Plot

A toy duck that is sold by a street vendor takes on a life of its own and takes a liking to the Pink Panther. He tries to get rid of the persistent duck, even sending it to Japan in a package. Come winter, come spring, and the panther receives a package from Japan, with the duck inside. Eventually, the duck adopts itself into the family of real ducks. Again, seasons change, and finally the duck is back on the panther's doorstep. It has travelled the world and got itself a family of its own. The panther just smiles, shrugs his shoulders and welcomes the family of mallards into his home.
