The Sad, Sad Tale of Chickenfoot is a mystery piece which features
Dib trying to figure out if the reputed mystical monster
Chickenfoot actually exists.
Dib was trying to show
Chickenfoot was a hoax in order to get people to focus on 'real paranormal problems'.
After some sleuthing
Dib learns that
Chickenfoot is really a man who is trapped in a promotional costume but is too stupid to realize that the zipper is stuck. When
Dib frees / cures him and the people realize that
Chickenfoot was in fact not a supernatural monster, they go on to assume that ALL paranormal stories probably have logical and natural explanations and aren't all that supernatural after all (much to
Dib's chagrin).
This is my LEAST favorite episode.
My Favorite Moments:
There wasn't too much that I liked in this episode. If I have to pick a favorite moment (and I guess I do) I'd say the end when people tell
Dib that since
Chickenfoot has been solved that all paranormal encounters must have logical explanations.
