When Mr. Bean's record of Beethoven's Symphony No. 5 is broken, he decides to buy a new record until he sees a grand piano to which he wants to play it but it has been sold to a short man. When it becomes out of tune, the man cancels the order and Bean buys it. When he plays it at home, it is out of tune because Teddy is stuck to the piano strings, but he still cannot get the hang of it even when he calls the piano instructor (the short man from earlier). Afterwards, the instructor gets an idea of recording Beethoven's symphony for Bean.
