Opening theme cartoon: Unknown
 
LOOK HARD: In Fry's funeral, there are all the women he slept with during the series: An Amazonian, his old frozen girlfriend Michelle, Morgan the bureaucrat, that radiator lady from the radiator planet and the woman he met at the "Hip Joint" in "Love's Labors Lost In Space". Other people that were at Fry's funeral were Guenter from "Mars University," the liquid people from "My Three Suns," and one of the cryogenics workers from "Space Pilot 3000". And if you notice very carefully near Fry's coffin, you'll see Fry's fossilized dog, Seymour.
 
LOOK HARD: The items in Leela's "Memories of Fry" box are:

- A spoon with him as emperor ("My Three Suns")
- A can of Slurm
- Fry's first moustache ("The Cryogenic Woman")
- "You Leave me Breathless" candy heart ("Love and Rocket")
- Magnet Souvenier from the Moon ("Episode Two: The Series has Landed")
- Flower ("The Why of Fry")
- Oil Can ("Insane in the Mainframe?")
- Photo of Fry (which identical to the one she had taped to her punching bag in "My Three Suns", except that Fry is facing the opposite way)

Episode Quotes
 
Leela: Fry! You're alive!
Fry: Leela! You're awake!
Leela: Of course I'm awake. You wouldn't stop waking me. Where am I?
Fry: In a hospital. The ambulance brought you here shortly after the bee stung you.
Leela: But the bee stung you. It barely touched me.
Fry: Stinger went right through me and you got all the poison. My new spleen came from a guy who liked to motorcycle.
