When Bender is lost in space, he becomes home and spiritual leader to a race of worshipers who misinterpret his wisdom. Written by Jeff Lindstrom
After a dogfight against space pirates, Bender accidentally gets drifted into endless space. Understanding that he cannot be saved, he looks for entertainment. Meanwhile, Fry is upset for loosing a friend but doesn't loose hope. While floating through endless space, Bender, to his surprise, encounters tiny organisms attached to his body who call him the metal God. Bender soon learns that being a god is not an easy job, and that everything he does has extreme consequences. This episode has a most entertaining perspective on God. It is similar to the Simpsons episode: "The Simpsons: Treehouse of Horror VII" - "The Genesis Tub" story - where Lisa creates a miniature world and becomes God too. 9 out of 10.
