Ep 4. The Cheeseman

In Mr. Pickles season 1 episode 4, titled "The Cheeseman," we follow the story of a young boy named Tommy who is in love with a cheese commercial mascot named the Cheeseman. Despite his mother's disapproval, Tommy becomes obsessed with meeting his hero in person. Meanwhile, Mr. Pickles, the demonic Border Collie, has plans of his own when he gets wind of some devious schemes happening at the cheese factory where the Cheeseman works.

The episode begins with Tommy watching the Cheeseman on TV, hoping that one day he can meet him. His mother, however, is not a fan and tries to steer Tommy away from his obsession. We soon see that the Cheeseman is not just a commercial mascot, but an actual employee at a cheese factory. Mr. Pickles, who has been eyeing the factory for some time, sees an opportunity to cause chaos when he learns that the factory is planning to lay off workers.

As Tommy goes on a mission to meet the Cheeseman, Mr. Pickles sneaks into the factory to sabotage the cheese-making process. He creates a mess and causes the factory to temporarily shut down. This event coincides with Tommy's arrival at the factory, and while he is not able to meet the Cheeseman, he inadvertently finds himself in the middle of the chaos that Mr. Pickles has created.

Throughout the episode, we see the contrast between the innocent, childlike nature of Tommy and the malicious intent of Mr. Pickles. While Tommy's intentions are pure in his desire to meet his hero, Mr. Pickles' actions are purely evil and centered around causing destruction. This contrast adds depth to the show's characters and emphasizes the severity of Mr. Pickles' actions.

As the episode comes to a close, we see the fallout from Mr. Pickles' actions. The factory is closed and the Cheeseman is out of a job. Tommy, realizing the impact of Mr. Pickles' actions, seeks to make amends by holding a fundraiser to help the factory workers. Meanwhile, Mr. Pickles remains unaffected by the chaos he has caused, indicating that this is just another day in the life of the demonic dog.

Overall, "The Cheeseman" is an entertaining episode that showcases the show's unique blend of dark humor and twisted storylines. The contrast between the innocent, childlike nature of Tommy and the malicious intent of Mr. Pickles adds depth to the characters and makes for a memorable viewing experience.
