First Appearance: Anthology of Interest I
Last Appearance: It is implied at the end of Twice Told Tales Of Interest that the What-If device used in a poker buddy Bender made was destroyed at the end because of a self-destruct chip Bender used thinking it was a epathy chip. But, Professor Farnsworth said (kind of) that the machine will be fixed in a year.
Description
The What-If Machine displays scenarios. These scenarios are given in the form of "what if" questions. The questions only have to make sense in context.
Scenarios
- In (2ACV16), Bender asks, "What if I was 500-feet tall?"
- In (2ACV16), Leela asks, "What would happen if I was a little more impulsive?"
- In (2ACV16), Fry asks, "What if I never fell into that freezer-doodle and came to the future-jiggy?" The Professor clarifies this as "What would happen if Fry never came to the future?"
- In (2ACV16), it is implied that Professor Farnsworth asks, "What if I invented the Fing-Longer?"
- In (3ACV18), Professor Farnsworth asks (for Bender), "What if Bender were human?"
- In (3ACV18), Professor Farnsworth asks (for Fry), "What if life were more like a video game?" (Fry asked the question in a non 'What If' state, then just said 'What if that thing I said ?'.)
- In (3ACV18), Leela asks, "What if I found my true home?"
- In (US#007), Bender asks, "What would happen if I went back in time to 1999?"

- In (US#024) Bender asks "What if we skip Leela's question?"
- In (US#024) Fry asks "What if life were like a sitcom?"
- In ("The Read Menace" (US#004)) Marge asks "What if you [Homer] actually tried to help us?"
- In ("The Read Menace" (US#004)) Homer asks "What if Flanders was a monkey?"
