8This is ''Series/MrBean'' we're talking about here. Voice or no voice, he ''still'' manages to be hysterical at every turn.

10----
11* Bean getting arrested by Los Angeles International Airport security guards because he pretends to [[TooDumbToLive have a gun at the airport]], highlighted by Bean nervously trembling as he reaches into his jacket and places his "[[FingerGun firearm]]" on the ground. His own thoughts on the matter from the tie-in book:
12-->"I was arrested for the illegal possession of an imaginary gun. I don't know what all the fuss is about, it only fires imaginary bullets!"
13** The police then check Bean's identification card, which has him making an over-the-top silly face in the photo. Noticing this, Bean helpfully recreates the same goofy look so they can get a positive ID on him. The detective's unamused silence and comment are icing on the cake.
14--->'''Detective:''' Mr. Bean, are you currently on any sort of medication?\
15'''Bean:''' ...Not that I know of.\
16'''Detective:''' Well, you could certainly use some.
17* [[HotterAndSexier Whistler's Sister.]]
18-->'''David:''' ''[[NoJustNoReaction Oh you are kidding.]]''
19* The destruction of the painting, and all subsequent scenes.
20** David's reaction is the best:
21-->'''David:''' ''[Looking around]'' Where's the picture gone?\
22'''Bean:''' ''[Stammers.]''\
23'''David:''' What, what, what? What?\
24''[Bean reveals the destroyed painting with his "restoration".]''\
25'''David: [[ClusterFBomb OH, JESUS! OH GOD, OH!! OH JESUS! GOD! OH, MARY MOTHER OF JESUS! JESUS OF NAZARETH!]]''' ''[Shuts gallery door]'' Wait a minute! Why am I worrying about this, ''you'' did it! All I have to do is tell them what happened! ''[Sigh]'' But- ''[grumbles]'' then they'll say, 'Who left him ''alone'' with the picture?' And I say ''me''! Then they say, 'You're fired!' And I'll say, 'Fine!' [[RapidFireNo No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no!]] Then they say, 'Firing is not good enough! Let's prosecute you for negligence!' [[SanitySlippage And then I go to jail. My wife leaves me. My daughter becomes a prostitute! I wind up on death row, sharing a cell with Butch [=McDick=]!]] ''[Calming down]'' Calm down. I just gotta calm down. Okay. Okay. Gimme one more look at the painting.\
26''[Bean shows the painting again.]''\
27'''David: [[RunningGag OH GOD! OH GOD! GOD OH GOD!]]'''
28** A fan managed to [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AfqyQNJmfR8 edit that scene]] and adding the classic LaughTrack from [[Series/MrBean the TV series]] into it, somehow making it ''twice'' as funny.
29** Immediately afterwards, when David resigns to locking up the painting and facing the music later.
30--->'''David:''' Hey, do you drink, Bean?\
31'''Bean:''' No?\
32'''David:''' Good! [[INeedAFreakingDrink Neither do I.]]
33* Some excellent awesome-to-funny MoodWhiplash. After managing to get past some intense security systems with a help of some laxatives, Mr. Bean successfully infiltrates the art gallery and fixes the painting using [[MacGyvering a poster of the Whistler's Mother painting, egg whites, nail polish and gum]]... then hits his head on an outdoor display on his way out.
34-->'''Bean:''' HOORAY!\
35''[Clonk!]'' \
36'''Bean:''' ''[Pained noises.]''
37* "Nothing will touch that painting, short of an earthquake that brings the entire gallery down." The whole time, we can see Mr. Bean on the security cameras taking the painting down.
38* "[[MathematiciansAnswer Magic!]]" *''Snort snort!''*
39* During his "speech" for the painting, Bean calls ''Whistler's Mother'' a "hideous old bat who looked like she had a cactus lodged up her backside".
40* Mr. Bean turning a mundane carnival ride into a nightmare after messing with the ride's stettings (in a call back to a deleted scene from the episode "Do It Yourself, Mr. Bean"). "Brace yourself" indeed.
41** Due to his meddling, people are flung off their wildly rocking seats. At one point, someone falls next to Mr. Bean, who is clearly enjoying this, [[ComedicSociopathy and nonchalantly shoves the guy forwards to enjoy his ride]].
42** After all this, it cuts to Mr. Bean in an ''[[SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome interrogation room]]'', with a policeman inside.
43* When Detective Brutus is shot and rushed to hospital, he briefly comes out of his shock to see that among the surgeons is Mr. Bean; who takes off his mask briefly and gives him a reassuring thumbs-up with his trademark goofy grin. Brutus promptly blacks out, with the look on his face saying [[ThisIsGonnaSuck "Yep, I'm screwed"]].
44* The tie-in book ''Mr. Bean's Scrapbook'' adds a whole new dimension to the film since we get to see inside Bean's thought processes, and they're just as crazy as you'd think.
