While stopping to refuel the Planet Express
ship, Fry decides to buy an egg salad sandwich from the
truck stop vending machine. Defying warning, Fry eats the
"fresh" snack and winds up with worms. But these
aren't just any worms, they're smart worms, and they're
changing Fry by the minute. Recognizing the worms as an
unknown threat, the Professor decides that he and the Planet
Express gang, sans Leela, must transport themselves into
Fry's body and combat the migrating maggots.
Back in the real world,
Leela begins falling in love with the new and improved Fry.
The worms have made him stronger, smarter and eager to profess
his love for Leela. Leela decides that the worm-enhanced
Fry is too good to lose, so she transports into Fry and
stops the Professor from killing the worms. With his newfound
intelligence, Fry realizes that Leela is only in love with
him because of the worm improvements. So Fry decides to
exhume the pesky parasites and test whether Leela will love
him for him. And the answer is
no.
