The Story

Act I: "Somebody's been leaving food around...and it's attracting owls!"

Hermes complains about Fry living in the Planet Express Headquarters. Everyone agrees, so Fry has to find a new place to live. Bender invites him to stay in his apartment, which turns out to be a tiny space only a couple of feet on a side. Since this doesn't work well for Fry, so Leela takes Fry and Bender apartment hunting. They finally find a nice rent-controlled place that belonged to a friend of the Professor.

Act II: "Fry, of all the friends I've had...you're the first."

Bender and Fry get settled in at their new apartment, but a problem arises - Bender's antenna interferes with the entire buildings' TV reception. Fry doesn't want to give up the apartment, so Bender is forced to move out. He can't move back in with Fry unless he cuts off his antenna, so Bender moves back into his old place, becomes very depressed, and stops drinking.

Act III: "Bender, you're blind stinking sober!"

Staggering around in a staggering stupor of sobriety, Bender, shows up at Fry's apartment and cuts off his antenna. Fry feels guilty, and they find and reattach Bender's antenna and move back into Bender's apartment. Bender reveals there is a "closet", which is actually an entire apartment.
