The Story

When the Planet Express ship is destroyed while on a mission in space, the crew including Professor Farnsworth, Amy, and Zoidberg must take refuge in a makeshift spaceship... made out of Bender! Trapped in space without a propulsion system and forced to live in close quarters, the crew must survive not only the many computer viruses infecting the robot but something even more deadly... one another!
