Plot[]
The episode begins with Jerry poking his head out of a mailbox. He admires the beauty of spring with trees filled with pink cherry blossoms, waving hello to a butterfly. Then he and Tuffy create their own pair of butterfly wings. They test them out, which goes out great. Until Jerry crashes into Tom. Jerry sees that Tom's in love and watching Toots sitting by herself. As Tom's eyes turn into hearts, Jerry tries to snap him out of it. He even tugs his whiskers which fails. Tom sees Toots sitting by herself. His eyes turn into hearts. Toots drops something and Tom kindly picks it up for her. He also brings her lots of gifts and a massive cake too. As Tom opens a heart shaped box of chocolates, Jerry swoops in and nicks the heart shaped chocolate in the middle with his mouth. Infuriated, Tom picks the picnic blanket and sticks, climbs up a tree and uses them to create his own pair of wings. Tom's Flying Cat wings chase after Jerry's Butterfly Effect wings, and all Tuffy and Toots could do is watch. Jerry flies into a tree and falls followed by Tom whose wings get stuck in it. Toots catches Jerry who hands the chocolate to her. Tom landed in the cake and Tuffy is licking it off him. The episode ends with all four characters flying with butterfly wings in the sky.
