"Dream Tree" is the 23rd episode of Season 4 and the 175th episode of Big City Greens overall.
Synopsis
Bill and Cricket follow clues from Cricket's dream to search the woods for the perfect Christmas tree.
Plot
Bill is driving his family back to the country so that they can all spend Christmas together. After arriving, Nancy notices that Bill didn't bring a Christmas tree. He explains that he is waiting for the "Spirit of Christmas" to give him a sign so that he can find the perfect tree. Cricket, who was asleep on the drive over, wakes up and tells Bill that he had a dream about an "awesome Christmas tree", after having eaten tinsel. Taking this as the sign, Bill drags Cricket along to explain details about his dream, so that they can look for the tree. Meanwhile, Tilly convinces a reluctant Nick to join her, Nancy, and Gamma Alice to go caroling together using hot cocoa as an incentive.
Bill and Cricket journey through the woods, passing by a frozen fish and a stick (Cricket dreamed of fish sticks) before rolling down a hill in snowballs, crashing through a fence and forming a sleigh out of it. Cricket mentions that he heard music, which they interpret as a moose's horns (though technically they are antlers). They are chased into an open field where Bill spots a large beautiful tree, but Cricket takes an interest in a dinky sized one instead. In Smalton, Tilly tries to get Nick to sing, but he refuses finding the whole thing stupid. He ultimately reveals that he sang when he was 12, but that everyone laughed at him. Tilly convinces him to rejoin the caroling.
Cricket saves the small tree, as the large one gets destroyed by the moose. Bill and Cricket run for their lives back to the house while Nick sings back in Smalton, revealing that he has an excellent falsetto voice. Everyone applauds with Tilly believing that the laughing was them admiring his vocals. After making back to the house, Bill is disappointed until he sees that everyone loves Cricket's small tree and believes that this is what the Spirit of Christmas was trying to show him. He rejoins the entire Green clan as they decorate the tree and sing together, with Nick showing off his vocal skills.
