[Everyone will no doubt notice a new addition to the Plane: a giant Christmas tree. Yes, it’s decorated. Lights, ornaments, candy canes, the works. EVEN TINSEL. Tinsel rocks. Lots of tinsel, really.

There are also quite a few presents stacked under the tree. Each is addressed to a person on the Plane with hilariously appropriate - or possibly inappropriate - wrapping paper.

There is a sign near the tree which reads, “Thank you very much for helping us. Please accept a gift, completely and utterly free. It is our payment. We feel you’ve earned it! Did you know some trees stay green in the winter? But they‘re so prickly.”

At the bottom of the sign a small scribbled note reads, “We tried to bake cookies but even we wouldn’t eat those.”]

[He gurgles softly in curiosity before carefully taking the box from Henrietta; he turns it over in his hands, then looks a bit lost as to what to do from there.]

[She shows him one of the seams of the wrapping paper.] You open it. Pull off the paper, see?

[O-open it? D: He looks a little hesitant at that, but at length he does caaarefully tuck the tip of his finger under one of the seams and caaaaarefully uses it to break the tape. He's going a bit slow -- he clearly wants to save the paper. >: ]

[She helps him, as human fingers are a bit more... maneuverable.]

[AND BY THEIR POWERS COMBINED-- the paper is removed in one piece! Huzzah! WALL-E carefully folds it, and after popping down his front panel, he places it inside his chest.

And now we have the problem of the box. :|a He inspects it critically before slowly taking off the lid, and-- oh ho ho, it's a wind chime! *___* It's a bit plain looking, but WALL-E doesn't mind. He lifts it out of the box and coos in adoration at the low tones the metal bars make when they knock against each other.]

[She is delighted at his pleasure.] Oh, you like it? I'm glad! It's beautiful.
