Proposition Infinity

"Proposition Infinity" is the ninety-second episode of Futurama, the fourth of the sixth production season and the seventh broadcast season. It is scheduled to air 8 July, 2010 on Comedy Central. It will guest star George Takei making his third Futurama appearance as himself.

Act I
New New York's walls have been hit by a mysterious vandal, who is revealed to be Bender. Bender is caught (he was vandalizing the back of URL, a police officer) and swiftly arrested. Bender calls Amy, who has been fighting with Kif all night, to bail him out of jail. Amy agrees, leaving to bail him out of jail. Arriving, Amy enters the police station with Kif, and bails Bender out. While in line to get discharged, Amy is hit on by an inmate, flirting with him. This shocks Kif, as he is a criminal, but irritates Amy. Kif tells her that she is attracted to "bad boys," which he is not. Amy disagrees, but then flirts with another inmate that actually threatens her life. Kif, being annoyed with Amy flirting with other men, tells Amy that they're through.

The break up severely upsets Amy, and to make her feel better, Leela, Fry, and Bender take her to Forbidden Planet Hollywood. Bender makes fun of her all night, telling her to shut up and such. Amy tells him to back off, saying that he should be afraid of what she did to the last person that told her to shut up: sexual intercourse. After this, Amy and Bender discover a mutual attraction for eachother and enter into a robosexual relationship, which is taboo in 3010, so they keep quiet about their relationship, even to their friends and co-workers. The co-workers grow suspicious, but think nothing of it.

While at the planet Tornadus, collecting tornado wind for the Professor's entry for the County Fair, the crew is shocked to learn that Bender and Amy are missing. They discover their clothes flying around in the tube with the tornado winds, so the Professor shuts off the machine, and when the winds go away, the crew is shocked to see Bender and Amy making love. Discovering this, Professor immediately disapproves of it. However, the rest of the crew accepts Bender and Amy's relationship, which they thank them for, as she knows she can't tell her family as they'll disapprove. This is exactly what Professor does, he calls Leo and Inez, Amy's parents. Then he calls the Robot Pastor for Bender. While at her parent's Mars ranch, Amy is saved by Fry, who poses as her new beau to get her parents off her back. Amy saves Bender from the camp that the Robot Pastor sent him to. They go back to the Planet Express building, where Bender proposes to Amy.

Act III
However, the Professor reminds them that robosexual marriage is illegal in New New York. To fight against this, Bender and Amy launch a campaign for the legalization of robosexual marriage. They launch Proposition ∞, which, in days before the election, slumps in the polls. Amy loses hope, but Bender says that they'll win due to his debate tonight against Professor Farnsworth. Bender gives a heartfelt speech, which the audience applauds for. The Professor follows with his rebuttal, saying that he was in love with a fellow scientist named Eunice, and, 43 years later, discovers her in bed with a robot. This doesn't impress the audience, which despise the Professor as he hates robosexuals because his girlfriend slept with a robot. However, he admits that she WAS a robot, named Unit, who slept with another robot. Farnsworth's heart was broken, so he took his anger out on other robosexuals. Due to him admitting the truth, the Professor withdraws his argument, fully in support of Prop. ∞. The next day, Prop. Infinity is approved. Amy is ecstatic, saying that she and Bender can have a normal, monogamous marriage now. Bender then leaves Amy for two robot hookers, while Amy goes back to Kif, who became a bad boy for her.

Storyboard
Another storyboard released from Act 1 of "Proposition Infinity" previews a scene entitled "Bender and Roberto in Jail". In this scene, we see Bender with Roberto in jail. Roberto asks if Bender has ever killed a man with a sock, then Roberto threatens Bender with a sock. He runs away, and, to protect him, take a wood stick and a knife and carves the stick with the knife.

Production
This episode and the second episode of the sixth season will also feature some more coarse language, that would previously not be possible on FOX. Some people wonder if this could hurt Futurama's possible return to FOX. But it's still possible for FOX to show the episodes if they were to censor the coarse language, just like they do with and.

Trivia
.The house in the tornado is a reference to a scene from The wizard of oz
