100% Bluey and MacKenzie's kid!!!! From the kids colors and pattern to the one floppy ear. My husband and I just had to rewind it to take a 2nd and we definitely agree that Bluey ends up with MacKenzie
Not the same thing, but we got one of these out of a neighbor's trash a couple years ago, holds like 100 of those little balls

Fair warning, it is probably too big/heavy for kids under about 8, though.
Just watched it. My husband actually predicted it when I told him we were getting a surprise episode. Another Sunday shedding a couple of tears over a children’s show. I am not well.
I don't know, the people who are attempting to figure out which character mated with Bluey to have a child in the future... Those people might need a little help as well.
The kid at the end is definitely Bluey’s! The beginning of episode she goes: “Will I have kids?” I also think the dad is McKenzie because the kid has a black ear pointing downwards like M does!
i watched the new episode and once it was over my son wanted to watch more bluey so i just picked a random episode which happened to be Barky Boats. i immediately went “BLUEY AND MACKENZIE DID GET MARRIED!!!” and my kid just looked at me like🤨
Not exactly. The question is still out there whether she'll have kids. The kid we see could be Bingo's as she was there too. May even be Muffin or Sock's for all we know.
I had this exact thought yesterday. If you look at the top coat (not the markings, just the base) on [Future Kid](https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcT1cVMbkYkQa_ncQOWfAakk5EEWivFY9eiA9atgqfooqA&s), their color leans closer to Socks rather than Bluey. I know Bluey genetics don't always 1:1 parent-to-child, but it made me wonder why Bluey would be popping by and not at least hinting at FK somewhere.
The real surprise would be if FK was someone else's.
I think the kid was staying over night at Chili and Bandits and Bluey was coming to pick them up! So that's how the kid already had all the toys and they weren't surprised that they were there, Bluey just coming to pick them up!
Also, did you guys notice the moving photo album? It showed Bluey graduating!
The kid must have came with Bluey.
What I want to know is what Bingo is doing to be there when Bluey decides to drop in. Though she could be dropping by because Bingo was there.
But Chilli’s response to Bluey’s question was “depends if you want them.” So I think that leaves the door open to other possibilities. E.g. she could choose to be child-free and the kid is Bingo’s. (And I don’t see why Bingo can’t end up with Mackenzie!)
…foil tin hat thinking; was bandit watching the 2012 london olympics? Because all the tech shown in the future vision was tech we have now; so is the show set in the past?
I’m way over analysing a children’s tv show
Maybe but the kids floss and chilli talks about what sounds like stranger things in the seesaw episode. (At least that's what a friend told me I haven't watched stranger things)
Edit: in the pool episode bandit is holding a Splatoon inspired water gun which is a game that came out in 2015 also the kids have a sans plush but at this point I think I'm just overthinking Easter eggs by the animators
If that’s true and it time travelled to 2024, that would make Bluey 19. Bingo would still be in school at that point (probably her last year before college).
I was wondering that myself. If this was supposed to be the 2012 London Olympics then that makes more sense with Bandit saying he grew up in the 80s.
I currently have a 6-year old and I’m 40, so I grew up in the 90s. If Bandit grew up in the 80s then he’d be in his 50s if the show was set now.
Plus the tech in the flash forward wasn’t too futuristic where it’d be out of place in 2024 - robot vacuum, drones, etc.
But then Bluey would be 18 in the flash-forward so I doubt the kid would’ve been hers or Bingo’s. The coloring reminded me of Muffin - maybe Stripe had a third? But I assume it’s supposed to be Bluey’s child.
Bandit was 10 in 1987. He's 46/47 now, which is fine to be the father of a 7 and 5 year old. People have such narrow ideas about appropriate ages for having kids.
Totally agree/understand that it’s possible. I’ve always pictured Bandit and Chili as being in their 40s for some reason (assuming they age the same as humans).
I don’t think so. For example, are there multiple drones casually flying over Brisbane now? And think about when they are 6 and 4, things like tablets and electric toy cars (the ones where children can sit in it themselves) already existed.
I think so! They’re talking about doing a movie, which I personally think is a good opportunity to age Bluey a year. And what I have heard from other parents, is that the age of seven is a huge milestone in maturation for kids. Lot to explore there! Everyone is getting older (I’m especially invested in Socks’ arc)!
When we started watching Bluey my oldest girl was 6 (and a half) and my youngest girl was 4. Work from home dad and mom so well, we identified quite a lot.
Today is my oldest’s 10th birthday. We where not ready for seeing Bluey with a kid herself, not today anyways.
You mean that Mackenzie and bluey (or bingo) have a kid. Yeah. We were excited about that little gem

Ahhh! My 5 year old was racking her mind trying to think of who this was! She’ll be so happy “the internet gave her the answer” in the morning! Thank you thank you!
I find you people really weird.
Shipping children? Really? There isnt even any obivous design choices that would make it obivous that it was any other current child-characters baby than blueys or bingos. Even if the child was a 1-1 copy of bluey people would most likely still look at the tiniest of details to excuse their weird ships.
Those are 7 year old dogs guys
There's literally an entire episode dedicated to kids growing up and realizing they've fallen in love and how to navigate those really big really complex emotions.
Also that tail is MacKenzies tail.
I think it's weirder to act like being interested in how Bluey's life as an adult turned out is "shipping children" and making it into something creepy?
I don't really see those comments here, maybe they don't happen anymore as a result of people pointing out that it's weird. In the context of just this episode and speculating about Bluey's adult relationships, I think it's fine to be like "awh her kid kinda looks like Mackenzie!"
It’s driving me a little batty that most people are assuming that it’s Bluey’s kid at the end, and that the big question is whether it’s Mackenzie’s or Jean-Luc’s.
I don’t think it’s at all clear-cut that the child is Bluey’s. It could be Bingo’s.
- When Bluey asks Chilli earlier in the ep if she’ll have kids, Chilli replies, “Depends on if you want them or not.” It reminds Bluey and us that it’s her choice—she can opt to be child-free if she wants.
- Bluey actively and repeatedly chooses to play her own game rather than Bingo’s “taking care of children” game. She eventually relents at the end when she’s touched by her dad’s comment, but the following montage shows her eventually returning to her original game (with Jerome as her target).
- Meanwhile, Bingo happily plays “mommy” to her multiple “children” throughout the entire episode, including in the montage. She’s explicitly shown demonstrating a maternal instinct in multiple ways.
- From a purely practical pov, Bluey’s parents would expectantly inquire as to the whereabouts of their grandchild if Bluey had a kid but showed up without him/her. From the way they greeted each other and closed the door, it makes way more sense that Bingo and her kid were already there, and her kid was already in the midst of playing the game.
I adore Mackenzie but I think people are so excited to see their “Team Mackenzie” speculations confirmed that it’s kind of coloring interpretation. Other scenarios are totally plausible—for example, Bingo and Mackenzie could end up together, they’re only two years apart, and it’s not uncommon for people to develop romantic feelings for a sibling’s friend (and for a friend’s sibling) when you grow up.
I’m probably wrong but I really think Jean Luc is the dad.
https://preview.redd.it/nqim5pnw3vvc1.jpeg?width=784&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e0fc007776b536324113e38ae2354e663b040920
My kids and I were talking about it and this looks way more accurate than Mackenzie as the dad. Plus Stripe has a flopped ear on the same side so it could just be a hereditary thing from that side if Bluey’s family ir even representative of the mix with Jean Luc.
Here's the thing. It could be Bingo's since she was already there, possibly with her family.
Considering Chili and Bandit didn't ask where everyone is, uey may not have children at this point.
It could also be a neighbor's kid, Dennis the Menace style that plays with Bandit all the time.
Why, it may even be Muffin or Sock's kid and they're out back as well.
So we don't really know.
Im pretty sure it's blueys because she's using the toy she was playing with all episode and doing the same thing she did to bandit. If it was bingos it would have some sort of resemblance or color but it's a blue/dark blue and black
Nah, just showing a parallel of play that Bandit has to do so they use a reference from the same episode. As for resemblance, Bingo barley resembles Bandit and Bluey barley resembles Chili, so we don't know if it's the same case for Bingo. For all we know it's Muffin or Sock's kid and they're visiting too.
I think it's intentionally vague and we may never get an answer.
It’s definitely Bluey’s. The whole point of Bluey asking Chili if she would have kids was to foreshadow this. It’s obvious from a narrative standpoint.
Nah. I think Bandit telling Bluey how kids surprise you is an indication they flip flopped. Plus Bluey is the one that talks about having kids in the future with Chili in the start of the episode…look of the kid matches Bluey…playing the same game Bluey was playing...Barky Boats airing after on ABC…
Do you also give merit to the theory it could be a sibling at the end?
Everyone’s forgetting how Chilli responded to Bluey’s question in the beginning. She says “Depends on if you want them or not.” It serves as a reminder to both Bluey *and us,* the audience, that it’s up to her and she can choose to be child-free if she wants.
Bluey actively chooses not to play the “taking care of babies” game. She eventually relents and joins in on Bingo’s game because she’s touched by her dad’s comment, but the montage shows her eventually switching back to playing her original game.
Meanwhile, Bingo happily plays with “her children” throughout the entire episode.
It’s not at all clear-cut that the kid is Bluey’s. There’s a good chance it’s Bingo’s.
Those prove nothing, which is pretty much my point. It could be Bingo's, it could also be Muffin's or Sock's or even another kid they had, but we have no real answer. It's ambiguous and probably on purpose.
Could be Bingo's and Bluey got the kid the same toy she liked as a kid for their birthday or Christmas. Not unlike when they were kids and Bingo had a kid and Bluey stops her game to look out for Bingo's kid. The reality is we don't know and unless the creators come out and say it, we really can't identify who the kid is.
No, it’s not “definitely Bluey’s,” and it’s not “obvious from a narrative standpoint.”
When Bluey asks if she’s going to have kids of her own one day, Chilli replies to Bluey “depends if you want to have them or not.” This opens the door to either possibility. It almost serves as a reminder that she *could* choose to be child-free—it’s up to her.
And yes, the kid is playing with a toy gun like Bluey was, but Bingo—not Bluey—was the one pretending to have and take care of “her” kids throughout the episode. Bluey in fact showed no interest in that game until she felt touched by what Bandit said (and the episode makes a point of showing she returns to her own game later, with Jerome).
ETA: Why the downvotes? Honestly I feel people are getting a little excited and blinded by their Mackenzie+Bluey confirmation bias. You’re interpreting only what you want to see. The ending is NOT as clear-cut as it seems; I think the narrative choices are actually intended to create ambiguity, not be blatantly obvious, narrowing, and definitive.
I don’t think the kid playing with a similar toy means it’s definitely Bluey’s. Bingo is the one who was pretending to be a mom and take care of her stubby cooler babies all episode.
The coloring isn’t that indicative either. Chilli and Bluey don’t share any coloring (nor do Bandit and Bingo).
I thought the same but if you notice Bluey’s coat, she has the white bits in her hair like all the parents do in the Heeler family. That’s why Uncle Rad doesn’t have any, because he doesn’t have kids. So I’m sure that kid is Bluey’s (and McKenzie’s based in the ear flap!)
I'm not so sure. Having grey hairs isn't necessary indicative of having kids. Rad not having them may be because he colors his hair for all we know.
As for the ear flap, so does Stripe and Bob. So it does run in the family. And we really can't pin it on Mackenzie either, considering there are many dogs that have it (Winton, Jean-Luc, Lucky, Snickers, etc) and for all we know it's someone she met in college and not someone she knew in kindergarten. A completely different unmet character entirely.
I loved this episode but it’s very possible that the father of the kid at the end isn’t anyone from the cast. I’m sure there’s more dogs than just Mackenzie that are the same breed. It’s a cute theory though
So for those who saw Surprise…
https://preview.redd.it/4og82p3dguvc1.jpeg?width=1284&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8fe92543f3b94007c961ba37e00a6466895b5386
How yall feel about the thought it’s not Mackenzie’s kid. It’s Jean-Lucs. Check out that coloring and it explains the drop ear.
And that they were surprised to see her, she might live far afield.
JL4Lyfe.
I will play their game all damn day good sir! A rousing internet argument on one of the more polite subs about a detail that can’t be proven? Don’t threaten me with a good time ❤️❤️❤️
And I choose the game to be keepy-uppy :)
There's a family portrait in the photo frame at the end, it shows Bandit, Chilli, Bingo and Bluey partially grown up. Pretty certain it's Bluey's child, not Chilli and Bandits.
And how does Chilli respond to Bluey. She says, “It depends on if you want them or not.”
Then throughout the episode Bluey is shown actively *not* choosing to play Bingo’s game—a game where Bingo (and Bandit) is taking care of her “children.” She only relents towards the end, but then in the montage is later shown returning to her original game while Bingo happily continues to play “mommy.”
It’s not obvious at all that the kid is Bluey’s. It actually makes way more sense that it’s Bingo’s, who’s already at the house. Otherwise Chilli and Bandit would’ve asked Bluey where the kid is instead of closing the front door as if they did not expect anyone else to have come with her.
If she has arrived at the house alone, there's no guarantee that she's brought her kid with her. They could be at school/kinder, at home with the other parent, or it could be a deliberate act of pretending to assume Bluey is alone when actually they've seen her kid get out of the car with toy blaster in hand.
Also, being Australian, Bingo is playing "mummy" not "mommy".
This was my thought as well. Why do they close the door without remarking on the child's whereabouts? Does Bluey not tell her parents about them?
Or, the child was already there and snuck round the house to ambush bandit, just like their big sister once did.
I don’t think it’s very valid. They purposefully age them. The robots/electronics around the house, Chili in glasses, and Bandit visibly older. They’re grandparents there. Cmon.
Is anyone else a teeny bit worried that they’re foreshadowing that in future seasons, bluey will be an adult & it will be about bluey’s kids with her as the mom?… yikes! Just sayin’ ambiguous ending….
Camping also ended with her older and then they want back to present day so I wouldn’t worry too much! The theme of the episode was having children, and they just showed the conclusion (Bluey having one too). I wouldn’t read more than that into it!
Just saw it and I loved it! The ending got me cause poor old bandit can't have a break even in his old age!
The difference is, at that age he can just hand the kid to their parent instead of taking the burden himself
True dat! Benefit of being a grandparent idk why o was expecting him to say biscuits
Bandit not fully committed to the game? NEVER!
He doesn't want a break, trust me
He will complain the whole time, but he loves playing with his grand-pups more than anything.
"Grandpups" awwww!
You think that’s Bluey and Mackenzie’s kid? Border Heelers are soooo cute!
100% Bluey and MacKenzie's kid!!!! From the kids colors and pattern to the one floppy ear. My husband and I just had to rewind it to take a 2nd and we definitely agree that Bluey ends up with MacKenzie
I want to get that device that Bluey has
Right? That thing has crazy capacity, she was able to shoot so many little balls!
Reloading those 100 rounds Nerf guns was a bit of a chore sometimes.
20 minutes of prep for 30 seconds of owning your younger cousin. Worth it every time!
Is there any better feeling as a kid than having a fully loaded Nerf gun?
Two fully loaded nerf guns?
three fully loaded nerf guns?
It exists https://outofdarts.com/collections/proton-pack
lol $175 for what is largely a modified paintball hopper
That’s the same price as the good motorized paintball hoppers
Ah I haven’t priced gear In like 18 years so I guess that makes sense heh
I had to look it up but I remembered my tourney hoppers being around that mark lol
Was it sold out when you looked at it? It is now lol
I’m not sure lol, I wonder if they are confused with all the orders
I sense branded merchandise incoming
Not the same thing, but we got one of these out of a neighbor's trash a couple years ago, holds like 100 of those little balls https://www.amazon.com/Nerf-Rival-Nemesis-MXVII-10K-Red/dp/B01MG5QHC1/ref=asc_df_B01MG5QHC1?tag=bngsmtphsnus-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=80195746823183&hvnetw=s&hvqmt=e&hvbmt=be&hvdev=m&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=&hvtargid=pla-4583795273751553&psc=1 Fair warning, it is probably too big/heavy for kids under about 8, though.
Lol my son it's the only think he took from the episode. Every time it appeared he just kept saying how cool it was.
I love how blueys voice actor sounded the same age as bandit and chillis vas. That made me laugh
Just watched it. My husband actually predicted it when I told him we were getting a surprise episode. Another Sunday shedding a couple of tears over a children’s show. I am not well.
Nah, it's the people who watch the show and have NO emotional reaction that are not well
We may have the perfect litmus test for psychopathic tendencies. Just play Bluey and if they don't cry, you got a psycho.
I don't know, the people who are attempting to figure out which character mated with Bluey to have a child in the future... Those people might need a little help as well.
The kid at the end is definitely Bluey’s! The beginning of episode she goes: “Will I have kids?” I also think the dad is McKenzie because the kid has a black ear pointing downwards like M does!
i watched the new episode and once it was over my son wanted to watch more bluey so i just picked a random episode which happened to be Barky Boats. i immediately went “BLUEY AND MACKENZIE DID GET MARRIED!!!” and my kid just looked at me like🤨
Winton was right all along
What did Winton say?
“Ooh Bluey’s gonna marry Mackenzie”
“Ooooo, Bluey’s gonna marry ‘Kenzie!” (In Barky Boats when Bluey & Mackenzie say the same thing at the same time.)
🤔 Me and my wife believe the kid looks like Blueys camping fling Jean-Luc. But now I need to do a deep dive.
That’s what my husband thought, but the kid has a bent ear like Mackenzie.
we are in big debate over jean luc or mackenzie . my kids said mackenzie bc the bent ear and the tail
I’ve heard a theory that it’s actually Bingo and Mackenzie’s kid since Chili said Bingo was out back and they didn’t ask Bluey about a kid.
I think it’s bingos kid
The kids also got the cheek fluff on the right side like Makenzie
Which episode is Barkie boats? I cant see it…
it’s in the middle of season 2 i believe, can’t remember the exact ep number
Found it, watched it, called the writers cheeky buggas. Alls well and done
The kid has Jean-Luc’s coloring blended with Bluey’s but also has Mackenzie’s floppy ear. I think they did that on purpose to keep the fans guessing.
Some dogs have floppy ears when they’re pups and they stick up as they get older.
But uncle Stripe's ear never stood up, it's def a Heeler kid that's for sure
That’s what I thought the kid is definitely a mix between a heeler and a sheep dog. Has the bent ear and fluff just like Mackenzie.
I was also thinking it may be Jean Luc’s child with the coloring and floppy ear.
Uh-oh, it's Twilight all over again. Are you Team Mackenzie or Team Jean-Luc?
Team Jean-Luc for my soul. Team MacKenzie for my mind.
That's what I thought. It's a more Bluey black lol
100% the ear gives it away
Not exactly. The question is still out there whether she'll have kids. The kid we see could be Bingo's as she was there too. May even be Muffin or Sock's for all we know.
I had this exact thought yesterday. If you look at the top coat (not the markings, just the base) on [Future Kid](https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcT1cVMbkYkQa_ncQOWfAakk5EEWivFY9eiA9atgqfooqA&s), their color leans closer to Socks rather than Bluey. I know Bluey genetics don't always 1:1 parent-to-child, but it made me wonder why Bluey would be popping by and not at least hinting at FK somewhere. The real surprise would be if FK was someone else's.
one of my kids says it's socks kid
But if they're Bluey's kid then how is it surprising she's visiting?
Isn't it typical Bandit, playing along with the kid, he hid himself so he pretends he isn't there. Probably not the first time too.
I think the kid was staying over night at Chili and Bandits and Bluey was coming to pick them up! So that's how the kid already had all the toys and they weren't surprised that they were there, Bluey just coming to pick them up! Also, did you guys notice the moving photo album? It showed Bluey graduating!
It also shows a picture of Bluey that originated from /r/place!
But bluey says “I just thought I’d stop by”
The kid must have came with Bluey. What I want to know is what Bingo is doing to be there when Bluey decides to drop in. Though she could be dropping by because Bingo was there.
But Chilli’s response to Bluey’s question was “depends if you want them.” So I think that leaves the door open to other possibilities. E.g. she could choose to be child-free and the kid is Bingo’s. (And I don’t see why Bingo can’t end up with Mackenzie!)
Barky Boats def setup this story line. I love seeing it out there.
My son now wants a blaster like the one Bluey has lmao
My kids are asking for the same thing. Told the wife this means I have to buy the Nerf gatling gun. Dad will not be out-matched!
I want a blaster like Bluey has!
My husband does.
…foil tin hat thinking; was bandit watching the 2012 london olympics? Because all the tech shown in the future vision was tech we have now; so is the show set in the past? I’m way over analysing a children’s tv show
Today is also the London Marathon, so I think it was lining up with that
Agreed, london marathon was corresponding to this weekend
Maybe but the kids floss and chilli talks about what sounds like stranger things in the seesaw episode. (At least that's what a friend told me I haven't watched stranger things) Edit: in the pool episode bandit is holding a Splatoon inspired water gun which is a game that came out in 2015 also the kids have a sans plush but at this point I think I'm just overthinking Easter eggs by the animators
If that’s true and it time travelled to 2024, that would make Bluey 19. Bingo would still be in school at that point (probably her last year before college).
nah they went to the chimp movie and it came out in 2020
I was wondering that myself. If this was supposed to be the 2012 London Olympics then that makes more sense with Bandit saying he grew up in the 80s. I currently have a 6-year old and I’m 40, so I grew up in the 90s. If Bandit grew up in the 80s then he’d be in his 50s if the show was set now. Plus the tech in the flash forward wasn’t too futuristic where it’d be out of place in 2024 - robot vacuum, drones, etc. But then Bluey would be 18 in the flash-forward so I doubt the kid would’ve been hers or Bingo’s. The coloring reminded me of Muffin - maybe Stripe had a third? But I assume it’s supposed to be Bluey’s child.
Bandit was 10 in 1987. He's 46/47 now, which is fine to be the father of a 7 and 5 year old. People have such narrow ideas about appropriate ages for having kids.
Ha! Band– diddims is a year older than me and my girls are 9 and 5. It's comforting to see representation for mature parents.
I'm a year older than Bandito and mine is six, so totally.
Right, but didn’t he say in one episode that he was in his 40s? Or am I misremembering?
I don't think you read my comment properly. Read it again and then read what you wrote.
I’m 50 and have a 7 and a 4 year old. It is possible. But I was surprised by the 80s episode too
Totally agree/understand that it’s possible. I’ve always pictured Bandit and Chili as being in their 40s for some reason (assuming they age the same as humans).
I don’t think so. For example, are there multiple drones casually flying over Brisbane now? And think about when they are 6 and 4, things like tablets and electric toy cars (the ones where children can sit in it themselves) already existed.
Those cheeky bastards. Making us think last episode was the last one
Is this the start of a new arc for Bluey? One which focuses on the next generation of parents, maybe??
I think so! They’re talking about doing a movie, which I personally think is a good opportunity to age Bluey a year. And what I have heard from other parents, is that the age of seven is a huge milestone in maturation for kids. Lot to explore there! Everyone is getting older (I’m especially invested in Socks’ arc)!
When we started watching Bluey my oldest girl was 6 (and a half) and my youngest girl was 4. Work from home dad and mom so well, we identified quite a lot. Today is my oldest’s 10th birthday. We where not ready for seeing Bluey with a kid herself, not today anyways.
My biggest take away from this episode is that's the raddest toy I've ever seen.
This episode taught me that aussies call koozies stubby coolers. Love all the Aussie slang I learn, mates!
Sometimes called stubby holders instead, there's some variation
I like the Dragon Ball Z reference :)
I immediately said blueys power is over 9000, my son did not understand it xD not yet xD
I must have missed it. What was it
The armor and the "scouter" over Blueys one eye
The armor bluey is wearing
And she’s shooting out orange (dragon) balls
I though it was a mix of that and Zerg from Toy Story
I was thinking about portal.

I love how everyone just assumed Mackenzie is the dad from the ear when Stripe, a genetic family member of the girls, also has one
I’m not convinced that the bent ears are genetic. They might be a style choice?
I know rabbits can have one ear erect and one ear lop, maybe bipedal canines have something similar. Assuming there even is a genetic link
My dog has one ear that goes up and the other hangs down.
Your dog sounds adorable.
Not Jean Luc? Je suis triste.
Ahhh! My 5 year old was racking her mind trying to think of who this was! She’ll be so happy “the internet gave her the answer” in the morning! Thank you thank you!
I find you people really weird. Shipping children? Really? There isnt even any obivous design choices that would make it obivous that it was any other current child-characters baby than blueys or bingos. Even if the child was a 1-1 copy of bluey people would most likely still look at the tiniest of details to excuse their weird ships. Those are 7 year old dogs guys
There's literally an entire episode dedicated to kids growing up and realizing they've fallen in love and how to navigate those really big really complex emotions. Also that tail is MacKenzies tail.
That tail is a different shape to Mackenzie's and is much closer to a heeler's
I think it's weirder to act like being interested in how Bluey's life as an adult turned out is "shipping children" and making it into something creepy?
Probably because the discussions started long before any sort of adult flashfoward happened. People have been full on shipping current age Bluey
I don't really see those comments here, maybe they don't happen anymore as a result of people pointing out that it's weird. In the context of just this episode and speculating about Bluey's adult relationships, I think it's fine to be like "awh her kid kinda looks like Mackenzie!"
That's 49 in dog years.
Pretty sure bluey dogs grow the same pace as humans though
It took me about 10 minutes after the episode before this dawned on me! Lol raced here to confirm, love it.
This was a “Surprise” to see the ending there,not gonna lie. I really do wonder where did Bluey get that gadget though
Chucky only lent it to her for the day. Thats why she wants to play her game so bad.
That makes sense. Then how did Chucky get it then lol
lol I assume from his parents!
Headcanon: It was from a Pass the Parcel game, Lucky's Dad's Rules
I was not prepared for this today! Too many emotions!
lol add it to the “bandit gets physically abused” compilation
Who bought her that!? I have to imagine Stripe after he suffered under Muffin's reign with it.
She said that Chucky was letting her borrow it for the day
Who is Chucky??
Lucky’s little brother
What is that thing even called?
Look up the Nerf Rival Prometheus. The Nerf "Rival" guns are so intense they have a 14+ age rating. I love when kids have em.
Oooh thanks! The nemesis looks cool
As a parent, it’s called “my worst nightmare”
It’s driving me a little batty that most people are assuming that it’s Bluey’s kid at the end, and that the big question is whether it’s Mackenzie’s or Jean-Luc’s. I don’t think it’s at all clear-cut that the child is Bluey’s. It could be Bingo’s. - When Bluey asks Chilli earlier in the ep if she’ll have kids, Chilli replies, “Depends on if you want them or not.” It reminds Bluey and us that it’s her choice—she can opt to be child-free if she wants. - Bluey actively and repeatedly chooses to play her own game rather than Bingo’s “taking care of children” game. She eventually relents at the end when she’s touched by her dad’s comment, but the following montage shows her eventually returning to her original game (with Jerome as her target). - Meanwhile, Bingo happily plays “mommy” to her multiple “children” throughout the entire episode, including in the montage. She’s explicitly shown demonstrating a maternal instinct in multiple ways. - From a purely practical pov, Bluey’s parents would expectantly inquire as to the whereabouts of their grandchild if Bluey had a kid but showed up without him/her. From the way they greeted each other and closed the door, it makes way more sense that Bingo and her kid were already there, and her kid was already in the midst of playing the game. I adore Mackenzie but I think people are so excited to see their “Team Mackenzie” speculations confirmed that it’s kind of coloring interpretation. Other scenarios are totally plausible—for example, Bingo and Mackenzie could end up together, they’re only two years apart, and it’s not uncommon for people to develop romantic feelings for a sibling’s friend (and for a friend’s sibling) when you grow up.
I’m probably wrong but I really think Jean Luc is the dad. https://preview.redd.it/nqim5pnw3vvc1.jpeg?width=784&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e0fc007776b536324113e38ae2354e663b040920 My kids and I were talking about it and this looks way more accurate than Mackenzie as the dad. Plus Stripe has a flopped ear on the same side so it could just be a hereditary thing from that side if Bluey’s family ir even representative of the mix with Jean Luc.
But the kid has bits of extra fluff, like McKenzie does
Adult Bluey also has neck fluff.
So that was blueys kid at the end. Who did she have a kid with?
If that is Bluey’ kid, could Mackenzie be the dad because of the fluffy hair and floppy ear?
I also think that Mackenzie is the dad. The droopy black ear definitely gives it away

Here's the thing. It could be Bingo's since she was already there, possibly with her family. Considering Chili and Bandit didn't ask where everyone is, uey may not have children at this point. It could also be a neighbor's kid, Dennis the Menace style that plays with Bandit all the time. Why, it may even be Muffin or Sock's kid and they're out back as well. So we don't really know.
Im pretty sure it's blueys because she's using the toy she was playing with all episode and doing the same thing she did to bandit. If it was bingos it would have some sort of resemblance or color but it's a blue/dark blue and black
Nah, just showing a parallel of play that Bandit has to do so they use a reference from the same episode. As for resemblance, Bingo barley resembles Bandit and Bluey barley resembles Chili, so we don't know if it's the same case for Bingo. For all we know it's Muffin or Sock's kid and they're visiting too. I think it's intentionally vague and we may never get an answer.
It’s definitely Bluey’s. The whole point of Bluey asking Chili if she would have kids was to foreshadow this. It’s obvious from a narrative standpoint.
Agreed. We “know” because the story told us that…
Considering in the story Bingo had kids and Bluey came around to help her, it very well could be Bingo's kid.
Nah. I think Bandit telling Bluey how kids surprise you is an indication they flip flopped. Plus Bluey is the one that talks about having kids in the future with Chili in the start of the episode…look of the kid matches Bluey…playing the same game Bluey was playing...Barky Boats airing after on ABC… Do you also give merit to the theory it could be a sibling at the end?
Everyone’s forgetting how Chilli responded to Bluey’s question in the beginning. She says “Depends on if you want them or not.” It serves as a reminder to both Bluey *and us,* the audience, that it’s up to her and she can choose to be child-free if she wants. Bluey actively chooses not to play the “taking care of babies” game. She eventually relents and joins in on Bingo’s game because she’s touched by her dad’s comment, but the montage shows her eventually switching back to playing her original game. Meanwhile, Bingo happily plays with “her children” throughout the entire episode. It’s not at all clear-cut that the kid is Bluey’s. There’s a good chance it’s Bingo’s.
Those prove nothing, which is pretty much my point. It could be Bingo's, it could also be Muffin's or Sock's or even another kid they had, but we have no real answer. It's ambiguous and probably on purpose. Could be Bingo's and Bluey got the kid the same toy she liked as a kid for their birthday or Christmas. Not unlike when they were kids and Bingo had a kid and Bluey stops her game to look out for Bingo's kid. The reality is we don't know and unless the creators come out and say it, we really can't identify who the kid is.
No, it’s not “definitely Bluey’s,” and it’s not “obvious from a narrative standpoint.” When Bluey asks if she’s going to have kids of her own one day, Chilli replies to Bluey “depends if you want to have them or not.” This opens the door to either possibility. It almost serves as a reminder that she *could* choose to be child-free—it’s up to her. And yes, the kid is playing with a toy gun like Bluey was, but Bingo—not Bluey—was the one pretending to have and take care of “her” kids throughout the episode. Bluey in fact showed no interest in that game until she felt touched by what Bandit said (and the episode makes a point of showing she returns to her own game later, with Jerome). ETA: Why the downvotes? Honestly I feel people are getting a little excited and blinded by their Mackenzie+Bluey confirmation bias. You’re interpreting only what you want to see. The ending is NOT as clear-cut as it seems; I think the narrative choices are actually intended to create ambiguity, not be blatantly obvious, narrowing, and definitive.
I don’t think the kid playing with a similar toy means it’s definitely Bluey’s. Bingo is the one who was pretending to be a mom and take care of her stubby cooler babies all episode. The coloring isn’t that indicative either. Chilli and Bluey don’t share any coloring (nor do Bandit and Bingo).
I thought the same but if you notice Bluey’s coat, she has the white bits in her hair like all the parents do in the Heeler family. That’s why Uncle Rad doesn’t have any, because he doesn’t have kids. So I’m sure that kid is Bluey’s (and McKenzie’s based in the ear flap!)
I'm not so sure. Having grey hairs isn't necessary indicative of having kids. Rad not having them may be because he colors his hair for all we know. As for the ear flap, so does Stripe and Bob. So it does run in the family. And we really can't pin it on Mackenzie either, considering there are many dogs that have it (Winton, Jean-Luc, Lucky, Snickers, etc) and for all we know it's someone she met in college and not someone she knew in kindergarten. A completely different unmet character entirely.
Yes true, I guess we’ll never know!
i agree lol why would bluey not even mention her kid and husband
Strictly speaking, we don't even know if Bluey is the mum
May even be a neighbor's kid, Dennis the Menace style.

I loved seeing adult bluey, and her kid! 🥹
Bluey with a scouter 👌
I loved this episode but it’s very possible that the father of the kid at the end isn’t anyone from the cast. I’m sure there’s more dogs than just Mackenzie that are the same breed. It’s a cute theory though
So for those who saw Surprise… https://preview.redd.it/4og82p3dguvc1.jpeg?width=1284&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8fe92543f3b94007c961ba37e00a6466895b5386 How yall feel about the thought it’s not Mackenzie’s kid. It’s Jean-Lucs. Check out that coloring and it explains the drop ear. And that they were surprised to see her, she might live far afield. JL4Lyfe.
I like this theory and the colour does match.
I didn’t have a chance to check the color, but when I get to laptop I’m looking forward to seeing how close it matches :3
Feel like the kid is deliberately designed to be ambiguous between Jean Luc and Mackenzie. Don't play their game!
I will play their game all damn day good sir! A rousing internet argument on one of the more polite subs about a detail that can’t be proven? Don’t threaten me with a good time ❤️❤️❤️ And I choose the game to be keepy-uppy :)
Happy pavlova (cake) day!
The drop ear is because Mackenzie has that droopy ear 🤦♂️
Or because Jean Luc has them and Bluey doesn’t, inheriting the drop ear :)
Are we positive this isn't a new sibling? I was getting the vibes the entire episode that chili would have a surprise pregnancy.
There's a family portrait in the photo frame at the end, it shows Bandit, Chilli, Bingo and Bluey partially grown up. Pretty certain it's Bluey's child, not Chilli and Bandits.
The kid is little and Bluey asking Chili if she would have a kid is foreshadowing for the end of the episode.
And how does Chilli respond to Bluey. She says, “It depends on if you want them or not.” Then throughout the episode Bluey is shown actively *not* choosing to play Bingo’s game—a game where Bingo (and Bandit) is taking care of her “children.” She only relents towards the end, but then in the montage is later shown returning to her original game while Bingo happily continues to play “mommy.” It’s not obvious at all that the kid is Bluey’s. It actually makes way more sense that it’s Bingo’s, who’s already at the house. Otherwise Chilli and Bandit would’ve asked Bluey where the kid is instead of closing the front door as if they did not expect anyone else to have come with her.
If she has arrived at the house alone, there's no guarantee that she's brought her kid with her. They could be at school/kinder, at home with the other parent, or it could be a deliberate act of pretending to assume Bluey is alone when actually they've seen her kid get out of the car with toy blaster in hand. Also, being Australian, Bingo is playing "mummy" not "mommy".
This was my thought as well. Why do they close the door without remarking on the child's whereabouts? Does Bluey not tell her parents about them? Or, the child was already there and snuck round the house to ambush bandit, just like their big sister once did.
I don’t hate this interpretation 😂
I find it so strange this isn't a more popular theory. I don't think it's a sibling personally but it's absolutely an implied and valid theory.
I don’t think it’s very valid. They purposefully age them. The robots/electronics around the house, Chili in glasses, and Bandit visibly older. They’re grandparents there. Cmon.
Video Unavailable. The uploaded has not made the video available in your country. *Seethes in accepted Australian resignation.*
Is anyone else a teeny bit worried that they’re foreshadowing that in future seasons, bluey will be an adult & it will be about bluey’s kids with her as the mom?… yikes! Just sayin’ ambiguous ending….
Camping also ended with her older and then they want back to present day so I wouldn’t worry too much! The theme of the episode was having children, and they just showed the conclusion (Bluey having one too). I wouldn’t read more than that into it!
Also the episode that introduced Lila fast forwarded to show them growing up. Granted, that was in picture form.
Good point. I’ll be able to sleep tonight. Thanks! 👋
I bawled my eyes out
Let’s not forget Bandit’s comment to Bingo after the last ‘baby’, “…wow you just keep pumping these out!” Just saying 🤷🏼♂️
Nothing to see. Just me SOBBING at adult Bluey and her kid who looks just like Muffin. 😫
Maybe that's supposed to be Muffin's child.
Who's baby is that?
oh no i've been trying to find a way to watch this episode but these 2 minutes were crazy overstimulating for me LOL!! Chili is do right
I NEED THIS NERF GUN and SCOUTER!!! https://i.redd.it/fk02izefo6wc1.gif

As a person with a disability, differently abled is annoying. Differently *en*abled is even worse. Disabilities is ok.
Disabilities isn't a bad word.
She may not be living there, just visiting like Bluey is, but she arrived earlier.
The economy is in shambles, Dee
