It's Chilli with two l's.


** Chili's mantra about having a good cry and moving on is supposed to be a way to tell Bingo that MistakesAreNotTheEndOfTheWorld. Bingo using it after popping the balloon meant to be fetus Bluey becomes very meaningful, as it not only shows Bingo is taking her mother's advice to heart, but assuming Chili lost a baby, implies that Bingo is unwittingly [[YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre reenacting the inner strength Chili mustered to move on]].
** Additionally, the fact it's Bluey (who resembles their father) who comforts and motivates a distraught Bingo (who looks like their mother) after she pops the balloon [[ParallelPlot parallels]] how Bandit was there for Chili after the incident.

* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: When Bingo is portraying a pregnant Chilli, with a balloon under a shirt, the scene is derailed when the balloon unexpectedly pops. We then immediately cut to Bandit and Chilli... where [[DeathOfAChild their expressions drop, and Bandit promptly grabs Chilli's hand.]]


Added DiffLines:

* WhamEpisode: Downplayed: WordOfGod is that the scene with the balloon popping was meant to represent that Chilli had a miscarriage in the past.

** MistakesAreNotTheEndOfTheWorld, and the best thing to do when a mistake happens is to learn from it and move on.
** Alternatively, life is not perfect, and there will be hardships. Although [[ItsOkayToCry it's okay to grieve]] over one's hardships, the important thing is that one must eventually pick themselves up and keep going.

The Heeler sisters try to bring Chilli a Mother's Day breakfast in bed, but they spill it. While Bluey takes this in stride, Bingo is sad because she thinks she "ruined [Chilli's] day". Chilli is not unhappy, however, and tells Bingo to have a good cry and then keep going. She then says, "The show must go on", inspiring Bluey to put on an actual show.

The girls start their show, with Bingo playing Chilli before she had kids. Bluey establishes that Chilli liked playing hockey and dancing, then the girls recreate how the Heeler parents met, which Chilli thinks was at a party in London. Bingo plays Chilli and pretends to be at the party with the Queen, then Bluey plays Bandit, who she portrays as a dopey, gassy dog.

Bluey then plays Bandit proposing Chilli and has the honeymoon happen at the dump, despite Bandit's protests that they went to Italy instead. Then, the girls run off to get a shirt and a blue balloon so that Bingo can play a pregnant Chilli. While preparing, Bingo notes that she "[hasn't] ruined the show yet", and the parents note that they mostly enjoyed it.

Bingo comes on pretending to be pregnant with Bluey, but then the balloon that was representing the unborn Bluey pops. This makes Bingo very sad since she again thinks she's ruined it, but Bluey (while trying to entertain the parents with a dancing toy) tries to reassure her that it wasn't her fault. Bluey then looks for a new prop to use for the fake fetus, since there are no blue balloons left, but Bingo doesn't want to finish the show. However, she decides to follow Chilli's earlier advice and get herself out of her funk.

The girls start again and use Bandit (against his will) to play the newborn Bluey. Bandit teases Bluey by pretending he needs to be changed, and the show ends.
