**Gamma Distribution Estimation**

Let \( X_1, \ldots, X_n \) be a random sample from a gamma distribution with parameters \( \alpha = 2 \) and \( \beta = \theta \).

1. **Likelihood Function**: Find the simplified likelihood of \( \theta \) given \( x \): \( L(\theta | x) \).

2. **Maximum Likelihood Estimator**: Find the maximum likelihood estimator of \( \theta \), denoted as \( \hat{\theta}_{MLE} \).

3. **Unbiased Estimator**: Show that the value you found for \( \hat{\theta}_{MLE} \) is unbiased.
