Several producers wrote the episode, including executive producer Daniel Weidenfeld. In it, Leonard Cakes acquires Kei-ko, a talking gorilla, to appease his son's demands for a magical pet.

Atlanta-based musician Cat Power provided the voice of Kei-ko, while actors Evan Peters and Rosa Salazar lent the voices of Pony and Steve's dates.
