A Head in the Polls
Last Man On Earth?: Why is that man the last man on Earth? Given
the horrible destruction, how did he and the library survive? Also,
why did his eyes, hands and the like fall off?
Death Adder?: Why did "John Quincy Adding Machine" go on a killing
spree? If he was an adding machine, how and why would he?
Why Bother?: Why did the "Voter Apathy Party" bother showing
up? Why even bother registering, if he doesn't care? Also, why was he
so enthusiastic to sign up Fry when he found he didn't care? That isn't
very apathetic of him!
What a Kick!: How did Bender get kicked from "Rook Takes Pawnshop",
through the top window of the Planet Express building?
Skintight Pants?: I know it was intentional, but why would someone
who sold their body buy skintight pants?
Shaken, Not Stirred: How do you mix a martini in Bender's head?
Also, if Bender's antenna can simply be removed, why did he cut it off
in "I, Roommate"?
Always Bet on Black: Why did the croupier think that Bender's
head was the roulette ball?
Solution by Kyle Williams:
He knows Bender is not a roulette ball but does not care. Look at the expressoin on his face.
Strike!: Wouldn't it be a foul, not a strike, when Bender used
his head as a bowling ball? He crossed the foul line!
Head Exhibition?: How does the head museum hold special exhibitions?
What do they do with the heads the rest of the time? Stick them in a
warehouse?
Hall of Presidents?: Why are all the president heads kept in
the "Hall of Presidents"? Back in "Space Pilot 3000", they were kept
in the main room, and there didn't seem to be any reason for it to be
different then.
Solution by Kyle Williams:
Fry's little performance with Nixon (in 1ACV01) might have prompted better security.
Out of Order!: Who is the President following Bill Clinton?
He certainly doesn't seem to be an ex-president, nor is he one of the
candidates. In the image to the right you can see his surname appears
to end in "lmore", so perhaps it is "Gilmore", but that still doesn't
solve the problem. Also, in a later shot, he is no longer there!
Hook Me Up!: How does a head in a jar connect to Bender's robotic
body? Also, the "no-body" technicality isn't correct, as that is not
the language the constitution uses.
Solution by Kyle Williams:
They are talking about Earth's Constitution, the U.S.'.
Snatch & Grab: How did Fry get his clothes in only a few seconds
of the TV press conference? They certainly weren't there before!
Party Time!: How is Nixon a top contender for the presidency?
He isn't a candidate for either of the major parties, which is undeniably
necessary in the US system.
Solution by Kyle Williams:
This is the Earthican voting system, not U.S.
Supercomputers: Computers in 3000 are certainly more than twice
as fast as the computers of 1973.
Impeach Him!: Nixon can't do illegal things, even if he is a
President, as he can still be charged and impeached.
Robot Votes?: Why would robots be given the vote? After all,
if that were the case, someone could easily just build a whole lot of
robots and have them vote that person into the presidency!
