Series executive producer Matt Selman teased the episode, saying, “It’s a tale of greed, excess, betrayal, revenge, and ruthlessness, and there’s a hilarious goose in it. The goose is really funny.”

The season 28 opener was first announced in August. At the time, it was revealed that the episode would be a spoof of F.
