Synopsis
The crew is sent on a mission to retrieve hallucinatory honey from space bees. (We learn this is how the previous crew died, which was briefly mentioned in the pilot.) On the mission, Fry is killed trying to save Leela. Leela feels so guilty, she consumes the honey and begins to hallucinate that Fry is still alive and trying to contact her.
