Bean tries to revive him in various ways by stomping on him, stuffing pills down his throat, trying mouth-to-mouth resuscitation and using electric shock treatment using jump leads.
He removes the stamp using steam from his car radiator and sticks it to his letter using a boiled sweet stuck in his pocket.
At his bedsit, Bean packs for a holiday but he finds that his small briefcase does not have enough space for his clothes and food.
He reduces the size of his belongings, often with scissors, to fit them into the case — such as a pair of trousers into shorts (before realising he already has one), breaking his toothbrush, pouring some toothpaste down the sink, taking just one sandal and packing a flannel instead of a towel, but does not have the heart to cut up Teddy.
Bean attempts to read his book in peace, muffling his ears to avoid the laughter, garnering strange gazes when the man looks up.
Bean, inattentive but unexpectedly startled by his presence, accidentally throws his book with the ticket tucked inside as a bookmark out the train window, causing the man to burst out laughing once more.
He tries to cheer the boy up through various means: by sticking magazine bits on his face, playing with a self-inflating life jacket (it later flies out of Bean's seat), pretending to vomit and by blowing into a paper bag and trying to pop it.
The end credits of this episode is one of two to perform a volte-face: showing the reverse of the opening titles where Mr. Bean is sucked back into the sky, and the only one to do so with the street scenery.
