"O Tannenbot" is a song performed by Joel Robinson and Gypsy sung while Crow T. Robot is immobilized to act as a makeshift Christmas tree.
Set-up[]
[On the Satellite of Love]
[Joel shows Gypsy footage of Crow being frozen.]
Gypsy: Well, it's not really beautiful. But why?
Joel Robinson: Well, because, it's...uh...we have a Christmas tree on Earth to represent a special time of giving. It's...that's Christmas because we celebrate when the wise men came and gave gifts to the Savior child.
Gypsy: Gifts. Hmm.
Joel Robinson: Yeah, we exchange them.
Gypsy: What if your Jewish?
Joel Robinson: Well, if you're Jewish, then you celebrate Hanukkah. And the kids who are Jewish get to echange gifts, too, and that represents another miracle, where the lamp burned in the temple for eight days. And it only had enough fuel for one.
Gypsy: Oil. Hmm. Yeah. Hmm. Hanukkah. Christmas. You be the judge.
Joel Robinson: Let's sing that song "O Tannenbot".
