Timmy arrives in South Park as a new student. Although he is obviously intellectually disabled and is only capable of saying his name, none of the teachers recognize this fact and instead diagnose him as having ADD and give him Ritalin. As part of Timmy's treatment, he no longer has to do homework, so naturally all the other kids demand to be diagnosed with ADD and given Ritalin, too. Meanwhile, Timmy ends up creating a local controversy when he becomes front man for a garage rock band.

Trey Parker and Matt Stone put an Oscar-wielding Phil Collins parody in this episode mainly because Collins had beat them at the Oscars in the category 'Best Original Song' earlier.
The question that Timmy fails to answer and leads to his diagnosis of ADD is: "what was the color of Gatsby's car". This is not as capricious as it first appears, as the color of Gatsby's car (yellow) is actually fairly important to the plot of "The Great Gatsby".
"Bu-bu-budio" is a spoof of Phil Collins's 1985 hit song "Sussudio."
This episode deals with the controversy around underground recording artist Wesley Willis and his battle with Schizophrenia. Many felt it was wrong to listen to his music because it could be seen as mocking Willis.
