Plot

Pretty Boy is saddled with PMS (Pre Migrational Syndrome), a syndrome that only occurs once a year, in the fall: when birds begin to feel like migrating down south for the winter. When he leaves the house, and begins migrating with another bird, named Free Bird, who is a cool cat. Leonard and Scott go out to look for Pretty Boy while Mr. Jolly vows he will never eat again until "Pretty Boy is restored to his cage once more."
