In Lexx season 1 episode 3 "Eating Pattern", the crew finds themselves in a seemingly peaceful planet, but soon discovers that something is amiss. The inhabitants of the planet, the Asoolians, are divided into two distinct groups - the Thin and the Fat. The Thins are revered as the elite ruling class, while the Fats are treated as second-class citizens, forced to consume a parasitic creature that makes them overweight and docile.
