Quotes
Leela's grandmother: I was just a young girl, drain angels they called us. When the ship started going down, my mother grabbed me and made for the nearest Life Car. But the places were all taken by surface passangers. As my mother held me tight, I suddenly felt the gentle tap of a cane on my face. I turned to see the kindly smile of Mr. Astor. Thanks to your husband's humanity, I lived to raise my own daughter, and she, a daughter in turn.
Turanga Leela: Mom, you never told me about this.
Turanga Munda: Are you kidding? My mother's nuts.
