## Watch

**Killer Bean: Episode 1** is the first episode of the Killer Bean series. Its official title on YouTube is "Killer Bean - Episode 1" (formerly "Killer Bean - Ep 1 - Featuring Cr1TiKaL".)

## Plot

The episode opens with two beans played by Jeff Lew, the creator of Killer Bean, advertising the new Killer Bean Plush.

The camera zooms in on a couple of beans having a meeting in a warehouse. The beans discuss what happened at the party after Killer Bean arrived and what to do next, since their boss, Cappuccino, is dead, while also pondering the fact that girl beans now exist.

After the intro, Killer Bean jumps out of the police van in a dark, secluded area in the city. He then whips out a rocket launcher and blasts a door open. It turns out that Killer Bean is looking for Kessler, a former Shadow Bean like himself. Killer Bean enters Kessler's compound. Killer Bean demands Kessler to show himself. Kessler notices that Killer Bean has broken into his compound by looking at his surveillance cameras. He mocks Killer Bean and unleashes his drones to kill Killer Bean. Killer Bean manages to destroy all the drones and enters Kessler's room. However, during the battle with the drones, Kessler's CPU is accidentally destroyed by one of Killer Bean's bullets, mainly because one of Kessler's drones was in front and was penetrated by a bullet. Kessler is already in his "bathroom bunker" with a seemingly unbreakable door. Kessler tells Killer Bean that he will never get out, claiming he has streaming, a good food supply, and toilet paper. In an effort to make him get out, Killer Bean shoots and destroys the WiFi router on a table. This forces Kessler to come out. Killer Bean asks Kessler to give him the location of the Shadow Agency. While they are talking, Kessler notices that his CPU is broken. Kessler is upset that it is broken. Killer Bean asks him to show the location on a phone. Kessler then tells Killer Bean that the Shadow Agency has changed. The Tactical Evasion System enables the Shadow Agency to teleport from one location to another every two weeks. He tells Killer Bean that now, they have a network of mini particle-accelerator satellites which enables them to teleport every 4 hours. Kessler tells Killer Bean that it would need a very powerful computer to predict the next location the Shadow Agency will appear at. Since Kessler's CPU is broken, he can't do so. Killer Bean suggests buying the parts needed to repair it. But Kessler refuses. Kessler mentions Reximus, an international arms dealer who earns a lot of money from his weapon businesses and gaming tournaments.

Kessler tells Killer Bean that Reximus is in possession of one of the two prototypes of the CPU. Killer Bean says that he's confident that he will be able to convince Reximus to use it. Kessler gives Killer Bean Reximus' location. Kessler warns Killer Bean to be careful, as there are an army of thugs that are protecting him. Kessler tells Killer Bean to take Max, an advanced AI that has the ability to change personalities, with him for help on the mission. Killer Bean tells Kessler if it tries anything funny, he'll destroy Max. Killer Bean then leaves the room together with Max.

The episode ends with another advertisement for the Killer Bean plush.
