[edit] Act I: "Make a women out of me!"
Bender disguises himself as fembot named Coilette, in order to cheat in the robot olympics. Having won five gold medals for the fictional country of Robonia, it is suddently revealed that the winners will have their oil tested to confirm that they are really fembots. Desperate to hold onto the medals, Bender asks Professor Farnsworth to replace his testosteroil with fembot lubricants to deceive the judges. The Professor proceeds with the proceedure, depsite the protests of Amy and Leela. With the con complete, the characters return to Planet Express, where Bender is invited to appear on the show Late night with Humourbot 5.0. When on the show, Bender/Coilette strikes up a relationship with the acting robot Calculon. The two arrange to meet for dinner that night.
[edit] Act II: "Will you marry me?"
The scene shifts to Elzar's resturant, where Coilette and Calculon are dining. Calculon says that he wishes to spend some quality time with Coilette. Bender is initally aghast at this, until Calculon mentions he happens to own the world's largest yacht. Coilette accepts, and the two spend the days together. The tale returns to Planet Express, showing the gifts Calculon is showering Bender with, a vase of puppies amongst them. After a brief exchange between Leela, Amy and Bender, Calculon appears with Boxy and proposes to Coilette. Bender accepts and Calculon leaves.
[edit] Act III: "I still got it!"
The story then cuts to Fry telling Bender how much he'll miss him. Bender states he plans to use the marriage to scam Calculon for half his fortune. Leela is disapproving, but Bender is dismissive of her concerns. The next thing we see is Coilette and Calculon in a hot-air ballon, where Calculon presents her with the remote control to his heart and offers to give up acting for her, as he truly loves her. Coilette begins to weep.
Back at Planet Express, we see Bender weeping and admitting that he cannot go through with the scam, no longer wishing to hurt Calculon. Leela offers to help, on condition that Bender will forever return to being a man-bot. When Bender agrees, Leela states there is no way to stop the marrage without hurting him, but as an actor, he is used to 'soap opera pain'.
We cut to the wedding, the characters wearing a variety of absurd costumes. As the ceremony begins, Coilette faints, causing Calculon to call for a doctor. Zoidberg appears on cue, diagnosing a case of African Hydraulic Fever, an often fatal disease. A short series of convoluted events follows, culminating in Coilette faking deadly impalement on a spear and Calculon swearing to honour her memory with a film.
Cut to Planet Express once more, and Calculon's movie is on the TV. Bender and The Professor are completing his change back to a man-bot. As Bender returns to his old self, the rest of the male characters leave, complaining about the emotive movie, Bender looks back with tear-filled eyes. Leela and Amy turn, suprised, and question him. Bender replies that they don't dress trampy enough and the closing credits come on.
