Leo and Inez Wong are a rich married couple who own the western hemisphere of Mars. They farm buggalo at their ranch. The Wongs gained ownership of Mars when Leo's ancestors exchanged a huge diamond for it. They often are urging their only daughter, Amy, to have children, but are disappointed to find that her chosen parter is Kif, an Amphibiosan. Leo is also the cause of several environmental disasters and huge explosions, including the destruction of Mars Vegas and an attempt to wipe out 12% of the Milky Way in order to create a giant miniature golf course.
Family
- Amy, their daughter
- Sir Reginald Wong, Leo's paternal ancestor who bought Mars from its native with a bead
Additional Info
Trivia
- Leo and Inez often describe Kif as "squishy".
- Leo and Inez paid off Dean Vernon for Amy's acceptance to Mars University.
- Leo mentions he is friends with every judge on Mars.
- Both Leo and Inez have a strong desire to have grandchildren.
- Zoidberg spent a day or two as the Wongs' "son".
- Leo is one of the main antagonists in Into the Wild Green Yonder, along with The Last Dark One.
- Strangely, although in "Where the Buggalo Roam" they claim to want grandchildren because Amy isn't getting any younger, in "Teenage Mutant Leela's Hurdles" when she does get younger, they claim it is their worst nightmare.
- Leo likes pie
- In their first appearances, Leo and Inez have shown to be able to speak perfect English despite their atrocious Asian accents. But this trait disappears in "Where the Buggalo Roam".
