Fresh off ripping space-time a new one at the end of "Bender's Big Score," the Planet Express crew is back to mend the tear in reality, or (hopefully) at least not make it worse. Beyond the tear, though, lurks a being of inconceivable...tentacularity. What will become of Earth, and indeed, our universe, when faced with the Beast with a Billion Backs?

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The title parodies 1950s sci-fi 'The Beast with a Million Eyes' but ups the body horror ante significantly.
Yivo's mass-dating-everyone plot was Groening's direct jab at organized religion's 'universal love' rhetoric — the tentacles made it network-approvable somehow.
