One of my favourite episodes was Mr Bean in a fancy restaurant. After being
seated at his table, Mr Bean takes out a card, writes a few words on it, puts it
in an envelope and places it on the table. After a moment, he looks back at the

the dish arrives, he is shocked to discover that "steak tartare" is actually raw hamburger. He makes an attempt to eat it, but it is clear from the look on his face as
he is chewing that he finds the taste truly awful. He cannot hide his feelings, except
when the waiters ask if everything is all right. When this happens, he smiles and nods
, indicating that everything is fine. When the waiters are not looking, however, he
busies himself hiding the raw meat anywhere he can reach - the sugar bowl, the tiny flower vase, inside a bread roll and under a plate. He becomes so desperate in the end that he even hides some inside the purse of a woman sitting near him and throws some down the trousers of the restaurant's violinist!
