Mike Tyson Mysteries is a cleverly written animated series that follows over-the-top scenarios of superstar boxer Mike Tyson as he tackles various mysteries and entities for his mysterious group. Season 3 episode 12, "At the Car Wash," is a prime example of his comedic and absurdist adventures.
The episode opens with the gang driving in their Mystery Mobile, which resembles a high-tech camper, heading to a car wash. The group consists of Mike Tyson, an ex-boxer with a lisp, his adopted daughter Yung Hee, the Pigeon voiced by Norm Macdonald, and Marquees of Queensberry, played by Jim Rash, the ghost of the founder of boxing. After their car goes through the car wash, they head into the lot and get a surprise when their vehicle is swapped out for what appears to be an identical camper.
After some investigating, they learn that the car wash is a front for a dealership that sells illegal clone vehicles. The group sets out to find who is behind the cloning, and hilariously enlists the help of a mechanic ghost who happens to be in the area. The group goes from investigating to hiding out, posing as a family in one of the dealer hideouts until they can gather enough information to stop the illegal activities.
As the episode continues, it becomes apparent that a rival boxing trainer is behind the cloning, and he has been cloning Mike's Mystery Mobile to sell to the wealthy and powerful. The group makes a daring move when they drive off in the original Mystery Mobile, with the opposite clone following closely behind.
The episode is witty, and the clever writing creates many hilarious moments throughout the plot. Mike Tyson's humor is endearing, and the absurdity of the story keeps the viewer engaged. The animation style is smooth, and the characters are visually pleasing to the eye.
In conclusion, the "At the Car Wash" episode of Mike Tyson Mysteries is a great addition to the series. The writing and animation are top-notch, and the story is well-structured and funny. It is definitely an episode you do not want to miss.
