After all the internet cuts (see previous page), there were more bits of this episode cut out - including the funny, bitchy and often offensive banter between Alkazar and Leela.
-------------------------------
During Alkazar’s email to Leela:
ALKAZAR (on screen)                Fortunately I was able to write down your screen name before I was dispatched by that oafish moron [meaning Fry].
FRY (watching message)      (smugly) Kicked your ass…
ALKAZAR (on screen)                Leela, we have much to discuss…
-------------------------------
Later, when Alkazar is ordering Leela about in his castle:
ALKAZAR     So get to work on these dishes. And then organise my collection of
naked celebrity photos by name and what you can see.
-------------------------------
Alkazar, Ratman and his girlfriend and Pig are sitting down:
LEELA           Hey! Where’d you get this couch, and that TV set, and all this stuff?
ALKAZAR      They were giving it away on the street corner
– just like you, Leela!
(Pig / Ratman / Ratman’s girlfriend)   Whooo! Woof woof woof!

LEELA           Too bad they weren’t giving away the three things you actually need…
This bit looked really bad, with Leela jumping to a different place in the space of one frame.
-------------------------------
Seconds later:
LEELA (talking about Fry, who’s stuck in the dungeon)
                      Come on Al, can’t you let the little guy out?
ALKAZAR      Jeez, Leela, twice in one day?! I’m not Superman!
(Pig / Ratman / Ratman’s girlfriend go wild and whoop even louder)

-------------------------------
At dinner:
ALKAZAR       Yo Leela, what gives? Pig says your slop tastes like crap!
PIG                (eating slop out of a trough)  Yeah! Like crap!  (yet he continues to eat it)

--------------------------------
ALKAZAR       Not long ago, I spent my lonely nights renting
slasher flicks with Ratman and his girlfriend…
Kids don't even know what they are! Why censor it?
--------------------------------
At the end, Alkazar has just been found out by all of his five wives, and has to explain:
ALKAZAR       I gave you all what you wanted
, and of course I made a few bucks letting Pig watch through the two-way mirror.
--------------------------------
LEELA           All right, Alkazar – I just have one last question for you.
ALKAZAR      What’s that?
LEELA           If you could change form, why didn’t you change it in the
one place that counts?
(Wide shot of everyone whooping and cheering: Pig / Ratman / Ratman’s girlfriend, PX and the four other wives. Professor is still whooping after everyone stops. Not whooping – the robot who conducted the marriage, Nibbler and Alkazar)


The worst thing about this cut is that, in some forced-labour factory in Korea (if that Simpsons Itchy And Scratchy episode is anything to go by), someone probably worked really hard to draw those detailed frames of animation – and C4 censored it! Those nasty pasties.
