The class prepares questions for when Ismael brings his talking parrot Currito to visit. They want to know if parrots bite, if Currito was born in captivity or wild, if it can walk, talk, eat pipes or "quicos", sing the Barcelona anthem, fly, sleep standing or lying down, read, is male or female, big or small, has a swimming pool, and why it talks so much to Ismael's brother. When Ismael and Currito arrive, the students ask their questions and learn that Currito is still young so its sex is unknown, likes to walk fast, eats fruit and nuts, repeats words and gives kisses, was a gift not wild
