked around and ran to a pile of trash for food.
"Hello, my sensual Leela," said a voice that made Leela want to puke. "I was just explaining to the Professor about our situation. We'll be boarding with you for a while. Perhaps we could, share a room."
Leela turned to face Zapp Brannigan. "Don't make me hurt you," she growled.
"Yeah," Fry added, "Before, she heard your name and kicked a vacuum cleaner. It exploded."
Zapp put his hand on Leela's shoulder and began to speak. He didn't get far before Leela kicked. He was then lying on the floor in pain, his hands between his legs.
"Ohhh my," the Professor said, and looked up from Zapp, "Zapp and Kif will stay here as the crew tries to fix the ship. Who wants to give Zapp and Kif a tour of the building?"
The professor looked at Amy. She was kissing Kif, oblivious to anything going on. Fry was holding Leela back from killing Zapp, and not doing very well. Bender came in and helped Fry.
This left Zoidberg to give a tour to Zapp Brannigan. But before that could happen, the Professor went to find an ice pack.
Zapp and Zoidberg were walking through the hallway. Zoidberg was giving a tour, and Zapp was interested in anything involving Leela. Zoidberg stepped into a dark room and turned on a light. They saw a huge machine in front of them.
It was a beige color machine, shaped like a cube. Multi-colored lights blinked on and off on it. It had a few levers and an antenna on it. In silver letters it said, "Mind-Machine".
"Leela once used this," Zoidberg said. He was trying to give a good tour, because he thought Zapp might have anchovies.
"Great, let's try it," Zapp said, walking past the dander signs the professor had put up. Zapp and Zoidberg each put on a helmet and Zapp turned it on. He pushed the energy level higher and higher. Danger alarms went off but Zapp ignored. Suddenly, he and Zoidberg blacked out.
