    - Huh. Never heard it. Might be over the end credits which we skip most of. -- nm - TWuG Dec 17, 11:04 5
      - It's not. It's during the episode. I wonder if people didn't realize they were hearing it and weren't thinking about the LDBC. -- nm - Krusty Dec 17, 11:12 4
        
        I watched it day of so I would not have been looking for it -- nm - TWuG Dec 17, 11:14 3

        People gotta be more careful with what they watch this time of year, especially new shows and movies. - Krusty Dec 17, 11:13
