Bob's Burgers: "Some Like It Bot"

WORKING

Bob's Burgers: "Some Like It Bot Part 1: Eighth Grade Runner", "Some Like It Bot Part 2: Judge-bot Day." Running number 237 and 238, season 12, episodes 21 and 22, 15 and 22 May 2022. Simon Chong, director, part 1; Loren Bouchard & Nora Smith, script, part 1.[1] Ryan Mattos, director, part 2; Loren Bouchard, Jim Dauterive, and Nora Smith, script. [2] Fox-TV.

The main title alludes to SOME LIKE IT HOT (1959).[3] Combining the IMDb entry with the one on the Bob's Bergers Fandom wiki, the plot for Part 1 is given as (with IMDb correction), "When Tina's new shirt is ridiculed by [... Tammy Larsen] and Jocelyn in a Wagstaff [High School] News segment called 'Wow or Weird,' she turns to her erotic friend-fiction and writes about a futuristic world in which she is a robot."[4][5] The future dystopian world, as implied by the episode subtitle, is a parody of BLADE RUNNER. Part of the fun for people who've seriously discussed BLADE RUNNER is that the film's logic is improved upon in that the robots of Bob's Bergers are mostly robotic and are not killed when in trouble but recycled, with their memories wiped. Note that the news segment is on in-school TV and features a large and expensive touch-screen.
