Line 74 ⟶ 73:
* [[Sex Bot]]: Six
** And this will give you an idea of the caliber of the crew on this ship: She doubles as the ship's science officer, because she's STILL the most intelligent and best educated member of the crew, INCLUDING the ship's built-in AI.
* [[Shout-Out]]: To EVERYTHING.

Line 82 ⟶ 81:

*** Or four, if you count the one time they aired the short in [[Sci Fi]] and [[Terry Farrell]] redubbed Six's lines.
Line 90 ⟶ 89:
* [[Ugly Guy, Hot Wife]]: Chode is in an active relationship with Six. Basically, a short, fat, purple, multi-eyed alien, manages to get with an incredibly hot space-babe.
** Isn't that mostly cuz Six is a sex-bot that he stole.
*** And reprogramedreprogrammed as the science officer. That's the important part, she likes him because he gave her a purpose beyond nerd fantasy.
*** Also he treats her with respect. Well, not respect, but as close to respect as Chode is capable of.
** Also since the universe is big there are plenty of species who actually consider ''Chode'' the attractive one and Six ugly
