Futurama, Season 7

[Mrs. Fry is sitting on the couch watching the 2000 Rose Bowl. Fry appears.]

Fry:
Hi, mom.

Mrs. Fry:
Hi, Sweetie. You want some crackers and a slice of hat?

Fry:
No, thanks. Listen, um I never got the chance to talk to you. Do you have a few minutes?

Mrs. Fry:
Sure, honey, you're the most important thing in my life once this game is over.

Fry:
What's the point? What good is it to talk to her in my own dream?

Announcer:
[on TV] And that's it! Wisconsin has defeated Stanford What an occasionally exciting way to start the new millennium!

Fry:
Whoa, whoa, whoa, wait a second. I never saw that game. It happened after I got frozen. How can I be dreaming it in such detail?

[Nibbler appears]

Nibbler:
Because this isn't your dream. It's your mother's dream.

Fry:
Whoa, wh-what?

Nibbler:
I told you we would reward you. Make it count, my friend.

[Nibbler leaves from the dream. Fry turns to his mother]

Fry:
Mom? There's so much I need to say. Is it really you?

Mrs. Fry:
Yes. I've dreamed about you a lot since you disappeared. What did you want to tell me?

[Fry doesn't say anything. They smile and embrace each other with tears in her eyes. Cut to Mrs. Fry in bed, tossing and turning. She wakes up and looks at a picture of Fry on the bedside cabinet. She smiles and goes back to sleep]
