Bluey (0:00)
This episode of Bluey is called the Show. It's early morning at the Heeler house and mom is fast asleep, enjoying a peaceful Mother's Day. That peace is quickly filled with cheer as Bluey and Bingo tiptoe in, carrying breakfast and a small vase of flowers. Happy Mother's Day. They shout together, waking mom with smiles and excitement. But just as Bingo steps closer, she stumbles and breakfast goes flying onto the floor. Oh goodness. Mum exclaims, surprised seeing the mess. Bingo's face crumples and she dashes out, embarrassed and worried that she's ruined Mother's Day. Bluey runs after her little sister, calling, come back soon. Mom joins them and finds Bingo curled up in a cupboard, feeling down. Mom kneels beside her. Are you okay, Bingo? She asks gently. Bluey explains she's sad because she thinks she's ruined your day. Mum smiles warmly. It'll take more than that to ruin my day, Bingo, she says. But Bingo, looking up with tearful eyes, sighs, I ruin everything. To lift Bingo's spirits, Mom decides to share a bit of wisdom. These things happen, she says softly, then turns to Bluey. Checklist, please. Bluey, excited, pretends to hold a notepad and pen. Mom takes a deep breath and explains her own way of handling tough days. First, I have a little cry. She pretends to dab her eyes and Bluey says, check. Then I pick myself up. Mom stands tall, which gets another check. Dust myself off. And she pretends to brush off invisible dust. Check. And finally Mum smiles, saying, and I keep going. The show must go on. Bingo is still upset and says, the only one of those I know how to do is the crying one. But after listening to Mom, Bluey's eyes lit up with a sudden idea. Bingo, let's put on a show. Bingo perks up at the thought. Okay, she says, ready to try something fun together? Later, mom and dad sit down on the bed, which is now the theater, holding homemade tickets that Bingo gave them. Please take your seats, she says with a giggle. Dad chuckles, oh yes, I've heard very good things about this production. Pulling out a makeshift pair of opera glasses made from 3D glasses and a pencil, the lights dim and the show begins with Bluey introducing the play. Welcome to the show. She announces, and Bingo dashes across the stage with a big grin. The parents clap and Bluey ushers Bingo backstage, handing her a hockey stick. You're gonna play, Mum? Cause you're both red, Bluey explains. Bingo nods, taking the stick. I promise my best. I won't ruin it. Bluey, you Won't, Bluey confidently tells her sister. With that, Bingo steps out and begins to strut proudly across the stage, singing do do do do. Mom gasps with delight. It's me. Bluey narrates. One day Chilli was walking along and, well, this was before she was a mom in the olden days. Dad chuckles, enjoying the story. Bluey adds, chilly love playing hockey. And Mum whispers, dancing, which makes Bluey grin, oh yes, and dancing. Bingo playing. Mum dances, holding the hockey stick over her head. Then Bluey remembers another part of mom's story and turns to her. Where did you meet dad? She asks curiously. Mum thinks and says, hmm. At a party in London. Bluey and Bingo's eyes go wide with excitement at the thought of their parents meeting in a faraway place. They scramble to set up a London party scene with the toys they have. Bingo sits next to a soft toy dog with a crown who is playing the queen. Sitting next to the Queen, Bingo says regally, blow out your candles, your majesty. And in Bingo's best royal voice, the queen responds, very well. Mom chuckles, I don't remember the queen being there. But dad laughs, saying, you wouldn't. The girls laugh as they imagine their dad's arrival at the party. So next, Bluey sets up dad's entrance. Then suddenly this big blue guy called Bandit walks in. She announces she puts on an Australian flag like a cape and lowers her voice to play him. Bluey pretends to strut in, saying in a deep voice, hey babe, smell this. Then she blows a raspberry ppp, making mom laugh. Spot on, she says as Bluey and Bingo fall into giggles. Next up, Bluey and Bingo reenact Mum and dad's wedding day with Bluey playing the role of dad. Bluey, deepening her voice again, kneels in front of Bingo and says, marry me, babe. Bingo, pretending to be mom, asks, why should I? Bluey replies sweetly, because I love you, babe. I love ya. I love your ears, babe. They both giggle and dad, watching, tries not to laugh as Bluey pretends to love even stinky feet and belly buttons. After the wedding, Bluey and Bingo prepare for the next act. Bingo whispers excitedly, bluey, I haven't ruined the show yet. Bluey smiles and says, good one, Bingo. In the next scene, Bluey uses a balloon under her shirt, pretending to be mum while pregnant. Bluey, narrating, says, and then Chilli had a baby in her belly. To which Mum smiles and says, oh. Bingo presses the balloon to Bluey, pretending it's kicking, which makes them both laugh. But suddenly the Balloon pops. Bingo gasps and quickly runs off stage, worried she's messed everything up. Bluey wants to keep the show going, so she tells the audience, ladies and gentlemen, please enjoy some dance. And puts Chatter Max on stage, dancing and babbling to keep everyone entertained. Backstage, Bluey finds Bingo sitting alone, feeling sad again. I knew I'd ruin the show, Bingo says. Bluey gently encourages her, saying it wasn't your fault. We can just blow up another one. Bingo sighs and tells Bluey to just do the show by herself. But Bluey isn't going to give up on her sister. We can't do the show without you, Bingo. You mom listening from the other side of the wall. Dad places a comforting hand on Mom's shoulder and they look at each other with a smile, proud of how Bluey is comforting Bingo during a hard time. With Bluey's encouragement, Bingo remembers something mom taught her earlier that day. Bluey, checklist. She says with determination. Bluey smiles and pretends to hold a notepad and pen. Bingo takes a deep breath. Have a cry. And Bluey says, check. Bingo stands tall. Pick myself up. Check. Bingo brushes herself off. Dust myself off. Check. And finally, Bingo lifts her hockey stick proudly and says, and keep going. Bluey smiles. The show must go on. Bingo says with a nod. Check. With renewed confidence, Bluey and Bingo re enter the stage. Bingo drops the T shirt she was using as a costume on the floor, feeling proud and strong as she continues her role as mum. For the last scene, Bingo pretends to be Mum, expecting Bluey this time using a new prop for the baby. As the story comes to an end, they introduce dad, now in a bonnet diaper and holding a rattle, playing baby Bluey. Goo goo ga ga, he says. Dad jokes that he's gone boom boom and nappy and that he needs to have his diaper changed. Dada change me. Everyone is in hysterics watching dad pretend to be baby Bluey. Finally, Bingo steps forward with a big smile and says, the end. Mom claps, touched by their hard work, and with a tear in her eye, says again. As the play comes to a close, Bluey and Bingo realize Mother's Day isn't about creating the perfect day. It's about using the lessons that mom has taught them to give love right back to her.
