Watch the original version of Bean
Prologue:
Mr. Bean, a childlike Englishman, was an incompetent watchman at the Royal National Gallery. Despite his best efforts, he often caused more trouble than he prevented. The board of directors at the gallery had grown tired of his mishaps and attempts to fire him had been made, but the chairman intervened each time to save his job.
In a desperate attempt to get rid of Bean, the board decided to send him to Los Angeles to act as their ambassador for the unveiling of a historic painting. Their true plan was to humiliate Bean in front of the other curators and the Los Angeles crowd, but little did they know that sending Bean to LA would only lead to more comedic chaos.
Chapter 1 – The Incompetent Watchman:
Mr. Bean had been working the night shift at the Royal National Gallery for two years, and in that time, he had caused countless problems. From accidentally setting off the alarm system to crushing a priceless vase underfoot, Bean was a walking disaster.
Despite his incompetence, the chairman of the board had taken a liking to Bean. The chairman saw something in Bean that the rest of the board did not. He saw that Bean had a pure heart, and he genuinely cared about the artwork he was tasked with protecting.
One night, while on duty, Bean had fallen asleep in front of a painting. When he woke up, he had accidentally knocked over a nearby statue, causing it to shatter into a million pieces. But instead of being angry, the chairman saw the funny side of it and intervened once again to save Bean’s job.
However, the board had had enough of Bean’s antics. They decided to send him to Los Angeles to act as their ambassador for the unveiling of a historic painting. The board’s true plan was to humiliate Bean in front of the other curators and the Los Angeles crowd.
Bean had no idea what was coming. He thought that he was being sent to LA because of his exemplary service at the gallery. He was excited to represent the gallery and couldn’t wait to see the sights of Los Angeles.
Bean arrived at LAX airport, wide-eyed and full of excitement. He was greeted by the hapless Los Angeles curator, who was tasked with helping him unveil the painting. The curator was immediately shocked by Bean’s childlike demeanor and lack of understanding of basic responsibilities.
As they made their way to the hotel, Bean managed to lose his passport, causing a major delay at customs. He also caused chaos at the airport when he mistook a luggage cart for a ride and went careening into a wall.
The curator was beside himself. He had never met anyone like Bean before, and he was dreading the upcoming unveiling of the historic painting. Little did he know that the unveiling would be the least of his worries.
Bean was excited to explore Los Angeles, and before they knew it, they had missed their dinner appointment. The curator tried to explain to Bean the importance of punctuality, but Bean was too busy marveling at the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
As they walked back to the hotel, Bean spotted a hot air balloon in the distance and took off running towards it. The curator had no choice but to chase after him. When they finally caught up with Bean, he was attempting to climb into the hot air balloon basket.
The curator was at his wits’ end. He couldn’t believe that he had been entrusted with Bean’s care. Little did he know that their adventure in Los Angeles had only just begun.
Chapter 2 – The Board’s Attempt to Fire Him:
As Mr. Bean strolled through the corridors of the Royal National Gallery, he couldn’t help but feel a sense of contentment. Despite his many shortcomings and quirks, he had managed to maintain his job as a watchman for several years now. He took pride in patrolling the halls, ensuring the safety of the precious artwork and interacting with the visitors who came to admire it.
However, unbeknownst to Bean, trouble was brewing. It seemed that the board of directors was growing increasingly frustrated with his incompetence and the frequent mishaps that occurred under his watch. They had been plotting his termination for some time now, but every time they tried to make a move, the chairman of the board would intervene and prevent it from happening.
The chairman had taken a liking to Bean, despite his odd behavior and lack of skill. He found him amusing and endearing, and believed that he brought a certain charm to the gallery that could not be matched by anyone else. So, when the board attempted to fire Bean once again, the chairman stepped in to save his job.
“You can’t just fire him like that,” he argued. “He may not be the best watchman we’ve ever had, but he brings a certain spirit and life to this place. We need him.”
The board grudgingly relented, but they were not happy about it. They knew that Bean was a liability, and that his continued presence could put the artwork at risk. So, they decided to come up with a plan to get rid of him once and for all.
It was then that the idea of sending Bean to Los Angeles was born. The board decided that they would make him their ambassador for the unveiling of a historic painting that was set to take place at a prestigious museum in the city. They believed that the chaos and confusion that Bean was sure to cause would make for great entertainment, and that his humiliation in front of the Los Angeles crowd would be the perfect revenge.
When Bean heard about his assignment, he was thrilled. He had always dreamed of traveling to America, and the thought of being an ambassador for the gallery filled him with pride. Little did he know that he was being set up for a fall, and that his trip would be anything but glamorous.
The board made all of the necessary arrangements, and soon Bean found himself on a plane bound for Los Angeles. He was excited and nervous, and spent the entire flight practicing his speech and imagining the praise and adoration he would receive upon his arrival.
As he stepped off the plane, however, he was hit with a wave of reality. He was in a strange city, surrounded by people he didn’t know, and with no idea how to navigate his way around. He quickly realized that he had lost his passport somewhere along the way, and was now in a foreign country without any official documentation.
Panic set in as Bean roamed the airport, frantically searching for his passport and trying to come up with a plan. It was then that he stumbled upon a group of security guards, who mistook him for a wanted criminal and promptly dragged him off to the police station.
Bean protested his innocence, but to no avail. The guards were convinced that he was guilty, and detained him while they investigated further. Meanwhile, the curator of the Los Angeles museum was waiting patiently for Bean’s arrival, unaware of the chaos that was unfolding.
Will Bean be able to clear his name and make it to the museum on time? Or is he doomed to spend his entire trip in a jail cell? Only time will tell in this zany adventure full of unexpected twists and turns.
Chapter 3 – Sent to Los Angeles
Mr. Bean’s heart sank when he heard that the board of directors at the Royal National Gallery planned to send him to Los Angeles to act as their ambassador for the unveiling of a historic painting. He knew it wasn’t because they believed in his abilities, but rather to humiliate him.
Despite his protests, Bean was quickly whisked off to the airport, where he was met by a stern-looking representative of the board who would be accompanying him on the trip.
As they made their way through the airport, Bean’s excitement began to build. He had never been to America before, and the prospect of seeing a new country was thrilling. However, that excitement was short-lived.
As they got to security, Bean’s clumsiness came into play. He fumbled with his passport and accidentally dropped it, causing a delay in the line and annoyance from other passengers.
Once they finally made it through security, Bean thought the worst was over. That is until he got to the gate and realized that he had left his carry-on bag in security. Frantically, he ran back to get it, but by the time he returned to the gate, the plane had already started boarding.
With no other options, Bean jumped on the plane with his carry-on and quickly took his seat. However, he had accidentally sat in the wrong seat, causing an argument with the rightful owner when he finally arrived.
The flight was long, and Bean struggled to stay entertained. He attempted to read the in-flight magazine, but his attention span was too short. He tried to watch the movie, but he couldn’t figure out how to put the headphones on correctly. Finally, he settled for staring out the window and imagining all the adventures he would have in Los Angeles.
Upon arrival, Bean was met by the Los Angeles curator, who would be his partner in unveiling the painting. Bean immediately took a liking to him and began chatting animatedly about everything from the weather to the painting they would be unveiling.
The curator, who was unaware of the board’s plans to embarrass Bean, was impressed by his enthusiasm and charm. He was excited to have Bean as his partner and looked forward to working with him.
As they made their way to the hotel, Bean’s eyes widened at the sights and sounds of Los Angeles. He was eager to explore the city, but he knew that he had a job to do first.
The first meeting with the rest of the curators did not go well. Bean’s cluelessness and lack of knowledge about the painting caused some to question his abilities. However, the curator defended him, and they eventually moved on.
As the days went on, Bean and the curator worked tirelessly to prepare for the unveiling. They ran through their speeches and practiced the unveiling over and over again until they had it down pat.
But, as always, Bean’s clumsiness got in the way. He accidentally spilled coffee on the curator’s shirt and tripped over a cord, causing a computer to crash.
As they got closer to the unveiling, Bean’s nerves began to grow. He knew it was a critical moment for his job, and he didn’t want to let anyone down. At the same time, he was excited to be a part of such an important event and couldn’t wait for the unveiling.
The night before the unveiling, Bean couldn’t sleep. He tossed and turned, his mind racing with thoughts of the next day. He was so focused on the event that he didn’t even hear the fire alarm when it went off in the middle of the night.
The next morning, Bean was up early, ready to take on the day. The curator arrived, and they went over their speeches one last time before heading to the gallery.
As they arrived, Bean’s nerves kicked in once again. He knew that this was the moment of truth. He took a deep breath and walked out onto the stage.
To his surprise, everything went smoothly. The painting was unveiled without a hitch, and the audience was impressed with Bean’s speech. As the applause died down, Bean couldn’t help but smile. He had done it. He had successfully unveiled the painting and disproved the board’s plans to humiliate him.
As the crowd began to disperse, Bean and the curator looked at each other, both relieved and proud. They had worked together to achieve something great.
Little did they know, the real challenge was yet to come…
Chapter 4 – Humiliation
Bean arrived in Los Angeles feeling excited and ready for his new role as the ambassador for the Royal National Gallery. He had been given specific instructions to keep a low profile and to behave himself, but as always, things didn’t go according to plan.
Upon his arrival, Bean was met by a group of photographers and reporters who had been tipped off about his visit. They bombarded him with questions, flashing their cameras in his face, and making it impossible for him to move. He tried to push through the crowd, but they only closed in tighter around him.
Finally, he managed to escape by slipping out of his coat and leaving it behind as a decoy. The press thought they had captured him, but they were wrong. Bean, in his typical fashion, had outsmarted them once again.
However, Bean’s troubles didn’t end there. The board of directors back in London had sent him to Los Angeles with a hidden agenda. They wanted to humiliate him in front of the entire city and make him a laughingstock. The chairman had taken a liking to Bean and intervened on his behalf, but the rest of the board was determined to get rid of him.
Bean was oblivious to their plan, of course. He thought that he was there to represent the gallery and to unveil a prestigious painting. Little did he know that he was walking into a trap.
The day of the unveiling arrived, and Bean was nervous but excited. He had spent the previous night rehearsing his speech and had practiced unveiling a replica painting dozens of times. He was ready to do his best and represent the Royal National Gallery to the best of his ability.
However, as soon as he arrived at the museum, he sensed that something was wrong. The other curators were eyeing him suspiciously, and the board members were whispering amongst themselves. He tried to ignore them and focused on his task.
The painting was set up on an easel in the center of the room, with a large curtain covering it. Bean was supposed to say a few words, pull the curtain aside, and reveal the painting to the audience.
He stepped up to the lectern and cleared his throat. “Ladies and gentlemen, esteemed guests,” he began, “I am honored to be here today representing the Royal National Gallery. This painting is a true masterpiece, and I am thrilled to have the opportunity to unveil it in front of you all.”
He paused for a moment, waiting for the audience’s response, but instead, he heard only silence. Sweat began to bead on his forehead as he realized he was in trouble.
Suddenly, the curtain began to move, and Bean realized that something was wrong. The painting that should have been behind the curtain was missing. In its place was a large poster with Bean’s face on it, accompanied by the words, “Don’t be like this guy. Support your local museums instead.”
The audience erupted in laughter, and Bean felt his face turn bright red. He had been duped, and he knew it. The board of directors had played him for a fool, and he had fallen right into their trap.
He slunk off the stage, humiliated and defeated. He had wanted to represent the Royal National Gallery with honor and dignity, but instead, he had become the laughingstock of Los Angeles.
As he made his way through the crowd, he heard snickers and whispers. People pointed at him and laughed, and he knew that he would never be able to show his face in public again.
But as he reached the exit, something unexpected happened. The curator he had been working with, a mild-mannered man named David, approached him and said, “Don’t worry, Mr. Bean. I don’t think you deserved that. You did your best, and that’s all anyone can ask.”
Bean smiled gratefully at him, touched by his kindness. He realized that there were good people in the world and that he didn’t need the approval of the board of directors to be happy.
From that moment on, Bean resolved to be a better person and to take his responsibilities more seriously. He knew that he still had a lot to learn, but he was determined to make the most of his second chance.
Chapter 5: Arrival in Los Angeles
Mr. Bean had never been to America before, and as he stepped off the plane at LAX, he couldn’t help but feel a bit overwhelmed. The crowds, the noise, the sheer size of everything, it was all so different from what he was used to. But he was determined to make the best of it, and he took in everything he could as he made his way through the airport.
But trouble was already brewing. As he approached the customs desk, he realized that his passport was missing. Frantically searching his bags, he realized that he must have left it on the plane. Panic set in as he imagined being stuck in America without any proper documentation, but then he had an idea.
Spotting a janitorial cart nearby, he quickly grabbed a mop and bucket and began cleaning the floors around the customs desk. When the customs officer asked him for his passport, Bean simply replied with a smile, “I’m here to clean!”
The officer gave him a suspicious look but didn’t press the matter, and Bean was relieved to make it through customs without any further incident. But as he made his way out of the airport, he quickly realized that he had no idea how to get to his hotel.
Trying to remember what he had seen in movies, he headed to the nearest taxi stand and hailed a cab. But as soon as he got in, he realized that he had no idea of the hotel’s name or address, and he didn’t even have a phone to look it up.
“Um, I’m staying at a hotel,” he stammered to the driver. “It’s a nice one. Very fancy.”
The driver looked at him skeptically but started driving anyway, asking for more details along the way. Unable to provide any, Bean instead began making small talk, asking the driver about his life and family and the history of Los Angeles. The driver seemed to be warming up to him, and Bean was starting to feel better about the situation.
But then disaster struck again. As they were driving down the freeway, Bean suddenly realized that he had left his wallet on the plane, along with all his money and credit cards. He had no way to pay for the taxi, and the driver was starting to get angry.
Thinking quickly, Bean spotted a billboard advertising a magic show that was happening later that night. He promised the driver that he could get them both in for free if he just drove him to the hotel, and the driver reluctantly agreed.
As they pulled up to the hotel, Bean thanked the driver and quickly ran inside. But his troubles were far from over. As he approached the front desk, he realized that he had no idea what name the reservation was under. He didn’t even remember booking the hotel in the first place. All he had was a vague memory of someone telling him to go to a hotel and giving him a piece of paper with an address on it.
Panicking, Bean began rifling through his bags, hoping to find some clue as to where he was supposed to be. But as he dug deeper, he only found more problems. His clothes were wrinkled and dirty from the journey, and he couldn’t find his toothbrush or any other toiletries.
Desperate for a solution, Bean decided to take matters into his own hands. He grabbed a nearby bellhop and began chatting with him, hoping to gather some information about the hotel. The bellhop seemed friendly enough, and Bean was starting to feel like maybe things were turning around for him.
But then he accidentally knocked over a vase, shattering it into a million pieces. The bellhop’s smile disappeared, and he angrily demanded payment for the vase. Bean had no money, no credit cards, and no way to pay him back.
As the situation spiraled out of control, Bean had a sudden stroke of inspiration. Remembering the magic show from earlier, he quickly told the bellhop that he was a famous magician and that he could make the vase reappear in just a few minutes.
The bellhop was skeptical, but Bean was able to distract him long enough to escape to his room. Collapsing on the bed, exhausted and overwhelmed, Bean couldn’t help but laugh at the absurdity of the situation.
But he knew he couldn’t afford to relax for long. There was still the matter of the painting unveiling to worry about, and he had a feeling that things were only going to get more complicated from here.
Chapter 6
Bean stared out of his taxi window, watching as the palm trees and bright lights of Los Angeles rushed by. He had never been to America before, and he was excited to explore everything the city had to offer. But, at the same time, he knew that he had a job to do – he was here on behalf of the Royal National Gallery, and he had to make sure that the painting unveiling went smoothly.
As the taxi pulled up in front of the Los Angeles Museum of Art, Bean took a deep breath and stepped out onto the sidewalk. He looked around, taking in the massive building in front of him and the crowds of people milling about. He had no idea where to go or what to do next, but he knew that he had to find the curator who would be helping him with the unveiling.
After wandering around for a few minutes, Bean finally spotted a man in a museum uniform who looked like he might be the curator. He walked over to him, smiling broadly.
“Hello!” he said cheerfully. “Are you the man who’s going to help me with the painting?”
The curator, whose name was Anthony, looked taken aback by Bean’s exuberance. “Uh, yes, that would be me,” he said, a slight frown creasing his forehead. “You must be Mr. Bean?”
Bean nodded eagerly. “That’s right! I’m the Royal National Gallery’s ambassador on this trip. It’s very nice to meet you!”
Anthony sighed and gestured for Bean to follow him inside the museum. “Come on, let’s get this over with,” he muttered under his breath.
As they walked towards the painting exhibit, Bean chattered away excitedly about his journey to Los Angeles and all of the interesting people he’d met along the way. Anthony listened politely, but he couldn’t help feeling annoyed by Bean’s constant chatter. He had precious little time to prepare for the unveiling, and he didn’t want to waste any more of it on small talk.
Finally, they arrived at the exhibit room, where the painting was propped up on an easel at the front of the room. Anthony gave Bean a quick rundown of how the ceremony would proceed, but he could tell that Bean wasn’t really paying attention. He seemed more interested in making faces at a group of schoolchildren who were peering through the exhibit’s door.
“Mr. Bean, please pay attention,” Anthony snapped, finally losing his patience. “This is important. We can’t afford any mistakes during the unveiling ceremony.”
Bean blinked, looking momentarily taken aback. “Oh, I’m sorry,” he said, his cheerful smile slipping a bit. “I’ll try to do better.”
They spent the rest of the afternoon rehearsing their parts in the ceremony, with Anthony brusquely correcting Bean whenever he made a mistake. By the time they finished, Bean was feeling exhausted and a little bit hurt. He had tried his best, but it seemed like nothing he did was good enough.
As they were leaving the museum, Anthony turned to Bean and said, in a slightly less irritated tone, “Look, Mr. Bean, I know you’re doing your best. But this is a very important event, and we can’t afford to mess it up. Can you please try to be a little more serious tomorrow?”
Bean nodded, feeling a bit chastened. “Of course,” he said quietly. “I want this to go well, too.”
As they parted ways, Bean couldn’t help feeling a bit anxious about how the unveiling would go. He knew that he was going to have to step up his game if he wanted to avoid humiliating himself and the Royal National Gallery in front of all those curious Los Angelenos. But he was determined to do his best, and he knew that he had Anthony’s help if he needed it.
As he made his way back to his hotel, Bean couldn’t help wondering what other adventures awaited him in this strange, exciting city. But for now, he knew that he needed to focus on the task at hand – bringing glory to the Royal National Gallery, and proving to the world that he was more than just an incompetent watchman.
Chapter 7 – Unveiling Day
The day of the unveiling had finally arrived, and Bean and the curator were feeling the pressure. They had spent the past few days preparing for this moment, but everything had to go perfectly if they wanted to save their jobs.
As they arrived at the venue, a stunning art gallery in the heart of downtown Los Angeles, Bean couldn’t help but feel a sense of awe. The large space was filled with beautiful artwork from around the world, and he felt humbled to be a part of it all.
But there was no time to bask in the beauty of it all. The painting they were unveiling today was a historic masterpiece, and Bean had been entrusted with the task of doing it justice. He and the curator made their way to the front of the gallery, where the painting was concealed behind a large, grey blanket.
As they stood before the crowd, Bean could feel the weight of everyone’s expectations on his shoulders. He had to get this right, or risk being fired. The curator gave him a reassuring look, and he took a deep breath.
“Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen,” he began. “Thank you all for being here today to witness the unveiling of this historic painting. It is an honor to be standing before you all today, and I hope that we can do justice to this beautiful work of art.”
He paused for a moment, taking in the crowded room. The air was thick with tension and excitement, and he knew that all eyes were on him. He could feel his palms getting sweaty, but he pushed through it.
“Without further ado, I present to you…” he said, and with a dramatic flourish, he pulled off the grey blanket.
The crowd gasped in amazement as the painting was revealed. It was a stunning work of art, a masterpiece that had been hidden away for too long. Bean could see the pride in the curator’s eyes as they stood before it, and he knew that this was a moment they would both never forget.
But just as they were about to bask in the glory of their success, disaster struck. Bean had been so focused on the painting that he had forgotten to check the ropes holding it up. With a sudden snap, the painting came crashing down, narrowly missing the curator’s head.
The crowd erupted in chaos as people scrambled to get out of the way. Bean stood frozen in shock, watching as the painting lay in tatters on the ground. This was it, he thought. He had finally done it. He had not only embarrassed himself, but he had humiliated the gallery and the curator as well.
But just as he was about to give up hope, the chairman of the board appeared. He looked stern, but there was a glint of amusement in his eyes.
“Well, Bean, it seems like you’ve done it again,” he said, shaking his head. “But you know what? I think I’ve finally figured you out. You’re not just an incompetent watchman. You’re a true artist, with a unique perspective on the world.”
Bean stared at him in disbelief. Was he really being complimented after causing so much chaos?
“I’m going to give you one more chance,” the chairman continued. “One more chance to prove yourself as a true artist. And if you can do that, I promise you that your job here at the gallery will be safe. What do you say?”
Bean nodded, feeling a mixture of relief and determination. He was going to do this. He was going to show everyone what he was really made of.
And with that, he set to work. Over the next few hours, Bean worked tirelessly to piece the painting back together. He used all of his artistic skills to make it look even better than before, and by the end of the day, he had created a true masterpiece.
The crowd was amazed as they gazed at the painting once again. But this time, there was no disaster. This time, Bean had truly outdone himself.
As the crowd dispersed and the gallery emptied, Bean felt a sense of pride welling up inside of him. He had done it. He had saved his job, proved himself as an artist, and made something truly beautiful.
And as he walked out of the gallery, he knew that he had learned some valuable lessons about responsibility, determination, and the power of art to transform even the most chaotic situations.
Chapter 8 – Unexpected Twist:
Just when it seemed like everything was finally going well for Mr. Bean and the hapless Los Angeles curator, a sudden twist throws them for a loop. As they make their way to the gallery for the big unveiling, they notice a commotion outside.
Curious, Bean decides to investigate, leaving the curator to fend for himself. As he follows the noise, he sees a man running away from the scene with a painting under his arm. Realizing that it’s the same painting they’ve traveled across the world to unveil, Bean springs into action.
He chases the thief through the crowded Los Angeles streets, leaping over cars and dodging pedestrians. The chase is intense and exhausting, with Bean barely able to keep up as the thief gains more and more ground.
Just when it seems like the thief is about to make a clean getaway, Bean spots a nearby construction site and comes up with a daring plan. He races ahead of the thief and sets up a makeshift trap, using a ladder and some loose bricks to create a makeshift obstacle course.
The thief falls right into the trap, clumsily tripping over the ladder and losing his grip on the painting. Bean quickly swoops in and grabs the painting, only to be tackled by the thief as they both fall into a nearby pile of sand.
As Bean and the thief struggle for control of the painting, they accidentally tear it in two, leaving both men holding a separate half. Bean is devastated, realizing that their mission has been for naught.
But just as he’s about to give up hope, the Los Angeles curator arrives on the scene, having followed the commotion. Seeing the torn painting, the curator suddenly has an idea.
“You know what? This is perfect,” he says, grinning. “It’s art, right? And art is all about interpretation. We’ll just say it was meant to be this way.”
Bean is confused at first, but the curator’s words start to sink in. Perhaps this could work after all. Together, the two men carefully place the torn painting on the podium and prepare to unveil it.
As the crowd watches with bated breath, Bean and the curator pull back the curtain to reveal the painting in all its “glory.” To everyone’s shock, it’s a stunning and thought-provoking piece, with the tear creating a beautiful and unexpected contrast.
The crowd erupts into applause, and Bean and the curator can’t help but smile with pride. They’ve managed to turn a potential disaster into something truly beautiful, and in the process, they’ve learned a valuable lesson about the power of interpretation and perspective.
As they leave the gallery that day, Bean turns to the curator and shakes his hand.
“Thank you,” he says, with genuine appreciation in his voice. “You really saved the day back there.”
The curator grins back at him.
“Ah, it was nothing,” he replies. “Just another day in the life of a curator. Who knew it could be so exciting?”
Chapter 9 – Race Against Time
Bean and the hapless Los Angeles curator, Mr. Grierson, had been frantically racing against time to save their jobs and unveil the painting successfully. They were running out of time, and they still had a lot of obstacles to overcome.
When they arrived at the venue where the unveiling was scheduled to take place, they were met with chaos. There were protesters outside, shouting and waving placards, and inside, there were technical difficulties with the projector that was supposed to display the painting.
Bean and Grierson quickly sprang into action. Bean used his improvisation skills to distract the protesters, doing a silly dance that made them laugh and forget their cause. Meanwhile, Grierson worked with the technical team to fix the projector.
After a while, the projector was finally fixed, and Bean and Grierson breathed a sigh of relief. They were almost ready to unveil the painting, but then disaster struck.
As they were about to uncover the painting, a gust of wind blew through the hall, knocking over a nearby vase. The vase shattered into a million pieces, and everyone stopped what they were doing to look.
Bean quickly sprang into action, grabbing some nearby duct tape and using it to patch up the vase. It wasn’t perfect, but it would do. Meanwhile, Grierson tried to keep the crowd distracted by telling them some jokes.
Finally, everything was ready. Bean and Grierson stood in front of the painting, and the moment of truth had arrived. They pulled back the sheet, and the crowd gasped in amazement.
The painting was beautiful, and everyone was impressed. Bean and Grierson had done it – they had successfully unveiled the painting, and they had saved their jobs.
After the unveiling, Bean and Grierson went out for a celebratory drink. They were exhausted but happy, and they laughed and joked about all the crazy things that had happened over the past few days.
As they drank their beers, Bean realized something. He had learned some valuable lessons over the past few days. He had learned that responsibility was important, and that it was important to take things seriously.
He had also learned that it was okay to have fun and be silly sometimes, but that there was a time and a place for it. He had grown up a little bit, and he felt proud of himself.
Grierson clapped him on the back. “You did good, Bean,” he said. “You saved the day.”
Bean smiled. “Thank you, Grierson,” he said. “I couldn’t have done it without you.”
They clinked their glasses together and drank to their success. It had been a crazy adventure, but it had all worked out in the end.
Chapter 10: Happy Ending
The crowd at the unveiling of the historic painting was in awe as the curtain was lifted. The painting was stunning, and it was clear that it was worth all the effort that had gone into the event. Bean couldn’t help but feel a sense of pride as he stood next to the painting, the curator by his side.
As the applause died down, Bean turned to the curator and said, “Thank you for all your help. I couldn’t have done it without you.”
The curator smiled and shook Bean’s hand. “Likewise, Mr. Bean. I must say, I didn’t have much faith in you at first, but you really pulled through in the end.”
Bean beamed with pride, but his happiness was short-lived. Suddenly, the chairman of the gallery stepped forward, microphone in hand.
“Ladies and gentlemen, I have an announcement to make,” he said. “As you all know, Mr. Bean was sent to Los Angeles as a kind of punishment. But what you don’t know is that he was set up for failure. The board of directors was hoping that he would embarrass himself in front of all of you and be humiliated in the process. But I have to say, I was wrong about Mr. Bean. He may be a bit eccentric, but he has shown a true passion for art and a determination to succeed. And so, it is my pleasure to announce that Mr. Bean will be staying on as our ambassador to the arts in Los Angeles.”
The crowd erupted into cheers and applause, and Bean felt a warmth in his heart that he had never experienced before. He had always been something of a loner, content to spend his time alone with his art and his teddy bear. But now, he had found a place where he belonged.
As the event wound down, Bean and the curator walked out into the Los Angeles night. The stars were shining brightly, and Bean couldn’t help but feel that anything was possible.
“You know,” he said, turning to the curator, “I never thought I’d find my place in the world. But I think I’ve found it here, in Los Angeles.”
The curator smiled. “I’m glad to hear it, Mr. Bean. You’re a valuable member of our team, and I’m looking forward to working with you more in the future.”
Bean smiled back, grateful for the first time in his life to have a friend. And as they walked off into the night, he couldn’t help but wonder what adventures lay ahead. But one thing was for sure – he was ready for anything.

Gentlemen, we simply cannot tolerate the behavior of Mr. Bean any longer. He’s a liability to this institution.
However, the Chairman, MR. HAWLEY, defends Mr. Bean and believes he brings a unique charm to the gallery.
MR. HAWLEY
(to Mr. Langdon)
I refuse to let you fire Mr. Bean. He may not be the most competent watchman, but he has an unparalleled passion for art. Give him a chance to prove himself.
INT. GALLERY HALLWAY – DAY
Mr. Bean is walking down the hallway, admiring the paintings, when he overhears Mr. Langdon discussing his fate with another board member.
MR. LANGDON
(to board member)
We need to get rid of Bean. He’s an embarrassment to this gallery. I have an idea. Let’s send him away on a “diplomatic mission.”
Mr. Bean looks worried, sensing a plot against him.
INT. BOARDROOM – DAY
Mr. Bean bursts into the boardroom uninvited, interrupting their meeting.
MR. BEAN
(to the board)
What’s going on? Are you trying to get rid of me?
Mr. Langdon tries to compose himself and looks at Mr. Bean sternly.
MR. LANGDON
(to Mr. Bean)
As a matter of fact, we have decided to send you on a diplomatic mission to Los Angeles. You will represent this gallery at an important unveiling of a historic painting.
Mr. Bean looks confused and worried.
MR. BEAN
(to the board)
But I’ve never been to Los Angeles. And I’m not even sure what an unveiling is.
The board stares at him impatiently.
MR. LANGDON
(to Mr. Bean)
You’ll figure it out. And if you embarrass this gallery, you’ll be fired.
Mr. Bean hangs his head, realizing the severity of the situation.
FADE OUT.

Mr. Bean sits nervously at the end of a long conference table, surrounded by the stern-faced Gallery Directors. The Chairman sits at the head of the table, a kind smile on his face.
CHAIRMAN: Mr. Bean, we’ve called you here today to discuss your performance as a watchman at the Royal National Gallery.
Mr. Bean squirms in his seat, knowing full well he’s made a mess of things.
GALLERY DIRECTOR 1: Frankly, Mr. Bean, we’re not impressed. Your incompetence has caused more problems than it’s solved, and we’re considering terminating your employment.
Mr. Bean’s eyes widen in horror.
CHAIRMAN: Now, now, let’s not be hasty. Mr. Bean has been with us for a long time, and I think we can all agree that he means well.
GALLERY DIRECTOR 2: But he’s a liability! We can’t have him representing us at the art exhibition in Los Angeles.
CHAIRMAN: Ah, yes, the art exhibition. About that, Mr. Bean…
Bean looks up, hopeful.
CHAIRMAN: We’ve decided that you’re just the man for the job.
Mr. Bean’s jaw drops in shock.
GALLERY DIRECTOR 1: What?! Sir, are you mad?
CHAIRMAN: Hear me out. If we send Mr. Bean to Los Angeles and he messes up, it’ll be a win-win for us. We can finally get rid of him and he can go on his merry way.
GALLERY DIRECTOR 2: Brilliant!
Mr. Bean looks between the directors and the Chairman, his expression one of confusion mixed with a hint of hope.
CHAIRMAN: So it’s settled. Mr. Bean, you’re heading to Hollywood!
Bean smiles sheepishly, still not quite sure if this is all a joke or not.

CHAIRMAN:
Mr. Bean, I have some news for you. You’ve been selected to represent the Royal National Gallery in Los Angeles.
MR. BEAN:
(Excitedly) Really? I’m so honored!
CHAIRMAN:
(Revealing his true intentions) Yes, well, there is a catch. The board of directors wants to get rid of you, but I’ve managed to block their efforts to have you fired. Sending you to Los Angeles as our ambassador is the perfect solution – you’ll be out of their hair, and they’ll be able to save face.
MR. BEAN:
(Surprised, but still optimistic) I see. Well, I’ll do my best to represent the gallery in the best possible light. I won’t let you down!

(Excitedly) Yes, please! Can I have some peanuts and some water? Oh, and do you have any magazines? Maybe a puzzle book?
The flight attendant brings Bean his snacks and a few magazines, and he digs in eagerly.
MR. BEAN:
Thanks so much! This is going to be the best trip ever!
Cut to:

Bean arrives in Los Angeles and immediately gets into trouble, losing his passport and causing chaos at the airport. A helpful taxi driver takes pity on him and offers to take him to his hotel.
TAXI DRIVER:
Where to, buddy?
MR. BEAN:
(Smiling sheepishly) Um, I actually don’t know the name of the hotel. I think it’s near the beach? And it has a pool?
TAXI DRIVER:
(Skeptical) You don’t know the name of the hotel?
MR. BEAN:
(Pleadingly) Please, sir, can you help me? I’m really lost and I don’t have my passport either.
The taxi driver relents and decides to help Bean, despite his better judgment.
TAXI DRIVER:
(Sighing) Fine, fine. Get in, I’ll take you to the beach. But you owe me big time for this.
MR. BEAN:
(Grinning) Thank you so much! You’re a lifesaver!

Bean and the Los Angeles Curator are standing in front of the painting, which is covered by a large sheet.
LOS ANGELES CURATOR
(whispering)
Remember, we have to do this just right. The other curators are watching.
BEAN
(nervously)
I understand.
Suddenly, the sheet falls to the floor, revealing a crude painting of…Bean!
Everyone in the room gasps, and Bean’s face turns bright red.
OTHER CURATORS
(whispering and laughing)
What is this? Who is he supposed to be?
Bean looks around, mortified. The Los Angeles Curator tries to explain.
LOS ANGELES CURATOR
(nervously)
I-I don’t know what happened! This wasn’t the painting I saw!
The Board of Directors look on, smirking. The Chairman looks angry.
CHAIRMAN
Enough! Bean may have his flaws, but this is uncalled for!
Bean looks up at the Chairman, amazed. The Chairman smiles at him.
CHAIRMAN
(apologetically)
I’m sorry, Bean. This was not what I had in mind when I sent you here.
Bean nods, still feeling embarrassed. The Los Angeles Curator looks relieved.
LOS ANGELES CURATOR
Thank you, Chairman. I don’t know what I would have done without Mr. Bean.
The other curators start to disperse, still laughing and whispering.
Bean and the Los Angeles Curator stand alone, looking at the painting.
BEAN
(wistfully)
I guess I really am a work of art.
The Los Angeles Curator laughs and puts his arm around Bean.
LOS ANGELES CURATOR
Come on, let’s get out of here.
They walk away, as the camera pans out to show the painting, still hanging on the wall.
FADE TO BLACK.

MR. BEAN exits the airport, lugging his oversized suitcase behind him. He glances over to his left, where people are arriving in limousines and greeted by their chauffeurs.
He looks down at his ticket and his spirits sink. He’s supposed to be picked up by a bus. He looks up — and sees a bus stop sign.
He walks over to it, dragging his suitcase. He looks at the schedule sign and squints, trying to read the tiny letters. He leans in, closer and closer, until his face is practically touching the sign.
Suddenly, a car horn blares behind him, startling Bean. He jumps up, hitting the sign and sending it flying out of its frame. Bean looks around guiltily, then decides to pretend nothing happened and walks away, dragging his suitcase.

CHAIRMAN: What? When?
He hangs up the phone and turns to the board members.
CHAIRMAN: (grimly) Gentlemen, we have a problem. The painting has been stolen.
FADE OUT.
