Part One

Mr. Bean goes to the launderette where he experiences a series of mishaps. Firstly, he realises that the cost of washing has increased from £2 to £3, so he takes out another pound coin from a specially designed envelope in his trousers. A black belt thug (Grant Masters) arrives and rudely pushes Bean away into the next front-load washing machine. Bean then proceeds to put his laundry, which consists of some shirts, an inflatable toy, a lampshade, Teddy, a welcome mat, two oversized fuzzy dice and a few pairs of underpants (each labelled with a different day of the week), into the washing machine.

Bean then realises he only placed five pairs of underwear in the machine. Bean assumes that the missing underwear is Wednesday's, then shortly after, he realises that the current day is Wednesday, assuming that he is currently wearing the missing pair. He then stands behind a partition to change out of the Wednesday underwear to wash them, accidentally getting his trousers mixed up with a skirt belonging to a lady listening to a cassette player (Jacqueline Defferary). As Bean, now wearing a skirt, walks past the man, this motivates the thug into taunting him. Bean then notices a pair of underwear on the floor, Sunday, realising that the missing underwear was Sunday's, not Wednesday's. He first tries to open the washing machine to retrieve the Wednesday underwear, but the machine has already been turned on, so he simply tries to put them on, but the bully interferes by stepping on them for his own amusement.

Finally, having had enough of being bullied by the thug, Bean decides to get revenge by replacing the man's softener with a cup of black coffee from the vending machine. This works, as the man does not realise that he is pouring the coffee into the machine instead of his detergent. However, when the thug gets suspicious after sniffing the cup, Bean is forced to drink the softener to make it look as if he is drinking coffee. Later, the thug berates the launderette's manager as his martial arts gear comes out of the machine, all severely stained from the coffee.

After retrieving his mutated washing (including a shrunken Teddy) from the clothes dryer, Bean attempts to retrieve his trousers from the lady's washing by climbing into a dryer to find them just as the lady returns. Not noticing Bean is inside, the lady closes the door and turns the machine on, resulting in Bean spinning inside the dryer along with the clothes.

Part Two

Bean heads to a golf course to play a game of mini golf. He scores a hole in one on the first hole, but on the second hole, he hits the ball onto the open grass. The owner (David Battley) orders him to play properly by using the club to get the ball back to the course and not with his hands. After accidentally hitting the ball outside the golf course, Bean goes on a very elaborate journey as the ball ends up on a bus, inside a lady's shopping bag (she is later seen explaining the scene to a police officer), on a boy's ice cream cone, up the exhaust pipe of a Proton Saga (causing the engine to explode), down a drain, into a litter bin, into a rubbish collection vehicle and finally onto the village green.

When Bean attempts to hitchhike back to the golf course, the first car that drives in is the blue Reliant, which Bean ignores although the unseen driver opens the door for him. When another car pulls up, Bean cuts out the patch of turf the golf ball landed on with the golf club in order to allow him to return to the course without physically touching the ball.

As the sun sets and the ending credits roll, Bean makes it back to the course just as it is closing for the day and finally rolls the ball into the second hole, before leaving with a final score of 3,427 strokes.^[2]
