Mr Monkeyjocks is the Thirty-Eighth episode of Season two, of Bluey.
Synopsis[]
Dad thinks the kids have too many toys and suggests a chuck out. To save their beloved Mr Monkeyjocks from getting the chop, Bluey and Bingo must prove he is special.
Episode Recap[]
Bluey is going through a toy catalog, circling items she wants in a red marker, when Bandit comes in with an armload of toys to put away, stepping on a toy echidna. Bingo comes in and says she's bored, and bandit exclaims "How can you be bored with this many toys!" He complains about the kids not putting their toys away, and Bluey responds by asking him to buy more stuff, including a TommyTeddy, Starlight Unicorse and a rainbow Boobear. He refuses, and goes to put a basket of toys in the cupboard — and gets buried in an avalanche of toys. He declares it's time for a chuck-out.
Bandit and Chilli set up a pair of baskets ('keep' and 'chuck') and a pile of toys to sort through. Every single toy ends up in the 'keep' basket, but there are two toys that remained in chuck for a bit, including a banana and a giraffe. at the end, only Mr Monkeyjocks, a monkey wearing jocks, is left in the "chuck" basket. Bandit complains that they never play with him, so they better show him that Mr Monkeyjocks is special if they want to keep him. Chilli comments that he's going to regret that.
The kids replace Bandit with Mr Monkeyjocks - he reads Bandit's paper, takes his place at the breakfast table. They bring him with them to an indoor playground, and they have him shoot Bandit with a ball cannon. On the way back home, Bandit "lets him drive". Arriving home, Bandit finds that Mr Monkeyjocks has take his sunglasses - and somehow married Chilli.
Bandit asks what he's supposed to do about all this - and Bluey suggests he can be Mr Monkeyjocks' butler. Bandit then walks off, cackling evily to himself after "listening" to what Mr Monkeyjocks has to say. Chilli remarks that Bluey is going to regret making Bandit the butler.
Bandit turns the tables on Bluey - Mr Monkeyjocks takes over the kids' room and replaces Blueys beds covers, replacing the yellow case patterned with bones, to a green case patterned with bananas, and takes the other toys' clothes, including Chutney Chimps suit and Lady Sparklehounds hat. Bluey, fed up, says that somebody should find somewhere else to live. Mr Monkeyjocks kicks the kids out of the house. Chilli dares to question him, asking if he was being harsh — and he kicks her out, too.
Chili and the kids sit on the front stes and talk about what a cheeky monkey he is, before deciding to ask if they can sleep in the backyard. They find that Mr Monkeyjocks has gone mad with power, and is having Bandit put all the toys in the 'chuck' basket, excluding himself, of course. His head then droops and Bluey says he looks a bit bored
The kids "listen" to him, and it turns out, Mr Monkeyjocks has come to the conclusion that "when you get everything you want, nothing is special anymore". What he wants now, is a chance to make someone else feel special.
They take another shot at the chuck-out, and this time, some toys actually do end up getting donated. The episode ends with a kid in the hospital, overjoyed to receive Mr Monkeyjocks as gift from his mum.

Trivia[]
- This episode first premiered on ABC Kids in October 2020 as one of several sneak peaks, the other ones being Bin Night and Burger Shop.
- This is the fourth Series 2 episode that has regional differences. In the Disney distributed version:
- Chilli's line "Come here, lover boy," was changed to "Come here, sweetheart."
- Bandit's line "He's gone crazy," was changed to "He's gone bananas."
- In the episode, it includes something called a Starlight Unicorse, which differs to a Moonlight Unicorn, a toy shown in the The Quiet Game, the previous episode. It is not shown how they differ, but it is presumed the Unicorse is a puppet and the unicorn is not.
- In the opening scene, one of the kid's toys looks like Sans from the video game Undertale. This is the second appearance of this toy, after The Sleepover. Another Easter egg in the form of a toy is a mushroom right of the Sans Easter egg, the mushroom resembling Swedish YouTuber Vinesauce.
- Long Dog: This long dog is yellow with a red nose, a button eye, and a green striped patch where the spot usually is. It is most visible at the start of the episode right behind the aforementioned Sans Easter egg.
