Biography

Enos was a Private First Class stationed at Roswell Army Air Field in 1947 and was dating a woman named Mildred.

When the Planet Express crew accidentally arrives in July 1947 Roswell, New Mexico, Philip J. Fry realizes his paternal grandparents, Enos and Mildred, worked there. He runs into Enos, and becomes paranoid to keep him alive. Professor Farnsworth had previously told Fry to keep away from Enos to avoid a time paradox, but Fry insisted on following Enos, trying to coax him out of homosexual (or bisexual) fantasies and being overly protective to keep him alive and well.

Fry eventually took Enos to the middle of nowhere, which turned out to be an atomic test site where Enos was killed in a nuclear blast. Since Fry still exists, Enos must have already gotten Mildred pregnant before dying (though nobody in the crew comes up with such a conclusion).

Quotes

    Enos: Well, gadzooks!

    Fry: You almost got neutered!
    Enos: Well, 'tain't as bad as gettin' killed.
    Fry: For me it is!

    Fry: She sure is pretty. You ought to marry her and father some children right away.
    Enos: Yeah, folks say that, but do you ever get the feelin' you're only going with girls 'cause you're supposed to?
    Fry: What!? Don't ever, ever say or think that again! Please, just concentrate on staying alive.

    Fry: That Jeep's gonna hit him! And I won't exist anymore! [Screaming, he runs and pushes Enos out of the way of the slow-moving Jeep, which turns right before it gets to them.] Are you crazy? You almost got yourself run over!
    Enos: I did? Then I sure am lucky you knocked me onto this pile of rusty bayonets!

    Sergeant: [shouting] Enos! [Fry gasps and takes Bender's eyes off his head and uses them to zoom in. He sees Enos and a sergeant yelling at him.] Private, I want that toilet bowl so clean I could eat off it! 'Cause I intend to!
    Enos: Well gadzooks, Sarge!

    Enos: Well, thanks, soldier. I'm off to make Sarge's lunch! Handling raw chicken, best part of the job! [He licks his fingers.] Mmm! Finger-licking good!
