Jesse helped to write this about the Mr Bean cartoon: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8fg0hX5v0T8

Mr Bean watches the movie, and eats some popcorn. His tooth is sore. He puts salt in some water, and he drinks it and he thinks it tastes bad. He puts the water into his mouth. He opens the fridge and takes some ice and puts it on his mouth to sleep.
