Unable to return to Earth or go anywhere outside of what Mars.ly has made habitable, Jeff struggles to find some place where he can fit in as a valued member of the team.The series premiered on April 20, 2023, with 8 episodes released two at a time every Thursday. | |

Fingore: While moving rocks on the surface of Mars, Jeff uncaps his index finger to answer a text message, only for the extreme cold to freeze the finger in seconds. It ultimately falls off, though he gets a cybernetic replacement later. When he explains this incident to Crystal, she shares her own experience with losing her thumb in an acid accident. Her replacement is relatively fancy, looking like an ordinary thumb while also housing a pen. | |

Unwitting Instigator of Doom | |
| Fired On Mars / int_99ddfcec | comment |
Unwitting Instigator of Doom: On many occasions, Jeff's good intentions have disatrous consequences. In the first episode, he finds new purpose in the advice from a book on label theory, but gets carried away and wastes most of Mars.ly's label supplies on items that didn't need them, such as individual pens and coffee pods. Most of the consequences are off-screen, but when Martin calls him out on it, he mentions how a biologist mistook a cup of fluoroantimonic acid for ginger ale and almost drank it due to the label shortage. In the second episode, Jax tasks him with setting up party favors for Reagan's birthday, but he ends up stuck with tacky substitutes like latex gloves for balloons and bales of hay instead of flowers. In a last ditch attempt to salvage the party, Jeff turns up the nitrous oxide like Jax taught him earlier so the partygoers are too euphoric to care how stupid it looks. It goes well, until someone tries to light a candle and ignites the gas in a floor-wide explosion. One of his biggest screwups comes in Episode 6, when he joins a group of rebels seeking to start their own colony, and they task him with feeding their replenishable food supply of grasshoppers twice a day. Under the stress of balancing his time with the rebels and increased responsibilities up at Mars.ly itself, Jeff gets the idea to steal Sluggo's cuckoo clock to use as a makeshift button presser for the feeder. It doesn't take long for Sluggo to find his missing clock, though, and when he takes it back, a chair that was propping it up falls on the switch, holding it down and overfeeding the grasshoppers, causing them to swarm the entire building. | |

20 Minutes into the Future: Mars.ly has the technology to colonize Mars, but the work environment is otherwise familiar to that on Earth. | |
