Chapter 2: Not-So-Friendly Suggestions

"Oops, sorry," Fry apologized. "I forgot an 'Up'."

"But Fry, you were just saying your moves in the game! Why does that matter to me or the delivery?" Leela shouted.

"What? No, I was playing, but I read the directions right," Fry explained.

Sure enough, in front of them was the destination written on the package. "Let's go then."

Inside, Fry was greeted by… Chefs? He put the package on a table and left.

Back on the ship, he told Leela about the strange destination. She thought about telling him about what she saw while flying there, but he became immersed in a new game: Space Invaders this time. Leela rolled her eyes.

At Planet Express…

"Professor, why did you send us to a bakery?" Leela queried.

"To give them the knife sharpeners they ordered, of course!" the Professor answered. "You can't have dull knives at a bakery!"

"It doesn't seem like lives depend on knife sharpeners…" Leela said.

"Lives? Who said anything about lives? I said knives depend on it!" the Professor replied simply. "You should get your ears checked!"

"Yeah, sure," Leela said sullenly.

"What?"

Leela drove back to her apartment. She sat down on her armchair and turned on the TV. Just to be safe, she turned it up loud.

She heard a knock at the door. She got up and answered it to find Fry.

"What are you doing here?" Leela said.

"Oh… I dunno," he answered.

As she was asking him to leave, he ran over to the TV.

"Oh boy! You have Pac-Man on this thing!"

Leela just rolled her eyes. Then a thought came to her: she could tell Fry about what she saw! He would believe her for sure.

"Fry," Leela began, "you didn't notice anything strange while we were flying, did you?"

"No, why?" he replied.

"Well, I saw something strange by one of the asteroids," she explained. "It was smaller than an asteroid, but it was glowing or something…"

"You're hallucinating." Fry said bluntly. "You should get your eyes, er- eye checked."

Fry started to leave. Leela sighed as Fry smacked into the door on his way out.
