Bluey Recap: The Claw (#1.19)

The Heeler’s are out to dinner and Bingo gets a coin for the “clawthing” machine, which results in winning nothing but disappointment.
Bluey sulks, but at home Mum tells them to collect their toys and she becomes the claw machine. However, even after winning a prize, Bluey is not convinced.
Dad steps in to show them how it’s done (Chilli’s plan all along??). After he fires up the claw machine music he tells Bluey to get a job and get some real coins. Mum gives them 20c for “making” the bed.
The girls return to activate the magic claw and it grabs Bingo’s toy dolphin but then drops it whilst bleeping “YOU LOSE”.
Magic Claw Dad tells them to insert more money, which Bluey quickly correlates with doing more jobs. The girls run off to clean and Bandit congratulates himself on such an excellent plan - teaching the kids a lesson AND making them clean the house, to which Chilli promptly replies that NEITHER of those things are happening.
After another miss, magic claw retrieves two prizes and the girls want to play again. Mum suggests a different game (obviously over the house being “cleaned” toddler style), but Magic Claw has a bonus prize of bottomless icecream!
Bluey convinces Bingo to give up ‘Grey Dancer’ in exchange for another coin, promising she’ll win him back. However, Magic Claw shuts down, claiming he is too weak.
Bandit tries to get the girls to repeat what they’ve learnt (chores = dollarbucks? life isn’t fair?) which results in Bluey tickling him to get their toys back.
Magic Claw Dad gets up to chase them but runs into the coffee table and collapses.
After dinner that night when the girls are eating their icecream, Chilli pointedly steers the conversation back to Bandits “did anyone learn a lesson today” question. Bluey and Bingo both reply “nope”, but Bandit responds (with his bandaged leg and exhausted expression no doubt preempting the sugar high that’s going to follow) that “These kids are awesome”
