After four years, our very own beloved Rowan Atkinson is back with another comedy flick “Man VS Bee” on Netflix. Today we are going to discuss what happened in the show and is it even binge-worthy?
Trevor Bingley played by Rowan Atkinson is hired for house sitting for a week but there’s a villain waiting out there in the body of Bee. As there’s a saying, life isn’t as easy as it looks. A middle-class divorced man gets to live in an extremely big and posh house. Is he gonna make things worse? OH YESS!
Let’s discuss the story in detail but here’s your spoiler warning since I am going to talk about the ending and explain it.
As soon as Trevor moves into the house, a Bee also comes into the house with him. The house is full of automatic functions and mystery. Oh, there’s a major role of Cupcake too haha, if you’ve seen the show you know who I am talking about.
Trevor struggles a lot in this fully automated house trying to understand things at first. He breaks things, tears things, and makes everything a lot worse. He knowingly and unknowingly destroys many precious and too costly things in the house. Bee is constantly making Trevor feel uneasy and we as viewers feel the same too.
In order to kill the Bee, Trevor makes a posh home a complete mess with his out-of-the-mind ideas and experiments. One night, 3 thieves comes to his house to steal the valuable things but they couldn’t since all of those things were fake. The house owner made all these up to get big cheque insurance by using bogus things.
Trevor was completely unaware of that and he still thought everything was too pricey. Again, unknowingly he gets the thieves caught and they went to jail straight. After mistakenly poisoning Cupcake, Trevor takes one of the owner’s cars to take her to the doctor and save her.
Exhausted from the Bee, Trevor decided to blow him up using a homemade bomb. As soon as he does that, the owners come back and see the terrible condition of their home.
Their home was literally on fire. They sue Trevor for all the damage that happened to the valuable things and the court finds Trevor guilty.
The Court orders a 3-year jail for Trevor and ends up being with those thieves who broke into the house of Nina and Christian to steal valuables. He overhears them talking that they got caught trying to steal fake items and Trevor gets shocked.
He immediately calls the police officer who came to the house to warn Trevor about the thieves. Trevor tells him the truth and the police catch the whole fraud of Christian and Nina. Christian gets arrested and we get to know that Christian himself sent those thieves to his home so that he can get the insurance money.
After being proved non-guilty, Trevor gets released immediately and he finally goes on a picnic with his daughter Maddy. The show ends on a happy note with the mad and weird Trever and stubborn Bee being back on their vacation. The show makes us feel not so good at a lot of points and cracks us hilariously. It’s a perfect treat to watch Rowan Atkinson back again after many years.
