out of disgust after she explains how sexual intercourse between merpeople works. As he runs to try and catch up with his friends, the Planet Express ship leaves without him. Seeing that Bender's hook is still attached to the tether, Fry grabs hold and is dragged behind the ship. The colossal-mouth bass returns, and is hooked when it swallows Fry whole. The bass stays caught, and Fry returns to the surface with the rest of the crew. Cultural references The mermaid, Umbriel, is named after one of Uranus's moons, which the production team chose to do because another of Uranus's moons provided the namesake for Ariel from The Little Mermaid. Donovan guest stars as the narrator of the documentary describing how Atlanta got to the bottom of the ocean, with said documentary being a parody of the spoken verse in his 1968 song "Atlantis". The montage of Fry's date with Umbriel is set to the chorus of the same song.
