Question about American Dad, 12/12

[twilyth]

In the scene where Santa is recovering in the vat, what movie is that from?

There were a couple scenes like this from SGU when Rush and the girl were on the alien ship. It also reminded my of Babylon 5 when they showed you how the Vorlon modified humans to be psychic. This probably a common trope, but I can't place any recent occurrences that involve healing someone.

It might be that Governator film with the clones: the 6th day. I don't think I ever recall one about healing either. But then again, how do we know he isn't a clone? I might be thinking Family Guy though. That hour long episode was far more memorable (with all the twists on tradition) than the American Dad war.

Didn't see what you are talking about, but recovering in a vat reminds me of Wanted. They put you in a vat of wax to accelerate healing.
