Quotes 

• Leela : I'm sorry you had to see that, Fry. Usually I keep my sadness pent up inside where it can fester quietly as a mental illness.

  Fry : Yeah. That's what I do with my stupidness.

• Prof. Hubert J. Farnsworth : Good news, everyone! You all know the orphanarium where Leela grew up?

  Fry : Sure. We talk about it all the time.

  Leela : Really?

  Fry : No. Burn!

• Leela : All I really wanted was a mom and dad, to hold me and stroke my hair and tell me they love me.

  Fry : Then today is your lucky day, because I happen to be a holding, stroking, loving machine. Also spanking.

  Leela : That's not remotely what I had in mind.

• [Leela emerges from the mutagenic lake with an octopus on her head] 

  Leela : The lake didn't mutate me. What is going on here?

  Octopus : It worked for me. I used to be a little blonde girl named Virginia.

• Leela : Who the hell are you?

  Turanga Munda : No one. And watch your language, young lady.

• Fry : Leela, don't shoot!

  Leela : But they killed my parents!

  Fry : Close.

  [removes the hoods from the mutants] 

  Leela : They are my parents!

• Leela : Wait a minute. Why aren't you gonna kill us anymore?

  Bender : Yeah. What are you, chicken?

  [clucks] 

  Fry : Shut up, you two. We can kill ourselves when we get home.

• Leela : Mr Vogel?, Remember me ?

  Warden Vogel : Leela., You're worthless and no one will ever love you.

  [both laughing and hugging] 

  Leela : You used to say that all the time.

  Warden Vogel : Those were happier days.

• Leela : And what about this? Where did you get this bracelet? Did you steal it from me when I was a baby? Or from my parents? You robbed my parents, didn't you? I bet you sick mutants killed them! My parents were confused aliens lost on Earth and you killed them! Is that it? Admit it!

  Turanga Morris : Yes. We killed them.

  Turanga Munda : You guessed the truth.

  Leela : Argh! Because of you, I'll never meet my real parents! I'll kill you!

  Turanga Munda : That would be best.

• Leela : What is all this? Am I a game to you, or some kind of even more boring Truman Show? Do you believe I'm your Messiah? Your mutant Dalai Lama? Stop me if I guess it.

• Leela : I told a whole crowd today that being an orphan made me strong... But all I really wanted was a mom and dad; to hold me, and stroke my hair, and tell me they loved me...

  Fry : [Grins confidently]  Then today's your lucky day, because I happen to be a holding, stroking, lovin' machine. Also spankin'.

  Leela : [Looks down glumly]  That isn't even *close* to what I had in mind...

  Fry : [His tone becomes more serious]  Well, anyway...

  [Puts his hand comfortingly on her shoulder] 

  Fry : Just remember that people care about you.

  Leela : I know...
