25-Star General Zapp Brannigan refers to his Captain's Quarters as the Lovenasium. It is a large room lavishly decorated in pink and purple velour, shag carpeting, marble statues and a few green plants. Its centerpiece is a large oil painting of Zapp and a floating, remote controlled, heart-shaped bed. The room is dimly lit by candlelight and features a cluster of recessed spotlights over the bed. There is a wet bar to one side, which is stocked with champagne and sex toys. The rear of the room has large floor-to-ceiling windows which allow for fantastic views.
