'''The Empty Nest Mess''' is the 23rd (21st in the 4Kids broadcast) episode of the ''[[Kirby: Right Back at Ya!]]'' series. In this episode, [[King Dedede (anime)|King Dedede]] and [[Escargoon]] develop an insta-monster mixture which they intend to use to transform [[Dyna Blade]]'s chick into a [[monster]] to attack [[Kirby (anime)|Kirby]], and attempt to kidnap the chick, causing commotion in [[Dream Land (anime)|Dream Land]] as its mother searches the countryside. Kirby and [[Tokkori]] find the chick, but are unable to coax it into returning to its nest, and after causing a stir in [[Cappy Town]] and having a close call down a river, the chick is re-captured by King Dedede and taken to the castle to be injected with the formula. With Dyna Blade on Kirby's heels - thinking him to have done something with her chick again - Kirby manages to fly on his [[Warp Star]] to reach the castle just before the injection can take place, causing Dyna Blade to discover her chick and punish King Dedede and Escargoon for their actions.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*The scene where Dyna Chick discovers Cappy Town somewhat mirrors Kirby's first impression of the town in Episode 1: [[Kirby Comes to Cappy Town]].
*During the scene where Dyna Blade's chick runs through Professor Curio's vase, the hair on the back of Curio's head briefly detaches while he is shocked. It is unclear if this is an animation error or a deliberate exaggeration.
