‘I’m in America!’ he thought. ‘This is wonderful!’ He started taking photos again. Near a wall there were two policemen. Mr Bean watched them, and then he saw their guns. He thought of a game, and smiled. He put one hand slowly inside his jacket and looked for his gun. Not really! Mr Bean didn’t have a gun, of course – he only wanted to play a game.

The two policemen suddenly turned and saw him. They stopped talking and looked carefully at Mr Bean. What was this little man’s game? Did he have a gun?
‘Quick!’ said one of the policemen. ‘He’s got a gun! Get him!’
Mr Bean gave them a smile. Then he turned and ran the other way, fast!

‘Everybody on the floor! Now!’ shouted the policemen.
Everybody in the airport was afraid. People fell to the ground. Mr Bean saw them and fell to the ground too!
‘Not you, stupid!’ a man next to him said.

‘Oh, thank you,’ said Mr Bean. He got up and started to run away again.
But the policemen ran faster and caught him. They stood in front of him with their guns in his face.
‘Slowly take out your gun,’ they told him. ‘Put it on the floor and stand back.’

Mr Bean was very afraid. He carefully put his hand in his jacket ... and took out his two fingers.
‘It was only a game,’ he said. ‘I haven’t really got a gun.’
The policemen looked at him. Who was this strange little man?
‘Get out of here!’ they shouted angrily.
Mr Bean got out, fast.
