The V-GINY is a death sphere that was created when an FCC V-Chip collided with the USAF Flying Destiny. After the collision, the V-GINY began to "censor" indecent planets by destroying them, including Planet XXX, Poopiter, and that world that can't be mentioned in polite company. It was about to destroy Earth until it saw Turanga Leela and Zapp Brannigan. Believing that they were Adam and Eve, it instructed them to consummate their "relationship" or else it would destroy the Earth. After some reluctance on Zapp's part (he stated that the lasers made him feel "inadequate"), they comply with the V-GINY's demands and save Earth. Fry asks the V-GINY to censor Zapp and Leela's consummation, but the V-GINY refuses, saying that it is "approved for all audiences".

The Mysterious Black Substance

V-GINY generates an unknown black matter that it uses to implode planets. It appears to be able to manipulate the matter after fire, as shown when used on the Professor it instead creates a black bar to censor his nudity. The matter can be generated indefinitely and was used to censor indecent planets.

Trivia

  • The name of the death sphere is a cheeky play on the word "vagina."
  • The V-GINY is a parody of "V'Ger" from Star Trek: The Motion Picture and the Death Star from Star Wars.
  • The collision of two satellites is a parody of Star Trek: The Original Series episode The Changeling where collision of Earth's and Aliens' probes produced a hybrid called Nomad, whose mission directives were combined to "sterilize imperfections"
