Fry Legs is an episode from the seventh season of the animated television series Aqua Teen Hunger Force. It revolves around the trio of anthropomorphic fast food items - Master Shake, Frylock, and Meatwad - as they engage in wacky adventures and encounter strange characters in the fictional neighborhood of New Jersey.
In this particular episode, Frylock transforms into a spider-like creature with an insatiable appetite for french fries after consuming a contaminated batch of them. As he struggles to control his newfound urges, Master Shake seizes the opportunity to capitalize on his friend's condition and opens a fast food restaurant called Fry Legs, which serves dishes made from Frylock's fry legs.
Meanwhile, Meatwad becomes a loyal customer of Fry Legs, oblivious to the disturbing source of the food. He embarks on a culinary journey of gluttony, savoring every bite of Frylock's crispy limbs and even creating his own fry-inspired masterpiece, the Meatleg.
As Frylock's addiction worsens, he seeks help from Dr. Wongburger, a shady medical practitioner who specializes in curing unusual food-related disorders. However, Dr. Wongburger's methods are far from conventional, and he puts Frylock through a bizarre treatment involving hypnosis and electric shocks.
Amidst the chaos, an army of spider fry creatures emerges from Frylock's body, wreaking havoc in the neighborhood and threatening to expose the secret behind Fry Legs. The Aqua Teens must find a way to stop the spiders and restore Frylock back to his original form before it's too late.
The episode is filled with the signature humor and surrealism that Aqua Teen Hunger Force is known for, with references to pop culture and satire of fast food culture. The theme of addiction and exploitation is explored through Frylock's transformation and the exploitation of his condition by Master Shake.
Overall, Fry Legs is an entertaining and memorable episode that showcases the creativity and irreverence of Aqua Teen Hunger Force.
