The Swallow and the Penguin (ツバメさんとペンギンさん, "Tsubame-san to Penguin-san"?), known as "Ms. Swallow and Ms. Penguin" in the first Viz translation, is the 82nd chapter of the Urusei Yatsura manga.
Summary[]
Ten's attempt to be kind to a random sparrow brings chaos to Tomobiki High School.
Plot Overview[]
Ten accosts Lum on her way to class, begging her to play with him, but Lum refuses. Instead, she offers him a packet of alien candy and tells him to go off and play. Whilst sitting under a tree, Ten discovers a mother swallow and her nest; feeling sorry for their bug-base diet, he gives the mother swallow one of his candies, whereupon she freaks out and flies away in the direction of the nearby school. Soon afterwards, Class 2-4 is thrown into chaos when a penguin goes on a rampage through the class, stealing everybody's lunch and then running away. As they chase it, Ten catches up to Lum and tells her what she did, for which she scolds him; the candy she gave him is not suitable for earthly biologies. The "penguin" is the mutated sparrow, now too big to fly up and feed her babies. To try and make amends, Ten carries the nest down to the ground and feeds his candy to the chicks, making them grow big enough that she can successfully feed them.
