Marionettes Frinkorporated is a company that creates and sells robot duplicates of people.

History[edit]

When Superintendent Chalmers went to Moe's Tavern to drink away his annoyance over dealing with Principal Skinner, Carl spoke to him and learned about his issues. Carl then took Chalmers to Lenny's house, where Chalmers saw someone who looked exactly like Carl with Lenny. Carl explained that he had a robot duplicate of himself made by Marionettes Frinkorporated so the duplicate could do jigsaw puzzles with Lenny, as Carl hated puzzles. Chalmers then decided to have his own robot duplicate created.

Chalmers' duplicate arrived, and he took the duplicate to school while he took a day off. While out, Chalmers saw Skinner and chased after him. Skinner revealed that he had also had a robot duplicate created by Marionettes Frinkorporated to deal with Chalmers. Carl found them and told them he was forced to kill his robot duplicate after it started having emotions, which it wasn't supposed to have. Carl gave them his raygun to use against their duplicates.

Chalmers and Skinner rushed to the school, where they saw their duplicates holding an assembly about friendship. Chalmers and Skinner rushed the stage and started fighting their duplicates, with Skinner shooting his duplicate with the raygun. However, Skinner couldn't figure out which Chalmers was human. One of the Chalmers' was nice to Skinner, while the other insulted him. Skinner shot the one who was nice, thinking it was the duplicate, but it turned out to be the real one. The robot Chalmers then befriended Skinner.

Behind the Laughter[edit]

Marionettes Frinkorporated is a parody of Marionettes, Inc. from the story of the same name by Ray Bradbury.
