Part 1

- The Professor plans for Bill Nye.
Objectives
- Have The Professor Tidy Up the Place (6s)
- Have Fry Watch Old Science Videos (6s)
Rewards[]
Story[ | ]
Good news, everyone! My good friend Bill Nye is visiting New New York. Let's make sure we give him a warm welcome.
Bill Nye the Science Guy? Or Bill Nye the Politics Guy?
Bill Nye the Politics Guy is no longer my friend.
He ruined every dinner party I ever invited him to.
Bill Nye's coming to town? That nerd jerk!
What do you have against Bill Nye?
He rejected my application for a job as his TV assistant. I was going to be "Amy Wong the Science Wonk".
Wong and "Wonk" don't really rhyme.
That's what HE said! Smeesh, it's science, not poetry!
Part 2
Description[]
- The crew goes on a mission.
Objectives
- Build Hypnowave Observatory (6s)
- Complete the Head in the Game Mission
Rewards[]
Story[ | ]
Now remember: Bill Nye is a very particular houseguest. We'll need to make room for his bow tie, his blue lab coat, and his honorary degrees.
How many honorary degrees does he have?
At least five thousand. Sometimes I think people give him honorary degrees just so they can wear their academic regalia.
They have a point. If you're wearing a long black robe, nobody cares if you skip the underwear.
It's those danged science deniers. They're protesting Bill Nye's tour to promote science.
But why did they attack OUR ship?
I may have painted his science tour hashtag on the hull of the ship.
Part 3
Description[]
- Bill Nye arrives.
Objectives
Rewards[]
Story[ | ]
Is it true Bill Nye's here? I hate that guy!
You too? What don't YOU like about him?
But aren't you mostly made of science?
Oh, please, spare me your human "logic". What makes you so sure I even exist?
Good to see you, old friend! The work you're doing to promote science is much appreciated.
I know - especially by the people who award honorary degrees! Did you know I have over five thousand of them?
I don't have any. All my degrees are real, and they're for actual science. Joyless, tedious science.
Please, Bill, take me with you on your space adventures!
Part 4
Description[]
- Bill Nye prepares for his tour.
Objectives
Rewards[]
Story[ | ]
Miss, I understand you're the Professor's helper. Could you help me prepare for my lecture tour?
You don't recognize me, do you? I'm Amy Wong! Years ago you rejected my application to be your assistant!
Wong?... Wong... Of course! You're the young woman whose name doesn't rhyme with anything useful!
Did you ever change your name to "Bussistant" like I suggested?
Listen, Amy, I know you're upset you didn't get to be my assistant. But you earned your Ph.D., and you should be proud of that.
I'm sure you'll make many important scientific discoveries. You've probably published some already!
I really haven't published anything. But I did save Earth from an invasion of hyperintelligent mind-controlling kittycats.
Part 5
Description[]
- Bill Nye takes on the science deniers.
Objectives
- Have Fry Engage in Debate (4h 0m 0s)
- Have The Professor Look Up New Developments (4h 0m 0s)
- Complete the "Blind with Science" Mission
Rewards[]
Story[ | ]
If you believe, as I do, that science is vital to our understanding of the universe, you have to help me take on the science deniers.
Does that mean we'll have to engage them in meaningful debate? 'Cause I'm not much of a debater.
Well, then, let's let our rayguns do the debating for us, shall we?
We've already made a lot of progress getting through to the science deniers.
What made them change their minds?
I showed them my baking-soda volcano.
Then I took it apart to prove it wasn't magic and didn't require divine intervention.
That convinced a good ten percent of them.
Part 6
Description[]
- Bill Nye and the Professor bond.
Objectives
- Have Bill Nye Compare Performance Stats (3h 0m 0s)
- Have The Professor Improve His Creations (4h 0m 0s)
Rewards[]
Story[ | ]
Your dedication to the cause of science continually amazes me. I feel like I've wasted my life by comparison.
Don't sell yourself short, Hubert. You've created a lot of great doomsday devices.
Failures! All failures! In every case, I was trying and failing to build a doomsweek device!
Thanks to your encouragement, I've finally created a working doomsweek device, capable of destroying multiple universes at once!
Oh my, yes! If this thing destroys your universe, you'll know it! I call it the Multimageddon NSX Bill Nye Edition, after the man who made all this destruction possible.
You think you could move the "Bill Nye" part up to the beginning?
Part 7
Description[]
- Bill Nye pushes Fry.
Objectives
Rewards[]
Story[ | ]
Do you think I could ever be a scientist?
That depends. Are you willing to work hard and dedicate yourself to learning?
Not really. I was actually just hinting that I'd like to try on your lab coat. Can I do that?
That depends. Are you willing to work hard and dedicate yourself to learning?
Even though science isn't your forte, you can still fight for the truth.
That sounds like a lot of work.
Just cheering us scientists on would help too.
I still sense effort will be involved.
Part 8
Description[]
- Bill Nye give a lecture.
Objectives
- Have Bill Nye Give a Speech About Science (3h 0m 0s)
- Complete the "Class is in Session" Mission
Rewards[]
Story[ | ]
I'm about to kick off my tour, but there are still a lot of science deniers protesting me.
Perhaps your eloquence will make them see reason.
So far all it's done is increase the size of their throwing tomatoes.
Have you considered colorful charts and sock puppets? That's how I win over my physics students.
Guess what, Hubert? Most of the science deniers have just disappeared! Weird.
Not weird at all! I used the unlimited resources of the vast socialist-scientist conspiracy to deport them to a secret space prison.
Oh dear. It appears I've said too much. Would you mind terribly if I killed you, Bill?
