Ep 19. Mikey-Plication

Bunsen is a Beast! follows the adventures of Bunsen, a lovable and enthusiastic beast, and his human best friend, Mikey. In season 1 episode 19, titled "Mikey-Plication," Bunsen and Mikey accidentally create a clone of Mikey after Bunsen's beastly transformation powers go haywire.

The episode begins with the duo attempting to create a fun, new game to play. Mikey has an idea for a game where they race to see who can eat a cherry pie the fastest. Bunsen is hesitant, as he knows that whenever he gets too excited, his beastly transformation powers can cause chaos. However, he agrees to play the game regardless.

As Bunsen and Mikey race to eat their pies, Bunsen becomes overly excited and transforms into a giant whirlwind that sucks up everything in its path. In the chaos, Bunsen accidentally duplicates Mikey, creating two identical versions of his best friend.

At first, Mikey is thrilled to have a clone and decides to name him "Mikey Two." However, as they spend more time together, Mikey realizes that having an identical twin is not as fun as he had imagined. Mikey Two copies everything Mikey does, from his clothes to his mannerisms. This becomes annoying for Mikey, who wants to be his own person.

Meanwhile, Bunsen is determined to fix the situation and stop his powers from causing any more trouble. He enlists the help of Amanda, his beastly scientist friend. Together, they come up with a plan to reverse the duplication process and merge the two Mikeys into one.

However, the plan goes awry when Bunsen's whirlwind transformation returns, causing chaos yet again. The two Mikeys are separated once more, but this time they have each developed distinct personalities. Mikey Two has become a daredevil thrill-seeker, while the original Mikey has become more cautious and reserved.

The episode ends with the two Mikeys embracing their differences and deciding to be friends, rather than just clones of one another.

"Mikey-Plication" is a lighthearted and entertaining episode that explores the theme of individuality. It showcases Bunsen's eagerness to fix his mistakes and his loyalty to his best friend. The episode also highlights the importance of embracing differences and being true to oneself.
