    Deserves much higher points, brilliant!

    Another Bender-centric episode that i just love. It's very brilliant writing once again. Bender's conning and violent ways are noticed by the robot mafia and soon he starts working for them.

    He's doing great and his boss really likes him but complications arise when the boss decides to destroy the planet express ship. With Leela and fry taken hostage, Bender tries his best to save his friends. I just love when Bender takes the spotlight because he's so damn funny.

    This episode is again a genius addition to the show and its second season, which is as good if not better than the first season. I give it 9.5/10. Brilliant!
