               [Opening Credits. Caption: Hey TiVo! Suggest This!]

               
               [Planet Express: Farnsworth's Lab. The Professor hits his What 
               If? machine with a hammer.]
 
               
                                     FARNSWORTH
                         There. I've finished fine tuning my 
                         What If? machine. It can answer any 
                         What If? question, accurate to within 
                         1/10th of a plausibility unit.
 
               
                                     LEELA
                         That's so plausible I can't believe 
                         it!
 
               
                                     FARNSWORTH
                         Who wants the machine to show them an 
                         alternate reality?
 
               
               [Bender steps forward.]

               
                                     BENDER
                         I wanna know what would happen if I 
                         were human. I mean, being a robot's 
                         great but we don't have emotions and 
                         sometimes that makes me very sad.
 
                         
               
                                     FARNSWORTH
                         Oh lordy loo! There he goes again. Well, 
                         let's give baby what he wants.  What 
                         if Bender were human?
 
               
               [He pulls a string.]

               
               [What If? Planet Express: Farnsworth's Lab. Bender is strapped 
               to a table with the crew gathered around him.]
 
               
                                     FARNSWORTH
                         Good news everyone. I've discovered 
                         a way to make Bender human using a process 
                         I call "reverse fossilisation."
 
               
                                     LEELA
                         How does it work?

               
                                     FARNSWORTH
                         Well, in regular fossilisation, flesh 
                         and bone turn to minerals. Realising 
                         that, it was a simple matter to reverse 
                         the process. I've already tested it 
                         by turning the toaster into a racoon.
 
                         
               
               [He puts the racoon on a table. It runs around a bit before two 
               slices of toast pop out of it. Fry takes a bite.]
 
               
                                     FRY
                         Kinda gamey.

               
                                     FARNSWORTH
                         Are you ready Bender?

               
                                     BENDER
                         I dunno. I'm beginning to have second 
                         thoughts -
 
               
               [Farnsworth throws a switch and Bender is zapped with electricity 
               in a fashion resembling the countless Frankenstein films. He 
               slowly starts to take human form. He grows hair, a nose and...]
 
               
               
                                     HERMES
                         Cover your shame mon!

               
               [He puts some underpants on Bender. The table tips up and human 
               Bender walks off. Everyone gasps.]
 
               
                                     FARNSWORTH
                         It worked! Eat it everyone who never 
                         won a Nobel Prize! And that includes 
                         you Amy!
 
               
               [Amy cries. Bender looks at his new self.]

               
                                     BENDER
                         So this is the human body huh? Neat! 
                          Hey, my antenna's gone.  Nah it just 
                         moved. I'm not getting good reception 
                         on it though. Maybe if I wiggle it around 
                         a little.
 
               
                                     FRY (WHISPERING)
                         Bender no! You'll make God cry.

               
                                     BENDER
                         Well lets see what kind of things thing 
                         body can do.  Hey that's pretty fun. 
                          Being human is great!
 
               
               [He vomits again. Zoidberg cheers.]

               
                                     ZOIDBERG
                         Hooray, its just like Mardis Gras!
 
                         
               
               [What If? Planet Express: Meeting Room. Bender walks out of the 
               men's room.]
 
               
                                     BENDER
                         Guy guys, you've gotta see this. You're 
                         not gonna believe it!
 
               
                                     LEELA
                         Bender it's OK to be pround but don;t 
                         be a show off.
 
               
               [Bender looks Amy up and down.]

               
                                     BENDER
                         Whoa, you look a lot better than you 
                         used to for some reason.
 
               
                                     AMY (SEXFULLY)
                         You're not so bad yourself big boy.
 
                         
               
               [She kisses him.]

                         Hey that felt great!  Nah its not working 
                         anymore.
 
               
                                     FARNSWORTH
                         Speak for yourself!

               
               [What If? O'Zorgnax's Pub. Bender downs a glass of beer and lights 
               up a cigar.]
 
               
                                     BENDER
                         Whoa, this is awesome!

               
                                     LEELA
                         Bender you drank and smoked when you 
                         were a robot.
 
               
                                     BENDER
                         But now its bad for me! Woo!

               
               [He picks up another glass. Fry slides a box of nachos onto the 
               bar.]
 
               
                                     FRY
                         Speaking of which, try these nachos.
 
                         
               
               [Bender tastes one and his eyes widen with delight. He starts 
               scoffing the rest of them.]

                         Mmm, why didn't anyone tell me tasting 
                         things tasted so good?  What's going 
                         on? That rhythm. Its doing something 
                         to my human butt.
 
               
               [He stands up and starts to dance still holding his beer, cigar 
               and some nachos.]

                         Bender, part of being human is having 
                         self control.
 
               
                                     BENDER
                         Oh my God I bet I can eat nachos and 
                         go to the bathroom at the same time!
 
                         
               
               [He picks up the box of nachos but everyone else restrains him.]

                         Come Bender, its time to go home and 
                         rest. I need you in top shape next week 
                         when I present you to the Nobel Prize 
                         committee. Bender?
 
               
               [Bender climbs out of a window.]

               a glass of beer and a hot dog.]

               rest of the crew are at the Nobel Prize committee for the judging. 
               Farnsworth is on the stage at a podium trying to buy some time 
               while Amy and Zoidberg sit at a table together.]

                         Uh as I've said before, I used reverse 
                         fossilisation, which is the reverse 
                         of regular, uh...
