Story[ | ]
I remember you! You're Stephen Hawking, the supergenius physicist. What are you doing here?
I'm observing the Hypnowaves to understand them better.
So you can help us get rid of them?
No, I'm only interested in understanding them and writing a paper. You want them fixed, hire a supergenius engineer.
The Hypnowaves are tearing the universe apart bit by bit. If something isn't done soon, this could mean the end of existence as we know it.
Are you sure?
There's always the possibility of an error in my calculations.
That was sarcasm, you know.
Part 2
Description[]
- Stephen Hawking and the Professor disagree.
Objectives
- Have Stephen Hawking Test Out a Hypothesis (3h 0m 0s)
- Have The Professor Disagree with Stephen Hawking (3h 0m 0s)
Rewards[]
- 500

Story[ | ]
Stephen Hawking?! Who invited you?
The city of New New York. Mayor Poopenmeyer wants me to study the Hypnowaves.
I'm told that you're responsible, Farnsworth. It was your mistake that caused them.
I was under a toad's influence. It could happen to anyone!
The Hypnowaves constitute the biggest threat humanity has ever faced.
I disagree. Climate change is the biggest threat.
You're only saying that because you're responsible for the Hypnowaves.
I resent that! I'm responsible for a lot of climate change too!
Part 3
Description[]
- Stephen Hawking runs some tests.
Objectives
- Have Stephen Hawking Explore Wormhole ()
- Have Bender Assist Stephen Hawking (4h 0m 0s)
Rewards[]
- 500 250
Story[ | ]
I'll be running some Hypnowave tests. Would you mind helping me lift some heavy machinery?
Sure. Anything to help a celebrity.
I prefer to think of myself as a respected scientist.
Sure, whatever. As long as you mention my name on camera, I'll call you whatever you want.
Fascinating. The Hypnowaves are tearing through the universe faster than I thought possible.
How fast? Is it time to abandon all social norms and start looting?
No, no, no. This is no time to panic.
Too late! You've planted the seeds of fear and I've responded accordingly.
Part 4
Description[]
- Stephen Hawking goes viral.
Objectives
- Have Stephen Hawking Propose a New Theory (6h 0m 0s)
- Have Fry Look Confused (6h 0m 0s)
Rewards[]
- 500 250
Story[ | ]
What are you gonna do with your experimental results?
Report them to as many people as possible. I've already scheduled a press conference. How do I look?
Pretty good, I guess.
Good. Now help me practice turning dramatically from one camera to another.
My Hypnowave press conference has gone viral. It already has a million views.
That was fast. It took my groin-kick video five weeks to reach a million views.
I guess I shouldn't complain. After all, I still have a groin and you don't.
Spare me your pity. My groin was only holding me back.
Part 5
Description[]
- Stephen Hawking issues warnings.
Objectives
- Have Stephen Hawking Give a Lecture (8h 0m 0s)
- Have Amy Heed the Warning (8h 0m 0s)
Rewards[]
- 500 250
Story[ | ]
I've reached a remarkable conclusion: the pace at which Hypnowaves are engulfing the universe violates everything we think we know about physics.
That's terrible news!
Not for me. It virtually guarantees me a whole slew of science awards.
I've done my part as far as understanding the nature of the Hypnowaves. The rest is up to you.
But how do we stop them from spreading?
Beats me. Looks like the whole universe is going to hell in a handbasket.
The good news is, I've just finished building an emergency universe in my garage. So long, suckers.
