The Planet Express crew attends a taping of Elzar's television show, much to the joy of Bender, who enjoys cooking.
In order to make up for the incident, Elzar invites the entire crew to dinner at his restaurant, serving them the most expensive and appetizing things he has to offer.
Unfortunately for Bender, the whole job turns sour when the target of the Mafia's long planned Zuban Cigar heist is the Planet Express Ship.
In an intense space battle, the Robot Mafia destroy the fuel line, and board the ship, where they blindfold Fry, and tie him up with Leela.
When the Robot Mafia fly away, Bender ties himself up next to Leela and Fry, and makes up a crazy story to remain unexposed.
