The effects of the absence of the delta brainwave on Fry (4ACV10).

The delta brainwave is generated by all animals, with the exception of Philip J. Fry, due to him being his own grandfather (4ACV17); all robots; and certain trees (3ACV07). The Brain Spawn attack it with a stupefaction field. This causes people and robots to become stupid. The effects on trees is unknown.

The Legion of Mad Fellows are able to read people's thoughts from their delta brainwave (ITWGY). It is possible that the Brain Slugs feed on the delta brainwave, because the one who caught Fry died from starvation (2ACV08). It is also possible, while unlikely, that the Hypnotoad uses the brainwave to hypnotize others. This is evident when Fry was capable of commenting on Everybody Loves Hypnotoad by saying "This show has been going downhill since season 3" and everyone else seemed to like it (4ACV06).

Additional Info

Identity

The Delta brain-waive is a telekinetic force that helps telepathic life-forms read minds, if a creature does not posess telepathy, than the brainwave is un-noticible and therefor undetectable to there minds.


Mentions

Since the delta brainwave is generated by every character but Fry, it is technically present in every episode (as there is at least one more character in every episode).
