off for the face on Mars, one of the two entrances to the Martian reservation. Brannigan botches the negotiations, and the Martians call up another dust storm, which engulfs Amy. Kif jumps on the back of Amy's buggalo and flies it into the whirlwind, recovering Amy. The Martians, impressed by Kif's ability to ride a buggalo, call off the storm and offer peace. Unfortunately, when smoking the Martian peace pipe, Kif chokes on the smoke, angering the Martians. The Martians sentence him to be crushed by the bead they traded the planet for. As the bead lowers from the ceiling, the crew discovers that the "bead" is a gigantic diamond. When they inform the Martian chief of the bead's value, the Martians call off the execution, and leave Mars to find a planet they can purchase. The Wongs cannot believe Kif saved Amy, and credit Zapp with the rescue. On the Wongs' porch, Kif still feels bad as Amy's family still don't like him, to which she replies that if they liked him, she would not. They kiss while the buggalo stampede and shake the ground, and Kif writes in his diary that he "just made love for the second time". Cultural references R.J. and Joe, attendees at the Wong barbeque, resemble cigarette mascots Marlboro Man and Joe Camel. Zapp introduces himself to the Wong family as "The Man With No Name", a reference to Clint Eastwood's character in the Dollars Trilogy of films. The scene where Zapp throws the Slurm can on the ground and the Martian sheds a tear is a reference to the famous Keep America Beautiful commercial broadcast in the early 1970s. The Native Martians selling their land for a supposedly worthless bead is a reference to the myth that the native inhabitants of Manhattan sold the island to the Dutch for twenty-four dollars worth of beads and trinkets. The Wong ranch is based on the ranch in the movie Giant. Bender sings a parody of the theme to Bonanza, with lyrics "We've got a right to pick a little fight with rustlers. Somebody wants to pick a fight with us, he'd better bite my ass!"
