She did it. Her boyfriend somehow gave her a night of her life.
Fry had managed to convince the Professor to let Planet Express have a prom night for Leela. When he saw that photo of Leela in her teen years alone on her prom night, he just had to help her have a proper prom. On the night of the prom, Fry puts on his blue suit and gets a purple gift box for Leela. Bender, who was reluctant to the whole prom idea, (Hermes made sure the prom was compulsory for everyone) walks into Fry's room as he finishes changing.
"Hey bender, you ready?" Fry asked. Bender rolled his eyes.
"Why did Hermes say that everyone needed to attend?" Bender asked. "I have better things to do tonight!"
"Bender, believe me, I don't like going to work at night too," Fry said, "but I'm doing this for Leela. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to pick up Leela."
"Well, you won't do things for Leela anymore after tonight." Bender said and evil laughed as Fry leaves but turns back as he hears his laugh.
"What was that, Bender?" He asked.
"Nothing!" Bender said as Fry left and he continued to laugh evilly. "Let my plan begin!"
Fry shows up at Apartment 1-I for Leela. He knocks on the door and is immediately stunned by Leela's red dress, gold necklace, and white earrings.
"Leela, you look… I don't know what to say." Fry said. Leela smiled and noticed the purple box he's holding. He takes off the cover, revealing a rose bracelet. He slips it onto her arm and they walk out hand in hand.
"You look handsome, Fry." Leela said.
"And you my love are the most beautiful goddess I've ever seen." Fry responded.
"So, What else do you have planned?" Leela asked.
"It's just you I want." Fry smirked. Leela couldn't help but smile as they made their way to Planet Express.
Prom night at Planet Express was lovely for Leela. She and Fry danced, took their photo until it's time for the judging of Prom king and queen. Fry, who hadn't seen Bender all night, excused himself to find him. Leela was announced as prom queen made her way towards the stage, which was prebuilt, as Fry found Bender with a bucket of pig's blood. He knew what he was trying to do.
"Leela, look out!" Fry pushed her out of the way as the blood dropped. Not on Leela, but on Fry. Leela, stunned by being pushed, stared at Fry in shock as the blood ruined his suit. She turns to her co-workers.
"WHAT THE HELL!" She shouted. Suddenly, she felt something hit her hard and everything went black.
Leela then heard someone calling for her. Her eye were only squinted by the light.
"No. Don't squint. It's alright."
She recognized that voice anywhere. It was Fry. She then realized what had happened. Her eye opened to see Fry, no longer covered in blood, in his normal clothes, staring at her. Her head started to hurt and when she felt it, she noticed it banaged.
"Fry?" Leela asked. "Where am I?"
"In the hospital." Fry responded.
"Why? What happened?" Leela asked.
"Last night, while you were being crowned prom queen of the Planet Express prom," Fry explained. "Bender tried to dump a bucket of pig's blood on me. I pushed you out of the way before the blood ever got on you but it landed on me instead. You tried to find out who did it, but the bucket hitted you on the head." Leela was shocked that her own friend would do something like that.
"Why did Bender do that?" Leela asked.
"He was jealous of our relationship. After you fell unconscious, while everyone else was checking on you, I confronted Bender, but he told me that he did it to keep our friendship alive. We then promised each other that we would still be friends only if we don't spend too much time with the person we love." Leela nodded in understanding.
"Well, while I think that you should have ended your friendship with him and contacted the police, I'm glad you both at least made a promise to each other." Leela said smiling. "So, what else happened after I was unconscious?"
"Well, Amy called an ambulance and they immediately rushed to the office for you. They carried you to the ambulance and drove you to the hospital." Fry said and sighed. "I'm sorry that prom was a disaster."
"I forgive you." Leela said. "I know I'll never have a proper prom, but this was honestly the best dance I've ever been to, especially after we took our photo."
"Oh, that reminds me of something." Fry said, taking out a photograph. Leela gasped in awe.
"The prom photo." She whispered as Fry began to hold her hand.
"Our prom photo." He said.
They hugged each other, knowing that despite that disaster that took place, it was the most unforgettable night of their lives.
