In Season 2, Episode 10, a brief cutaway joke featuring Bender has become one of the show's most memorable moments. In the episode, Fry and Amy get together after a mission on Mercury and tell the crew about it the next morning at a meeting. The entire crew reacts in their own comedic ways, with Zoidberg commenting how jealous he is and that he would do anything to get out of his depressing loneliness.
Hearing that there's money to be made off of people looking for love, Bender starts conjuring up a scheme to do just that, only for the scene to cut to Bender, Leela, and a pair of robots stereotypically stylized as sex workers in a courtroom. The judge tells Bender he owes $500 and time served. Annoyed, Bender tells Leela to pay the judge as he walks out of the court with the other robots following. As they leave, they tell him, "Bender, honey, we love you," only for him to respond, "Shut up, baby, I know it!" John DiMaggio, the voice of Bender, delivers the line with perfect timing, and Bender's goofy walk as he swaggers away amps up the joke even more.
