| FUTURAMA CUTS - SEASON 2 15: MOTHER’S DAY (page 1 of 2) C4 PREMIERE MAY HAVE BEEN IN OCT/NOV 2001, AND IT WAS DEFINITELY SHOWN IN EARLY APRIL 2002 - uncut premiere came in April 2003 or thereabouts, in the overnight slot THE ONE WHERE It’s Mother’s Day, the Day when all robots give presents to, and gather to see, the evil corporate owner Mom. So – she orders them to rebel destroy and kill against humankind until she is the overlord of Earth. And only one person can stop the destruction: Professor! DEFINITE CUTS BY C4 DEFINITE CUTS BY SKY ONE -------------------------- MOM Jerkwad robots make me sick to my ass! [to her son] Walt! How are we disposing of these crap gifts they bought me? -------------------------- Sky cut both of these lines, but C4 kept the words "conquer Earth" in: At Mom’s private get-together with her thousands of robots, she presses the 'rebel' button on her remote: MOM Conquer Earth, you bastards! ROBOTS Conquer Earth, us bastards... [Credit: 'Chump' again] -------------------------- Mom explains to her three sons why she hates Mother’s Day so much: MOM One Mother’s Day 70 years ago, the only man I ever loved walked out on me. Some say it made me a bitter woman. SON 2 Gee, Ma, you’re not a bitter- MOM Cram it, ape!!! (slaps him across the face) A weird thing to cut – and even weirder, Sky cut it and C4 didn’t. -------------------------- Later, Leela comes up with the plan that Professor has to seduce Mom, get her bra off (that’s where she keeps the remote control) and press the button to call them off: WALT That’s so filthy it just might work! SON 3 The man is going to touch Mommy? Uurgh! PROFESSOR Oohhh! (shudders) The thought of caressing that leathery hide makes the tapioca rise in my gullet! FRY Professor, please! The fate of the world depends on you getting to second base with Mom. -------------------------- The Professor is at the door of Mom’s country retreat: MOM It’s been a long time… you pus-dripping sack of double-smoked butt-jerky! PROFESSOR (ignoring that) Uh-huh. -------------------------- Seconds later – Mom is trying to slam the door but Professor’s foot is blocking it: MOM Move your freaking hoof, you goat! Oh my gosh; "freaking"! Disgraceful language there. -------------------------- Mom lets the Professor in eventually, discussing the past, but another argument starts: PROFESSOR Go to hell! I was a fool to think you’d changed, you old bat! MOM Filthy toothless nerd bastard! PROFESSOR Damned she-fossil! MOM Stink pig!! (suddenly, they kiss passionately. Oh man, the tapioca's rising in my gullet!) (Both C4 and Sky cut "bastard".) THERE'S MORE - AND IT GETS MUCH MORE CONFUSING > |
