OK, the capsules are complete. Or, rather, I'm done updating them. Until around 4pm tomorrow (Sept. 28th) you can download them at
http://machip.chem.emory.edu/capsules/
Later, they should appear on FuturamaFan and possibly at TKTV's Futurama site.
Thanks to everyone who helped with the capsules, and no thanks to everyone who didn't.
Hi,I'm new here, but I've been reading the postings for some time. I'm interested in Capsules and noticed some missing for 2acv01 - 2acv14. So instead of waiting I thought better put my hand on it myself. I'm asking for advice and suggestions. Thank you.
[email] (Sophie Mateju) wrote in message news:...
A few of those exist - 2ACV01, 2ACV02, 2ACV03, if I'm not mistaken. You can find them by searching Google groups. Although the one you'll find for 2ACV03 is incomplete - the (more) complete version should be available soon.
Do you mean you want to make them? Or just want to snatch them?
If it's the former, more power to you. Start with making trsncripts. If it's latter - you're out of luck. Nobody's made them yet.

Farnsworth: Good news, everyone, the university is bringing me in on
disciplinary charges! Wait, thats not good news at all.
Leela: Whatever you did, professor,I'm sure there's a
reasonable explanation.
Farnsworth: Yes, but they won't listen. Everone's in favor of saving
Hitlers brain, but when you put it in the body of a great white
shark, uh-uhh, suddenly you've gone to far!

Dean Vernon: Professor Farnsworth, do you know why we've called
you here today?
Farnsworth: Listen to me, you pompous frauds, if I'm going down,
I'm taking you all with me. Dean Vernon, I know the truth!
It was you driving your hovercar that night, not your horse!
Dean Epsilon, I know all about your department of poolball
studies. And Dr. Vernstr�m. Vernstr�m!
Dean Vernon: Actually, Professor, we merely have called you here today
to say...[lights go up] Suprise!
%

Crew: Suprise!
Farnsworth: And you Coach Smarley, or should I say Coach Hairpiece!
Leela: No Professor, it's a suprise party, for your hundred and
fortyeighth birthday.
Farnsworth: Oh.
%
% Bender takes the speaker's desk and plugs a Microphone into his side.

% now a picture of a happy looking Farnsworth.
%
Bender: Good Evening, I'm ...[feedback noise] Oh, Sorry [he turns
his amplifier down] Alright. I'm Bender, and I'm mcee'ing this
host. You know they say you can judge a man by the
company he keeps, so here's the professor oldest friend, a
grotesque stinking lobster!
%
% Dr Zoidberg takes the speaker's desk.
%
Zoidberg: Good evening, ladies and germs. [Joke Music] That was'nt a joke.
I was talking to dean streptococcus. Now I'm not saying that
Professor Farnsworth is old, but when you consider his age,
he's likely to die soon. [joke-music, but the crowd stays cold]
Hey Ringo, that was the joke. [sadly] Oh, it's showtime in the
apollo all over again.[leaves the podium]
Bender: Where would the professor be without students who love and respect
him... Right there! [points to Farnsworth, laughs].But cheers.
Of all the former crewmembers of the professors delivery ship
our next speaker is by far the most alive. Captain Muskee!
%
% Captain Muskee enters the stage in a hover box that displays just his
% chest and his horrible disfigured face. His speech consists merely of a

%
Zoidberg: I would'nt want to follow that guy.
Bender: [laughs, whips of a tear] And now a man who needs no introduction
[he leaves the desk, but noone takes it, until he alerts Fry]
Fry, get up there!
%
% Fry takes the speaker's desk, there's some applause.
%
Fry: Thank you. You know, when I was first asked to make a film about
my nephew, Professor Farnsworth, I thougt, why should I. Then later
Leela made the film. But if I had made the film, you can bet
there would have been more topless women on motorcycles.

Title: Hubert Farnsworth: A Living Obituary.
Leelas Voice: Hubert J. Farnsworth was born Aril 9th 2851 in New New Yorks
dirtiest slum, hells labaratory. A precocious child, young
Farnsworth learned to read while he was still in diapers
at age eight. And before long he blossomed into a greasy
teenager.Fry: [same gesture as Farnsworth on screen] Dork alert!
Leelas Voice: After fourteen years of graduate school, Farnsworth settled
into the glamorous life of a scientist: Fast cars, trendy
nightspots, beautiful women. The professor would design
them all, working at his tiny one room apartment. For
fifty years he worked at Moms friendly Robot Company,
where he created the first Robot capable of qualifying
for a boat loan. And now, even as he nears his hundred
and fiftith birthday, the professor retains the firey passion
of youth. [replay of professor before university court:]
Farnsworth: Listen to me, you pompous frauds, if I'm going down,
I'm taking you all with me.
Title: Hubert J. Farnsworth: To be continued... ?
%
% Film ends.
% Farnsworth looks rather unhappy.
%
Bender: How About a few words, professor?
%
% The Professor startles, and produces just gibberish.
%
Bender: I said words!
Farnsworth: What a pleasure it is to see my lifetime of accomplishments
summed up into a three minutes film. My best years are behind
me, so much left undone, so little time.
Bender: Funny, funny... stuff...
%
% At Planet Express,the crew tries to comfort a now very depressed Professor.
%
Farnsworth: My Life is over.
Leela: No it is'nt. You have another ten years left.
Fry: Leela! He could live another *hundred* years [blinks]
Leela: No, he could'nt. When you turn hundred sixty, robots of the
sunset squad take you to a mysterious planet, and you never
return.
Fry: Wow! A whole planet of old people. Where is it?
Bender: [dramatically] Nobody knows!
Farnsworth: So many longs half longed, so many inventions half invented.
That damn time machine alone set me back fifteen years.
Zoidberg: If only it had worked, you could go back and not waste
time on it.
Farnsworth: There is no one to carry on, no one to take over my work
and my research and my fabulous fortune. My God! That's it!
I've got to name a successor!
Crew: A sucessor?
Zoidberg: A successor to the professor?
Farnsworth: There is no time to loose. I'm off to my lab to build
a successor naming machine!
%
% Days later at Planet Express.
%
Fry: Man, the Professor's been in his lab for days.
Bender: I hope he did'nt die, unless he left a note naming me as
his successor, then I'd hope he did die.
Zoidberg: You, his successor? Over my dead shell. The professor
would take me. Only I have his lobsterlike (senacity?)
Hermes: Up yours Zoidberg, up where ever your species traditionally
crams things. The only sensible way to pick up a successor
is with a limbo contest.
Leela: What?
Hermes: Kingston rules: Two man go down, one come up.
%
% He limboes under the oven, where Leela blocks his way out with the
% garbage can.
%
Leela: Look. The Professor trusts me with a giant spaceship. He
would'nt trust the rest of you with his dentures.
Amy: [mouth full] Yes he would.
Fry: Sorry everyone, but neither of you realizes that blood is
thicker than water
Zoiberg: [scribbeling] Blood...thicker...water.
%
% The labaratory. Sign : Mice please enter trough maze.
%
Farnsworth: Everyone, I have a very dramatic announcement. So anyone
with a weak heart should leave now. Goodbye! [leaves]
Leela: Er, Professor...
Farnsworth: Oh yes, the anouncement. As you all know, I am not long for
this world. [Crew agrees] So I picked my successor . It's
someone in whom I have great faith even though his mind is
undeveloped, complete to nothing. [Fry smirks] My closest
living relative, my Clone Cubert Farnsworth.
%
% Everyone gasps, especially Fry. The Professor turns some (hebel) an
% reveals a glass tank filled with water and a naked boy.
%
Zoidberg: He is horrible!
Fry: Crud. Can I at least get inhereence to your dentures?
Amy: [mouth still full] Yo, wait.
Fry: Where did Cubert come from?
Farnsworth: Twelve years ago, I began the cloning process by removing
some skin cells from one of the shaplier growths of my back.
Leela: Wait. If he is your clone, why does't his his nose look
like yours?
Farnsworth: I left him in his first tube too long. He got squished up
against the side.
Bender: Is he dumb or just ugly?
Farnsworth: Lets find out.
%
% He presse a button, and releases the tanks water. Cubert coughs, spits
% out water, and realizes everone's staring at him.
%
Cubert: What. You never seen a geniuses whiener before?
Fry: Well, once in a park.
%
% Later, Cubert inspects the crew. Bender and Fry play Penny to the Wall,
% Dr. Zoidberg sucks on some Tomatojuice.
%
Cubert: As long as I'm going to be in charge, let me examine my
so called crew, if it can so be called. First of all, Dr.
Zoidberg. Do you even have a medical degree?
Zoidberg: I lost it. In a volcano.
Cubert: And why do we need a bending robot here anyway? What
possible use do we have for you?
Bender: Me no speakin' english.
Cubert: And why does our space captain have just one eye? There
is someone I want you to meet. His name ist dephth
perception. Hahaha.
Leela: Why you little...
%
% She tries to slap Cubert and misses.
%
Cubert: Wow, that hurt...the air!
Bender: Impending for a bending...
Farnsworth: Oh, Cubert, come in here. I have something amazing to show you.
Cubert: What is ist? A competent employee? I doubt that very much.
Hahaha!
%
% He joins the professor, leaving a disgruntled crew.
%
% At the hird Flor of the Planet Express building, Farnsworth shows
% Cubert around
%
Farnsworth: Cubert, as my successor I'm trusting you to carry on my
work. These are just some of the half finished inventions
you'll spend your life finishing.
Cubert: I did'nt realize you were the inventor of the junk here.
Farnsworth: That's my price-winning smelloskope.If a dog crapped anywhere
in the universe, you can bet I woun't be on on them.
And this is my universal translator. Unfortunatly, it only
translates into an incomprehensivly dead language.
Cubert: Hello.
Translator: Bon jour.
Farnsworth: Crazy Gibberish!
Cubert: Don't you have any worthwhile inventions?
Farnsworth: Why, certainly! Skip over here.
%
% Space. The PE Spaceship zooms along. Farnsworth and Cubert, dressed
% in spacesuits, are in standing near the engines.
%
Farnsworth: These are the dark matter engines I invented. They allow my
starship to travel between galaxies in mere hours.
Cubert: Thats impossible! You can't go faster than the speed of light.
Farnsworth: Of course not! That's why scientists increased the speed
of light in 2208!
Cubert: Also impossible!
%
% In front of the ships burning chamber.
%
Farnsworth: And what makes my engines truly remarkable is the
afterburner, which delivers 200 percent fuel efficency.
Cubert: Thats especially impossible.
Farnsworth: Not at all! It's very simple!
Cubert: Than explain it!
Farnsworth: Now that's impossible! It came to me in a dream, and I forgot
it in another dream.
Cubert: Your explanations are pure wippinscrate ballonium. It's all
*impossible*!
Farnsworth: Nothing is impossible. Not when you can imagine it. That's
what being a scientist is all about!
Cubert: No, that's what being a magical elf is all about.
%
% Later, an evening at Elzar's fine Cuisine. Farnsworth ha invited his
% crew to quiet dinner.
%
Bender: Oh god. Oh my god! Its Elzar, the TV Chef. Kill me now people!
Elzar: How we goin' here?
Bender: Oh, Elzar, everything is *so* good.
Elzar: What are you, an ass kissing machine?
Bender: Yes sir! A good one, sir!
Farnsworth: Oh, it's a gem of an evining. I feel so wunderful having
someone to take over my lifes work, and it's all thanks
to Cubert.
Cubert: Look professor, I may be identical to you in every possible
way, but that doesn't mean I'm anything like you.
Farnsworth: You..what
Cubert: I don't wanna be an inventor. I wanna be something useful,
like a teacher, or a prison guard, or a sience fiction
cartoon writer.
Farnsworth: But but...but what about my hopes and my dreams and my wonderful
inventions?
Cubert: In your entire life your only half decent invention was me,
and I didn't turn out like you wanted either.
%
% Farnsworth can't answer to that, and starts to cry silently, watched by
% a helpless crew. Elzar interupts the falling mood.
%
Elzar: You folks are doin' alright?
Bender: Oh yes Elzar.
Elzar: Good. Because it turns out that I forgot to cook that chicken.
%
% Later, Night at PE. Storm Clouds fill the sky, Lightning cuts through it.
% The professor starts the home video equipment for a private message.
%
Farnsworth: Bad news everyone. By the time you watch this tape, I'll be
gone, leaving behind me a life of failures and my original
hipbones. You see, I've been lying about my age. I'm actually
not a hundred and fifty, I'm a hundred and sixty. Oh vanity,
thy name is professor Farnsworth! Now that I've got nothing
to live for, I've alerted the sunset squad robots to
take me away.
%
% Through a hole in the sky a dark blue burial hovercar descends and docks
% to Planet Express third etage. Its door opens, and a dark figure emerges.
% The death robot commands the professor to come with him, just
% as Farnsworth has finished recording his final words.
%
Farnsworth: Good bye, cruel world! Good bye, cruel lamp. Good bye cruel
velvet drapes, lying together what appears to be some sort of
cruel muslin and the chutin curtain pompom tails, cruel though
they may be...Oh!
%
% Fed up with this, the death robot takes Farnsworth on his shoulders
% and leaves the Planet Express building.
%
% On the next morning, the crew watches the professors last message.
%
Farnsworth: Now that I've got nothing to live for, I've alerted the
sunset squad robots to take me away. I know you're all very
upset, especially Bender.
Bender: Well, life goes on...except for you! Hahahaha!
Farnsworth: Im sure Bender has just made a comic remark, but he doesn't
know I taped over his soap operas to record this message.
[message ends]
Bender: You Bastard!
Fry: We've gotta get him back!
Cubert: Impossible. Noone knows where they take those old geezers.
Fry: Nothing is impossible! You'd know that if you really took
after the professor, like I do.
Cubert: You're his uncle,johnny, he takes after you!
Fry: You... What?
Cubert: Wait a second, that means I also take after you. Ahhrgh!
Leela: Quiet. I think I know how to find the professor.
Bender: [dramatically] Lay it on us, Big Boots.
%
% The Smelloskope is taken to use. Leela smellsearches the sky.
%
Leela: If the smelloscope can pick up the professors odor, we
may have a chance to save him.
Cubert: I think not. As you probably don't know, odor is made out
of particles which can't travel through the vacuum of space.
[Bender electroshocks Cubert] Ohaahhrgh! Leela: I'm zeroing in on him.Bingay! Mossballs! Letters to the
editor! It's the professor!
Bender: [dramatically] To the flying machine!
%
% The PE ship zooms through the void. Instead of guns the smelloscope
% is mounted. Fry operates it.
%
Fry: To the left. No, to the up. U-turn! U-turn!
Cubert: We'll never find this place. Robots are very good at
keeping secrets.
Bender: No, we're not, you little bedwetter. Oh, sorry.
Leela: There it is, the near death star.
%
% The ship lands on a steel planet with massive spikes protruding out of
% it. Leela and Bender get into death robot cloaks.
%
Leela: Okay. We tell them the professor escaped, and we are bringing
him back. Fry, you have to dress up like a hundred and sixty
year old man.
Fry: I'm on it.
%
% He pulls his trousers to his chest and start mubling incoherently.
%
Cubert: My god! The illusion is so perfect! I almost forgot I was
looking at an *idiot*!
Leela: Now, when they ask for an DNA sample...
Fry: I like to see them find it.
Cubert: This plan is impossible. We don't even have a sample of
the professors DNA.
Bender: I think I know where we will get some.
%
% He pulls out a giantic syringe and aproaches Cubert, who realizes
% just seconds to late what Bender's up to. A loud scream fills the
% ship.
%
% Death Planet, on the way to Guest Drop-Off.
% Fry wears the professsors glasses and lab coat. Cubert is hidden under
% the coat, making Fry look like a hunchback.
%
Cubert: Why do I have to be the hump?
Fry: Because you're too ugly to be a wart.
%
% All laugh, naturally except Cubert.
% They pass the huge Guest reception machinerie, where thousands of
% old people get stripped naked, washed und rocker-chair seated.
%
Leela: Your medicare dollars at work.
%
% They arrive a gate with gatebots an armed guard robots.
%
Gatebot 1: Halt! Identify this guest.
Leela: Uh, this is Professor Hubert Farnsworth. He escaped.
Gatebot 1: Escaped? Noone escapes.
Gatebot 2: This guest does not look a hundred and sixty.
Fry: What? I'm old! Listen! (old voice) Hey you kids, get off
the lawn!
Gatebot 1: Hm. It is true that old people are often concerned that there
are children on their lawns.
Gatebot 2: There's no denying that, but we still need to verify his
identity with an DNA sample.
%
% Bender presents a glass labled "Tissue sample", with about 1 1/2 litres
% of blood.
%
Bender: Got a hot steamin' batch right here!
Gatebot 1: We only needed one cell.
Bender: Eh, keep the change, buddy.
Cubert: Stupid robot!
%
% The other guard robots get alarmed and rise their guns.
%
Gatebot 1: Did your hump just say something?
Fry: Ah, I...I've got talking hump syndrome.
Gatebot 1: Ah, THS.
%
% He applies a drop od Cuberts blood to the sample prober. A sign lits up.
%
Gatebot 1: Ah, Identity confirmed. Return the shambling shuffleboarder
to his room. 7152 Maple Drive.
Leela: Sounds nice.
Gatebot 1: Prepare to be suprised.
%
% The streets turn out to be huge gravestone like buildings, containing
% thousands of life suspending graves each.

could kill him.
%
% At this very moment a guardrobot on a armed saucer appears, ordering

% They crash trough the first guard and reach the escape tunnel, with the

% hard to the ground.

Leela: They blow up one of our engines.
Fry: Fix it! Fix it! Fix it! Fix it! Fix it! Fix it!
Leela: Only the professor knows how to fix it. We have to wake him up.

% They try wakening him by loud sirens, water an shuffeling. but to no avail.

Leela: We can't, you bastard, noone knows how it works. It's
impossible!
Cubert: [suddenly regaining consciousness]: Nothing is impossible!
I understand how the engines work now. It came to me in a
dream. The engines don't move the ship at all. [he starts
repairing the engines] The ship stays where it is, and
the engines move the universe around it!
Bender: That's a complete load!
Cubert: Nothing's a complete load. Not when you can imagine it,

Farnsworth: I'm as fry as a hundred and forty year old! [makes a small jump]
See? I only broke one ankle.
Fry: So what have they been doing to you in that awful drawer?
Farnsworth: Oh, they had me hooked up in a bizarre virtual world, that
seemed absolutly real.
Amy: What was it like.
Farnsworth: It was as though I was living in a facility in Florida with
hundreds of other old people. All day long we'd play bingo,
eat oatmeal and wait for our children to call [Crew groans]
Leela: It's a hundred times more horrible than anything I could imagine!
Farnsworth: Oh my yes, thank you all for saving me, especially you, my
little clone. No matter what you decide to do with your life,
I'm still proud of you. [hugs Cubert]
Cubert: I've already decided. Dad, when I grow up, I wanna be just

Schroedinger's Kit-Kat Club
In a 1999 interview with WiReD, Matt Groening said, "We created a character named Cubert who will anticipate fan complaints about the show's inconsistencies, and then will address them within the show." I take this to mean that there can't be any animation, continuity, or other goofs.
French has become an "incomprehensible dead language." Notice that in the pilot [1ACV01], they said "neuf" in Paris when counting down to New Year's 2000, but they said "nine" in Paris when counting down to New Year's 3000. Sacre bleu!
