Futurama
Season 7 Episode 7 The Six Million Dollar Mon:
Hermes does a performance review of the Planet Express staff, vowing to
fire the most inefficient employee. This turns out to be himself, and
he’s replaced by a bureaucratic robot. In order to reclaim his job and
be more efficient, he starts augmenting himself with robotic parts. It
starts with a harpoon in his chest, before he eventually is almost
entirely robotic. He eventually wants to get a robot brain installed by
Professor Farnsworth, who digs up the brain of the psychopathic stabbing
robot Roberto, who was killed after he threatened to steal LaBarbara’s
skin.
Hermes eventually gets his robot brain, though
his human brain is put back in his old body that Zoidberg kept and was
using as a ventriloquist’s dummy. Roberto is felled when he tries to eat
Hermes’ skin, which melts him when it proves to be too spicy thanks to
years of LaBarbara’s Jamaican cooking.
