Victor and Anita attempt to get their boss, Pineapple Chunks, back from the Floaty Heads. Professor Professor enlists the help of... Santa Claus.
Changed Daily's Name: Pineapple Chunks
Secret Tropes uncovered:
- All Myths Are True: Santa Claus is a real person in this universe, with all the teleporting powers and time stopping that entails.
- Christmas Episode: Downplayed. The episode originally aired in October, but does feature Christmas-y remixes of the music in the show, a flashback to a Christmas with a young Anita, as well as decorations and gift wrapping. Oh, and the appearance of Santa Claus himself!
- Continuity Cavalcade: Besides a penguin and Elvis Presley, the zoo in the Floaty Heads' planet also has previous villains in floating bubbles:
- One of the Wobblemen from Dimension Ten from the episode of the same name.
- A Martian from Who Stole Switzerland?
- The octopus that ate Anita and Victor from And That's for Helsinki!
- Evil Is Petty: As per usual for the Floaty-Heads, their motivation is pretty petty. They simply want to collect humans and put them in a zoo.
- How Can Santa Deliver All Those Toys?: Santa reveals he delivers the presents by stopping time when he visits the household. This is weaponized later on, as U.Z.Z use it to rescue all the denizens of Earth the Floaty Heads had captured.
- Once an Episode:
- Sweet Little Granny is pushed out of the studio while the very first episode of her show plays in the background; at the same time, another agent (likely Changed Daily) does so in that old tape.
- Victor and Anita land in their chairs after the jump from the title sequence.
- Changed Daily’s name in this episode is initially unknown until his capture by the Floaty Heads forces a contingency plan to take effect. He is named Pineapple Chunks for the rest of the episode.
- Running Gag:
- Santa saying "Have you spotted him yet?" various times in the episode.
- Santa gift-wrapping people by accident.
- Sunglasses at Night: The U.Z.Z agents, as well as Santa, wearing sunglasses in space, which has the same effect.
