A glimpse of a tall hooded figure riding Nick's stolen bike and some old newspaper clippings about a giant chicken that once terrorized Hoboken lead Nick to believe that the plus-sized pullet may again be running amuck. This sequel to The Hoboken Chicken Emergency features zany characters and all manner of outlandish encounters and near-disasters.
