Meanwhile, Leela and Chaz are going to Elzar's Fine Cuisine, where Chaz manages to get a table without a reservation - Leela is genuinely impressed.

Act II: "Now it's personal!"

Philip J. Fry is a dim-witted man from the 20th century who gets frozen for 1,000 years, thawing out on New Year's Eve 2999. His character is largely an attempt by the show's creators to make the connection between the 20th century and the 31st century much easier for the viewers.
After Fry transports himself and the brains to an alternate universe, the brains send him back in time, to the night in 1999 when Fry was frozen. Nibbler is there at the cryogenics lab, hiding under a desk, when future-Fry arrives.

Upon seeing Game of Tones more times than I'd care to admit, I now have mixed feelings about it. Up until the final scene we're in Fry's dream, which we know he has the ability to control. How many of those good moments were him rewriting his memories to be more loving than they actually were?
