Film to Episode Edits
To make this quarter of the film fit into an episode's timeslot, some transitional shots were shortened slightly, and some other larger cuts have occurred.
 * The Hydroponic Farmer has been edited out of the opening cartoon, which now ends as Fry is knocked off-screen.
 * Farnsworth's "Oh my, yes," before talking about Fry's blood, is cut.
 * When the Planet Express Ship gets caught in a giant flytrap, the shot of the trap opening up to allow its passengers to exit has been edited out as well.
 * Bender doesn't say "Oh you'll pay my darlings!"
