Summary of " Mr Bean at the laundrette " 

Mr Bean arrived at the laundrette with a huge plastic bag with an inflatable dragon,  plush dice, a rug, his underwear, the head of a lamp and his teddy bear. Surprisingly, the price got more expensive and Mr Bean had to use  his savings carefully hidden in his pants. Out of the blue a young fit man pushed Mr Bean and laughed at him trying to show his superiority. Mr Bean got scared and tried to avoid him. While he was charging the washing machine he realised that he didn't put his "Wednesday" underwear. When he undressed to take his underwear out he accidentally mistook a skirt for his trousers. After some time he realised he was wearing a skirt but, unfortunatelly, the young man also did. He made fun of him which saw red and thought about revenge. Mr Bean bought a cup of coffee and replaced it with the man's cup with coditioner. The fit man put the coffee in instead of the conditioner and, of course, the kimono was ruined and Mr Bean got his revenge. Trying to find his trousers Mr Bean got trapped in the dryer.
