Donna forces Cleveland to take his box of toys to the basement. When Cleveland enters the basement, he asks the animators how the episode is going so far. One of the animators says there is no room for the boxes. He then says "Wait a minute. We're like gods here. Whatever we draw..." The scene cuts away to a different animator who has created an image of Neytiri from Avatar, and is on a bed, making out with her.
