Lars Fillmore

Lars Fillmore is a time paradox duplicate of Philip J. Fry. This article deals with the duplicate of Fry.

In the 21st century
When Fry travels back in time on January 1st, 2000 to get a fresh pizza, he creates a duplicate of himself. He himself actually gets frozen again, while his duplicate walks back to Panucci, where he asks to get the storage room above the pizzeria. He lives there for three years, visits his family. But he cannot get Leela out of his mind.

It is then he learns that a narwhal named Leelu won't eat fish due to her parents being gone. Fry thinks this is his purpose in life and he gets employed when he proves he can get Leeloo to eat. He works there until 2010, where he is told that Leeloo need to be set free. But Fry decides to follow after her with the help of Mr. Panucci' brother. For two years they hunt narwhals, but not until 2012 does Fry find the one he looks for.

But as he travels back to shore with Leeloo caught, a male narwhal follows them, and it soon becomes apparent that Leeloo is in love with the narwhal, and it would best for Leeloo if he let her go. So he does. He then arrives back at the New York Docks to return to his own life.

While in his house, Bender arrives and destroys the building he lives in. In the progress Fry loses his hair, and his lungs gets infected with the smoke from the fire. As he looks in the mirror and the picture of Leela and Lars, he realises that he himself is Lars.

He rushes towards Applied Cryogenics, where he takes the tube with Michelle and sets it for 990 years, thus waking up in 3002.

In the 31st century
Almost a thousand years later, he gets employed at the Head Museum as feeder. But he also does jar jobs for people who have had their body cut off. He works there until one day in 3007, the Planet Express crew arrives as Hermes' body and head has been separated. Lars immediately hits on Leela. And Leela is flattered.

Soon they are dating, and while huggled together during Xmas, Lars asks the question for her hand in marriage. She accepts, and soon their wedding is thrown. But during the ceremony Hermes slips over the rope and the chandelier destroys his body and cuts his body off. Lars is reminded that he is a time paradox duplicate, and thus he himself is doomed. He calls off the wedding.

His life becomes mostly normal afterwards, until December 31, 3007, where Fry invites him to Applied Cryogenics to meet Leela. This is when Nudar suddenly arrives, and he have figured out that Lars has the time code as well. Lars, knowing he is doomed anyway, sacrifices himself to kill Nudar when he hugs him together onto Bender while he explodes from his Auto Destruct Sequence.

At his funeral, he explains why he had to call off the wedding. And his body now rests at the Orbiting Meadows.

Trivia

 * He must be 17 years older than Fry (biological), which is 50, as he manages to live for 12 years between 2000 and 2012, and he manages to live for five years (3002-3007) until his death. His age would be actually be 2040 given being frozen down twice.
