Pingu - 14. Pingu Runs Away - (Original VHS version - HQ - Restored)

Pingu and his parents are eating their dinner one night, but Pingu is not happy because he has to eat his seaweed. After unintentionally ruining the dinner, getting spanked and yelled at, Pingu runs away from home in tears thinking his parents don't love him anymore. Pingu then sees scary carvings and becomes scared as he realised just how scary the outdoors can be at night, so he hides himself in a small cave. His parents, unhappy with how they treated Pingu, come looking for him. They find him in that cave frightened, where they apologise to him and return home.
