Tertiary effect of pedal

Here's a puzzle for you:

In forward level flight in a US helicopter with AP and SAS off you put in a little pedal (let's say left). The aircraft yaws left, then it rolls left. Then it pitches...but which way?

Then you try it with right pedal...what happens?

Better still, why?
