About this "Futurama" episode:
"31st Century Fox" is the twelfth episode of the seventh season of the animated sitcom Futurama. It originally aired on Comedy Central on August 29, 2012.
After a mission in which the uniforms of the Planet Express crew are ripped to shreds by a gigantic moth, Professor Farnsworth and Hermes reluctantly agree (after having their own clothes ripped apart) to buy new ones. They pay a visit to a clothing store and eventually buy a set of uniforms apparently tailor-made for them, complete with the Planet Express logo. For his part, Bender purchases classical fox hunting attire and soon after joins a hunting club, dragging Fry and Leela along with him. Leela makes ardent protests about the injustice of such an activity much to the dismay of the Master of the Hunt and the other hunting club members. During the hunt, it is revealed that the fox they are hunting is actually a robot, as the hunting dogs and horses are, a realization that left Bender in shock. This leads Bender and Leela into launching a protest movement called B.A.R.F. (Bender's Animal Robot Front), culminating in attempts to legally abolish the injustice against robotic animals. Though B.A.R.F. has succeeded in banning off the butchering of robotic animal flesh and liberating robotic chickens from laying eggs as they were designed to, they failed to outlaw robot foxing via injunction, due to the presiding judge being a member of the hunting club. Refusing to give up, Bender then attempts less legal means including kidnapping the next Robot Fox to be hunted and taking its place in the cage. The Robot Fox is taken back to Planet Express and quickly becomes a hit with the crew, until it rips apart all of their new uniforms, kills Amy's beloved chicken, scratches Fry in the face, tears up Leela's sign and flees, prompting Fry and Leela to begin hunting it.
Meanwhile, Bender is discovered the next morning with the fox hunt about to start. His plan backfires horribly as the Master of the Hunt makes Bender the new target of the hunt. He flees into the forest and meets with the Robot Fox, who 'assists' him out of a leg trap (by chewing off his foot). Together, they manage to evade several traps laid by the hunters, and eventually manage to catch the Master of the Hunt alone with a tripwire fashioned from Bender's mangled leg wires. Fry and Leela catch up to them as Bender is poised with a rifle aimed at the Master of the Hunt. However, Bender refuses to kill him (mostly because of Fry and Leela's presence, as Bender attempts to kill without any witnesses). The Master of the Hunt then takes the opportunity to reclaim the rifle and is about to shoot Bender, but the Robot Fox attacks and kills him, revealing the Master himself to be a robot as well. This prompts Bender to state that robot-on-robot violence is OK. The final scene shows the Master of the Hunt's head in Planet Express' lounge where Fry, Leela, Bender, and the Robot Fox are all relaxing in peace.
