Biography
Enos was a Private First Class stationed at Roswell Army Air Field in 1947 and was dating a woman named Mildred.
When by accident the Planet Express crew comes to Roswell of 1947, Philip J. Fry realises his grandfather (Enos) and grandmother (Mildred) worked there. He runs into Enos, and becomes paranoid to keep him alive, realising that if Enos dies, Fry is never born. The Professor had previously told Fry to keep away from Enos to avoid a time paradox, but Fry insisted of following Enos, trying to coax him out of homosexual fantasies and being overly protective to keep him alive and well.
Fry eventually took Enos to the middle of nowhere, which turned out to be an atomic test site where Enos was killed in a nuclear blast.
Family
It is believed that Mildred took the Fry name and claimed that her child was Enos', this list is of people believing Enos to be a relative.
- Yancy Fry, Sr., son.
- Yancy Fry, Jr., grandson.
- Philip J. Fry, grandson.
- Philip J. Fry, II, great-grandson.
- Professor Farnsworth, distant grandson.
- Igner, distant illegimate grandson.
- Cubert Farnsworth, Hubert Farnsworth's clone.
Additional Info
Trivia
- In "The Luck of the Fryrish", Yancy Fry Sr. told Yancy Jr. "your name is Yancy, just like me and my grandfather and so on. All the way back to "Minuteman" Yancy Fry, who blasted commies in the American Revolution." It is believed that Mildred pretended her child was Enos' son and named it after Enos' father due to the difficulties she would otherwise have had in the 1940s as the mother of an illegitimate child.
- Enos is clearly a parody of Gomer Pyle of The Andy Griffith Show and later—and more related to Enos—of his own spin-off, both in intelligence and speech. His exclamation of "gadzooks" is analogous to Gomer's "shazam". His sergeant is also a parody of Sgt. Carter.
- In the Italian dub his name is Gavinus and he speaks with Sardinian accent.
- Although he was supposedly the father of Yancy Fry Sr., he bears a bigger resemblance to Mrs. Fry.
Near deaths
- Falling on a pile of rusty bayonets (possible fatal wound or later death from Tetanus).
- Internal bleeding from eating microchips.
- Salmonella poisoning from raw chicken.
Quotes
Enos: Well, gadzooks!
Fry: You almost got neutered!
Enos: Well, 'tain't as bad as gettin' killed.
Fry: For me it is!
Fry: She sure is pretty. You ought to marry her and father some children right away.
Enos: Yeah, folks say that, but do you ever get the feelin' you're only going with girls 'cause you're supposed to?
Fry: What!? Don't ever, ever say or think that again! Please, just concentrate on staying alive.
