Dib at first has no clues, but he gets clues from a somewhat crazy man from chicky licky, and finally finds Chickenfoot at a grungy apartment(after meeting turkeyneck}. Chickenfoot is really a disturbed man in a chicken suit, who was caught in a microwave explosion, resulting in a stuck zipper( he claims before that he lived and loved!!). Dib takes him to the hospital, but he tries to flee after accusing the doctor of something,into the parking lot with Dib trying to hold on to his zipper. At last, the chicken suit comes off..though the results of everyone questioning whether or not any monsters exist at all is not what Dib intended.

This is the third and final episode that Zim did not appear in. This is the second episode that Bill the paranormal investigator appears in.
