It's a reference to "Monty Python's Meaning Of Life" film -- an odd scene with long-armed, freaky-looking people in an aquarium:
STRANGE MAN: I wonder where that fish has gone.
STRANGE WOMAN: You did love it so. You looked after it like a son.
STRANGE MAN: And it went wherever I did go.
STRANGE WOMAN: Is it in the cupboard?
AUDIENCE: Yes! Yes! No!...
STRANGE WOMAN: Wouldn't you like to know? It was a lovely little fish.
STRANGE MAN: And it went wherever I did go.
MAN IN AUDIENCE: It's behind the sofa!
STRANGE WOMAN: Where can that fish be?
MAN IN AUDIENCE: Have you thought of the drawers in the bureau?!
RANDOM: Shh!
STRANGE WOMAN: It is a most elusive fish!
STRANGE MAN: And it went wherever I did go.
STRANGE WOMAN: Ooooh, fishy, fishy, fishy fish!
STRANGE MAN: A-fish, a-fish, a-fish, a-fishy, ooooh.
STRANGE WOMAN: Ooooh, fishy, fishy, fishy fish!
STRANGE MAN: That went wherever I did go.
MAN IN AUDIENCE: Look up his trunk!
MAN IN AUDIENCE: Yeah, it's hidden in his trousers!

Actually, the scene was filmed in a power control station of some kind - you can see the switching panels and enormous gauges in the background.
