I think I get what Lauren was going for. It's based on those kids who do bad things and then blame it on an imaginary character. There really are children who do that sort of thing but in this show imaginary characters become real. That kid must be a real sociopath to create someone so pointlessly cruel. This might have been a better episode if handled differently. Who knows?
***** Star is just the same character as Mabel Pines. Well people behind Star vs The Forces of Evil,if I wanted to see Mabel Pines, I'd watch Gravity Falls. Sorry I'm not interested.
The worst part is Bendy never gets punished for his actions, in most good cartoons when a character, whether they're the villain or the hero, usually get theirs in the end. Not Bendy though, hell I wanted them to bring him back just so he can pay for his actions.
I despised this episode from the start. Such a HORRIBLE episode! And this is EXACTLY one of the reasons I despised it so much. "Alright! This is really stupid, but at at least they're gonna make sure Bendy is gonna get his comeuppance by the end of it." It's a rewarding feeling and it gets a huge laugh. "YEAH! He's getting punished for his actions". And then he doesn't. "... WHAT?" I... I... I mean, Blu can be mean in a few episodes, but he gets what he deserves in the end. But why does Bendy get away with this? Besides, in this episode, there was no reason for Blu to deserve this. In fact, why do ANY of the other imaginary friends deserve this? They didn't do anything wrong, and Bendy is such an unlikeable character that... GAAAH!
This is why some of spongebobs dickishness in early seasons was excusable for example in one episode (cant remember its name) spongebob and patrick went around annoying people and were punished accordingly at the end of the episode by being laughed at because they were in the nude
lewis gray Yeah, Spongebob and Patrick's actions were understandable, since their playfulness can get the better out of them. And Squidward always got what he deserved in older episodes. But it makes absolutely no sense in later episodes. Spongebob was naiive and child-like, and even when he does something stupid or wrong, it's usually due to his innocence or for wanting to do something good (like helping Squidward while he's in cast actually ends up making things worse). But in the new show Spongebob's just annoying for no reason and REALLY stupid (he's not THAT stupid!). I mean, JUST annoying! The new Spongebob show is nothing like it used to be. Except maybe for one or two episodes, like the episode where Squidward becomes handsome is a really funny episode. Everything else is just... GAAAH!
Even as a kid, I remember first watching this episode and wondering to myself. "Don't they think it's a little weird that all this nonsense started happening RIGHT as Bendy showed?"
@@okjeffy6581 Nothing wrong in terms of something bad, but wrong in terms of "He should've just kept his mouth shut instead of idiotically exposing himself and foiling his own plan." Seriously, if Bloo just said nothing at the end of this episode, it could have been salvaged.
6 Steps I would have taken to improve this episode: 1) Give Bendy an origin story and established motive; maybe the kid was a Terrance-kind-of-kid who created Bendy to have a partner-in-crime and later threw him under the bus when they were caught 2) Show him interact with the main characters before he goes on his sabotage spree 3) Have it be someone other than Wilt to back Bloo up when he confronts Bendy; like you said, he was such a nice guy that they should have believed him 4) Give Mac a larger role... have him be the one who says "We saw you knock over those flowers" and have him also get in trouble for Bendy's work. 5) Remove the intercom scene entirely... how the hell did they not recognize two very different voices? 6) Show Bendy at least get into some trouble over taking a cookie
Rafael Johnson Busted was one of the first episodes in production after the pilot. when i say early on i mean REALLY early on. the ep you're talking about was around mid-season 2.
Writing Tip: When writing an episode revolving around characters getting punished for false reasons you MUST show them proving their innocence, have them unpunished, and have the character who actually did it get punished.
Wanna know the irony of it all? They came close to abiding by that rule...Until Bloo admitted to framing Bendy...If Bloo had nothing to do with it, then this would've been, at least, an okay episode.
+Adrian Beaky Most likely for the sense of balance. The torment that Bloo and the others recieved from someone they never met was just sad, Frankie and Herriman were unbearable in this episode for how easily played they were by Bendy, which made Bendy as a whole, all the more hateable. And when the main protagonists recieve torment from some character of the day for no reason, with their own friends, who should sooner believe the protagonists in question before ever believing someone they just met, siding with that character throughout the entire time, literally from beginning to end, it could come off as a pretty irritating episode. This one, for multiple reasons.
+Adrian Beaky Well no, it's not a rule. That said, an unresolved conflict could do more harm to a story than good. And while Foster's CAN get away with doing that, this is the one episode where it was more of a mistake to not resolve the conflict between Bendy and Bloo. Especially with Bendy's smug grin at the end.
Bendy was such an annoying, crybaby, karma-houdini. This definetly is one of the worst Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends episodes out there. I'm quite honestly glad Bendy never came back after this one.
Not to mention if I saw Bendy and he framed me for something I didn't do I would've beaten him up for that. Not to mention Frankie and Herriman would refuse to believe me and that's when I rage at them for taking Bendy's side over me in which i swear at them so bad they get furious at me. But instead of putting me in the room where they sent Bloo and them in the cornor they would throw me out of the house.
LittleJerryFan92 I mean every hero needs a villain. Least they delivered the villain quite well in that Bendy is most hated to the point where the Voice Actor is disgusted by it. But overall it feels like a bad episode because there are no justice and the idiocy of the adults.
I'd have liked perhaps a follow up episode where we looked at the wonky psychology of the kid that made Bendy.... That would make it allll worth while fer me.
Bloo is kind of an asshole, i could totally see him blaming someone else for something. (Recall one of the first episodes where they try to get a birthday gift for Foster.) .........Wilt and even Eduardo on the Other hand are incredibly trustworthy, so there's no excuse there.
Faust herself admitted that she regrets writing the episode after the negative response. I know how she feels, making something, then regretting making it later. Naughty Bendy! He's the complete opposite of me. He makes trouble, gets away with it. I make a little slip up, I apologize like crazy for it.
I know how that feels. A friend of my friend purposely broke an automated gate at school which prompted the cops to come up. I was scared as hell thinking I was gonna get in trouble for something I didn't do. Well I witness the thing breaking and never tried to stop it. I was ready to get down on my knees and beg the cops to not send me to juvenile detention because I know I will not survive there and my good reputation for being the good kid. Luckily they weren't focused on me than the other guy. I spent the whole afternoon thinking the cops will knock on my door and talk about me to my mom.
"Why is Bendy being so cruel to people he doesn't even know?" I've known a few Bendy's in my time, and their reasoning usually is...because they can. Bendy is the definition of a sadistic narcissist - he loves hurting people, just like he loves the feeling of power he gets when manipulating others into taking his side when the time comes for consequences. If he can pin the crime on someone else and ruin their day (or life), too, then so much the better. Once they get past a certain age, people like him are usually too far gone; there's not a punishment bad enough to keep them from doing what they do. Your only option is to either kill them or just stay away.
***** A good or decent writer says 'Yeah, I Screwed Up' when a bad ep comes up. A bad one just doubles down and even plots to re-use some critted elements in future eps as a middle finger to the audience.
Here's my rough draft on how I would improve this episode: First, get Wilt out of the way. Like Enter said, Wilt is such a nice guy they should have believed him. I'd have the episode begin with Frankie sending Wilt on an errand. He's walking out as Bendy's family is walking in. I'd remove the video game scene and replace it with Bloo and Mac throwing a football or something around in that room. Mr. Herriman scolds them about possibly breaking something. When Mr. Herriman comes in a second time, the vase is broken, but we don't see how, leaving room for Bendy's possible innocence. Bloo and Mac blame Bendy, but when Bendy comes in he says he was setting up his room (no obnoxious crying or grin) which gives him a fairly solid alibi. I'd also change it to where Bendy is specifically targeting Bloo and Mac. At one point Mac demands to know why Bendy is behaving this way, and Bendy gives an origin story where his creator was a trouble maker who threw him under the bus when they were caught. Mac can relate to this because Bendy's creator is similar to his brother Terrance. Mac explains this and they have a brief friendship by pranking Terrance, but Bendy eventually turns on them because he feels he can't trust anyone. I would remove the intercom scene entirely. How could Frankie/Mr. Herriman not have recognized two very different voices? Wilt is arriving back from his errand when he sees Bendy do something through a window, and he begins following him around to investigate further, and he sees Bendy do at least one other heinous act. I would keep the cookie jar scene pretty much the same, but after Bloo gets in trouble for flooding the house, Wilt shows up and testifies for Bloo that he saw Bendy in action. Here, they believe Wilt, and Bendy gets in at least some trouble. Does that sound like an improvement?
Sounds good but the ending scene is all that needed to be improved. After Bendy comes out, he get scolded and kicked out. Then Frankie and Herriman apologies to the gang, and then Bloo revealed his plan which gets him scolded. The episode ends like the original but at least Bendy got what he deserved.
The logic on this episode always left me confused: 1) How did Frankie and Mr. Bunny didn't suspect Bendy when in the beginning the others didn't even knew about Bendy and his antics in the first place? 2) I thought there were two Bendys on a Jekyll-Hyde kind of thing, because I never noticed his grin, no seriously, I really thought that. 3) It is a big mansion with hundreds of Imaginary Friends running around, yet the rooms are always empty until the one framed comes in the picture and Frankie with Mr. Bunny shortly after for no reason. 4) Why didn't the main duo realized something off happening the mansion AFTER Bendy arrived, because even if those things happened in a regular basis, why didn't they never suspected Bendy who was always around?
If bendy was talkin over the intercom wouldn't they know it's him everyone in this episode has their own unique voice so wouldn't the two know it's Bendy?
Sarah if bendy ever blamed something on me and got away with it. next time he does it i'll kick his ass no your not pulling that shit on me again you little trouble maker. i dont care if i ge t in trouble by herriman after, he'll learn not to piss me off by framing me would you blame me or would you do the same?
MrBrandonStar Let me count the ways: 1. He was selfish beyond belief. 2. He would often take advantage of his friends' kindness. 3. He never seemed to understand or care about the magnitude of his own actions. 4. He was annoying. 5. He had an attitude, a HUGE attitude. The list could go on, but I don't want to take up too much of your time.
Shwah Gamer And the sad part is, he was actually kinda likeable in the feature length pilot and maybe the first episode. And then the writers thought he didn't have enough personality and made him a complete douche!
I don't like that point that "Bloo wouldn't blame anyone for no reason,". I'm not saying that its fine, just saying, something else seems wrong with that scene, like the fact that Bloo just described Bendy with impeccable detail, even though Bendy claims to not be in that room, it doesn't matter what Bendy says, that accusation holds water, because Bloo's description of Bendy was perfect, how could he make up a crazy description of someone that fast? Were the rest of the episodes of this show like this?
***** Yes they would. They like Bloo. But in the same way you like your Roomate you are force with. Will is literally unable to lie. Coco,more or less gives zero fucks. And Ed, Ed would crack under the pressure and rat him out If he did something.
I have to point out Bloo WOULD blame someone for no real reason, if HE did it. He's done that several times, so it would be understandable to be skeptical of him, since he's known to lie to get out of trouble. Of course that logic only works until Wilt, who would be more likely to take the blame for something someone else did than blame anyone for something they didn't do, backs Bloo up.
I get bloo but Wilt and the others getting punished makes this concept hard to swallow. Wilt went through a whole episode about being to nice and Ed is to soft spoken and kind to do that. Also Frankie(sp) is the one who was the level headed one. Normally you would think she would catch on even if she was fooled in the beginning.
TheMaleAvenger I agree. Let's face it Bloo kind of kept getting him self into trouble in this episode by not using common sense. I'd think removing Frankie from the plot and make it so everyone thinks it's Bloo doing it out of maybe jealousy because Wilt and the others liked him. It would have not been a stretch since Bloo honestly causes trouble anyway and is kind of petty. It's not the best but at least everyone could stay in character.
Lauren's exact words on this episode: "I wrote a dud". Damn, I sure feel bad about the backlash this one earned her at the time, but at least she very quickly made up for the whole thing. Lauren Faust is a great writer and a great animator, and she will always have my respect for all the heart and imagination she puts into her work. :)
Yeah, he needs to just keep a level head when going into something rather than just yelling at what he thinks is crap. He's just become, like I said, more salty as he's reviewed.
I watched this episode as a kid, and even though I did not consider it to be that horrible, I agree with you that it was pointless because Bendy was never seen again and Frankie and Mr. Herriman believed Bendy even though nobody besides them was on his side, not even his family.
The fact that they never believed Wilt is what bothered me. I understand them not believing Bloo, but they know Wilt and should know that he is one of the most honest people ever. I just never got over that and probably never will
What they should have done, was have Bloo play some sort of prank on Bendy, because he's new. Then Wilt rats Bloo out, and Bloo is punished. This gives Bendy a reason to blame Bloo for his actions, gives Frankie a reason to think Bloo is trying to frame Bendy, and also gives Frankie a reason to not believe Wilt; she thinks he's trying to protect Bloo to apologize for ratting him out earlier.
How can Frankie not believe Wilt that Bendy did it and not him? He is the most honest cartoon character I know and he never tell one lie throughout all 79 episodes.
The ep. should have had Bendy actually miss his friend. He could say that he felt abandoned and betrayed. Bloo befriends and empathizes with Bendy remembering how he felt when he was being sent to Foster's. He eventually promises Bendy to have the same set up that him and Mac has. When they do arrive to the house the next day they see Bendy's creator already imagined another friend leaving Bendy heartbroken that he could have been so easily replaced. Bloo doesn't know how to deal with it because he still has Mac in his life. So he turns to his friends for help. They could have somehow let Bendy know that everything will be okay and not worry about anything. Or if they still wanted to be a d*ck, Bendy wasn't being falsely accused but everyone in the house sympathizes with him. Small silly pranks have been happening around the house and everyone blames Bloo for them. A huge prank happens and Mac can vouch that it wasn't Bloo, Frankie and Mr. Harriman believes he's covering for Bloo. It turns into a mystery of who's pulling the pranks, revealing it's Bendy. Bendy is sent to his room and Bloo is let off the hook. Everyone apologizes for falsely accusing Bloo. It could on a funny, cliche note of Frankie joking they should have known because Bloo isn't smart enough to pull a prank like that. Bloo accidentally agrees before shouting out hey.
It also makes me wonder why the kid thought Bendy up in the first place. Is the kid a psychopath? Did he think Bendy up on accident, during a dream, during a nightmare? Was Bendy nice to the kid and not everyone else?
I know right and I had the same thought about wilt being more trusted. And it's nice seeing more people like me. People who hate going outside and would rather play video games all day and sleep all night. Oh just me plz like if u cry every time
Well, this is just a couple theories but… All imaginary friends are made by a child right? Right. So there is the idea that Bendy’s creator was going through a rebellious phase and made Bendy to cause mischief in his creator’s house. If Bendy’s creator did make him for that reason then he would have every reason to feel guilty that someone who was made to be a troublemaker ends up abandoned. Another idea that I had was that maybe Bendy’s creator was bullied, but every time he tried to retaliate he would get in trouble. So he made Bendy just to protect him and pick on other people and get them in trouble much like he did so he could feel a sense of revenge and satisfaction from the punishments dished out at the bullies. But eventually Bendy goes too far resulting in his creator getting suspended/expelled and his parents getting a phone call, His parents decided to get rid of Bendy and the rest is history. Now these are just theories and I’m not claiming them to be true in any way.
I watched this episode as a kid and even then i remember being so annoyed with Bloo falling into those obvious traps. Also I can understand Frankie and Mr. Herriman thinking Bloo did all those things, he has been known to cause trouble, but Wilt??!!! and yes you make a very good point about how Wilt never lies and yet they believe Bendy over him.
+fritz philogene that made literally no sense and don't bring undertale into this because it has a fanbase shittier than the poop i took on your doorstep
3:14 - IDK if you know this by now, MrEnter, but I heard that this episode was supposed to be the full running time of 2 episodes. However the network didn't want the episode to be that long so there's a good chance there's scenes missing that would have made this episode far less obnoxious. Lauren clearly made some mistakes in this episode but I don't think all of it can be blamed on her.
Growing up I was traumatized by the live-action Grinch movie and thus developed a phobia of all Dr Seuss artwork. I actually loved this episode for taking his famous style and making a villain with it, it was like clarity; for the first time someone besides me was acknowledging the fact that Dr Seuss drawings are scary
Better way this could have been, instead of showing bendy doing all the problems, have them happen without us knowing who it is, and then we would ourselves question if Bendy is innocent or if he realy is a bad friend.
The question is: why would Bendy's Creator imagine something like him? As in, why would he imagine an imaginary friend that lies, is a tattle-tale, and is a suck-up?
Perhaps there is some legitimacy to the beginning with Bendy's creator looking guilty. Since Bendy is the product of his imagination, maybe the kid created him to take the fall for everything he did, and Bendy is bitter over it. Probably reading too far into it, still pretty bad episode for Foster's Home.
I thought it looked more like a look of shame or disappointment. Here he made an imaginary friend, that upset his parents so much. It's like the kid wished Bendy didn't have to go, but Bendy did cause a lot of damage at their house, and upset his parents.
I thought the most hated episode was "Mac Daddy" when Cheese was introduced. Even the writers said creating Cheese was a mistake because he is THE most annoying character in Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends.
Lauren Faust said it was this episode along with the Fem Fatal episode of The Power Puff Girls that she regrets writing the most. but I personally thought that episode was actually done pretty well. and was great at showing real equality! I don't know if I'm alone on that, anyone?
Oh, I wasn't really bothered by that Femme Fatale episode, plus, that episode does speak certain facts at least, for reminding that there still is justice for both gender, even if it's small or not seen so often, which I respect. It's the "Sweet N Sour" episode from powerpuff girls that bothers me.
On the subject of Foster's, you should totally review "When There's a Wilt, There's a Way". It's literally a torture porn for the most likeable character on the snow!
You know what would probably make this episode better? Two words: Madame Foster. She's never seen, or even mentioned in this episode, but hear me out when I say she'd probably fix every problem here. For one, she could probably just see Bendy herself, and side with Bloo and the others on it (and she's kind of cool like that). As a bonus, Herriman and Frankie would believe her because as the person who founded the house, they both know she wouldn't lie about this sort of thing. I'm a little tempted as to question whether or not she'd blame Bendy, though. She's definitely empathetic towards others more often than not, but if she's running a house with too many imaginary friends to count, she's probably seen a fair share of sob-stories anyway, and would interrogate Bendy a little as a result. BTW, you're pretty much speaking for all of us in the fandom in saying that Lauren Faust did an amazing job at fixing a show like MLP. Look up the term "Miracle Worker" in the dictionary, her face and birthdate are gonna be on there!
I remember, when I was a little kid and I watched this episode, I was getting all sweaty and worked up over how ridiculous it was. I HATED this episode. It was almost traumatic.
uncut (it WAS slashed to ribbons after she wrote it) it would probably have been a little bit better of an episode. the biggest missing link was the actual origin of Bendy and why he was a jerk, which was cut.
jairom1242 The problem is that entire episode is essentially a "Frankie Torture Porn" ala Squidward in new Spongebob. Whether or not she wins or makes up, the entire thing was incredibly mean-spirited to her.
Deal with an Ink Demon or a deformed yellow grinch? I choose Ink Demon, at least I like him, the other one makes me want to bash the deformed Electabuzz into a wall.
You what to know what else really pisses me off about this episode? Its sister episode, “Where There’s a Wilt, There’s a Way”, is all about Wilt being a total doormat and everyone trampling all over him. If that one had been a double-length, with the second half being about Wilt being more assertive and standing up for himself, that would have worked. Instead, it’s cut to the first half (Heck, less than the first half) to make space for this disaster.
K1naku5ana3R1ka Unpopular opinion, I think Where There's a Wilt, There's a Way is the worse of the two. It's a pure Wilt torture. If they'd both been full-length episodes, I think they both could have worked
K1naku5ana3R1ka Here's my rough draft: First, get Wilt out of the way. Like Enter said, Wilt is such a nice guy they should have believed him. I'd have the episode begin with Frankie sending Wilt on an errand. He's walking out as Bendy's family is walking in. I'd remove the video game scene and replace it with Bloo and Mac throwing a football or something around. Mr. Herriman scolds them about possibly breaking something.

Here, they believe Wilt, and Bendy gets in at least some trouble.
James EE Way better. Doesn’t flush the potential ambiguity down the toilet, or require the whole cast to act like idiots, and Bendy could definitely be way more tolerable.
Bendy could have asked to play then cheated, or made the controller gross, or use the last life in the level and then ditch the others, or low-key trash talk or SOMETHING. A slower burn and gradual build up to being sick of Bendy’s small but common traits could be fodder for a good moral lesson! But NOOOO
You know what would have fixed all of this episode's problems? If the others weren't involved with Bendy. Just Blue being alone each time he's set up. Also, it would probably help if Blue tried to blame Bendy for something first, Bendy gets away by throwing up a sad face, and THEN he starts framing Blue like an a**hat!
If Faust regretted writing this episode (that is overhated at this point), I wonder if she regrets writing these atrocities (which are worthy of becoming future Animated Atrocities): Frankie My Dear, Mac Daddy and Crime After Crime? Which are all worse than Everyone Knows it's Bendy by a very long shot.
As bad as this episode is, I think Foster's Goes to Europe is just as bad, if not worse. Mac gets treated like complete shit in that episode for no good reason whatsoever, there's some incredibly out-of-character moments from most of the cast, Eurotrish is an incredibly annoying character, and Madame Foster not only acts horribly out-of-character, but gets away with letting Mac take the blame for her actions with no consequences whatsoever.
. . . . I don't get exactly what's wrong with this episode. When I saw it I thought it was totally fine. I got why Bendy was being so cruel . . because he was wrongly accused of causing trouble in his own house because his kid creator used him as a scapegoat for his antics. This gave Bendy the impression that he can do whatever he wants whenever he wants as long as he plays the victim. This is understandable amongst children . . . the audience this show is targeted for. Kids do terrible things and then blame it on other people all the time, it's a power they become obsessed with when they discover how to lie. It doesn't matter that he's being so cruel to people he's never met, what matters is that he was heartbroken by his creators betrayal and decided to take the wrong lesson from it. As for Bloo blaming somebody he's never met for something that happened . . . that DOES seem in character for him seeing as he's the one causing shenanigans on the Foster's home ALL THE TIME and so naturally he's the first person to blame whenever something goes wrong. He'll shift blame whenever it's convenient for him, especially when he's not the one who actually did anything. And the way this plot progresses, through Bloo constantly falling for traps to become the scapegoat, I thought was fine because Bloo has been constantly portrayed to be dull-witted and often very gullible. In fact, Bloo is the perfect foil for this kind of episode because this episode plays towards his weaknesses as a character. He's often selfish and douchey, thus people shift blame on him, and he's kind of an idiot, thus he always falls into traps. And the ending to this episode I thought was a great punchline, Bloo went through this terribly elaborate scheme to catch Bendy in the act only to cause a much greater atrocity. This is a great lesson portrayed funny: doing terrible things only builds up to something worse happening in the end, and so you should take the high road and be considerate and well meaning towards people because lies don't last forever and revenge only makes you just as bad as your opposition. Soo . . .I don't get what's wrong here.
+TomboTime Bendy was never wrongly accused. he actually did all those things on his house. that's why he makes that evil smile when he does those things. the reason people don't like this episode is the fact that Bendy never got what he deserved. he was an asshole to everybody but nothing bad happens to him when I saw it as a child I was really pissed
+keny 19 You misunderstood what I meant by what I said. When I said Bendy was wrongly accused of doing things in his own house . . . I was referring to the house he lived in BEFORE Foster's with his creator child. The whole reason he shows up to Fosters in the first place is because the kids parents think he's a bad influence on their son and they refuse to acknowledge the possibility that their son may have caused the destruction instead. When they walk away, you catch a glimpse of sadness on the boys face, implying that he probably DID do the bad things and blame it on his imaginary friend. It would make sense for Bendy to derive from a personality like that, and that's the lesson he takes from it. And I wouldn't say Bendy never got what he deserved. He got the shear embarrassment of what happened to him in the ending. Bloo just got what he deserved to, I.E. punishment for flooding the whole house. This once again reasserts the lesson that people should get punished for doing bad things, but not by having you do to them what they did to you, as revenge only makes you just as bad as them.
+TomboTime I think the real problem is that the episode just doesn't really convey any of this well enough. Too much time is spent on Bendy being an ass hat and getting away with it. And honestly, his little embarrassment at the pretty much pales in comparison to what he did to the others. Whether or not the kid was doing all those things before Bendy came to Foster's is irrelevant because Bendy is still an ass hat that doesn't really get in trouble for anything he's done. I mean if I remember right, Lauren herself said that this episode was a huge mistake sooo...
This is all correct and stuff. However the problem is that Edwardo and Wilt were dragged into this. The fact that these two were blamed and stuff basically ruined the episode.
I remember watching this episode when I was younger, and not minding all that much. To me, any episode with Cheese in it was a bad episode. Everything else was fine, to me. But looking at it now, I see that it actually could have been salvageable, had it been approached slightly differently. A slight change, I think, is all that it needed. It should have been broken up into a two-parter, or something similar, with Part One leading up to Bendy's acts of cruelty and making the viewers feel a little more sympathetic and conflicted in regards to his behavior. Showing more of him acting innocent and trying to win everyone over would have been a great way to do that. Then, perhaps halfway through Part One, he throws away his act around the other Imaginary Friends, and starts causing trouble. This would have greatly increased the shock value, and made viewers more dedicated to seeing him learn a lesson. Part Two could have slipped in a couple flashbacks or exposition about WHY Bendy is the way he is. Obviously, the kid he belonged to made him that way, so why? What situation would arise that would make such an innocent-looking child want such a destructive and abusive friend? It could have given more room for the resolution as well, having Bendy get caught, AND showing us his punishment, and perhaps helping him learn a lesson... or showing the characters and audience that he wouldn't change even if he got caught.
Now that I think about it, I think Bendy DID do the things the parents accused him of doing. He is that kids imaginary friend, and the kid also looked hella guilty.
That episode where Bloo gets beat up by that back ally thug and thrown in a dumpster was a HORRIBLE episode and so was Bye Bye Nerdy. I just fucking hate it when bullies and thugs never get their comeuppances. That shit should be illegal just like pedophilia when it comes to films and TV shows. If you're gonna show a bully or thug, at least give him his proper comeuppance or don't even fucking bother, you hear that Hollywood?! Stop sending the wrong messages when it comes to topics such as bullying. I mean the whole "karma-houdini" is one of the worst tropes next to "It was all just a dream" bar-none! And speaking of bullies and thugs; Mac's older bullying brother Terrance looks like that convict from the beginning of every Superjail episode!
This episode really could’ve benefitted from some extra runtime. Like you said it should’ve been a 22 minute episode. Add some scenes of Bendy growing resentment towards the group to make his behavior more understandable. Or even better they could’ve kept the ambiguity going by having a bunch of stuff break and nobody sees him doing it. It could’ve been a great mystery episode.
Also, while yes, I agree that this episode stunk, it taught us a lesson about revenge. Sometimes jerks get away with shit and the more you try to get back at them, the worse it makes you look. Sometimes its best just to forget about assholes and, eventually, they might just be gone from our lives for good (Like Bendy was). Screw Bendy. He got away with crap. He is not on the show anymore. He is GONE.
Like, the thing is though, I really appreciated that this episode portrayed the common problem children face when there's a good noodle and a bad egg; the bad kid does something mischievous, then frames the innocent kid but because the adult/babysitter didn't see it happen (or is too lazy to try to bring real justice) the bad kid gets away with it and the good kid is blamed, with the good kid feeling the judgement was extremely unfair. What I don't like about this episode though, is that its final resolution was revenge, not actually being nice or friendly to Bendy. I feel like maybe his problem was that he really had no friends. Sure, he sucked up to Frankie and Herriman, but other than that they personally weren't friends with him. Even his own kid abandoned him. Which, (here's just a theory of mine), what if the kid HAD blamed Bendy? I know, it's very unlikely, but think about it: because his creator could use him as a scapegoat but after so much trouble he realized it was either going to ultimately be him in trouble or Bendy, so instead of finally taking the blame as a step of growing up, he disowned his imaginary friend. Heartbroken and confused as seen in the episode, Bendy feels distraught. But, once he comes to the realization he has a completely clean slate at Foster's, he realizes he can do what his kid did to him. And so the victim becomes the bully. The reason why the episode ends the way it does is because Bloo chose to fight fire with fire, thus resulting in the house being destroyed and Bendy not learning anything because when Bloo out-pranked Bendy, it only showed Bendy that he needed to be the one on top and to crank up his jerk-ness to an 11. That's how I see it, and it's how I cope with it.
Strange fact: This episode happens to be paired with another detested episode : "Where There's A Wilt, There's a Way". Both have bizarre runtimes. "There's A Wilt" honestly could've worked if its pacing wasn't so slow (despite being around 8 or so minutes) and not as excessive towards Wilt to deliver a ham fisted "just say no" Aesop.
Even as a kid, I always wanted Bendy to get punished for all of the Hell he put everyone through. I would've loved this as the ending: Frankie and Harriman are about to reward Bendy for doing something he took credit for, but then, every single person in the house, maybe even including Madame Foster, tell them about everything Bendy did, and this would finally make Frankie and Harriman realize what Bloo and the others said was true, and so Bendy finally gets punished for all of the terrible things he did.
Or even better: An anvil falls on Bendy's head, then he falls on a sewer, then the hospital charges him 100 million dollars and he suffers a heart attack right then and there and dies
***** Are you sure, Craig Lewis wright Adoptocalypse Now, Partying Is Such Sweet Soiree, Berry Scary (With Megan McCarthy), & The Trouble With Scribbles, not Lauren Faust.
Even good writers are human. They can't always crank out one masterpiece after another and they shouldn't be expected to, either. I can't imagine the pressure and anxiety of having to come up with something perfect every time because my audience will think my brain was taken over by space aliens if I don't.
Writer's thought Process - "Hmm... Lets have Bloo, Coco, Wilt, and Eduardo playing games, then Bendy comes and knocks over a flower pot and then run out to get Frankie and Harriman." "Yeah, then what?" "They get blamed for knocking over the flower pot." "And then...?" "Bloo tries saying it was Bendy, and none of them. And after Frankie and Harriman don't believe him, Wilt tries confirming it, but they still don't believe them." "Wait, why don't they beleieve Wilt?" "Because Bendy cries." "Ahhhhh, ok. Sounds good, sounds good."
I never saw this episode as a kid and tbh i'm super glad i didnt. they should've just ended the episode when bloo caught bendy in the act and frankie and mr. herriman apologized to bloo and the main characters. I agree that it would've made the episode a lot more decent. P.S this show is my childhood.
I have a good suggestion for Animated Atrocities: 'Depth Takes a Holiday' and The musical episode from Daria. Another great show from beginning to end, except for those two episodes. Daria actually has a lot of episodes that are decent candidates for Admirable Animations too. Episodes like: Monster, Boxing Daria, Arts & Crass, The Esteemers etc.
oh man i remember the first time i saw this episode, bendy pissed me off so damn much. everytime he had that grin on his face i wanted to smack that grin right off his smug face
Bendy is one of those people who likes to play the victim and tends to manipulate others into thinking they are nice but in reality they are troublesome.
First of all, thank you SO MUCH for doing this. I always HATED that episode. I never liked it when a character would do something wrong and not get any repercussions or somebody else got blamed for it or both. That being said I have one question...how in the HELL did Bendy know how to spell Bloo's name right!? He only ever heard it spoken, so by that logic he should of spelled it like the color blue, thus being an indication that Bloo himself didn't write it. Bloo is short for Blooregard, Bloo's full name being Blooregard Q. Kazoo. How could Bendy POSSIBLY know to use that particular spelling?

I think I get what Lauren was going for. It's based on those kids who do bad things and then blame it on an imaginary character. There really are children who do that sort of thing but in this show imaginary characters become real. That kid must be a real sociopath to create someone so pointlessly cruel. This might have been a better episode if handled differently. Who knows?
Actually in this world it seems like Imaginary Friends have somewhat the opposite personality of their creators, like Mac & Bloo
***** It won't as it sucks. I saw some of it, and found it terrible.
***** Why I thought it sucked. Nothing about it is original at all. It's very cliched, predictable, and milches off of the success of other shows.
***** Star is just the same character as Mabel Pines. Well people behind Star vs The Forces of Evil,if I wanted to see Mabel Pines, I'd watch Gravity Falls. Sorry I'm not interested.
***** IDW has a comic that's all episodes that never made it past the scripting.
At least Lauren Faust had the decency to apologize for writing this atrocity.
Kind of like when Schumacher apologized for Batman and Robin.
Yet she never apologized for her involvement in Seasons 5 & 6 of PPG?
@Casey Pace Part of the reason she wrote so man episodes is because she's creator Craig McCracken's wife and kind of partner in crime.
@Al X. Andra Or Mike and Bryan. Who still defend Korra
@Al X. Andra It's still terrible
The worst part is Bendy never gets punished for his actions, in most good cartoons when a character, whether they're the villain or the hero, usually get theirs in the end. Not Bendy though, hell I wanted them to bring him back just so he can pay for his actions.
bendy vs Bender the Offender. i am rooting for the badass robot.
I despised this episode from the start. Such a HORRIBLE episode!
And this is EXACTLY one of the reasons I despised it so much. "Alright! This is really stupid, but at at least they're gonna make sure Bendy is gonna get his comeuppance by the end of it." It's a rewarding feeling and it gets a huge laugh. "YEAH! He's getting punished for his actions". And then he doesn't. "... WHAT?" I... I... I mean, Blu can be mean in a few episodes, but he gets what he deserves in the end. But why does Bendy get away with this? Besides, in this episode, there was no reason for Blu to deserve this. In fact, why do ANY of the other imaginary friends deserve this? They didn't do anything wrong, and Bendy is such an unlikeable character that... GAAAH!
This is why some of spongebobs dickishness in early seasons was excusable for example in one episode (cant remember its name) spongebob and patrick went around annoying people and were punished accordingly at the end of the episode by being laughed at because they were in the nude
lewis gray Pranks A Lot.
lewis gray Yeah, Spongebob and Patrick's actions were understandable, since their playfulness can get the better out of them. And Squidward always got what he deserved in older episodes. But it makes absolutely no sense in later episodes. Spongebob was naiive and child-like, and even when he does something stupid or wrong, it's usually due to his innocence or for wanting to do something good (like helping Squidward while he's in cast actually ends up making things worse). But in the new show Spongebob's just annoying for no reason and REALLY stupid (he's not THAT stupid!). I mean, JUST annoying! The new Spongebob show is nothing like it used to be. Except maybe for one or two episodes, like the episode where Squidward becomes handsome is a really funny episode. Everything else is just... GAAAH!
Even as a kid, I remember first watching this episode and wondering to myself. "Don't they think it's a little weird that all this nonsense started happening RIGHT as Bendy showed?"
Yeah, that's what I never understood. Guilty or not, you'd think they'd still be a bit skeptical.
Bloo did nothing wrong in this episode. he has done bad things in other episodes, but usually he gets punished.,
@@okjeffy6581 Nothing wrong in terms of something bad, but wrong in terms of "He should've just kept his mouth shut instead of idiotically exposing himself and foiling his own plan." Seriously, if Bloo just said nothing at the end of this episode, it could have been salvaged.
I hated this episode when I was a kid, stuff like this pisses me off
you and me both man.
+Ted Owen I honestly thought that Bendy was a girl?
Kah278 your probably thinking of "Bindi", Steve Erwin's daughter.
+Ted Owen maybe. Or maybe because back then, my TV had audio problems or I had hear problems or something😕😕😕
+TheGrandRevo I'm with you brother.
6 Steps I would have taken to improve this episode:
1) Give Bendy an origin story and established motive; maybe the kid was a Terrance-kind-of-kid who created Bendy to have a partner-in-crime and later threw him under the bus when they were caught
2) Show him interact with the main characters before he goes on his sabotage spree
3) Have it be someone other than Wilt to back Bloo up when he confronts Bendy; like you said, he was such a nice guy that they should have believed him
4) Give Mac a larger role... have him be the one who says "We saw you knock over those flowers" and have him also get in trouble for Bendy's work.
5) Remove the intercom scene entirely... how the hell did they not recognize two very different voices?
6) Show Bendy at least get into some trouble over taking a cookie
How about punish bendy
i think that's what he was implying.
The show actually does kind of imply that first one imo. They just never say it outright, which sucks.
CJCroen1393
How else do you think the episode could have been improved?
And make the episode 22 minutes.
"Bloo would never blame another friend for something he did"
Wilt got blamed for so much shit Bloo used to do lol.
To be fair, Bloo was much nicer early on in the show, like in Busted when Wilt said he could take the blame and Bloo didn't want that.
That Guy Who Sleeps in the Hood of Your Car he threw chips on the ground after it tasted like shit around season 1/2 when wilt gave it to him
Rafael Johnson Busted was one of the first episodes in production after the pilot. when i say early on i mean REALLY early on. the ep you're talking about was around mid-season 2.
.🤔😑.
Writing Tip: When writing an episode revolving around characters getting punished for false reasons you MUST show them proving their innocence, have them unpunished, and have the character who actually did it get punished.
Wanna know the irony of it all? They came close to abiding by that rule...Until Bloo admitted to framing Bendy...If Bloo had nothing to do with it, then this would've been, at least, an okay episode.
+Dakota Conn Why?
+Adrian Beaky Most likely for the sense of balance. The torment that Bloo and the others recieved from someone they never met was just sad, Frankie and Herriman were unbearable in this episode for how easily played they were by Bendy, which made Bendy as a whole, all the more hateable. And when the main protagonists recieve torment from some character of the day for no reason, with their own friends, who should sooner believe the protagonists in question before ever believing someone they just met, siding with that character throughout the entire time, literally from beginning to end, it could come off as a pretty irritating episode. This one, for multiple reasons.
CtDAN1
I mean, sure, but I don't think it's a rule. You don't need to resolve conflict for a story to work.
+Adrian Beaky Well no, it's not a rule. That said, an unresolved conflict could do more harm to a story than good. And while Foster's CAN get away with doing that, this is the one episode where it was more of a mistake to not resolve the conflict between Bendy and Bloo. Especially with Bendy's smug grin at the end.
Bendy reminds me of Electabuzz
***** i know huh
***** Crossed with Woodstock from "Peanuts"...
***** More like a Dr. Seuss-esqe...
And when Bendy goes to a new kid, he changes and now looks like an Electivire, because you need to trade Electabuzz to have an Electivire$
PercyandDuckfan94 that's what I thought.
Bendy was such an annoying, crybaby, karma-houdini. This definetly is one of the worst Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends episodes out there. I'm quite honestly glad Bendy never came back after this one.
LittleJerryFan92 s
I wanna see some fanart of people beating the crap out of Bendy and get thrown in jail for extremely bad characters.
Not to mention if I saw Bendy and he framed me for something I didn't do I would've beaten him up for that. Not to mention Frankie and Herriman would refuse to believe me and that's when I rage at them for taking Bendy's side over me in which i swear at them so bad they get furious at me. But instead of putting me in the room where they sent Bloo and them in the cornor they would throw me out of the house.
LittleJerryFan92 I mean every hero needs a villain. Least they delivered the villain quite well in that Bendy is most hated to the point where the Voice Actor is disgusted by it. But overall it feels like a bad episode because there are no justice and the idiocy of the adults.
I want to stab him so badly.
I'd have liked perhaps a follow up episode where we looked at the wonky psychology of the kid that made Bendy.... That would make it allll worth while fer me.
This episode pissed me off when I watched it the first time.
Me too. Frickin bendy
I can't stress how much I hated seeing that episode.
Same Shaun N Ince, same.
Same.
Shaun N Ince me too. And, I hated this episode, when bendy tricks on bloo and his friends for accusing them.
I had forgotten this shitty episode. Now it has come back full force.
Fresca/Clubman8 yo fresca my dude
So has my utter hatred for this episode
Fresca/Clubman8 I don’t like this episode.
Bloo is kind of an asshole, i could totally see him blaming someone else for something. (Recall one of the first episodes where they try to get a birthday gift for Foster.)
.........Wilt and even Eduardo on the Other hand are incredibly trustworthy, so there's no excuse there.
I don't believe would ever blame anyone.
Yes he would. In the episode "Beat With a Schtick", he said to Mr. Herriman that he framed someone for his actions before.
ShadowWolfRising
He wasn't that big of an asshole in the early episodes. He turned into a full on jerkass starting with season 2.
Faust herself admitted that she regrets writing the episode after the negative response. I know how she feels, making something, then regretting making it later. Naughty Bendy! He's the complete opposite of me. He makes trouble, gets away with it. I make a little slip up, I apologize like crazy for it.
I know how that feels. A friend of my friend purposely broke an automated gate at school which prompted the cops to come up. I was scared as hell thinking I was gonna get in trouble for something I didn't do. Well I witness the thing breaking and never tried to stop it. I was ready to get down on my knees and beg the cops to not send me to juvenile detention because I know I will not survive there and my good reputation for being the good kid. Luckily they weren't focused on me than the other guy. I spent the whole afternoon thinking the cops will knock on my door and talk about me to my mom.
Oh my god. I'm sorry about to hear about that!
TotallyLisaCartoons It is okay we just got a warning.
*hugs you*
TotallyLisaCartoons thanks (hugs back)
"Why is Bendy being so cruel to people he doesn't even know?"
I've known a few Bendy's in my time, and their reasoning usually is...because they can. Bendy is the definition of a sadistic narcissist - he loves hurting people, just like he loves the feeling of power he gets when manipulating others into taking his side when the time comes for consequences. If he can pin the crime on someone else and ruin their day (or life), too, then so much the better. Once they get past a certain age, people like him are usually too far gone; there's not a punishment bad enough to keep them from doing what they do. Your only option is to either kill them or just stay away.
+Jasmine Lav. Oh man, it would've been so kick ass if at the end of this episode Bloo just Izuna Dropped Bendy and snapped his neck on the floor.
I hate "Everyone Knows Is Bendy" Even Lauren Frost hated to write the episode...That's pretty sad for an episode
*****
A good or decent writer says 'Yeah, I Screwed Up' when a bad ep comes up. A bad one just doubles down and even plots to re-use some critted elements in future eps as a middle finger to the audience.
100th like
It's just like Butch Hartman regretting making the fairly OddParents episode "it's A wishful Life"
Here's my rough draft on how I would improve this episode:
First, get Wilt out of the way. Like Enter said, Wilt is such a nice guy they should have believed him.
I'd have the episode begin with Frankie sending Wilt on an errand. He's walking out as Bendy's family is walking in.
I'd remove the video game scene and replace it with Bloo and Mac throwing a football or something around in that room. Mr. Herriman scolds them about possibly breaking something.
When Mr. Herriman comes in a second time, the vase is broken, but we don't see how, leaving room for Bendy's possible innocence. Bloo and Mac blame Bendy, but when Bendy comes in he says he was setting up his room (no obnoxious crying or grin) which gives him a fairly solid alibi.
I'd also change it to where Bendy is specifically targeting Bloo and Mac. At one point Mac demands to know why Bendy is behaving this way, and Bendy gives an origin story where his creator was a trouble maker who threw him under the bus when they were caught. Mac can relate to this because Bendy's creator is similar to his brother Terrance. Mac explains this and they have a brief friendship by pranking Terrance, but Bendy eventually turns on them because he feels he can't trust anyone.
I would remove the intercom scene entirely. How could Frankie/Mr. Herriman not have recognized two very different voices?
Wilt is arriving back from his errand when he sees Bendy do something through a window, and he begins following him around to investigate further, and he sees Bendy do at least one other heinous act.
I would keep the cookie jar scene pretty much the same, but after Bloo gets in trouble for flooding the house, Wilt shows up and testifies for Bloo that he saw Bendy in action. Here, they believe Wilt, and Bendy gets in at least some trouble.
Does that sound like an improvement?
ye
James EE yes
Sounds good but the ending scene is all that needed to be improved. After Bendy comes out, he get scolded and kicked out. Then Frankie and Herriman apologies to the gang, and then Bloo revealed his plan which gets him scolded. The episode ends like the original but at least Bendy got what he deserved.
A major one
@@mobiusraptor7Better Idea: Bloo Doesn’t Reveal His Plan At All (unless you wanna do it in a humorous way)
The logic on this episode always left me confused:
1) How did Frankie and Mr. Bunny didn't suspect Bendy when in the beginning the others didn't even knew about Bendy and his antics in the first place?
2) I thought there were two Bendys on a Jekyll-Hyde kind of thing, because I never noticed his grin, no seriously, I really thought that.
3) It is a big mansion with hundreds of Imaginary Friends running around, yet the rooms are always empty until the one framed comes in the picture and Frankie with Mr. Bunny shortly after for no reason.
4) Why didn't the main duo realized something off happening the mansion AFTER Bendy arrived, because even if those things happened in a regular basis, why didn't they never suspected Bendy who was always around?
If bendy was talkin over the intercom wouldn't they know it's him everyone in this episode has their own unique voice so wouldn't the two know it's Bendy?
Yeah they would
I never could figure that out myself
Sarah if bendy ever blamed something on me and got away with it. next time he does it i'll kick his ass no your not pulling that shit on me again you little trouble maker. i dont care if i ge t in trouble by herriman after, he'll learn not to piss me off by framing me
would you blame me or would you do the same?
@@AxlTheScourge I would do the same
bendy is the most unlikable character on the show. I'm glad that he never show up in any other episodes
I would have to disagree. He may be the worst one-shot character, but Bloo was the worst main character on the show by far.
SakuraUchiha1000 how
MrBrandonStar Let me count the ways:
1. He was selfish beyond belief.
2. He would often take advantage of his friends' kindness.
3. He never seemed to understand or care about the magnitude of his own actions.
4. He was annoying.
5. He had an attitude, a HUGE attitude.
The list could go on, but I don't want to take up too much of your time.
SakuraUchiha1000 wow so bloo is unlikable
Shwah Gamer And the sad part is, he was actually kinda likeable in the feature length pilot and maybe the first episode. And then the writers thought he didn't have enough personality and made him a complete douche!
I don't like that point that "Bloo wouldn't blame anyone for no reason,".
I'm not saying that its fine, just saying, something else seems wrong with that scene, like the fact that Bloo just described Bendy with impeccable detail, even though Bendy claims to not be in that room, it doesn't matter what Bendy says, that accusation holds water, because Bloo's description of Bendy was perfect, how could he make up a crazy description of someone that fast?
Were the rest of the episodes of this show like this?
Even more to the point, Bloo's smart enough to know not to try that lie when he has 3 witnesses that WOULD rat him out for that.
***** Yes they would. They like Bloo. But in the same way you like your Roomate you are force with.
Will is literally unable to lie.
Coco,more or less gives zero fucks.
And Ed, Ed would crack under the pressure and rat him out If he did something.
Carzeyday The "No they were not" seemed more in reaction to the question of "were the other episodes like this" asked by the original comment.
I have to point out Bloo WOULD blame someone for no real reason, if HE did it. He's done that several times, so it would be understandable to be skeptical of him, since he's known to lie to get out of trouble. Of course that logic only works until Wilt, who would be more likely to take the blame for something someone else did than blame anyone for something they didn't do, backs Bloo up.
...and STILL gets punished.
I get bloo but Wilt and the others getting punished makes this concept hard to swallow. Wilt went through a whole episode about being to nice and Ed is to soft spoken and kind to do that. Also Frankie(sp) is the one who was the level headed one. Normally you would think she would catch on even if she was fooled in the beginning.
***** The writers should have just limited Bendy's scapegoat to Bloo. I doubt anyone would have complained about that.
TheMaleAvenger I agree. Let's face it Bloo kind of kept getting him self into trouble in this episode by not using common sense.
I'd think removing Frankie from the plot and make it so everyone thinks it's Bloo doing it out of maybe jealousy because Wilt and the others liked him. It would have not been a stretch since Bloo honestly causes trouble anyway and is kind of petty. It's not the best but at least everyone could stay in character.
***** That would have worked.
Lauren's exact words on this episode: "I wrote a dud". Damn, I sure feel bad about the backlash this one earned her at the time, but at least she very quickly made up for the whole thing. Lauren Faust is a great writer and a great animator, and she will always have my respect for all the heart and imagination she puts into her work. :)
He's definitely become more salty over the last 2 years.
+Scsigs Don't be too hard on Mr. Enter. He just needs some guidance in his life, and to know the total truth.
I wouldn't consider that "too hard." Also, I know. he generally needs a bit more perspective with what he says sometimes.
+Scsigs Yeah; I just pity him.
Yeah, he needs to just keep a level head when going into something rather than just yelling at what he thinks is crap. He's just become, like I said, more salty as he's reviewed.
+Scsigs I agree. I wonder how we can help him?
I watched this episode as a kid, and even though I did not consider it to be that horrible, I agree with you that it was pointless because Bendy was never seen again and Frankie and Mr. Herriman believed Bendy even though nobody besides them was on his side, not even his family.
Bendy looks like a character from a Dr. Seuss book, & I know what Dr. Seuss characters look like.
I always thought he did too.
The fact that they never believed Wilt is what bothered me. I understand them not believing Bloo, but they know Wilt and should know that he is one of the most honest people ever. I just never got over that and probably never will
Even worse; John Travolta accidentally shot him in the face!
@@Doommaster1994i get it!
Bendy looks like a deformed Electabuzz
BubbleManStudios Ebulubbulabubu
Elekid maybe?
BubbleManStudios
Electabuzz if he was drawn by Dr. Seuss.
tbh he kinda looks like cheese
What they should have done, was have Bloo play some sort of prank on Bendy, because he's new. Then Wilt rats Bloo out, and Bloo is punished. This gives Bendy a reason to blame Bloo for his actions, gives Frankie a reason to think Bloo is trying to frame Bendy, and also gives Frankie a reason to not believe Wilt; she thinks he's trying to protect Bloo to apologize for ratting him out earlier.
For some reason, I thought this episode ended on the twist that there were two Bendys, one being a jerk and the other always taking the blame.
How can Frankie not believe Wilt that Bendy did it and not him? He is the most honest cartoon character I know and he never tell one lie throughout all 79 episodes.
The ep. should have had Bendy actually miss his friend. He could say that he felt abandoned and betrayed. Bloo befriends and empathizes with Bendy remembering how he felt when he was being sent to Foster's. He eventually promises Bendy to have the same set up that him and Mac has. When they do arrive to the house the next day they see Bendy's creator already imagined another friend leaving Bendy heartbroken that he could have been so easily replaced. Bloo doesn't know how to deal with it because he still has Mac in his life. So he turns to his friends for help. They could have somehow let Bendy know that everything will be okay and not worry about anything.
Or if they still wanted to be a d*ck, Bendy wasn't being falsely accused but everyone in the house sympathizes with him. Small silly pranks have been happening around the house and everyone blames Bloo for them. A huge prank happens and Mac can vouch that it wasn't Bloo, Frankie and Mr. Harriman believes he's covering for Bloo. It turns into a mystery of who's pulling the pranks, revealing it's Bendy. Bendy is sent to his room and Bloo is let off the hook. Everyone apologizes for falsely accusing Bloo. It could on a funny, cliche note of Frankie joking they should have known because Bloo isn't smart enough to pull a prank like that. Bloo accidentally agrees before shouting out hey.
It also makes me wonder why the kid thought Bendy up in the first place.
Is the kid a psychopath? Did he think Bendy up on accident, during a dream, during a nightmare? Was Bendy nice to the kid and not everyone else?
Bendy's grin is like the picture definition of the phrase "shit-eating grin".
another problem, when they were playing video games, the gamecube wasnt even plugged in
I JUST NOTICED THEY WERE PLAYING AN ATARI GAME LOL
Is it me or does Bendy look like a Dr. Seuss character?
I was pissed at this episode because THEY AIRED IT ALL THE TIME!
ikr
Oh good...I'm not the only one who hated this episode...
Well you know an episode is bad when the writer themselves regret writing it.
+rose SKERRETT Well...I was in elementary school when this episode aired...And I was possibly the only kid that didn't like mean spirited humor.
I know right and I had the same thought about wilt being more trusted. And it's nice seeing more people like me. People who hate going outside and would rather play video games all day and sleep all night. Oh just me plz like if u cry every time
+Shadow Waluigi
I've never seen this episode and yet I think it is worse than an animated however you spell the name.
+sarah hopper atrocity.
When I was a kid and watched this episode the amount of rage it gave me was unbelievable
Well, this is just a couple theories but… All imaginary friends are made by a child right? Right. So there is the idea that Bendy’s creator was going through a rebellious phase and made Bendy to cause mischief in his creator’s house. If Bendy’s creator did make him for that reason then he would have every reason to feel guilty that someone who was made to be a troublemaker ends up abandoned.
Another idea that I had was that maybe Bendy’s creator was bullied, but every time he tried to retaliate he would get in trouble. So he made Bendy just to protect him and pick on other people and get them in trouble much like he did so he could feel a sense of revenge and satisfaction from the punishments dished out at the bullies. But eventually Bendy goes too far resulting in his creator getting suspended/expelled and his parents getting a phone call, His parents decided to get rid of Bendy and the rest is history.
Now these are just theories and I’m not claiming them to be true in any way.
I watched this episode as a kid and even then i remember being so annoyed with Bloo falling into those obvious traps. Also I can understand Frankie and Mr. Herriman thinking Bloo did all those things, he has been known to cause trouble, but Wilt??!!! and yes you make a very good point about how Wilt never lies and yet they believe Bendy over him.
*sees Bendy*
*Flowey's theme intensifies*
*Justifiable rage intensifies*
ROFL
I dun get it... :/
MrDoomzDay look up Undertale.
+fritz philogene that made literally no sense
and don't bring undertale into this because it has a fanbase shittier than the poop i took on your doorstep
that sounds bad, man.
You should see a doctor about that. It's too late to stop it now.
3:14 - IDK if you know this by now, MrEnter, but I heard that this episode was supposed to be the full running time of 2 episodes. However the network didn't want the episode to be that long so there's a good chance there's scenes missing that would have made this episode far less obnoxious. Lauren clearly made some mistakes in this episode but I don't think all of it can be blamed on her.
Growing up I was traumatized by the live-action Grinch movie and thus developed a phobia of all Dr Seuss artwork. I actually loved this episode for taking his famous style and making a villain with it, it was like clarity; for the first time someone besides me was acknowledging the fact that Dr Seuss drawings are scary
Better way this could have been, instead of showing bendy doing all the problems, have them happen without us knowing who it is, and then we would ourselves question if Bendy is innocent or if he realy is a bad friend.
The question is: why would Bendy's Creator imagine something like him? As in, why would he imagine an imaginary friend that lies, is a tattle-tale, and is a suck-up?
Perhaps there is some legitimacy to the beginning with Bendy's creator looking guilty. Since Bendy is the product of his imagination, maybe the kid created him to take the fall for everything he did, and Bendy is bitter over it. Probably reading too far into it, still pretty bad episode for Foster's Home.
I thought it looked more like a look of shame or disappointment. Here he made an imaginary friend, that upset his parents so much. It's like the kid wished Bendy didn't have to go, but Bendy did cause a lot of damage at their house, and upset his parents.
SpongicX Maybe his parents are authoritative dicks and Bendy was his pent up wild child lashing out?XD
I thought the most hated episode was "Mac Daddy" when Cheese was introduced. Even the writers said creating Cheese was a mistake because he is THE most annoying character in Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends.
I don't remember minding that episode.
Lauren Faust said it was this episode along with the Fem Fatal episode of The Power Puff Girls that she regrets writing the most. but I personally thought that episode was actually done pretty well. and was great at showing real equality! I don't know if I'm alone on that, anyone?
I was actually not that bothered by this episode. However, there were some other episodes that I didn’t like.
Oh, I wasn't really bothered by that Femme Fatale episode, plus, that episode does speak certain facts at least, for reminding that there still is justice for both gender, even if it's small or not seen so often, which I respect. It's the "Sweet N Sour" episode from powerpuff girls that bothers me.
On the subject of Foster's, you should totally review "When There's a Wilt, There's a Way". It's literally a torture porn for the most likeable character on the snow!
You know what would probably make this episode better? Two words: Madame Foster. She's never seen, or even mentioned in this episode, but hear me out when I say she'd probably fix every problem here. For one, she could probably just see Bendy herself, and side with Bloo and the others on it (and she's kind of cool like that). As a bonus, Herriman and Frankie would believe her because as the person who founded the house, they both know she wouldn't lie about this sort of thing. I'm a little tempted as to question whether or not she'd blame Bendy, though. She's definitely empathetic towards others more often than not, but if she's running a house with too many imaginary friends to count, she's probably seen a fair share of sob-stories anyway, and would interrogate Bendy a little as a result.
BTW, you're pretty much speaking for all of us in the fandom in saying that Lauren Faust did an amazing job at fixing a show like MLP. Look up the term "Miracle Worker" in the dictionary, her face and birthdate are gonna be on there!
I remember, when I was a little kid and I watched this episode, I was getting all sweaty and worked up over how ridiculous it was. I HATED this episode. It was almost traumatic.
What did you mean by, getting all sweaty and worked up for how ridiculous it was?
Oh god, this episode infuriated me as a kid. Thank you so much for doing this.
***** We get it.
uncut (it WAS slashed to ribbons after she wrote it) it would probably have been a little bit better of an episode. the biggest missing link was the actual origin of Bendy and why he was a jerk, which was cut.
And I really don't like the imposter's home for make 'em up pals episode. I felt so sorry for Frankie when Goofball was acting like a jerk to her. :(
Didn't they at least make up at the end of the episode?
I guess...
jairom1242 The problem is that entire episode is essentially a "Frankie Torture Porn" ala Squidward in new Spongebob.
Whether or not she wins or makes up, the entire thing was incredibly mean-spirited to her.
papershadow69
BUT! they did make it up to her. thats more than anyone has ever done for squidward
yeah, I think there should be an animated atrocity episode of THAT episode
Deal with an Ink Demon or a deformed yellow grinch?
I choose Ink Demon, at least I like him, the other one makes me want to bash the deformed Electabuzz into a wall.
You what to know what else really pisses me off about this episode? Its sister episode, “Where There’s a Wilt, There’s a Way”, is all about Wilt being a total doormat and everyone trampling all over him. If that one had been a double-length, with the second half being about Wilt being more assertive and standing up for himself, that would have worked. Instead, it’s cut to the first half (Heck, less than the first half) to make space for this disaster.
K1naku5ana3R1ka
Unpopular opinion, I think Where There's a Wilt, There's a Way is the worse of the two. It's a pure Wilt torture. If they'd both been full-length episodes, I think they both could have worked
James EE How could Everybody Knows It’s Bendy be done better as a double-length? Have everyone pull off an epic plan to get back at Bendy in the end?
K1naku5ana3R1ka
Here's my rough draft:
First, get Wilt out of the way. Like Enter said, Wilt is such a nice guy they should have believed him.
I'd have the episode begin with Frankie sending Wilt on an errand. He's walking out as Bendy's family is walking in.
I'd remove the video game scene and replace it with Bloo and Mac throwing a football or something around. Mr. Herriman scolds them about possibly breaking something. When Mr. Herriman comes in a second time, the vase is broken, but we don't see how, leaving room for Bendy's possible innocence. Bloo and Mac blame Bendy, but when Bendy comes in he says he was setting up his room (no obnoxious crying or grin) which gives him a fairly solid alibi.
I'd also change it to where Bendy is specifically targeting Bloo and Mac. At one point Mac demands to know why Bendy is behaving this way, and Bendy gives an origin story where his creator was a trouble maker who threw him under the bus when they were caught. Mac can relate to this because Bendy's creator is similar to his brother Terrance. Mac explains this and they have a brief friendship by pranking Terrance, but Bendy eventually turns on them because he feels he can't trust anyone.
I would remove the intercom scene entirely. How could Frankie/Mr. Herriman not have recognized two very different voices?
Wilt is arriving back from his errand when he sees Bendy do something through a window, and he begins following him to investigate further.
I would keep the cookie jar scene pretty much the same, but after Bloo gets in trouble for flooding the house, Wilt shows up and testifies for Bloo that he saw Bendy in action. Here, they believe Wilt, and Bendy gets in at least some trouble.
K1naku5ana3R1ka
How's that sound?
James EE Way better. Doesn’t flush the potential ambiguity down the toilet, or require the whole cast to act like idiots, and Bendy could definitely be way more tolerable.
I’m less mad at Bendy, and more mad at Frankie & Mr. Herriman’s gullibility.
Everyone's reaction when they found out Child's Play was having a remake 0:41
Bendy could have asked to play then cheated, or made the controller gross, or use the last life in the level and then ditch the others, or low-key trash talk or SOMETHING. A slower burn and gradual build up to being sick of Bendy’s small but common traits could be fodder for a good moral lesson! But NOOOO
To be honest I love this show I hated this episode
RandomCartoons20000 WOW! It's almost like you watched the video too! I thought I was the only one! :O
Hi Eyeless Jack. :D
RandomCartoons20000 This one, and "Equal Fights" from PPG. I don't really blame her for regretting either.
Bonnie you gave me nightmares, I can't even go to sleep with you in my head.
Dude that grin is creepy as shit...
She regretted writing it and it was one of the most common reruns on TV...why did Cartoon Network make us suffer..why..
You know what would have fixed all of this episode's problems? If the others weren't involved with Bendy. Just Blue being alone each time he's set up. Also, it would probably help if Blue tried to blame Bendy for something first, Bendy gets away by throwing up a sad face, and THEN he starts framing Blue like an a**hat!
If Faust regretted writing this episode (that is overhated at this point), I wonder if she regrets writing these atrocities (which are worthy of becoming future Animated Atrocities): Frankie My Dear, Mac Daddy and Crime After Crime? Which are all worse than Everyone Knows it's Bendy by a very long shot.
As bad as this episode is, I think Foster's Goes to Europe is just as bad, if not worse. Mac gets treated like complete shit in that episode for no good reason whatsoever, there's some incredibly out-of-character moments from most of the cast, Eurotrish is an incredibly annoying character, and Madame Foster not only acts horribly out-of-character, but gets away with letting Mac take the blame for her actions with no consequences whatsoever.
I hated that episode, too.
Bendy from BATIM: Wait.... this feels familiar. Did I come from this?
This episode pissed me off to the fullest, I wanted to punch Bendy
No, the next episode is not a tribute to Lauren. I always list what the next episode is in the credits.
. . . . I don't get exactly what's wrong with this episode. When I saw it I thought it was totally fine. I got why Bendy was being so cruel . . because he was wrongly accused of causing trouble in his own house because his kid creator used him as a scapegoat for his antics. This gave Bendy the impression that he can do whatever he wants whenever he wants as long as he plays the victim. This is understandable amongst children . . . the audience this show is targeted for. Kids do terrible things and then blame it on other people all the time, it's a power they become obsessed with when they discover how to lie. It doesn't matter that he's being so cruel to people he's never met, what matters is that he was heartbroken by his creators betrayal and decided to take the wrong lesson from it.
As for Bloo blaming somebody he's never met for something that happened . . . that DOES seem in character for him seeing as he's the one causing shenanigans on the Foster's home ALL THE TIME and so naturally he's the first person to blame whenever something goes wrong. He'll shift blame whenever it's convenient for him, especially when he's not the one who actually did anything.
And the way this plot progresses, through Bloo constantly falling for traps to become the scapegoat, I thought was fine because Bloo has been constantly portrayed to be dull-witted and often very gullible. In fact, Bloo is the perfect foil for this kind of episode because this episode plays towards his weaknesses as a character. He's often selfish and douchey, thus people shift blame on him, and he's kind of an idiot, thus he always falls into traps. And the ending to this episode I thought was a great punchline, Bloo went through this terribly elaborate scheme to catch Bendy in the act only to cause a much greater atrocity. This is a great lesson portrayed funny: doing terrible things only builds up to something worse happening in the end, and so you should take the high road and be considerate and well meaning towards people because lies don't last forever and revenge only makes you just as bad as your opposition.
Soo . . .I don't get what's wrong here.
+TomboTime Bendy was never wrongly accused. he actually did all those things on his house. that's why he makes that evil smile when he does those things.
the reason people don't like this episode is the fact that Bendy never got what he deserved. he was an asshole to everybody but nothing bad happens to him
when I saw it as a child I was really pissed
+keny 19 You misunderstood what I meant by what I said. When I said Bendy was wrongly accused of doing things in his own house . . . I was referring to the house he lived in BEFORE Foster's with his creator child. The whole reason he shows up to Fosters in the first place is because the kids parents think he's a bad influence on their son and they refuse to acknowledge the possibility that their son may have caused the destruction instead. When they walk away, you catch a glimpse of sadness on the boys face, implying that he probably DID do the bad things and blame it on his imaginary friend. It would make sense for Bendy to derive from a personality like that, and that's the lesson he takes from it.
And I wouldn't say Bendy never got what he deserved. He got the shear embarrassment of what happened to him in the ending. Bloo just got what he deserved to, I.E. punishment for flooding the whole house. This once again reasserts the lesson that people should get punished for doing bad things, but not by having you do to them what they did to you, as revenge only makes you just as bad as them.
+TomboTime I think the real problem is that the episode just doesn't really convey any of this well enough. Too much time is spent on Bendy being an ass hat and getting away with it. And honestly, his little embarrassment at the pretty much pales in comparison to what he did to the others. Whether or not the kid was doing all those things before Bendy came to Foster's is irrelevant because Bendy is still an ass hat that doesn't really get in trouble for anything he's done.
I mean if I remember right, Lauren herself said that this episode was a huge mistake sooo...
This is all correct and stuff. However the problem is that Edwardo and Wilt were dragged into this. The fact that these two were blamed and stuff basically ruined the episode.
But where in the episode did they say or even hint at this being the reason for his actions?
I remember watching this episode when I was younger, and not minding all that much. To me, any episode with Cheese in it was a bad episode. Everything else was fine, to me.
But looking at it now, I see that it actually could have been salvageable, had it been approached slightly differently. A slight change, I think, is all that it needed. It should have been broken up into a two-parter, or something similar, with Part One leading up to Bendy's acts of cruelty and making the viewers feel a little more sympathetic and conflicted in regards to his behavior. Showing more of him acting innocent and trying to win everyone over would have been a great way to do that. Then, perhaps halfway through Part One, he throws away his act around the other Imaginary Friends, and starts causing trouble. This would have greatly increased the shock value, and made viewers more dedicated to seeing him learn a lesson.
Part Two could have slipped in a couple flashbacks or exposition about WHY Bendy is the way he is. Obviously, the kid he belonged to made him that way, so why? What situation would arise that would make such an innocent-looking child want such a destructive and abusive friend? It could have given more room for the resolution as well, having Bendy get caught, AND showing us his punishment, and perhaps helping him learn a lesson... or showing the characters and audience that he wouldn't change even if he got caught.
Now that I think about it, I think Bendy DID do the things the parents accused him of doing. He is that kids imaginary friend, and the kid also looked hella guilty.
That episode where Bloo gets beat up by that back ally thug and thrown in a dumpster was a HORRIBLE episode and so was Bye Bye Nerdy. I just fucking hate it when bullies and thugs never get their comeuppances. That shit should be illegal just like pedophilia when it comes to films and TV shows. If you're gonna show a bully or thug, at least give him his proper comeuppance or don't even fucking bother, you hear that Hollywood?! Stop sending the wrong messages when it comes to topics such as bullying. I mean the whole "karma-houdini" is one of the worst tropes next to "It was all just a dream" bar-none!
And speaking of bullies and thugs; Mac's older bullying brother Terrance looks like that convict from the beginning of every Superjail episode!
And also the fact that Wilt, Eduardo, and Coco were acting like total assholes in that same episode.
This episode really could’ve benefitted from some extra runtime. Like you said it should’ve been a 22 minute episode. Add some scenes of Bendy growing resentment towards the group to make his behavior more understandable. Or even better they could’ve kept the ambiguity going by having a bunch of stuff break and nobody sees him doing it. It could’ve been a great mystery episode.
Also, while yes, I agree that this episode stunk, it taught us a lesson about revenge. Sometimes jerks get away with shit and the more you try to get back at them, the worse it makes you look. Sometimes its best just to forget about assholes and, eventually, they might just be gone from our lives for good (Like Bendy was).
Screw Bendy. He got away with crap. He is not on the show anymore. He is GONE.
Like, the thing is though, I really appreciated that this episode portrayed the common problem children face when there's a good noodle and a bad egg; the bad kid does something mischievous, then frames the innocent kid but because the adult/babysitter didn't see it happen (or is too lazy to try to bring real justice) the bad kid gets away with it and the good kid is blamed, with the good kid feeling the judgement was extremely unfair.
What I don't like about this episode though, is that its final resolution was revenge, not actually being nice or friendly to Bendy. I feel like maybe his problem was that he really had no friends. Sure, he sucked up to Frankie and Herriman, but other than that they personally weren't friends with him. Even his own kid abandoned him. Which, (here's just a theory of mine), what if the kid HAD blamed Bendy? I know, it's very unlikely, but think about it: because his creator could use him as a scapegoat but after so much trouble he realized it was either going to ultimately be him in trouble or Bendy, so instead of finally taking the blame as a step of growing up, he disowned his imaginary friend. Heartbroken and confused as seen in the episode, Bendy feels distraught. But, once he comes to the realization he has a completely clean slate at Foster's, he realizes he can do what his kid did to him. And so the victim becomes the bully.
The reason why the episode ends the way it does is because Bloo chose to fight fire with fire, thus resulting in the house being destroyed and Bendy not learning anything because when Bloo out-pranked Bendy, it only showed Bendy that he needed to be the one on top and to crank up his jerk-ness to an 11.
That's how I see it, and it's how I cope with it.
imaginary friends play GameCube. Good taste of games
Mhm. 👍
i bet they were playing melee lmao
Ignorant Swine AYYYYYYYYYYYYY
Strange fact: This episode happens to be paired with another detested episode : "Where There's A Wilt, There's a Way". Both have bizarre runtimes. "There's A Wilt" honestly could've worked if its pacing wasn't so slow (despite being around 8 or so minutes) and not as excessive towards Wilt to deliver a ham fisted "just say no" Aesop.
I hated both the worst
The title of the episode should of been "Everyone FAILS to know that it's Bendy."
I loved this show, but I definitely remember not liking this episode
They've sent you a letter, to come back home to play, but to your dismay, this isn't your day, for the happy fun time had begun to fade.
Even as a kid, I always wanted Bendy to get punished for all of the Hell he put everyone through.
I would've loved this as the ending:
Frankie and Harriman are about to reward Bendy for doing something he took credit for, but then, every single person in the house, maybe even including Madame Foster, tell them about everything Bendy did, and this would finally make Frankie and Harriman realize what Bloo and the others said was true, and so Bendy finally gets punished for all of the terrible things he did.
Or even better:
An anvil falls on Bendy's head, then he falls on a sewer, then the hospital charges him 100 million dollars and he suffers a heart attack right then and there and dies
That yellow hairball is like discord but without the charm
It was on for 61 episodes? It seemed much longer than that when I was a kid.
***** Are you sure, Craig Lewis wright Adoptocalypse Now, Partying Is Such Sweet Soiree, Berry Scary (With Megan McCarthy), & The Trouble With Scribbles, not Lauren Faust.
Who’s reaching out to capture our hatred, smirking at everybody he sees, who’s reaching out to troll all his neighbors, everyone knows its Bendy
Even good writers are human. They can't always crank out one masterpiece after another and they shouldn't be expected to, either. I can't imagine the pressure and anxiety of having to come up with something perfect every time because my audience will think my brain was taken over by space aliens if I don't.
I remember this was always my favorite episode of this show, but that was probably because it didn't come on that often.
Writer's thought Process -
"Hmm... Lets have Bloo, Coco, Wilt, and Eduardo playing games, then Bendy comes and knocks over a flower pot and then run out to get Frankie and Harriman."
"Yeah, then what?"
"They get blamed for knocking over the flower pot."
"And then...?"
"Bloo tries saying it was Bendy, and none of them. And after Frankie and Harriman don't believe him, Wilt tries confirming it, but they still don't believe them."
"Wait, why don't they beleieve Wilt?"
"Because Bendy cries."
"Ahhhhh, ok. Sounds good, sounds good."
I never saw this episode as a kid and tbh i'm super glad i didnt.
they should've just ended the episode when bloo caught bendy in the act and frankie and mr. herriman apologized to bloo and the main characters. I agree that it would've made the episode a lot more decent.
P.S this show is my childhood.
I have a good suggestion for Animated Atrocities: 'Depth Takes a Holiday' and The musical episode from Daria. Another great show from beginning to end, except for those two episodes.
Daria actually has a lot of episodes that are decent candidates for Admirable Animations too. Episodes like: Monster, Boxing Daria, Arts & Crass, The Esteemers etc.
Fun Fact: Frankie and Mr. Herriman's voice actors have admitted that they regret voicing their characters in that manner.
oh man i remember the first time i saw this episode, bendy pissed me off so damn much. everytime he had that grin on his face i wanted to smack that grin right off his smug face
I prefer strangling Bendy
Bendy is one of those people who likes to play the victim and tends to manipulate others into thinking they are nice but in reality they are troublesome.
I miss this more condensed style of review. No wild tangents that go on too long and straight to the point. I wish you had kept it.
0:48 Infamous? I don't exactly know about that, but whatever, your opinion.
Everyone Knows It's Bendy AND THE INK MACHINE
Even Lauren and Craig hate this episode
First of all, thank you SO MUCH for doing this. I always HATED that episode. I never liked it when a character would do something wrong and not get any repercussions or somebody else got blamed for it or both.
That being said I have one question...how in the HELL did Bendy know how to spell Bloo's name right!? He only ever heard it spoken, so by that logic he should of spelled it like the color blue, thus being an indication that Bloo himself didn't write it. Bloo is short for Blooregard, Bloo's full name being Blooregard Q. Kazoo. How could Bendy POSSIBLY know to use that particular spelling?
Why when Bendy cries sounds like SpongeBob in the episode " Pizza Delivery "
