We enventual came to a point where we ran out of possible jokes to end act II.  People screaming in terror.  A very common thing to happen at the end of-- for the second ???.
 
-JD
Some more Bender scatting.
 
-SD
I love that atmosphere stuff, it was such a afterthought thing, but it turned out to be something so cool.
 
-DXC
It's weird, because it's garbage, yet it's pretty, yet it looks like garbage.
 
-SD
Prettiest garbage.
 
-JD
I love how the--
 
-DXC
Tress MacNeille plays Linda, the other-- I love that cute laugh she does.
 
-?
That guy's dumb.
 
-DXC
Controversial joke among the writers, animators, everyone involved.
 
-LM
I feel so bad about this myself now.
 
-JD
Really, that was--?
 
-DXC
Some people felt that was *too* dumb, even for Fry. [something] Just about right.
 
-?
??? said, "wahoo, a joke about pooping!"
 
-LM
This joke here-- what professor's want and Chinese graduate students, really really shows how many ex-graduate students we have on our writing staff.
 
More Armageddon.
 
-DXC
Ah, one of the first--
 
-?
Wanted to act like himself.
 
-DXC
Yes, one of Zoidberg's first turns toward being starving, in addition to being a bad doctor.
 
Good sound effect.
 
-SD
That was more 3D animation too.
 
I love the professor's slippers.
 
-JD
Yeah, what's the inspiration for the slippers?  Anybody?
 
-?
Nah.
 
-MG
He was senile, he forgot to put on regular shoes and so--.  What I love about the 3D animation is the way it combines with the 2D animation in a fairly seemless way.  Most 3D animation is too slick and off putting to me, but this-- this looks like 2D animation!
 
-JD
It's pretty sutle, pretty sutle.
 
-RM
We never wanted to call attention to it, so...
 
-JD
Ah, the kitty litter.
 
-?
That's great.
 
-LM
Originally, at this point, in the script, there was a-- they brought in the world's greatest pool player-- or the universe's greatest pool player, Ogturest??? Fats??? to properly shoot the ball-- to make the balls collide, so they would go into the sun.  And he was cut, and instead of him we have a joke where Fry's too dumb to press a button.  Which is much better.
 
-DXC
It's ??? funny for how short and stupid it is.
 
That was Matt's suggestion, again late--
 
-?
This is all 3D.
 
-MG
That he misses the button?
 
-DXC
Yeah.
 
-MG
Yeah, the most obvious target.
 
-DXC
Three huge rings around it.
 
-LM
Ogturest??? Fats??? died, so that joke could live.
 
-SD
Wow, this is cool.
 
-DXC
This is another one of those things, when we wrote it, we had no idea whether you guys could do it, because we hadn't seen any of the animation at the time of writing this.  And then we saw it, and we were blown away.
 
-SD
And after Apollo 13, everybody knows about the slingshot effect.
 
-?
Yeah, true.
 
-?
True.
 
-DXC
We were--
 
-?
The what?!
 
-SD
The slingshot--
 
-DXC
Whenever a mayor makes a speech, it starts with "and so".
 
Music here inspired by my favourite movie, Dr Strangelove.
 
-?
Hey guys, the pasta maker's here.
 
-JD
Ah yeah!
 
-?
It just came.
 
-JD
Ah, excellent.  ??? pasta.
 
-SD
Chocolate pasta?  Wait.
 
-?
Yay.
