The episode was written by series co-creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone, along with David R. Goodman, and directed by Parker. In the episode, Officer Barbrady resigns as South Park's only police officer because of his dyslexia. Anarchy ensues, just as chickens are mysteriously being molested across South Park.
