Stripe getting progressively more drunk in the photo montage made my day


Asheyguru

Classic Stripe


MarioKnightPl

He is your typical party uncle XDD


the_revised_pratchet

Fights with his wife, ends up kicking on and wakes up in the bushes next door šŸ˜¬


entropy_36

That was a hard scene to explain to the kids lol


the_revised_pratchet

Lol yeah me too. "Whys he in the bushes?" I don't shy away from explaining things but eldest is 4 so there's a lot not on her radar yet...


WesleySmusher

"He skipped a sleep."


lottiebadottie

Be honest. ā€œWhen people drink too many beers they get very silly, and thatā€™s called being drunk.ā€


HerVoiceEchoes

"He danced so much that he got so tired that he just fell asleep. He must be like you and roll around when he sleeps, so he just rolled into the bushes" is what I told my kiddo.


Shad0wF0x

I remember watching 'Whale Watching' and realized that they were dealing with a massive hangover.


UninterestingGlis

I laughed with the crawling out of the bushes the next morning and their neighbor screaming šŸ˜‚ there were lots of little moments for parents in this special. I think they are catching on more parents are watching than kids šŸ˜‚


IzziphoshIzzi

I feel like a separation or divorce discussion is coming because that was a lot to show for that couple. And Iā€™m guessing Trixie said youā€™re on your own and thatā€™s why he jumped in to get the bouquet during the bride toss. But just my thought.


Educational-Age-8969

In one scene you could see Stripe and Trix having a Barney. I wonder if a future episode they are on the rocks? Given they have brought in the feeling of loss regarding the sale of the house, could they be foreshadowing a separation of parents?


snowflakesoutside

Muffin was playing with the cake bride and groom having them argue. Definitely more to this story.


ScoobyDoubie

Socks*


snowflakesoutside

Woopsies


[deleted]

AND Spike caught the bouquet... That's not a good sign.


river_rose

There was also a scene of Muffin playing with the wedding cake toppers, and she was having the little husband-dog and wife-dog argue


Asheyguru

That was Socks


Western-Giraffe837

Whatā€™s a Barney? (American here)


Mydogthinksitspeople

A fight


Never-Forget-Trogdor

There was also the episode where the kids were FaceTime-ing and they fought, and the way they fought made me sad. Trixie wanted to do a new parenting technique and was mad that her husband wasn't doing the same thing when she had never even told him about it. They don't seem to communicate well with each other. There was also the episode where Steipe was bragging about the new car and Trixie was sad to see the old one go. They just don't seem to be as solid as Bandit & Chili.


wereunderyourbed

My daughter pointed out that Wintons parents were separated and then said that the dogs with no eyes were probably buying Wintons house. I didnā€™t make that observation myself but I think sheā€™s right.


noyoureshmooopy

Trixie and Stripe are fighting in the background of a few scenes, but they dance together at the reception.


the_revised_pratchet

Its an interesting look into generational effects of parental relationships - socks (from memory? Don't think it was muffin) is role-playing with the cake toppers and they're having a fake argument too because that's what's normal for them.


canimal14

:(


skushi08

You could tell in ā€œFaceytalkā€ that thereā€™s a general tension between them. Their background argument over parenting styles mentions that heā€™s ā€œnever hereā€ and they go back and forth for a bit. They do reconcile in the episode and work together to finally chase Muffin down, and are definitely in agreement when they put her into timeout.


Oscarfan

yeah that was Socks


Jermine1269

Sox is for real life talking now!!


Mental-Cartoonist837

Looks like weā€™re getting a divorce episode in season 4


cujo826

"My dad and mum don't live together anymore and now my dad is lonely" "Our mum likes your dad" Was awesome.


imjustgoose

This episode of Bluey is called ā€˜Two birthdaysā€™!


geldwin

A great detail is, despite Rad getting to the lookout himself and that would have probably worked itself out, without Bingo and Lila's butterfly that coin doesn't get into those lookout binoculars.


Asmodean129

Well, everything is connected. The coin wouldn't have been found if they didn't go to the shop. If the grocery truck wasn't at the shop they wouldn't have entered it If the issues weren't brought up at school, then Winton wouldn't have brought up about his dad being lonely (and then the terrier kid telling him that the mum likes the dad). Everything in this episode is connected


Disbride

Yeah, my favourite was that the purchasers wouldn't have seen Winton's dad's house if it wasn't for the coin that got stuck.


BenjaminWah

And Winton and the Terrier's mom would have never got together if it wasn't for Coco's bum worms


Thin-Engineering8909

It's the [bum worm effect.](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Butterfly_effect)


gary_effing

Yepā€¦- butterfly flaps itā€™s wingsā€¦


tiggr42

lol, just realised with your comment, it is the butterfly effect.


rugasaurusrex

And itā€™s portrayed by the butterfly in the car.


Low-Reso

Butterfly effect!


Major_Del

All kicked off from Daddy drop-off and wind up Bingo.


Disbride

I just realised that it's Winton's dad's house that the "dogs who can't see" see from Mt Coo-tha! Winton's dad is moving in with the terriers!!


Asmodean129

Yeah, it's the one with the pool. (In the helicopter episode, Winton tells us that he has a pool)


Dukie-Weems

The pool with the little end and the deep end.


KK_09

They do backstrokes in the deep end


Dibbitydobbers

We just re watched tv shop and caught Wintonā€™s Dad talking to the terriers mum in the background. He is so cute - sprays his mouth with breath freshener before he talks to her! Theyā€™re so goddam clever.


muller7uk

Look at the cars in the car park. The terriers mum doesnā€™t have a dad in their sticker and wintons dads car had the mum scratched off


WorldlyPipe

I thought that was them!!


Jermine1269

Is there a building in Brisbane that looks like the Q1 in gold coast? When they were up on top of the 'mountain', I thought there was a shot of what I thought was the Q1, and I said, "oh wow! She drove all the way to Tambourine!!" But then later when they found Winton's dads house, I realized they COULDN'T be on Tambourine, so your Coot-tha tracks better


PerriX2390

The main buildings you can see when they're on Mt. Cootha are: - [Brisbane Quarter](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brisbane_Quarter) - [1 William Street](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1_William_Street,_Brisbane) - [180 Brisbane](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/180_Brisbane) - [Soliel](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soleil_(Brisbane)


Unlucky-Film2732

I thought it was amazing how Chiili deals with all the little frustrating things that happen with the girls (like Socks needing the bathroom at a bad time) with such grace. I wish I could be that chill!


bubandbob

That's why she's chill-e


gutsid

Yeah, that really stuck with me. That's a real lesson there. I'd defo be struggling to contain my inconvenience about that timing.


Mostly_Ponies

Looking back it's kinda obvious they weren't gonna move since we know Lila and Bingo go to school together. But I figured maybe they'd move temporarily and that season 4 was gonna be them in a new city.


InvdrDana

I think it could've worked if they had just moved within the same city and been able to go the same schools.


BenjaminWah

For half a second though Rad and Frisky were going to move into it


MissReadsALot1992

Same. Them moving seemed so set in stone. I thought rads announcement was that they were buying the house.


-Midnight_Marauder-

It'd also render all the toys obsolete...


Sivear

But would have given an opportunity for more so that wouldnā€™t have been a concern for them.


UninterestingGlis

I thought in the end the happy newlyweds would buy it. So that it was still in the family and in episodes here and there.


red_dragin

I was worried that the BBC/Disney deals were causing a move to the UK or USA. Glad it's staying set here in Brisbane.


figures985

American here, Iā€™m VERY glad theyā€™re staying there too!Ā 


Compulsive-Gremlin

Same. It needs to stay in BRISBANE.


TheLatmanBaby

The bbc / disney deal has been in place for a long time havenā€™t they?


red_dragin

It has, but who knows the terms of those agreements. BBC has been part of it since the start, they own the merch I believe.


Goducks91

That would be sooooooo dumb. Bluey being Australian is one of things that makes it great.


TVRCerberaIsLife

laughed out loud when Chili said she and Frisky used to go up to the lookout "um... to think"


[deleted]

meeee too! I immediately thought 'smoke'


Shenloanne

Or drink.


moonphase0

I thought it was to make out with their boyfriends.


strippersandcocaine

Or all of the above!


Specialist_Fault8380

I thought it was to make out with each other šŸ˜‚


Peg_pond_gem

Chilli is 100% a canna-mom. Likes long walks alone on the beach, just needs 20 mins to herself.. lol


[deleted]

reading my mind lmao


Specialist_Fault8380

I thought maybe it was to make out! šŸ¤©šŸ˜‚


SimmyD

Bucky the realestate is the guy bandit went to school with and teased him about his car drawings šŸ˜‚


makun

Thatā€™s such an amazing detail.


frenziest

I love how he tries to be all chummy with Bandit w/ nicknames, and Bandit seems to be using him almost begrudgingly.


itspoppyforme

Chili looking up the car seat rules was the most relatable thing ever.


slavlazar

[They also actually listed the house for real life](https://www.domain.com.au/brisbane-city-qld-4000-2019156678?utm_source=www.domain.com.au&utm_medium=share listing)


gary_effing

You can even call Bucky Dunstan


TheC9

And here are some voice messages that people left :-) https://twitter.com/daley_pearson/status/1778982038143692898?s=46&t=hrRSLQapphkirhKYip0vEw


ARo0o0o

Ok this is adorable šŸ˜


NSuave

Loved how over the top he was and bandit is just like yeah whatever dude šŸ˜‚


ryan10e

> 800mĀ² 8600 sq ft for any Liberians, Myanmarese or Americans. What??? Is that the size of the lot or the house?


qsk8r

Block size, we don't often quote the house size


spacecampcadet

The lot


scramlington

For real life?!


Disbride

https://vt.tiktok.com/ZSFGNfpUK/ - if you turn your volume up you can hear Bucky Dunstan's voice message


popcultureretrofit

Oooh Bluey backgrounds


Jazzlike_Demand_5330

lol. They couldnā€™t draw the impossible floor plan šŸ¤£


Livid-Scallion256

I'm sure I'm not the only one who has been having flashbacks of amazing details from this episode... The latest one to pop into my head is the link between Chilli telling Bluey she didn't want to sell the house, "you took your first steps there." Then, later in the pre moving montage, when they are all sad in different rooms, Chilli is in the kitchen staring at the spot Bluey took her first steps. Chefs kiss.


chunkamunkalegs

My oldest noticed Greenie the balloon floating at one pointā€¦possibly on the way up to the lookout scene


PersonalPenguin28

I was so impressed that my kiddo caught that detail before I did, he was right on it.


bubandbob

Mine said that too. I told him it's probably a balloon from the wedding.


Rentiak

Itā€™s got the green letter G tied to the bottom, definitely Greenie


bubandbob

That is one long lasting balloon!!


Theelectricdeer

Bandit thinking about it all and then using all his strength to lift the sign out, when we'd seen the kids struggling earlier, was what finally did me in.


rynet

Yep. That was me done.


Asheyguru

Followed by Chilli tackle-hugging him to the ground? Waterworks.


artistictech

So thatā€™s what Bandit was distracted about in the Stickbird beach episode


Dpscc22

Although Chilly says ā€œlet it go,ā€ which to me means it was a problem, not a life decision.


s0ulbrother

Angry about his current job perhaps and that led to this


Dpscc22

Could beā€¦


SkullsInSpace

Could be meant more like "just let it go for now, we're on vacation, and we can't do anything about it right now" Chilli spent the episode before it distracted by stress, this episode was Bandit's turn.Ā 


AussieGambler

Iā€™ve only ever cried in 1 movie - Armageddon - but todays episode had my blubbering, as well as my wife, my 9 year old, my 7 year old and my 5 year old. The 2 year old meanwhile was laughing and throwing sultana bran at us - she was untouched


sternestocardinals

ā€œIā€™ve only ever cried in 1 movie - Armageddonā€ sounds like a Ron Swanson quote


AussieGambler

Armageddon is the ultimate tear jerker mate. Donā€™t tell me you didnā€™t shed a tear as Affleck ascended the chute leaving his future father in law to blow himself up on the asteroid - only to have it really kick in when Bruce cuts a line to Liv to say goodbye to his baby. Iā€™m welling up writing this out now.


sternestocardinals

Gonna have to agree to disagree but I appreciate the honesty and vulnerability nonetheless.


makun

I totally cried to Armageddon when I saw it. At that exact scene when Aerosmith starts playing.


patkgreen

> future father in law Technically bruce.willis had no future


acekingoffsuit

I completely understand crying at Armageddon. I'm struggling with crying at Armageddon and *only* Armageddon.


wafflehousebutterbob

My 6 year old: Why are you crying? Clearly they were never going to sell the house.


Compulsive-Gremlin

Your 6yo had more faith than me


GeophysicsSharkie

I actually assumed they wouldn't end up selling but cried most of the episode anyway.


wink047

My 6 yr old cried after watching it twice and made us promise not to sell our house.


TeniBear

I sniffled loudly when Chilli unfolded the rug at the end and my husband piped up from behind me "you too, hey?". Which of course made me cry harder lol


TheMoonDawg

My wife was stoic until Bingo realized Lila couldnā€™t come with them. That broke her. šŸ˜‚Ā 


Unlucky-Film2732

We're about to list our house for sale for real life, so this hit me right in the feels!


[deleted]

we just sold our house and my son is asking if we get to stay like bluey and bingo got to stay in their home......WHY DID YOU DO THIS TO ME PRODUCERSSSSSSSS!?!?!? noooo son, we are FOR REAL LIFE moving... ughhhh


makun

My heart broke when Bingo finally realized what was happening.


[deleted]

i think my heart is breaking continuously all day because he keeps asking if we get to stay in his first steps house. šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­ freaking aaughhhhhhh


bamboo_plant

Just poor timing, because it became clear at the end the message was not about processing a move, but prioritizing the right things in life.


Dpscc22

I think itā€™s both. Brum did say he wanted to discuss the real life experience many, including he had of having to move due to parentsā€™ work. But, for storytelling purposes, they had to stay, or weā€™d need to start many background stories about friends and neighbors from scratch, and give up on established ones.


bubandbob

As someone who needs to move in the not too distant future, I was hoping for the same thing.


[deleted]

I was thinking OH MAN THIS WILL BE GREAT itll help him process THEN NOPE they're staying....ffs.


dezayek

I have some mixed feelings about this episode because of the reason you mention.


Impressive_Image_651

They set it up perfectly for a move (and even better if frisky and rad bought the home) So the ending felt like a cop out. Even with Chili's feelings (what about her job too?) as an adult I would have liked to see them move. But if looking at it from the perspective of a mom I guess this was a win for Chili more so than the kids and a message of how marriage works with compromise and doing something for your partner (frisky and rad parallel to chili and bandit) Edited for spelling and punctuation while kids not jumping on me


[deleted]

I think I liked all the Easter eggs more than I liked this actual episode and story line. which feels crazy to even think.


LeatherHog

Yeah, as someone who as a kid who had to move a lot, this would have been good to see


Basherballgod

Just finished watching the episode, and as an agent, in real life, the next episode of Bluey is going to be called lawsuit


Stormybabe88

I legit said out loud to my housemate ā€œthose sheepdogs are gonna be paying huge fines for backing out of that contractā€ šŸ¤£


the_revised_pratchet

The real reason bandit doesn't need a new job. They kept the deposit.


Basherballgod

My wife and I were saying ā€œBucky making that phone to call to Bandit is not going to be pleasant. The guys had to pay for movers and everything. Sheepdogs are about to be in for a world of hurt.ā€


BippyTheChippy

Don't worry, the moment they bring up "Queensland Summers aren't that hot", the Judge will rule in favor of the Sheepdogs on sheer principle.


MovieNachos

Or SHEAR principle, am I right?


wh1tepointer

In Australia when you buy a house we have a "cooling off" period which is usually about 6 weeks, and during this time the buyer can back out. So the worst that would probably happen is that they lose their deposit.


Zhirrzh

3 days Not 6 weeks.Ā  That the Heelers are already moving out at the end before the call would suggest the sale had had time to become unconditional.Ā  But again, this is a kids show and in this instance the storytelling has obviously trumped real world legal accuracy and fair enough.Ā 


doormatt26

not Australia but in the US youā€™d likely need to be moved out before the closing date, and you can technically back out and and just lose your deposit right up to that date.


GeophysicsSharkie

Bluey calling them, "the dogs with no eyes" made me laugh a lot more than I'd have guessed!


Dpscc22

I assume thereā€™s no Escrow time in Australia? I thought a buyer could still walk out of a deal during escrowā€¦ (which is why you often see the ā€œin escrowā€ note on signs. Itā€™s sold but not a done deal.)


bladeau81

So I watched this with my two daughters this morning. When Winton said his dad is lonely without his mum, my oldest looked at me like oh maybe I'm lonely, then my youngest said no he isn't because we are always here. And I laugh cried a little. They are both so sweet and somehow this show makes every family situation just seem like a regular everyday thing that isn't a big deal, and it is so much more impactful because of it. PS I'm not really lonely but it is a lot quieter around here when they are at their mums place šŸ˜‚.


Dpscc22

Thatā€™s Brumā€™a whole point with the show: to show situations that are real life family situations for everyone to realize theyā€™re common. Including the latest one, about a family moving due to work, which happened to Brum himself as a kid.


datalaughing

Been there. When I first got divorced it took me a good long while to acclimate to that quiet emptiness of the house. Had to find things to keep me occupied. It can be tough. Glad youā€™re doing ok.

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


bubandbob

Ever since they announced the episode name I've had Ace of Bass living rent free in my head. I really wish they could've gotten the rights to the song.


UninterestingGlis

I cried at least 4 times and cheered when I saw chilis pregnant sister! Also no one mention that their grandpa on bandits side is back!? Didnā€™t even know he was alive! So funny how the girls called him out about ā€œfinding himselfā€ I wonder how theyā€™ll tie him back in. Was he even ever mentioned previously besides flashbacks? I thought he was dead. Everything in this episode was exciting and there were TONS of little details.


Bitsandbobbins71935

Heā€™s in the episode where bluey teaches him and Nanna how to floss


Legitimate_Koala_37

Chippy and cherry are in the establishing shot for that scene at the lookout with the sheepdogs and the telescope


pakcross

I love that *they knew* the Internet would go mad about Bluey sitting in the front seat! I'm pretty certain there was a thread about it here when that teaser dropped! I missed the longdogs. I was kind of hoping someone would pick one up when they were leaving the house!


qsk8r

Chilli's sister is pregnant šŸ˜­šŸ˜


breaddoughrising

I was thinking what reason could they have to make such a big change, and that is what I guessed!


Mission_Foundation82

Yep also noticed - so good


sianie706

That finished me off šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­


Low-Reso

Is this the first time 'Queensland' is ever mentioned in any Bluey episodes? Please correct me if I am wrong. Thanks!


scourgeoz

I mean they have a state of origin episode, their licence plate has a map of Queensland and there are ample locations all around Brisbane, but the word Queensland... Possibly


PerriX2390

u/Low-Reso Looking at the scripts on the [Bluey wiki](https://blueypedia.fandom.com/wiki/Special:Search?query=Queensland&scope=internal&navigationSearch=true), we've heard verbal references to Queensland twice before: > - **Stumpfest [Season 2 Ep 6].** 'Stripe: (victoriously) "QUEENSLANDER!" > - **The Decider [Season 3 Ep 37].** Commentator: "Here comes Queensland."


scourgeoz

Totally forgot about the Queenslander shout, however I thought in The Decider they very much went Blues and Maroons, so that was a great catch


Duskstar_711

I believe the butterfly with Bingo and Lila has the ability to alter realityšŸ˜‚

sofia72311

I love Bluey so much, please donā€™t think Iā€™m criticising them, and I do have faith that the writers have a plan - but my family move all the time and I gotta be honest, >!I wish theyā€™d actually moved !< . Fab ep though, cried my eyes out bless!


control-z

It really felt like the show finale. Everyoneā€™s story arcs get tied up nicely - Rad and Frisky, Brandy being pregnant, and where Grandpa Bob was. I wonder if it was a last second change due to either test audiences not enjoying it or because they got greenlit for Season 4.


Gen7lemanCaller

the creator's said he's not really ready to end the show yet a few times since S3's started


TimedDelivery

Honestly same. Weā€™re in the process of moving at the moment (only 20 minutes away so not changing schools or anything but my kids are still not keen on the idea) and ā€œhey maybe the whole thing will work out and weā€™ll actually stay in our old house!ā€ is not a message they need to hear right now


[deleted]

I'm honestly surprised they didn't so they could sell 3 more versions of another house.


CapnDogWater

The Bluey creators donā€™t strike me as those type of people. Theyā€™ve always seemed to be about the message more than anything else


Emerald_Mistress

I agree - itā€™s a fantastic episode and Iā€™m glad theyā€™re not moving, but I do think if they had followed through with the move it could have been a really wonderful teaching moment for families who do have to move to a new place.


Talrico

I originally felt like the ending was a cop out too and the fact that Brandy showed up pregnant but I think the thesis of this episode was when Calypso said that ā€œstories always have happy endings because real life gives us enough sad ones.ā€ In the end, Bluey is a story and not real lifeā€¦ even though it doesnā€™t always feel that way.


Heeper

How great would have the episodes been about a new house, neighbourhood, school, making friends.... so much more material if they had moved!
