History Recap / FuturamaM4IntoTheWildGreenYonder

* ScalesOfJustice: A statue of Lady Justice appears with her scales. Funny enough a smaller statue of her is seen in one of her scales with the other being tipped over with a bag of money showing corruption.

** Celine Dion gets burned repeatedly, with the Planet Express crew making it clear they don't want the free tickets to Celine Dion offered to them by Leo Wong, a banner for the poker tournament saying that losers will have to attend her performance and the Number 9 Man saying "probably" in response to Fry's question on whether the Encyclopods loving and defending all living things included Celine Dione.

* WhiteSheep: Hutch is understatedly this for the Waterfall family, a MellowFellow who gives Fry helpful advice about his telepathy, is capable of rational thought and isn't TooDumbToLive and is part of an environmental protection group who aren't {{Hypocrite}}s or [[TheWarOnStraw Strawmen]], don't value animal life over human life and actually succeed in their goal. Fittingly while his father's death [[AndThereWasMuchRejoicing got a round of applause]], upon his death his DNA was taken by the Encyclopod to prevent the extinction of the human race.

During a trip to Mars Vegas, an accident involving a group of [[StrawFeminist straw feminists]] leaves Fry with [[MindReading the ability to read minds]], entangling him into a secret society known as the Legion of Mad Fellows. Leela joins up with the feminist group in order to bring down Leo Wong's environmentally disastrous giant miniature golf course, Bender begins having an affair with the wife of the leader of the Robot Mafia, and Fry works undercover as a security guard to prevent the potential extinction of man kind.

* MindReading: Fry is gifted with this ability somehow after Frieda Waterfall's necklace becomes embedded in his head. He then becomes part of a group of mind readers known as the Legion of Mad Fellows.

* {{Telepathy}}: Fry gets this, by way of Frieda Waterfall's "femi-necklace" being lodged in his head. [[StatusQuoIsGod Hutch pulls it out just before he dies.]]

* KilledOffForReal: The Headless Body of Spiro Agnew is run over by a gold cart and killed.

** Leela's parents, as well as several other sewer mutants, are seen among the crowd at the end of the movie, despite at this point in the series, mutants are still not allowed to leave the sewers to go above ground (unless given a special pass by the mayor, as shown in ''Less Than Hero'', but who other than Leela, who is a fugitive in this movie, could have done that for them?)

* EcocidalAntagonist: Leo Wong plans to destroy the Violet Dwarf Star to build a giant golf course, which poses a serious threat to alien life (especially since, unbeknownst to everyone, the star is [[spoiler:half of the genetic material required to recreate the Encyclopod and preserve the DNA of every endangered or extinct animal species that ever lived]]). This spurns Leela to join (and eventually lead) an ecofeminist group to stop him.

* BackForTheFinale: ''A single scene'' depicts up to two hundred fifty minor and recurring characters that have appeared in the series (the animation studio fined the production company due to how expensive this was). The only ones not present are any child-characters, who were originally present but removed after the writers realized this conflicted with a line about no children being present.

* BlackAndGrayMorality: Despite molding into a StrawFeminist group of [[AnimalWrongsGroup eco-terrorists]] who resort to acts of sabotage and even kidnapping on one occasion, Leela and the Feministas are nonetheless clearly the sympathetic side in their conflict with Leo Wong, a [[CorruptCorporateExecutive corrupt]] [[StayInTheKitchen male chauvinist]] [[{{Jerkass}} jerk]] who cares only about building his super-sized miniature golfcourse while bull-dozing through the universe in the most environmentally-destructive manner possible.

* {{Catchphrase}}: Many as usual, but notably [=LeBarbara=] tries to come up with some similar to Hermes', with him shooting them down every time.

** Calculon suffers a system error from using [[UsefulNotes/MicrosoftWindows Windows Vista]], which was notorious for crashing all the time. In Comedy Central reruns, however, the OS was changed to Windows 7.

** Celine Dion gets burned repeatedly through the first act, with the Planet Express crew making it clear they don't want the free tickets to Celine Dion offered to them by Leo Wong and the Number 9 Man saying "probably" in response to Fry's question on whether the Encyclopods loving all life included Celine Dione.

* BadassBaritone: The newborn Encyclopod, 30 seconds old and his voice already '''booming'''.

* KickTheSonOfABitch: Ultimately, Leo Wong to the Dark Ones, aka the muck leeches he exterminated at the start of the movie. He laughed at the thought of screwing with Mother Nature, but that species? The universe is better off with them going extinct.

* GrandFinale: The second intended series finale, but went out on a stronger note with Fry and Leela supposedly going through a RelationshipUpgrade.

%%* GreenAesop

* KickTheSonOfABitch: Ultimately, Leo Wong to the Dark Ones, aka the muck leeches he exterminated at the start of the movie. He laughed at the thought of screwing with Mother Nature, but that species? The universe is no poorer for their extinction.

* SeriesFauxnale: The second one, albeit by the time it was actually released, it was already generally known that Creator/ComedyCentral were picking the show up for some new seasons.

** Celine Dion gets burned repeatedly through the first act.

* TheMole: Fry infiltrates Leo Wong's organization to sabotage his attempts to destroy the Violet Dwarf Star. Bender teams up with Nixon and [=DOOP=] to capture the Feministas, so he can later break them out of prison, though this just because he doesn't want anyone having a longer rap sheet than him.

** Leela's parents are seen among the crowd at the end of the movie, despite at this point in the series, mutants are still not allowed to leave the sewers to go above ground (unless given a special pass by the mayor, as shown in ''Less Than Hero'', but who other than Leela, who is a fugitive in this movie, could have done that for them?)

* SeriesContinuityError: Nixon's thoughts claim he faked the Moon Landing, but two movies ago, he said it was real, "nothing up there but dry rocks and those revolting onion men!" Then again, Nixon is completely insane.

* OffModel: At one point during the poker game, Leo Wong shows five fingers instead of four, although that was done on purpose.
