Aired on March 14, 1982
This episode presents two distinct class field trip narratives that share no plot connection. In the first segment, Ataru travels to an underwater kingdom. The second story follows Ataru, Lum, Shinobu, and Mendou as they become lost in a cave, which reveals Mendou's legendary fear of the dark. These separate adventures occur within the context of school outings but remain unrelated to each other in terms of storyline or character interaction.
