Mark 7-G is a robot that replaces Hermes after he fires himself for being the lowest rated employee at Planet Express. Mark 7-G is quickly accepted by the rest of the crew, except for Zoidberg, who is angered that they have moved on from Hermes so quickly.
Later, Hermes returns to Planet Express with a robotic harpoon implanted into his chest, and asks Mark 7-G to obtain a box of files from the top shelf of the kitchen. He fails to do so, due to his small arms and lack of legs, plus wide body frame. Hermes successfully gets the box down with his harpoon, but is again made to feel useless when he cannot retrieve the Professor's teeth from the kitchen sink.
Bender suggests he should get an extendo-arm implant to be able to perform such tasks, to which he is against at first, but quickly changes his mind when Mark 7-G suggests he should get an extendo-arm upgrade too. Mark 7-G is not seen again, presumably due to Planet Express re-hiring Hermes to replace him.
Production
Mark 7-G was first seen in a design released by Countdown to Futurama on 9 June 2012.
