"A billion robots' lives are going to be extinguished! Ooh, the Jedis are going to feel this one... "
Farnsworth

Crimes of the Hot is the sixty-second episode of Futurama, guest starring the voice of Al Gore.

Synopsis

As Earth is unable to counter its rising temperature through the usual method (the dropping of a giant ice cube into the ocean), Gore leads an emergency conference in Kyoto, Japan, where Professor Farnsworth claims responsibility for the crisis. It seems love detoured him from observing proper emission standards on his prototype robot, and that could necessitate the destruction of all its "descendants." That includes Bender, who resigns himself to having a farewell blowout before being blown up.

Plot

Act I

A heat wave is striking Earth. The Planet Express crew try to take a dip in the pool with instant water, but Nibbler drinks it all. He belches chlorine gas which knocks out the organics and rusts Bender. Wanting to learn more, they watch an old video on global warming which explains that the mid 21st century government simply dropped ice in the ocean, but over time it took bigger chunks. Richard M. Nixon sends the crew to gather ice from Halley's comet but it is empty.

Global warming soon heats up the Earth so much that the ice caps have flooded. Randy created his own Noah's Ark, but his companion criticizes him for putting only same sex animals in it.

At the same time, Bender, noticing the turtles' migration to Holland, travels there to rescue one. He confides in his friends that he and the turtle share something: they can't get up if knocked on their backs.

A robot hover truck announces that all scientists are called to Kyoto to discuss how to deal with the situation. The host, Al Gore, offers a bag of sapphires to the scientist who can solve the crisis, intriguing the dark wizard attending the conference. Wernstrom uses a giant mirror to reflect half of the sun's ray but a stray asteroid alters its angle and the ray incinerates everything in its path. When it's Farnsworth's turn, he uses a memory ray to explain to everyone that the robots that consume alcohol and burp pollution he built for Mom's Friendly Robot Company years ago were the problem. The scientists determine that to save the Earth, they need to destroy all robots.

Nixon gathers all the robots on the Galápagos Islands for a "party", but despite the obviousness that it's a trap, Bender is willing to go. However, he accidentally lets slip that Nixon is going to destroy all robots, causing a panic. Nixon heads for space, meeting with Wernstrom, to prepare for the robots' destruction. Wernstrom had modified his mirror into an electromagnetic pulse array to permanently shut down all the robots. In return, Wernstrom is given the Headless Body of Spiro Agnew. Luckily, the Professor arrives to announce that he has come up with a plan to cool the Earth and save the robots at the same time. He instructs them all to vent their exhaust ports in the same direction, pushing the Earth further from the sun. However, Bender is knocked on his back and can't get up to help. Using his pet turtle's example, he gets up, lets out a huge exhaust and pushes the Earth out of the vicinity of the EMP device. Farnsworth is given the Polluting Medal of Pollution from Nixon. Now that there is an extra week on Earth, Nixon declares it "Robot Party Week". But as they begin partying, the robots emit fumes that choke everyone else.
