Beans

"Does anyone wanna see somethin' cool?"

- Beans

Beans is a gum-chewing student of the Super Schoolhouse from Baldi's Basics Plus.

Description
Beans is a 2D-drawn human with a big mouth with a big gaping, toothless, gumless, toilet-shaped lower jaw, thin upper lip made as a black line, exposed gums and five crooked teeth on his upper jaw. He wears a purple and yellow striped propeller beanie cap, hence the name Beans. He has bulging eyes, crooked teeth, floating flat eyebrows, and a massive chin. His arms are short and has four fingers on each hand. He wears a sleeveless bubblegum-pink shirt, deep magenta pants and dark magenta pointed shoes. His chin appears to have some stubble.

He speaks with a distorted, echoing "mechanical" voice which can almost make all of his quotes difficult to understand what he's actually saying unless if the subtitles are turned on.

As seen in the thumbnail of one of Padre Snowmizzle's video, Beans has one black short hair under his cap.

Personality
Beans likes to "impress" others by blowing out bubble gum bubbles but warns the people to not let an adult see it, meaning that if he does it, he will get in detention, but currently in game he doesn't. He also enjoys rhyming, and is apparently very good at it. He is very honorable, being afraid of his bubble gum hitting the player. Also, he seems to have some shame after he hits the player or an NPC.

Main Gameplay
Upon anyone coming into his line of sight, Beans will spit a big pink bubble gum wad through any location, mostly in hallways. Whoever comes in contact with the gum wad, whether it be the player or another NPC, will be caught in the sticky gum and have their movement speed drastically reduced for 10 seconds. Upon getting hit by a gum wad, the player will be vulnerable to pursuing characters, including Baldi, Playtime, Principal of the Thing, etc. The player's inventory is also covered by bubble gum, making it hard to know which item is selected. However the Safety Scissors can be used to cut off Beans' gum if getting hit by the gum wad. It's a Bully, Chalkles and Beans himself are the only characters who are immune to his bubble gum.

Beans can be helpful on occasions, as his bubble gum can slow riskier characters (e.g.: Baldi and Principal of the Thing) down. The bubble gum can go through doors (only when open) and normal swinging doors. If the Portal Poster is placed, it can go through the portal as well.

If Beans is heading to or entering the Principal's office for joining the party event, he will not spit a bubble gum at the player.

Other Appearances

 * In Baldi's Basics Kickstarter Exclusive Demo and before Baldi's Basics Plus V0.1.2, Beans' AI is not majorly different but his sticky gum slows the player down much more than usual and cannot be cut off with Safety Scissors.

Trivia

 * General
 * Beans was first made as a character for Padre's Baldi's Basics fangame. The concept was done by Malitschek (Jam).
 * Beans is around 25 to 30 of an unknown unit of age, most likely years.
 * Despite this, he is still a student who has been held back for that long due to his mediocre math studies.
 * Beans has dyscalculia, a disability that affects one's ability to comprehend and learn arithmetic. This explains why Beans was held back for many years considering Baldi's school only teaches math. This information was confirmed by Padre Snowmizzle in a Discord chat group when asked if Beans experiences this disorder.
 * In case Beans is 30 years old, he would be older than Baldi, whose age is confirmed to be 29 years old.


 * Baldi's Basics Plus
 * Beans is the first character not to be made and one of the five characters not to be voiced by mystman12 (Other four being 1st Prize, Chalkles, Mrs. Pomp and Johnny) but someone else, who is Padre Snowmizzle.
 * Beans's gum is nearly identical to the BSODA spray, although the functionality when touched is different.
 * Since the V0.1.2 update, the gum does not slow the player down as much, and using Safety Scissors on the gum is now valid.
 * Prior to V0.3, in the "Hooka, a-chew, I'mma chewin' mah . Booka, a-too, it's tons o'fum... Er, fun!" subtitle, the word "gum" was misspelled as "gun".
 * The player is able to avoid Beans' gum if it is shot slightly off center down a hallway.
 * In the game's subtitles json file, there are two subtitles of no existing audios in the game: *BUBBLE BLOWING* and *SPLAT*.
 * Beans is one of the few features that slows the player's movement (but not completely stops it), in which the Big Ol' Boots will not let the player regain their normal speed.
 * When Beans goes to the Principal's office for the party event, his sprite will float in mid-air once he stands idle, but when he spits gum, it will shoot from the same height.

Glitches

 * Baldi's Basics Plus
 * Before V0.1.2, if the player activated the subtitles, when Beans says "Gum on the loose!" or "Oh no!", the subtitle used to say: "".
 * Prior to V0.3, Beans' bubblegum would not hit the player when the interaction icon appeared on the nearest structures, like the water fountain.
 * If the player is in Beans' hitbox, the bubble gum will not hit the player.
