The Story

During Comedy Central Insider's release of material regarding the new season, this picture was released. It is showing children stripping the ship for waste.

The story will deal with the future of technology such as iPhones and Twitter[4] with Mom controlling Twitter.[5] Also, Fry posts an embarrassing video of Leela online.[6] Also, somehow, a two-headed goat that throws up one end and exudes diarrhea on the other end gets involved in the story. There is some kind of contest, in which Mom controls Twitter and Bender hacks Facebook to control it. Fry and Leela take votes from citizens, asking who they think will win. Also, the crew goes to a planet that is a waste dump to eliminate e-waste. The children of the planet strip the ship and Bender for waste. Soon the crew discover that children do all of the work on the planet, except for whipping the children.
