Dialogue[]

The Hey-teful Eight-Legs Pt. 1[]

Character Dialogue
Snake Icon Yo, professor, what is that thing?
Professor Frink Happy Icon Tremble before my steampunk arachno-monstrosity!
Snake Icon It's steam-powered? Why would you ever choose steam as your power source?
Professor Frink Icon Because it's scarier this way!
Snake Icon Maybe I'm not getting this. What's “scary” about utilizing outmoded technology?
Professor Frink Angry Icon I'll squash you for that!

The Hey-teful Eight-Legs Pt. 2[]

Character Dialogue
Snake Sad Icon Like, ouch!
Professor Frink Happy Icon You see?! My colossal steam spider works! Ha-ha-ha!!!
Snake Icon Actually, my pain comes from imagining how much more efficient it'd be with an internal combustion engine.
Snake Icon What's your fuel source, dude? How do you boil the water?
Professor Frink Embarrassed Icon Coal. It burns coal.
Snake Sad Icon Oh great. So it's both an engineering AND environmental disaster.
Professor Frink Angry Icon Who's the nerd here?

The Hey-teful Eight-Legs Pt. 3[]

Character Dialogue
Snake Icon ...I'm just saying that a mechanical steering system like yours will never approach the reliability of fly-by-wire electronics.
Snake Icon The weight savings alone would justify the R&D layout.
Snake Icon And it's not like you'd have to fabricate the parts yourself. Off-the-shelf components would work.
Professor Frink Angry Icon STOP GIVING ME ENGINEERING ADVICE!
Snake Icon Just let me see your blueprints. I can help!
Professor Frink Angry Icon Stand still!
Snake Icon Why? So you can cough coal smoke at me until I develop asthma? God!

The Hey-teful Eight-Legs Pt. 4[]

Character Dialogue
Professor Frink Sad Icon My steam spider is a failure. You can go about your outlawry, Mr. Snake.
Snake Icon No, bro, I'm here for you. Let's roll up our sleeves and make this thing work.
Snake Icon What about going full-on electric? You could be the Tesla of giant killer mecha-spiders.
Professor Frink Sad Icon It won't work. Lead-acid batteries are too heavy.
Snake Icon ...
Professor Frink Sad Icon What?
Snake Icon LEAD-ACID? Is this the 1990s? Uh, hello? Lithium-ion has, like, a billion times the energy density.
Professor Frink Angry Icon I knew that!
Snake Icon You are the sorriest excuse for a mad scientist I have ever met.
Professor Frink Angry Icon I'll squash you yet!
