Stephen William Hawking is a member of the Vice Presidential Action Rangers and a brilliant scientist. In a What-If scenario, he is shown to be a regular at Panucci's Pizza and often steals credit for other people's discoveries, frequently naming them after himself. He, Fry and the rest VPAR were sucked into the Fry-hole at the end of the scenario.
In the future, like Al Gore, his jar is rocket powered. He still can't speak so his jar acts as a robot with the same speaking voice. He has the ability to shoot lasers from his eyes which can temporarily stun people, though he never knew he could do that until he actually did it.

Trivia
- Even though in real life, Hawking is completely paralyzed, in animated form, his eyes blink and he makes some proper facial reactions. This mistake was made on his appearances on The Simpsons as well, though in his appearance in The Beast with a Billion Backs he appears to be completely paralyzed.
