Amy Wong (voiced by Lauren Tom) works as an intern at Planet Express, supposedly kept around because she shares Professor Farnsworth 's blood type and doesn't notice the Professor's tendency to send his crews on suicide missions. Her cocktail party personality and general klutziness get her in and out of trouble. She is the ditzy, spoiled daughter of wealthy agriculturalist-industrialist Han Chinese rancher parents who raise buggalo (a hybrid of " buffalo " and "bug") on their property, the western hemisphere of the planet Mars. A graduate student for most of the series' run, in season six, she earns her PhD in Applied physics from Mars University, earning her the title of Doctor. Amy is also able to fly the Planet Express ship, and will sometimes pilot the ship if Leela is unable to. By the end of the series, she is the " Fonfon Ru " – the rough equivalent of a Common Law wife – of Kif Kroker, and the adoptive mother of his offspring. Amy's stereotypically Asian meddling parents frequently pressure her to get married and give them grandchildren, which she is not eager to do. They are often shown to be rather unkind to their daughter, including during an incident in which Amy's father repeatedly made fun of her for being fat as a child.
