at mr. Bean’s table with a bottle of
wine would you like to try the wine sir
he said oh yes please said mr. bean the
waiter put some wine in mr. Bean’s glass
and mr. bean had a drink
it was very nice he smiled and the
waiter tried to put more wine into the
glass
of course the waiter was right first the
customer tries his wine when he is happy
with it
the waiter gives him more wine
but mr. bean didn’t know this and he
quickly put his hand across the glass no
thank you
he said I don’t drink wine when I’m
driving the waiter looked at him
strangely and walked away he didn’t say
why did you try the wine when you didn’t
want it you stupid man mr. bean took the
knife from the table and started to play
with it he pretended to be a bad man he
pretended to push the knife into
somebody but he didn’t really want to
kill anybody of course it was a game the
woman of the next table looked at him
angrily and mr. bean quickly moved the
knife next he hit the glasses and plate
on his table with it ping ping ping they
went and after a minute he played the
song happy birthday on the glasses he
smiled and thought and very clever but
the woman at the next table didn’t think
that’s clever or oh yes that’s funny
she thought that man’s really stupid and
she looked hard at mr. bean mr. bean put
the knife down and looked at his napkin
it’s a very nice napkin
he thought the waiter saw mr. bean
looking at his napkin he didn’t say
anything but suddenly click he opened it
for mr. bean that’s clever thought mr.
bean I’ll try that and he began to move
his napkin click click click
suddenly the napkin flew out of his hand
it flew across onto the next table the
woman at the table looked round again
but mr. bean pretended not to see her
his face said it’s not 9 napkin a minute
later the waiter arrived with his food
there was a large cover on the plate and
mr. bean couldn’t see the food but he
gave the weight of the money on the
table customers don’t usually give a
waiter money when he arrives with the
food but the waiter didn’t say anything
he took the money and put it in his
jacket mr. bean was happy I’m doing
everything right he
the waiter took the cover off the plate
and walked away mr. bean looked at the
food in front of him he put his nose
near the meat and smelled it then he put
his ear next to it what’s this
he thought he put some of the meat into
his mouth suddenly the manager arrived
at his table is everything all right sir
he asked are you happy with everything
mm-hmm
said mr. bean he smiled the manager
smiled - he walked away and mr. beans
face changed
there was no smile now he thought they
didn’t cook this meat but he had to eat
it I don’t want people to think that I’m
stupid he thought but I’ll never ask for
steak tartare again never he pushed his
plate away but then the waiter went past
his table is everything all right sir he
asked oh yes said mr. bean he smiled yes
everything’s very nice thank you he
smiled and pretended to eat some meat
but the waiter went away before mr. bean
put it into his mouth what can I do with
it
he thought I can’t eat this where can I
hide it then he had an idea
carefully he put the meat into the
mustard pot and put the cover on it
where can I put some now he thought I
can’t eat it so I’ve got to hide all of
it oh yes the flowers he took the
flowers out of the vars but then the
manager went past so mr. bean pretended
to smell the flowers hmm very nice
he said the manager smiled and walked
away quickly
mr. bean put some meat into the VARs and
pushed the flowers in on top of it he
looked around the table
where next he thought yes the bread he
took his knife and cut the bread roll
then he quickly ate the middle of it now
he could push some meat inside the roll
he did this then he put the role down he
looked at the meat on his plate there’s
a lot of it he thought where can I hide
it now he looked at the small plate on
the table perhaps he could hide some
meat under the plate he looked round
nobody’s watching me he thought so he
took more meat from the big plate in
front of him and put it under the small
plate then he pushed down hard with his
hand
the waiter walked past his table again
mr. Bean’s smiled at him and put his arm
on the plate after the waiter went away
he pushed down on the small plate again
that’s better he thought now you can’t
see the meat good but there’s more meat
where can I hide it he looked round the
table for a sugar part he thought but
it’s got sugar in it what can I do
he thought quickly then he put some
sugar into a wineglass next he put some
of the meat into the sugar pot then he
put the sugar from the wineglass on top
of it good he thought nobody can see it
in there suddenly mr. bean could hear
music where’s that coming from
he thought he looked round and saw a man
with a violin after a minute or two the
man came across to mr. beans table and
played for him mr. bean smiled this is
nice he thought then the man saw mr.
beans birthday card
and the music changed the man started to
play happy birthday the people of the
other tables look round when they heard
the song who’s having a birthday they
thought then they saw mr. bean and
smiled at him mr. bean smiled back at
them he pretended to eat some of the
meat but he didn’t put it into his mouth
the man with the violin walked round mr.
beans table and watched him he played
his violin and waited for mr. bean
eat the meat and he waited and waited
and waited I have to eat some thought
mr. bean he’ll only go away when I eat
it so he put the meat into his mouth and
the man with the violin turned away to
the next table the meat was in mr.
Bean’s mouth but he didn’t want to eat
it he wanted to put it somewhere but
where he looked at the man with the
violin he moved quickly he pulled open
the back of the man’s trousers and
opened his mouth the meat fell inside
the trousers he smiled that was clever
he thought the man with the violin moved
around the next table he played a song
to the man and the woman the music was
very beautiful they listened and drank
their wine they watched the man with the
violin so the eyes weren’t on mr. bean
nobody’s eyes were on mr. bean he saw
this and he had an idea mr. bean quickly
took the woman’s bag from the floor he
opened it and pushed some meat inside it
then he put the bag on the floor again
but when he did this he accidentally put
his foot out the waiter walked past with
some plates of food and he fall over mr.
beans foot the plates fell onto mr.
beans table and onto the floor there was
a loud crash and the people at the other
tables looked up quickly what happened

moved very quickly he pushed the meat
from his plate onto the table with the
other food then he pretended to be very
angry
