"Yes. Um, could I have this, please?"

"The steak tartare?"

Mr. Bean

"Uhh, steak, yes."

[Bean feels something below his neck, he pulls out a hanger, where he gives it to the maître d. A waiter holding a wine bottle appears on the background, presenting himself to Bean]

"Would you like to try the house wine, sir?"

Mr. Bean

"Uhh... yes, please." [The waiter pours a small amount of wine to a glass, where Bean drinks it immediately. The waiter prepares to pour more wine]

Mr. Bean

"No, no, no, no no. I'm driving." [Laugh track]

[Bean hits the wine glasses to the tune of "Happy Birthday to You". Later, the waiter brings the steak tartare and the audience laughs as Bean notices that it is raw. He tries a piece, only to be disgusted]

"Everything to your satisfaction sir?"

Mr. Bean

[grinning] "Mmmm." [The maître d' walks away and Bean spits it out. ]

"Is everything all right sir?"

"Mmmm, yes." [Picks up a forkful as if he is about to eat it but hesitates to put it in his mouth]

"It really is the most appalling mess."

So, I'll check all your break-falls one by one. Let's start with you. Just step forward, that's good. OK, we start with a bow. Good. Then, just take hold, that's nice, and the throw. That's it, good one. Back with the others. Right, nice. Next one, please." "That's good. Okay, again, we start with a bow..." "..then, take hold, and the throw." "That's nice. Good."
