A Very Special Episode is the sixth episode in Season 7 of Beavis and Butt-Head. It is the 165th episode overall.
Plot[]
Down the highway, Beavis and Butt-Head stake out a long trip by foot to reach Las Vegas. As they walk down the sidewalk, out of a tree drops a baby bird. Beavis is about to eat it when Mr. Stevenson drives by, deluding himself that the two are immensely concerned about the bird, and drives them all to the pet clinic at a dangerous clip.
In the waiting room, Beavis nearly lets the bird get eaten by a cat before they are called up. When it is finally their turn, the duo is fascinated with the veterinarian's cleavage as she inspects the patient. Much to her dismay, she tells the duo that the bird is inevitably going to die, no matter how well it is being cared for and even if they hand-feed it, which they of course think is "cool."
At home, Stevenson tells the duo not to give up, and the boys try feed it precisely because, through a dumb misunderstanding, they expect that will kill it. Beavis, pulls out a handful of worms from his pocket, and by order of Butt-head, chews them up before spitting ground worm directly into the bird's beak. The bird perks up and heals. Beavis is disappointed by this.
In the end, Stevenson tells them it is time to say good-bye and drives them to the park to release their ward into the wild. The duo hold the bird in their hands, order it to spread its wings, declaring it is now "a man", and throw it into the air. It falls weakly back to earth. The duo, knowing the bird is still alive, laugh at the notion that Butt-head "flipped the bird". The bird, still alive, hops away.
