* CharacterizationMarchesOn: In his first appearance, the Hyper-Chicken is depicted as a complete idiot who only asks inadmissible and/or irrelevant questions, and nearly gets the very open-and-shut case against Zapp thrown out via his incompetence. In future episodes, while he's still far from the best lawyer around, he's nowhere near as outright incompetent as depicted here.
