The Story

Act I

Fry, Bender, Leela and Cubert have returned to earth to find it is deserted but all Fry and Bender want to do is loot, until Lrr and Ndnd appear claiming the planet since it is uninhabited and is only inhabited if there are at least 100 people living there. Fry makes up a story that there are 100 people at Planet Express; but if they aren’t sent over in an hour Fry and Bender will be slaves. At Planet Express Cubert finds some devices that were recently used and have chroniton readings. Cubert is suddenly taken off by a dinosaur which lands where the omicronions are. Cubert is used as a slave.

Act II

Bender ties the time vortex in a knot before the crew find Cubert and they bring Zoidberg’s shells and mannequins with them to disguise them as humans, they also dress up as other people. The omicronians leave and Leela finds a video attached to the dinosaur’s foot, which shows all of earth in the time of the dinosaurs and Professor Farnsworth recording it. He explains that his experiment opened a time vortex and that the crew must bring three pieces of the machine. Fry realises that if the earth isn’t saved he will cease to exist but there is still time to save it. The time vortex is in three parts after Bender tied it in a knot and each crewmember is sucked in with a piece of the time machine into different years…
