We talked about Luck of the Fryish and Jurassic Bark. But there’s more—quieter episodes. Episodes that didn’t yell… they whispered. And that whisper stayed with you. • Parasites Lost (The Worms Episode) Fry becomes smarter, stronger, confident. But he gives it all up to prove Leela could love him without enhancements. That’s vulnerability disguised as comedy. • Godfellas Bender drifts through space, accidentally becomes a god, and loses his tiny civilization trying to help them. “When you do things right, people won’t be sure you’ve done anything at all.” Philosophy in robot form. • The Sting Leela loses Fry in a space bee accident—then unravels in dreams, guilt, and hallucinations. But it’s Fry who stays with her the whole time, whispering: “Wake up, Leela.” She thought she lost him. But he never left.

I forget what it's called but the inspector 5 episode cut me pretty deep
That Inspector 5 episode hit like a whisper in the chest. Quiet, personal, but devastating. When Bender realizes he’s not just a product—he’s someone chosen… whew.
