The Temp

Professor · Leela:If I'm reading this correctly, we're underwater. You're not reading it correctly.

Leela:Stick to fish flakes, you overgrown sea monkey!

Lrrr · Server:Is that Crab Rangoon? No, he's Dr. Zoidberg.

Lrrr:Here. Place my lead-lined overcape in the Closet of Heavy Things.

Server:I love my job.

Lrrr:Wrong! Ndnd got them from an inspirational placemat.

Ndnd:It was a quality placemat!

Lrrr:your dress covered in the blood of three B'dnkian warriors. You took me in your arms and ate the morsel of B'dnkian entrail lodged in my cleavage. It was delicious.

Guest · Server:Hey, you got any, B'dnkian entrail on that tray? No, but we have lettuce-wrapped cucumbers, which are even grosser.

Zoidberg:If you want me to not eat, then you should have done the cooking! Snap!

Officiant · Lrrr:If it please the Lord? Yeah, I love that kinda stuff.

Lrrr · Ndnd:Why do I have to use the hook? I hate the hook. You managed to capture me with it at our first wedding. You weren't the intended target.

Lrrr:But enough about me. Stick to the script.

Guest · Amy:Nobody invited the help. Nobody invited me to kick your ass either, yet here we are. Hi-ya!

Bender:I wonder what I should bake next. Hey, Fry, you ever wanted to be in a pie?

Fry:Anything for you, buddy. Point me to the crust, and I'll be there.

Zoidberg:Scrub-a-dub-dub!

Fry · Leela · Amy · Bender:I have the best life ever. That's our Fry. It sure is. It most definitely is.

Professor:Extremely easily.

Leela:Come on. Let's get a temp dimwit to replace our permanent one.

Leela · Amy:Is that him? Maybe?

Manager:Secretary, jockey, lion tamer, bowling shoe spray technician.

Leela:Well, let's see. It's a thankless job. He'll never be thanked. Any skills? Absolutely not! I'll need to berate him for being incompetent!

Manager:Then, I've got just the schlep for you.

Leela:Perfect! He sounds very berate-able.

Frank:I have no characteristics and people forget me as soon as I leave the room. And sometimes before that.

Leela:That's ridiculous! Um...

Leela:No, that's an empty space between three stacks of boxes.

Frank:I don't have time for that. Temping is a full-time job.

Guest · Frank:Thanks a lot, I wanna say Dave? Frank. I'm the temp. I've been here two weeks.

Bender:I can't stand his toxic positivity. He likes everyone, even me! It's pathetic.

Frank:Wow. Fry's not even here and you remember his name? He must be quite a guy.

Zoidberg:Who the hell is he?

Librarian:A novelization of the TikTok video 'Peanut Butter Eating Dog Lip Syncs to Olivia Rodrigo.'

Amy · Leela · Amy:Ooh! I'd watch that. It's a book. You'd read it. No, I wouldn't.

Leela:Certainly not! It's been illegal to dump hazardous waste in the ocean for over a year now.

Leela:Ew! I got book on me!

Amy:So weird that reading used to be a thing.

Bender:Let's get outta here before some dork says trashing books is a travesty.

Leela:Only a delivery to book hell. We're just lucky we made it back without reading anything.

Leela · Professor:We did all make it back, right? / Well, let's see. There's me, Bender, and some other people... We're good.

Leela:Five, 6, 7, 8. All eight crew members present and accounted for.

Frank:I can get through this. I'm a temp, dammit. I'm sure they'll be back soon.

Hermes · Fry:When's the last time you took one? Twenty-three years ago, after that horrific snu-snu incident.

Leela · Amy · Bender:What's-his-name! He had a name? Even I looked down on him.

Professor:We'll just swing by on the way to the wedding and pick up his corpse.

Frank · Leela · Amy:I thought you'd forgotten about me. No. We could never forget... Frank! Of course! Sounds right.

Frank · Amy:Books! Book sandwiches, book soup, scrambled books with fly larvae! Ew, books!

Frank:It's just as itchy as I dreamed it would be.

Frank:Yes, I am. I'm right here...

Bender:Finally, a use for the Bible.

Frank:Why hast thou forsaken me?!

Leela:She fell and broke a few of her elbows.

Leela's grandmother:I broke another one.

Professor · Leela · Amy · Zoidberg:While during the same period, we're using twice as much soap in the men's room. I have noticed less body odor. Definitely. Way less.

Leela · Frank:You're not Fry. That's Fry! Yes... Fry...

Bender:That could be me with anyone stupid. I have a picture with everybody!

Frank:And The Return of the King? That one I didn't read. It's the third book of the trilogy, and I've never read the first two. I didn't wanna spoil it, you know?

Frank:Because you have such a great life! I've had so, so many temp jobs, but working at Planet Express was the one time in my life I was truly happy.

Fry:Whoa. Bleak.

Bender:I'm already in my pajamas. No, I'm not.

Leela:That's not a plan! You're just improvising!

Amy · Professor:How much radiation? Not much. Like having an affair with Marie Curie.

Bender:I... think I was gonna throw it at somebody. Who? I can't remember.

Amy · Leela:Hey, why is the ship sideways? Who knows? It just falls over sometimes.

Fry:I don't need a vacation. I just had six weeks off.
