Mini Bluey

**Mini Bluey** is an episode from the third season of *Bluey*.

## Synopsis

It is morning at the Heeler's residence, and there's already some chaos in the house. Bluey misplaced her borrowed library book whilst acting rather annoying. Looking at Bingo being the clamer and more ordered of the sisters (plus some starkly different taste preferences), Bandit wonders why both of them are very different and goes as far as wishing that they can be similar. Hearing this, the sisters hatch a plan. With help of some hair chalk, Bluey presents to her dad, "Mini Bluey" (really just Bingo colored like Bluey).

Being Mini Bluey now, Bingo gets a lesson from Bluey on the latter's habits and mannerisms: dancing, singing, being talkative, helpful (not all the time, but helpful regardless), and messing around with Chilli. They eventually get to the backyard where Bandit asks the two to help him, but, being two Blueys, they instead work very reluctantly and whinge the whole time. So he hoses off Mini Bluey and asks for double Bingos.

More hair chalk later and out comes "Big Bingo", Bluey in Bingo's colors. She is now everything that Bingo would be: a joyful worker, a helpful child and one with a calm demeanor. Both parents are pleased with this change. Bandit even comments on how he will definitely get used to this, which deeply upsets Big Bingo.

In the bedroom (with Bluey/Big Bingo on Bingo's bed trying to fit the image), she laments to Bingo on how the parents wants two of Bingos and none of Bluey, thinking that is because she is annoying. Chilli comes in and assures her that she herself can be annoying, even more so than Bluey and Bingo combined. To demonstrate, she asks for some sticky tape and fake teeth, creating a very disturbing and scary looking face.

Spooked out by the scary Red Heeler and her doubles, Bandit finally demands Chilli to turn herself, Bluey and Bingo back to normal. Satisfied, they run off to fulfill that request. When Bandit eventually comes out to see the three back to normal, Chilli's fine; however, in front are Mini Bluey and Big Bingo instead! "Heh, close enough," he remarks.
