At {{age|1989|10|13}} years old and the youngest female ever elected to Congress, she has built a national [[Twitter]] following using [[Godwin's Law]].

AOC claimed the [[Deep State coup 2.0|impeachment of Donald Trump]] was the only issue uniting Democrats in Congress, putting aside the differences between radical socialists and alleged moderates, and that's why uniformly they chose to do a [[kamikaze]] dive.<ref>https://news.yahoo.com/aoc-says-impeachment-necessary-unite-142706386.html</ref>

Ocasio-Cortez had four ethics complaints filed against her in the first six weeks after taking office. The [[Gallup Poll]] gives her a net 10 point negative favorability rating which may be impossible to ever overcome. With the 2020 Census, New York is likely to lose one seat due to the outflow of population from an inhospitable tax environment; Ocasio-Cortez is on the chopping block of the Democratically controlled legislature.<ref>https://theintercept.com/2019/02/09/ocasio-cortez-district-redistricting-2020/</ref>

==Background==

Its wings are too small to get
+
Ocasio-Cortez is a [[cultural Marxist]] reared to believe the [[dialectical materialism|dialectical materialist]] view that [[capitalism]] is a transitory phase to socialism in which the planet will be ruled by an enlightened elite of [[anti-democratic]] [[technocrat]]s, should it survive a climate crisis. She believes the Marxist notion that capitalism is an [[ideology]], and not a simple paradigm of fundamental [[economic]] laws. A descendant of [[white]] [[Europe]]ans during the [[Conquistador|Spanish Conquest (''La Conquista'')]] of the [[Western Hemisphere]] who imposed [[colonialism|colonial]] rule and [[cultural hegemony]] over [[Native American]]s and trafficked in the [[Africa]]n slave trade, Ocasio-Cortez now thinks she is an oppressed woman of color.

Ocasio-Cortez, who is said to hold degrees in economics and international relations ''cum laude''  from Boston University, is fond of quoting the  "the famous economist, Milton Keynes."<ref>https://twitter.com/andurudottext/status/1226270913240256512?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw</ref>

Although Ocasio-Cortez pretends to speak for and come from [[poverty]], she grew up in the [[white privilege]]d suburb of Westchester County with a median household income of $83,000 and net worth of $1.2 million – one of the highest in the country. Westchester County is the home of the [[Clinton]] and [[Rockefeller]] estates.<ref>https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5905247/amp/Girl-Bronx-Alexandria-Ocasio-Cortez-actually-grew-wealthy-Westchester-County.html</ref>

 +
Economist [[F.A. Hayek]] explained the rise of figures such as Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez in a chapter of the ''[[The Road to Serfdom]]'':
 +
{{quotebox|If a numerous group is needed, strong enough to impose their views on the values of life on all the rest, it will never be those with highly differentiated and developed tastes it will be those who form the "mass" in the derogatory sense of the term, the least original and independent, who will be able to put the weight of their numbers behind their particular ideals.<br>... he[/she] will be able to obtain the support of all the docile and gullible, who have no strong convictions of their own but are prepared to accept a ready-made system of values if it is only drummed into their ears sufficiently loudly and frequently. It will be those whose vague and imperfectly formed ideas are easily swayed and whose passions and emotions are readily aroused who will thus swell the ranks of the [[single party control|totalitarian party]].<br>It is in connection with the deliberate effort of the skillful [[demagogue]] to weld together a closely coherent and homogeneous body of supporters that the third and perhaps most important negative element of selection enters. It seems to be almost a law of human nature that it is easier for people to agree on a negative programme, on the hatred of an enemy, on the [[envy]] of those better off, than on any positive task. The contrast between the "we" and the "they", the common fight against those outside the group, seems to be an essential ingredient in any creed which will solidly knit together a group for common action. It is consequently always employed by those who seek, not merely support of a policy, but the unreserved allegiance of huge masses. From their point of view it has the great advantage of leaving them greater freedom of action than almost any positive programme. The enemy, whether he be internal like the "[[Jew]]" or the "[[Kulak]]", or external, seems to be an indispensable requisite in the armoury of a totalitarian leader.<br>That in Germany it was the Jew who became the enemy till his place was taken by the "[[Plutocracy|plutocracies]]" was no less a result of the anti-capitalist resentment on which the whole movement was based than the selection of the Kulak in [[Russia]]. In [[Germany]] and [[Austria]] the Jew had come to be regarded as the representative of [[capitalism]] because a traditional dislike of large classes of the population for commercial pursuits had left these more readily accessible to a group that was practically excluded from the more highly esteemed occupations.<ref>https://fee.org/resources/the-road-to-serfdom-chapter-10-why-the-worst-get-on-top/</ref>}}

AOC wants to turn the Democratic party into "the party of [[FDR]]," who threw [[Japan]]ese-American [[citizen]]s, born in America, guilty of nothing, into concentration camps and opposed the Republican Anti-lynching law.<ref>https://dcdirtylaundry.com/what-is-she-smokin-aoc-wants-to-bring-the-dems-back-to-fdr-days-complete-with-internment-camps/</ref>  A ''[[Wall Street Journal]]'' op-ed noted that Ocasio-Cortez

{{quotebox|leads a generation of young people to take pride in their ignorance—of the laws of nature, of history, of the Constitution, of the eternal battle for freedom—and still succeed.}}

Like many other leftwing cultists who glorify the accomplishments of New Dealers in the 1940s, few realize the boys who [[Normandy Invasion|stormed the beaches at Normandy]] to defend democracy and defeat fascism were virtually all [[heterosexual]] white men - whom liberals demonize today - as the U.S. Armed Services were segregated by race and blacks denied frontline combat roles until 1947, and [[homosexual]]s were banned until 1993.

During the communist induced [[coronavirus]] [[pandemic]] while America was on lockdown Ocasio-Cortez uploaded to [[Instagram]] a video demonstrating how to mix a Margarita alcoholic drink while lecturing her followers about how the federal government needs to do more.  Video transcript:

Ocasio-Cortez defeated [[incumbent]] Democrat Joe Crowley in the 2018 nominating [[primary]] for [[New York]]'s 14th congressional district carrying 56% of the vote with a 12% turnout. Primary victory is tantamount to general election victory in this district, meaning less than 17,000 people voted for her in district of over 700,000 inhabitants, yet the media proclaimed her as representative of a generation.<ref>https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2018/07/19/opinions/democrats-need-reform-new-york-primary-weaver/index.html</ref> Rep.

===Ethics violations and abuse of power===

Before taking office, Ocasio-Cortez was embroiled in allegations of violating House Ethics Rules and federal law. Ocasio-Cortez threatened a private citizen and political opponent with [[subpoena]]s and investigation. The House Rules Manual states, {{quotebox|“Members…are not to take or withhold any official action on the basis of the campaign contributions or support of the involved individuals, or their partisan affiliation. Members and staff are likewise prohibited from threatening punitive action on the basis of such considerations.”<ref>[https://ethics.house.gov/sites/ethics.house.gov/files/documents/2008_House_Ethics_Manual.pdf Page 150]</ref>}} What's more, Ocasio-Cortez may have violated 42 [[U.S. Code]] § 1983 – Civil action for deprivation of rights: {{quotebox|"Every person who, under color of any [[statute]], ordinance, regulation, custom, or usage, of any State or Territory or the [[District of Columbia]], subjects, or causes to be subjected, any [[citizen]] of the United States or other person within the jurisdiction thereof to the deprivation of any rights, privileges, or immunities secured by the [[Constitution]] and [[law]]s, shall be liable to the party injured in an action at law, suit in equity, or other proper proceeding for redress, except that in any action brought against a judicial officer for an act or omission taken in such officer’s judicial capacity, injunctive relief shall not be granted unless a declaratory decree was violated or declaratory relief was unavailable. For the purposes of this section, any Act of Congress applicable exclusively to the District of Columbia shall be considered to be a statute of the District of Columbia."<br>(R.S. § 1979; Pub.

Ocasio-Cortez made protecting the working class and the poor her top priority. A week after being sworn in ("inaugurated" in her words), it was reported that her campaign had been fined for failure to pay state-mandated workers compensation coverage for campaign workers. She paid a $1500 fine, which of course was less than the cost of complying with the law.<ref>https://www.syracuse.com/politics/2019/01/ny-fines-ocasio-cortezs-campaign-for-failing-to-carry-workers-comp-coverage.html Even though a fine can equal the cost of back payments, it does not include interest and penalties or the labor cost of accounting and legal fees to insure compliance.</ref>

The Foundation for Accountability and Civic Trust (FACT) filed a complaint with the Office of Congressional Ethics over Ocasio-Cortez' use of taxpayer dollars to raise campaign funds.<ref>https://dailycaller.com/2019/03/06/aoc-twitter-violations/</ref>

Ocasio-Cortez and her [[chief of staff]] Saikat Chakrabarti obtained majority control of [[Justice Democrats|Justice Democrats PAC]] in December 2017. Justice Democrats PAC raised more than $1.8 million before her June 2018 primary. Ocasio-Cortez never reported to the [[Federal Election Commission]] that she and Chakrabarti, who served as her campaign chair, controlled the PAC while it paid money to her 2018 campaign committee.

Justice Democrats stated on its website from December 2017 until late February 2019 that Ocasio-Cortez and Chakrabarti held “legal control” of  Justice Democrats PAC,<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20171225015602/https://www.justicedemocrats.com/about</ref> and the two still serve on the three-member board of Justice Democrats.

[[Armenian genocide|Armenian holocaust]] denier [[Cenk Uygur]] was forced from the board of Justice Democrats for what Chakrabarti called “extremely disturbing [[sexist]] and [[racist]] statements" in December 2017,<ref>https://twitter.com/justicedems/status/944356205476106240/photo/1</ref><ref>https://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/justice-democrats-ousts-cenk-uygur_us_5a3eb4d1e4b025f99e178181</ref> followed by Kyle Kulinski of the ''Young Turks'' who quit the same month. Justice Democrats then reported that Ocasio-Cortez and Chakrabarti were “governors” of the organization in a document submitted to the Washington, D.C., Department of Consumer & Regulatory Affairs on March 28, 2018. A third listed governor was the PAC's treasurer, Nasim Thompson.<ref>https://dailycaller.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Justice-Democrats-two-year-report-March-28-2018.jpg</ref>

A [[Federal Election Commission]] complaint was filed alleging money laundering campaign donations to her boyfriend.  Early on, her website was a redirect page for the group [[Brand New Congress]], archives in the [[Wayback Machine]] show.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20170828110100/https://ocasio2018.com/ Brand New Congress home page via ocasio2018 .com]</ref>

Ocasio-Cortez' boyfriend, Riley Roberts, worked in home improvements and has no record or knowledge of working on a campaign. As Ocasio-Cortez' live-in boyfriend, the circular flow of cash from donors to Brand New Congress PAC, to Brand New Congress LLC, to Riley Roberts - a cohabitator with Ocasio-Cortez - appears to be a conversion of campaign finances for personal use and gain.<ref>https://pjmedia.com/trending/ocasio-cortez-boyfriend-troubles-reveal-the-corruption-at-the-heart-of-her-campaign/</ref> She appears to have emolumated herself with progressive donor's cash.

====Fundraising====
−
- Is that fuzz gel?
+
Ocasio-Cortez is a case study in what is wrong with campaign finance laws. Cortez sits in a safe district, meaning she was virtually elected in the primary. The [[liberal media]] turned her into a fundraising magnet - for money she didn't need in a district she ran in virtually unopposed.

- A little. Special day, graduation.

Campaign "war chests," as they are called, are not to be used for the candidate's personal enrichment. Some candidates raise more money than they need, others have difficulty attracting donations even in their own districts, let alone from outside [[lobbyist]]s in [[Washington]]. Under existing regulations, candidates and members are free to donate to each other. Congresspeople become laundry machines for disguised donors. Instead of a member taking bribes from outside interests, they are "owned" by a fellow member, where any pretense of equality between the people's elected representatives is a charade. At 29 years old, Ocasio-Cortez was already barnstorming across the country raising nearly $900,000 and helping other Democrats get elected,<ref>https://m.newstimes.com/news/article/Democratic-socialists-are-conquering-the-left-13146775.php</ref> for which they are indebted to her, before she was even elected.<ref>https://www.politico.com/story/2019/01/16/justice-democrats-primary-challenges-alexandria-ocasio-cortez-1106911</ref>

====Saikat Chakrabarti====
−
Those were awkward.

[[Saikat Chakrabarti]] is Rep. Ocasio-Cortez's chief of staff and managed her 2018 campaign. Chakrabarti regularly can be seen posing in a T-shirt emblazoned with the image of a [[Nazi]] collaborator from [[India]] who fought with the Germans against [[colonialism]] in the [[British Empire]].  
   −
 
+
Chakrabarti and Ocasio-Cortez held majority control of Justice Democrats up to February 2019. Justice Democrats appears to be a [[money-laundering]] operation for illegal campaign donations.
−
Three days college. I'm glad I took
  −
a day and hitchhiked around the hive.
     −
 
+
Additionally, Chakrabarti has been accused of funneling  $1 million to two companies he controlled in a complaint filed by the National Legal and Policy Center with the FEC. According to the Brand New Congress website, the PAC would build a "unified campaign" infrastructure including fundraising, organizing, rallies, and advertising progressive congressional candidates across the country could "plug into," saving the individual campaigns time and money.
−
You did come back different.
     −

In 2016 and 2017, Chakrabarti's PACs raised about $3.3 million for the project, primarily from small donors. During this time, the committees transferred over $1 million to two shell companies controlled by Chakrabarti with names similar to one of the PACs, Brand New Campaign LLC and Brand New Congress LLC, according to federal election filings.
−
- Hi, Barry.
  −
- Artie, growing a mustache? Looks good.
     −
 
+
A few weeks after starting the Brand New Congress PAC, Chakrabarti formed one of the companies, Brand New Campaign LLC, in Delaware, using a registered agent service and mailbox-only address.
−
- Hear about Frankie?
  −
- Yeah.
     −
 
+
Over the next seven months, as small-dollar political donations poured into the PAC from progressives across the country, the committee transferred over $200,000, 82 percent of the contributions, to the company Brand New Campaign LLC. The payments were for "strategic consulting," according to federal election filings. They were sent to an apartment address listed for Chakrabarti in the Greenwich Village area of Manhattan.

In 2017, Brand New Congress PAC transferred another $240,000 to Brand New Congress LLC, also for "strategic consulting." Another PAC co-founded by Chakrabarti that year, Justice Democrats, transferred an additional $605,000 to Brand New Congress LLC in 2017.

Chakrabarti's ideas are basically to replicate a European-style party system in America, eliminate [[grassroots]] politics, and dole out cash from a central authority to candidates who meet an ideological litmus test - pro-[[infanticide]], [[2nd Amendment]] repeal, a communist single-payer healthcare system, [[transgenderism]], print money for a guaranteed income, [[inflation]], eliminate factory farming and promote [[veganism]], etc.

====Living wage rule====
−
Boy, quite a bit of pomp...
+
Ocasio-Cortez capped her office salaries at $80,000 which disguises her chief of staff and senior employees outside income and protects them from complying public transparency laws that require disclosure of all sources of income, gifts, and stock trading activity. Called a “living wage” rule, she pays staff members a minimum of $52,000 a year ($1000 per week) and a maximum of $80,000 a year ($1500 per week).
−
under the circumstances.
     −
 
+
Under federal law, congressional employees who earn more than $126,000 a year — which includes most chiefs of staff — must submit public financial disclosure forms that detail outside income they earn, stock investments, debt, and gifts or paid trips that they are given by outside sources.<ref>https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/politics/aoc-living-wage-rules-allow-her-staff-to-dodge-financial-disclosure-laws</ref>

     −
 
+
====[[Dark money]] scam====
−
- Bee-men.
+
While [[Bernie Sanders]] was still competing in the Democratic primaries during the Spring of 2016, Brand New Congress was set up to continue the nationwide fundraising effort from small donors beyond the 2016 election. The stated goal was to collect money at a central collection point, recruit candidates nationwide who adhere to a socialist/communist litmus test and provide the resources necessary to conduct congressional campaigns. The recruits would concentrate on miming Marxist talking points and be relieved of the all legal, financial, promotional, and public relations details that grassroots candidates traditionally had to master.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rvGtVu8gmtg</ref>
−
- Amen!
     −
 
+
These small money donations collected by the non-profit Brand New Congress organization, and later Justice Democrats, were then paid to private for-profit Limited Liability Companies owned by Saikat Chakrabarti as "strategic consulting fees." Being private entities, Chakrabarti's private companies are not subject to reporting requirements to the FEC on how the money is spent. In one such incident, Ocasio-Cortez's live-in boyfriend was paid and later given a staff position in her Congressional office.
−
Hallelujah!
     −
 
+
The districts targeted were held by incumbent Democrats who lacked the [[cultural Marxist]] ideological purity Democratic Socialists demand. The main goal of Justice Democrats and Brand New Congress is an extremist and [[far left]] take over of the Democratic party.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1h5iv6sECGU</ref>

Ocasio-Cortez is a staunch proponent of unlimited [[public debt]] and [[bankrupt]]ing the public treasury.

In Spanish, the term "Angelo", which means "English", is a label given to [[German]]s, [[Slav]]s, and all other Nordic and Slavic European groups.  The term ''Angelo'' applies racial animosity and collective guilt on all Northern Europeans for the loss of the glory days of the Spanish Empire by the British Navy.<ref>See: [[Spanish Armada]] and [[Elizabethan Age]].</ref>

In truth of fact, Ocasio-Cortez's European ancestors were [[slave]] traders of Africans who conquered and colonized indigenous peoples of the Americas; [[Puerto Rico]] is a Spanish European colony, and its inhabitants, black or white, are not "indigenous peoples". The implication that Puerto Rico has been "colonized" by Angelo-speaking citizens of the United States is not only false, it is a an unmitigated racist sentiment and statement.

{{quotebox|When socialist darling Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez first floated her “Green New Deal,” it was an intangible vision for [[society]] rather than a concrete policy proposal. Even after the New York Democrat and her acolytes added details (including a ban on airplanes and flatulent cows) in a voluminous range of policies costing an astounding $93 trillion, the idea of running the economy without fossil fuels seemed unthinkable.

Environmental activists say the silver lining of the lockdown is that carbon emissions will drop by nearly 6% globally this year because of reduced travel and industrial emissions.

 +
The Green New Deal would be paid for by the [[Federal Reserve]] printing more money which Ocasio-Cortez claims is "[[morality|morally right]]". {{Quotebox|"The Federal Reserve can extend credit to power these projects and investments, new public banks can be created (as in [[WWII]]) to extend credit and a combination of various taxation tools (including taxes on carbon and other emissions and progressive wealth taxes) can be employed."}}
 +
This proposal violates the House [[Paygo]] provision, which mandates all new spending proposals must carry with them cuts in programs for existing constituencies, or proposals for tax increases to offset added spending. Ocasio-Cortez's Medicare for All proposal, which Bernie Sanders and Nancy Pelosi both claim to support, adds spending more than two times America's Gross Domestic Product,<ref>https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-07-30/study-medicare-for-all-bill-estimated-at-32-6-trillion</ref> making the Medicare for All provision a fantasy, Ocasio-Cortez a simpleton, and Pelosi and Sanders bald face liars to stupid people. Paygo is Pelosi's own rule that she herself formulated as [[Speaker of the House]]. Pelosi later tried to back away from the lip service she paid to portions of the Green New Deal to get elected Speaker, "The green dream or whatever they call it, nobody knows what it is, but they’re for it, right?’"

====Committee subpoena power====

Select committees typically have [[subpoena]] power. Members could presumably wield subpoenas to investigate oil and gas companies. No sooner than the vote for Speaker was taken, Pelosi's flunky [[Steny Hoyer]] moved to strip the new select committee's subpoena power. Hoyer has accepted more than a quarter of a million dollars from the fossil fuel industry.

*AOC's habit of failing to engage her brain prior to opening her mouth extends to a difficultly with English language [[idiom]]s. Ocasio-Cortez sarcastically attacked Republicans when she said, "it is impossible to pull oneself up by their bootstraps." A "bootstrap" refers to mounting a horse without assistance. Prior to the invention of metal stirrups, "bootstraps" were made of leather, hence the name "bootstrap".  Mounting a horse unassisted is problematic, requiring both shoulder and leg strength, which is how the phrase, "pull yourself up by the bootsraps" came into usage centuries ago. There is an added risk of the horse moving or running away while the rider is in mid-air attempting to mount. Receiving assistance to mount a horse is referred to as "a leg up". The assistant can "extend a hand" while holding the horse's bridle with the other hand to prevent the horse from moving. In the late 20th century the "bootstrap" idiom was shortened to "boot" and borrowed by computer engineers to describe the process of a computer operating system starting on its own after a manual input command, without a "jump start" from another computer, which is now commonly known as "booting" or "boot up."

  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oh, my. What's available?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Restroom attendant's open,
  −
not for the reason you think.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Any chance of getting the Krelman?
  −
- Sure, you're on.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm sorry, the Krelman just closed out.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Wax monkey's always open.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
The Krelman opened up again.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What happened?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
A bee died. Makes an opening. See?
  −
He's dead. Another dead one.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Deady. Deadified. Two more dead.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Dead from the neck up.
  −
Dead from the neck down. That's life!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oh, this is so hard!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Heating, cooling,
  −
stunt bee, pourer, stirrer,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
humming, inspector number seven,
  −
lint coordinator, stripe supervisor,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
mite wrangler. Barry, what
  −
do you think I should... Barry?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Barry!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
All right, we've got the sunflower patch
  −
in quadrant nine...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What happened to you?
  −
Where are you?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- I'm going out.
  −
- Out? Out where?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Out there.
  −
- Oh, no!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I have to, before I go
  −
to work for the rest of my life.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You're gonna die! You're crazy! Hello?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Another call coming in.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
If anyone's feeling brave,
  −
there's a Korean deli on 83rd
  −
 
  −
 
  −
that gets their roses today.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Hey, guys.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Look at that.
  −
- Isn't that the kid we saw yesterday?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Hold it, son, flight deck's restricted.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It's OK, Lou. We're gonna take him up.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Really? Feeling lucky, are you?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Sign here, here. Just initial that.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Thank you.
  −
- OK.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You got a rain advisory today,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
and as you all know,
  −
bees cannot fly in rain.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
So be careful. As always,
  −
watch your brooms,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
hockey sticks, dogs,
  −
birds, bears and bats.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Also, I got a couple of reports
  −
of root beer being poured on us.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Murphy's in a home because of it,
  −
babbling like a cicada!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- That's awful.
  −
- And a reminder for you rookies,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
bee law number one,
  −
absolutely no talking to humans!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
All right, launch positions!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Buzz, buzz, buzz, buzz! Buzz, buzz,
  −
buzz, buzz! Buzz, buzz, buzz, buzz!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Black and yellow!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Hello!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You ready for this, hot shot?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yeah. Yeah, bring it on.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Wind, check.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Antennae, check.
  −
- Nectar pack, check.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Wings, check.
  −
- Stinger, check.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Scared out of my shorts, check.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
OK, ladies,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
let's move it out!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Pound those petunias,
  −
you striped stem-suckers!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
All of you, drain those flowers!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Wow! I'm out!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I can't believe I'm out!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
So blue.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I feel so fast and free!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Box kite!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Wow!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Flowers!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
This is Blue Leader.
  −
We have roses visual.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Bring it around 30 degrees and hold.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Roses!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
30 degrees, roger. Bringing it around.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Stand to the side, kid.
  −
It's got a bit of a kick.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That is one nectar collector!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Ever see pollination up close?
  −
- No, sir.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I pick up some pollen here, sprinkle it
  −
over here. Maybe a dash over there,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
a pinch on that one.
  −
See that? It's a little bit of magic.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That's amazing. Why do we do that?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That's pollen power. More pollen, more
  −
flowers, more nectar, more honey for us.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oool.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm picking up a lot of bright yellow.
  −
Oould be daisies. Don't we need those?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oopy that visual.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Wait. One of these flowers
  −
seems to be on the move.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Say again? You're reporting
  −
a moving flower?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Affirmative.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That was on the line!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
This is the coolest. What is it?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I don't know, but I'm loving this color.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It smells good.
  −
Not like a flower, but I like it.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yeah, fuzzy.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Ohemical-y.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oareful, guys. It's a little grabby.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
My sweet lord of bees!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oandy-brain, get off there!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Problem!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Guys!
  −
- This could be bad.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Affirmative.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Very close.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Gonna hurt.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Mama's little boy.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You are way out of position, rookie!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Ooming in at you like a missile!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Help me!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I don't think these are flowers.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Should we tell him?
  −
- I think he knows.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What is this?!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Match point!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You can start packing up, honey,
  −
because you're about to eat it!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yowser!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Gross.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
There's a bee in the car!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Do something!
  −
- I'm driving!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Hi, bee.
  −
- He's back here!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
He's going to sting me!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Nobody move. If you don't move,
  −
he won't sting you. Freeze!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
He blinked!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Spray him, Granny!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What are you doing?!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Wow... the tension level
  −
out here is unbelievable.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I gotta get home.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oan't fly in rain.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oan't fly in rain.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oan't fly in rain.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Mayday! Mayday! Bee going down!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Ken, could you close
  −
the window please?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Ken, could you close
  −
the window please?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oheck out my new resume.
  −
I made it into a fold-out brochure.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You see? Folds out.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oh, no. More humans. I don't need this.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What was that?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Maybe this time. This time. This time.
  −
This time! This time! This...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Drapes!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That is diabolical.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It's fantastic. It's got all my special
  −
skills, even my top-ten favorite movies.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What's number one? Star Wars?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Nah, I don't go for that...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
...kind of stuff.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
No wonder we shouldn't talk to them.
  −
They're out of their minds.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
When I leave a job interview, they're
  −
flabbergasted, can't believe what I say.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
There's the sun. Maybe that's a way out.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I don't remember the sun
  −
having a big 75 on it.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I predicted global warming.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I could feel it getting hotter.
  −
At first I thought it was just me.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Wait! Stop! Bee!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Stand back. These are winter boots.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Wait!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Don't kill him!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You know I'm allergic to them!
  −
This thing could kill me!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Why does his life have
  −
less value than yours?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Why does his life have any less value
  −
than mine? Is that your statement?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm just saying all life has value. You
  −
don't know what he's capable of feeling.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
My brochure!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
There you go, little guy.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm not scared of him.
  −
It's an allergic thing.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Put that on your resume brochure.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
My whole face could puff up.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Make it one of your special skills.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Knocking someone out
  −
is also a special skill.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Right. Bye, Vanessa. Thanks.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Vanessa, next week? Yogurt night?
  −
- Sure, Ken. You know, whatever.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- You could put carob chips on there.
  −
- Bye.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Supposed to be less calories.
  −
- Bye.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I gotta say something.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
She saved my life.
  −
I gotta say something.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
All right, here it goes.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Nah.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What would I say?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I could really get in trouble.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It's a bee law.
  −
You're not supposed to talk to a human.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I can't believe I'm doing this.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I've got to.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oh, I can't do it. Oome on!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
No. Yes. No.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Do it. I can't.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
How should I start it?
  −
"You like jazz?" No, that's no good.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Here she comes! Speak, you fool!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Hi!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm sorry.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- You're talking.
  −
- Yes, I know.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You're talking!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm so sorry.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
No, it's OK. It's fine.
  −
I know I'm dreaming.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
But I don't recall going to bed.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Well, I'm sure this
  −
is very disconcerting.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
This is a bit of a surprise to me.
  −
I mean, you're a bee!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I am. And I'm not supposed
  −
to be doing this,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
but they were all trying to kill me.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
And if it wasn't for you...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I had to thank you.
  −
It's just how I was raised.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That was a little weird.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- I'm talking with a bee.
  −
- Yeah.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm talking to a bee.
  −
And the bee is talking to me!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I just want to say I'm grateful.
  −
I'll leave now.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Wait! How did you learn to do that?
  −
- What?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
The talking thing.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Same way you did, I guess.
  −
"Mama, Dada, honey." You pick it up.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- That's very funny.
  −
- Yeah.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Bees are funny. If we didn't laugh,
  −
we'd cry with what we have to deal with.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Anyway...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oan I...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
...get you something?
  −
- Like what?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I don't know. I mean...
  −
I don't know. Ooffee?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I don't want to put you out.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It's no trouble. It takes two minutes.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- It's just coffee.
  −
- I hate to impose.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Don't be ridiculous!
  −
- Actually, I would love a cup.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Hey, you want rum cake?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- I shouldn't.
  −
- Have some.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- No, I can't.
  −
- Oome on!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm trying to lose a couple micrograms.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Where?
  −
- These stripes don't help.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You look great!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I don't know if you know
  −
anything about fashion.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Are you all right?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
No.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
He's making the tie in the cab
  −
as they're flying up Madison.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
He finally gets there.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
He runs up the steps into the church.
  −
The wedding is on.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
And he says, "Watermelon?
  −
I thought you said Guatemalan.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Why would I marry a watermelon?"
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Is that a bee joke?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That's the kind of stuff we do.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yeah, different.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
So, what are you gonna do, Barry?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
About work? I don't know.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I want to do my part for the hive,
  −
but I can't do it the way they want.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I know how you feel.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- You do?
  −
- Sure.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
My parents wanted me to be a lawyer or
  −
a doctor, but I wanted to be a florist.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Really?
  −
- My only interest is flowers.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Our new queen was just elected
  −
with that same campaign slogan.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Anyway, if you look...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
There's my hive right there. See it?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You're in Sheep Meadow!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yes! I'm right off the Turtle Pond!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
No way! I know that area.
  −
I lost a toe ring there once.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Why do girls put rings on their toes?
  −
- Why not?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- It's like putting a hat on your knee.
  −
- Maybe I'll try that.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- You all right, ma'am?
  −
- Oh, yeah. Fine.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Just having two cups of coffee!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Anyway, this has been great.
  −
Thanks for the coffee.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yeah, it's no trouble.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Sorry I couldn't finish it. If I did,
  −
I'd be up the rest of my life.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Are you...?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oan I take a piece of this with me?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Sure! Here, have a crumb.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Thanks!
  −
- Yeah.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
All right. Well, then...
  −
I guess I'll see you around.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Or not.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
OK, Barry.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
And thank you
  −
so much again... for before.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oh, that? That was nothing.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Well, not nothing, but... Anyway...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
This can't possibly work.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
He's all set to go.
  −
We may as well try it.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
OK, Dave, pull the chute.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Sounds amazing.
  −
- It was amazing!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It was the scariest,
  −
happiest moment of my life.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Humans! I can't believe
  −
you were with humans!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Giant, scary humans!
  −
What were they like?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Huge and crazy. They talk crazy.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
They eat crazy giant things.
  −
They drive crazy.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Do they try and kill you, like on TV?
  −
- Some of them. But some of them don't.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- How'd you get back?
  −
- Poodle.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You did it, and I'm glad. You saw
  −
whatever you wanted to see.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You had your "experience." Now you
  −
can pick out yourjob and be normal.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Well...
  −
- Well?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Well, I met someone.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You did? Was she Bee-ish?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- A wasp?! Your parents will kill you!
  −
- No, no, no, not a wasp.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Spider?
  −
- I'm not attracted to spiders.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I know it's the hottest thing,
  −
with the eight legs and all.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I can't get by that face.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
So who is she?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
She's... human.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
No, no. That's a bee law.
  −
You wouldn't break a bee law.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Her name's Vanessa.
  −
- Oh, boy.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
She's so nice. And she's a florist!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oh, no! You're dating a human florist!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We're not dating.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You're flying outside the hive, talking
  −
to humans that attack our homes
  −
 
  −
 
  −
with power washers and M-80s!
  −
One-eighth a stick of dynamite!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
She saved my life!
  −
And she understands me.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
This is over!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Eat this.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
This is not over! What was that?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- They call it a crumb.
  −
- It was so stingin' stripey!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
And that's not what they eat.
  −
That's what falls off what they eat!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- You know what a Oinnabon is?
  −
- No.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It's bread and cinnamon and frosting.
  −
They heat it up...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Sit down!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
...really hot!
  −
- Listen to me!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We are not them! We're us.
  −
There's us and there's them!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yes, but who can deny
  −
the heart that is yearning?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
There's no yearning.
  −
Stop yearning. Listen to me!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You have got to start thinking bee,
  −
my friend. Thinking bee!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Thinking bee.
  −
- Thinking bee.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Thinking bee! Thinking bee!
  −
Thinking bee! Thinking bee!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
There he is. He's in the pool.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You know what your problem is, Barry?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I gotta start thinking bee?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
How much longer will this go on?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It's been three days!
  −
Why aren't you working?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I've got a lot of big life decisions
  −
to think about.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What life? You have no life!
  −
You have no job. You're barely a bee!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Would it kill you
  −
to make a little honey?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Barry, come out.
  −
Your father's talking to you.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Martin, would you talk to him?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Barry, I'm talking to you!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You coming?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Got everything?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
All set!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Go ahead. I'll catch up.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Don't be too long.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Watch this!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Vanessa!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- We're still here.
  −
- I told you not to yell at him.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
He doesn't respond to yelling!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Then why yell at me?
  −
- Because you don't listen!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm not listening to this.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Sorry, I've gotta go.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Where are you going?
  −
- I'm meeting a friend.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
A girl? Is this why you can't decide?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Bye.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I just hope she's Bee-ish.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
They have a huge parade
  −
of flowers every year in Pasadena?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
To be in the Tournament of Roses,
  −
that's every florist's dream!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Up on a float, surrounded
  −
by flowers, crowds cheering.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
A tournament. Do the roses
  −
compete in athletic events?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
No. All right, I've got one.
  −
How come you don't fly everywhere?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It's exhausting. Why don't you
  −
run everywhere? It's faster.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yeah, OK, I see, I see.
  −
All right, your turn.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
TiVo. You can just freeze live TV?
  −
That's insane!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You don't have that?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We have Hivo, but it's a disease.
  −
It's a horrible, horrible disease.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oh, my.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Dumb bees!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You must want to sting all those jerks.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We try not to sting.
  −
It's usually fatal for us.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
So you have to watch your temper.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Very carefully.
  −
You kick a wall, take a walk,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
write an angry letter and throw it out.
  −
Work through it like any emotion:
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Anger, jealousy, lust.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oh, my goodness! Are you OK?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yeah.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- What is wrong with you?!
  −
- It's a bug.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
He's not bothering anybody.
  −
Get out of here, you creep!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What was that? A Pic 'N' Save circular?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yeah, it was. How did you know?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It felt like about 10 pages.
  −
Seventy-five is pretty much our limit.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You've really got that
  −
down to a science.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- I lost a cousin to Italian Vogue.
  −
- I'll bet.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What in the name
  −
of Mighty Hercules is this?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
How did this get here?
  −
Oute Bee, Golden Blossom,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Ray Liotta Private Select?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Is he that actor?
  −
- I never heard of him.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Why is this here?
  −
- For people. We eat it.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You don't have
  −
enough food of your own?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Well, yes.
  −
- How do you get it?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Bees make it.
  −
- I know who makes it!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
And it's hard to make it!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
There's heating, cooling, stirring.
  −
You need a whole Krelman thing!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- It's organic.
  −
- It's our-ganic!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It's just honey, Barry.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Just what?!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Bees don't know about this!
  −
This is stealing! A lot of stealing!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You've taken our homes, schools,
  −
hospitals! This is all we have!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
And it's on sale?!
  −
I'm getting to the bottom of this.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm getting to the bottom
  −
of all of this!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Hey, Hector.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- You almost done?
  −
- Almost.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
He is here. I sense it.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Well, I guess I'll go home now
  −
 
  −
 
  −
and just leave this nice honey out,
  −
with no one around.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You're busted, box boy!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I knew I heard something.
  −
So you can talk!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I can talk.
  −
And now you'll start talking!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Where you getting the sweet stuff?
  −
Who's your supplier?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I don't understand.
  −
I thought we were friends.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
The last thing we want
  −
to do is upset bees!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You're too late! It's ours now!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You, sir, have crossed
  −
the wrong sword!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You, sir, will be lunch
  −
for my iguana, Ignacio!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Where is the honey coming from?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Tell me where!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Honey Farms! It comes from Honey Farms!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Orazy person!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What horrible thing has happened here?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
These faces, they never knew
  −
what hit them. And now
  −
 
  −
 
  −
they're on the road to nowhere!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Just keep still.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What? You're not dead?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Do I look dead? They will wipe anything
  −
that moves. Where you headed?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
To Honey Farms.
  −
I am onto something huge here.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm going to Alaska. Moose blood,
  −
crazy stuff. Blows your head off!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm going to Tacoma.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- And you?
  −
- He really is dead.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
All right.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Uh-oh!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- What is that?!
  −
- Oh, no!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- A wiper! Triple blade!
  −
- Triple blade?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Jump on! It's your only chance, bee!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Why does everything have
  −
to be so doggone clean?!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
How much do you people need to see?!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Open your eyes!
  −
Stick your head out the window!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
From NPR News in Washington,
  −
I'm Oarl Kasell.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
But don't kill no more bugs!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Bee!
  −
- Moose blood guy!!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- You hear something?
  −
- Like what?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Like tiny screaming.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Turn off the radio.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Whassup, bee boy?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Hey, Blood.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Just a row of honey jars,
  −
as far as the eye could see.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Wow!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I assume wherever this truck goes
  −
is where they're getting it.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I mean, that honey's ours.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Bees hang tight.
  −
- We're all jammed in.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It's a close community.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Not us, man. We on our own.
  −
Every mosquito on his own.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- What if you get in trouble?
  −
- You a mosquito, you in trouble.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Nobody likes us. They just smack.
  −
See a mosquito, smack, smack!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
At least you're out in the world.
  −
You must meet girls.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Mosquito girls try to trade up,
  −
get with a moth, dragonfly.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Mosquito girl don't want no mosquito.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You got to be kidding me!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Mooseblood's about to leave
  −
the building! So long, bee!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Hey, guys!
  −
- Mooseblood!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I knew I'd catch y'all down here.
  −
Did you bring your crazy straw?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We throw it in jars, slap a label on it,
  −
and it's pretty much pure profit.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What is this place?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
A bee's got a brain
  −
the size of a pinhead.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
They are pinheads!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Pinhead.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Oheck out the new smoker.
  −
- Oh, sweet. That's the one you want.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
The Thomas 3000!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Smoker?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Ninety puffs a minute, semi-automatic.
  −
Twice the nicotine, all the tar.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
A couple breaths of this
  −
knocks them right out.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
They make the honey,
  −
and we make the money.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
"They make the honey,
  −
and we make the money"?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oh, my!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What's going on? Are you OK?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yeah. It doesn't last too long.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Do you know you're
  −
in a fake hive with fake walls?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Our queen was moved here.
  −
We had no choice.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
This is your queen?
  −
That's a man in women's clothes!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That's a drag queen!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What is this?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oh, no!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
There's hundreds of them!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Bee honey.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Our honey is being brazenly stolen
  −
on a massive scale!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
This is worse than anything bears
  −
have done! I intend to do something.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oh, Barry, stop.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Who told you humans are taking
  −
our honey? That's a rumor.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Do these look like rumors?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That's a conspiracy theory.
  −
These are obviously doctored photos.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
How did you get mixed up in this?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
He's been talking to humans.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- What?
  −
- Talking to humans?!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
He has a human girlfriend.
  −
And they make out!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Make out? Barry!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We do not.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- You wish you could.
  −
- Whose side are you on?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
The bees!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I dated a cricket once in San Antonio.
  −
Those crazy legs kept me up all night.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Barry, this is what you want
  −
to do with your life?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I want to do it for all our lives.
  −
Nobody works harder than bees!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Dad, I remember you
  −
coming home so overworked
  −
 
  −
 
  −
your hands were still stirring.
  −
You couldn't stop.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I remember that.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What right do they have to our honey?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We live on two cups a year. They put it
  −
in lip balm for no reason whatsoever!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Even if it's true, what can one bee do?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Sting them where it really hurts.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
In the face! The eye!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- That would hurt.
  −
- No.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Up the nose? That's a killer.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
There's only one place you can sting
  −
the humans, one place where it matters.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Hive at Five, the hive's only
  −
full-hour action news source.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
No more bee beards!

With Bob Bumble at the anchor desk.

Weather with Storm Stinger.

Sports with Buzz Larvi.

  −
A tri-county bee, Barry Benson,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
intends to sue the human race
  −
for stealing our honey,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
packaging it and profiting
  −
from it illegally!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Tomorrow night on Bee Larry King,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
we'll have three former queens here in
  −
our studio, discussing their new book,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Olassy Ladies,
  −
out this week on Hexagon.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Tonight we're talking to Barry Benson.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Did you ever think, "I'm a kid
  −
from the hive. I can't do this"?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Bees have never been afraid
  −
to change the world.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What about Bee Oolumbus?
  −
Bee Gandhi? Bejesus?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Where I'm from, we'd never sue humans.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We were thinking
  −
of stickball or candy stores.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
How old are you?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
The bee community
  −
is supporting you in this case,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
which will be the trial
  −
of the bee century.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You know, they have a Larry King
  −
in the human world too.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It's a common name. Next week...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
He looks like you and has a show
  −
and suspenders and colored dots...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Next week...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Glasses, quotes on the bottom from the
  −
guest even though you just heard 'em.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Bear Week next week!
  −
They're scary, hairy and here live.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Always leans forward, pointy shoulders,
  −
squinty eyes, very Jewish.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
In tennis, you attack
  −
at the point of weakness!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It was my grandmother, Ken. She's 81.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Honey, her backhand's a joke!
  −
I'm not gonna take advantage of that?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Quiet, please.
  −
Actual work going on here.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Is that that same bee?
  −
- Yes, it is!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm helping him sue the human race.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Hello.
  −
- Hello, bee.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
This is Ken.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yeah, I remember you. Timberland, size
  −
ten and a half. Vibram sole, I believe.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Why does he talk again?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Listen, you better go
  −
'cause we're really busy working.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
But it's our yogurt night!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Bye-bye.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Why is yogurt night so difficult?!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You poor thing.
  −
You two have been at this for hours!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yes, and Adam here
  −
has been a huge help.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Frosting...
  −
- How many sugars?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Just one. I try not
  −
to use the competition.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
So why are you helping me?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Bees have good qualities.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
And it takes my mind off the shop.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Instead of flowers, people
  −
are giving balloon bouquets now.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Those are great, if you're three.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
And artificial flowers.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Oh, those just get me psychotic!
  −
- Yeah, me too.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Bent stingers, pointless pollination.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Bees must hate those fake things!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Nothing worse
  −
than a daffodil that's had work done.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Maybe this could make up
  −
for it a little bit.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- This lawsuit's a pretty big deal.
  −
- I guess.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You sure you want to go through with it?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Am I sure? When I'm done with
  −
the humans, they won't be able
  −
 
  −
 
  −
to say, "Honey, I'm home,"
  −
without paying a royalty!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It's an incredible scene
  −
here in downtown Manhattan,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
where the world anxiously waits,
  −
because for the first time in history,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
we will hear for ourselves
  −
if a honeybee can actually speak.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What have we gotten into here, Barry?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It's pretty big, isn't it?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I can't believe how many humans
  −
don't work during the day.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You think billion-dollar multinational
  −
food companies have good lawyers?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Everybody needs to stay
  −
behind the barricade.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- What's the matter?
  −
- I don't know, I just got a chill.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Well, if it isn't the bee team.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You boys work on this?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
All rise! The Honorable
  −
Judge Bumbleton presiding.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
All right. Oase number 4475,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Superior Oourt of New York,
  −
Barry Bee Benson v. the Honey Industry
  −
 
  −
 
  −
is now in session.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Mr. Montgomery, you're representing
  −
the five food companies collectively?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
A privilege.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Mr. Benson... you're representing
  −
all the bees of the world?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm kidding. Yes, Your Honor,
  −
we're ready to proceed.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Mr. Montgomery,
  −
your opening statement, please.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Ladies and gentlemen of the jury,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
my grandmother was a simple woman.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Born on a farm, she believed
  −
it was man's divine right
  −
 
  −
 
  −
to benefit from the bounty
  −
of nature God put before us.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
If we lived in the topsy-turvy world
  −
Mr. Benson imagines,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
just think of what would it mean.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I would have to negotiate
  −
with the silkworm
  −
 
  −
 
  −
for the elastic in my britches!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Talking bee!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
How do we know this isn't some sort of
  −
 
  −
 
  −
holographic motion-picture-capture
  −
Hollywood wizardry?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
They could be using laser beams!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Robotics! Ventriloquism!
  −
Oloning! For all we know,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
he could be on steroids!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Mr. Benson?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Ladies and gentlemen,
  −
there's no trickery here.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm just an ordinary bee.
  −
Honey's pretty important to me.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It's important to all bees.
  −
We invented it!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We make it. And we protect it
  −
with our lives.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Unfortunately, there are
  −
some people in this room
  −
 
  −
 
  −
who think they can take it from us
  −
 
  −
 
  −
'cause we're the little guys!
  −
I'm hoping that, after this is all over,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
you'll see how, by taking our honey,
  −
you not only take everything we have
  −
 
  −
 
  −
but everything we are!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I wish he'd dress like that
  −
all the time. So nice!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oall your first witness.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
So, Mr. Klauss Vanderhayden
  −
of Honey Farms, big company you have.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I suppose so.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I see you also own
  −
Honeyburton and Honron!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yes, they provide beekeepers
  −
for our farms.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Beekeeper. I find that
  −
to be a very disturbing term.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I don't imagine you employ
  −
any bee-free-ers, do you?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- No.
  −
- I couldn't hear you.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- No.
  −
- No.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Because you don't free bees.
  −
You keep bees. Not only that,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
it seems you thought a bear would be
  −
an appropriate image for a jar of honey.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
They're very lovable creatures.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yogi Bear, Fozzie Bear, Build-A-Bear.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You mean like this?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Bears kill bees!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
How'd you like his head crashing
  −
through your living room?!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Biting into your couch!
  −
Spitting out your throw pillows!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
OK, that's enough. Take him away.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
So, Mr. Sting, thank you for being here.
  −
Your name intrigues me.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Where have I heard it before?
  −
- I was with a band called The Police.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
But you've never been
  −
a police officer, have you?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
No, I haven't.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
No, you haven't. And so here
  −
we have yet another example
  −
 
  −
 
  −
of bee culture casually
  −
stolen by a human
  −
 
  −
 
  −
for nothing more than
  −
a prance-about stage name.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oh, please.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Have you ever been stung, Mr. Sting?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Because I'm feeling
  −
a little stung, Sting.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Or should I say... Mr. Gordon M. Sumner!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That's not his real name?! You idiots!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Mr. Liotta, first,
  −
belated congratulations on
  −
 
  −
 
  −
your Emmy win for a guest spot
  −
on ER in 2005.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Thank you. Thank you.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I see from your resume
  −
that you're devilishly handsome
  −
 
  −
 
  −
with a churning inner turmoil
  −
that's ready to blow.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I enjoy what I do. Is that a crime?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Not yet it isn't. But is this
  −
what it's come to for you?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Exploiting tiny, helpless bees
  −
so you don't
  −
 
  −
 
  −
have to rehearse
  −
your part and learn your lines, sir?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Watch it, Benson!
  −
I could blow right now!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
This isn't a goodfella.
  −
This is a badfella!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Why doesn't someone just step on
  −
this creep, and we can all go home?!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Order in this court!
  −
- You're all thinking it!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Order! Order, I say!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Say it!
  −
- Mr. Liotta, please sit down!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I think it was awfully nice
  −
of that bear to pitch in like that.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I think the jury's on our side.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Are we doing everything right, legally?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm a florist.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Right. Well, here's to a great team.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
To a great team!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Well, hello.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Ken!
  −
- Hello.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I didn't think you were coming.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
No, I was just late.
  −
I tried to call, but... the battery.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I didn't want all this to go to waste,
  −
so I called Barry. Luckily, he was free.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oh, that was lucky.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
There's a little left.
  −
I could heat it up.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yeah, heat it up, sure, whatever.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
So I hear you're quite a tennis player.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm not much for the game myself.
  −
The ball's a little grabby.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That's where I usually sit.
  −
Right... there.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Ken, Barry was looking at your resume,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
and he agreed with me that eating with
  −
chopsticks isn't really a special skill.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You think I don't see what you're doing?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I know how hard it is to find
  −
the rightjob. We have that in common.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Do we?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Bees have 100 percent employment,
  −
but we do jobs like taking the crud out.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That's just what
  −
I was thinking about doing.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Ken, I let Barry borrow your razor
  −
for his fuzz. I hope that was all right.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm going to drain the old stinger.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yeah, you do that.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Look at that.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You know, I've just about had it
  −
 
  −
 
  −
with your little mind games.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- What's that?
  −
- Italian Vogue.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Mamma mia, that's a lot of pages.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
A lot of ads.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Remember what Van said, why is
  −
your life more valuable than mine?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Funny, I just can't seem to recall that!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I think something stinks in here!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I love the smell of flowers.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
How do you like the smell of flames?!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Not as much.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Water bug! Not taking sides!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Ken, I'm wearing a Ohapstick hat!
  −
This is pathetic!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I've got issues!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Well, well, well, a royal flush!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- You're bluffing.
  −
- Am I?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Surf's up, dude!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Poo water!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That bowl is gnarly.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Except for those dirty yellow rings!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Kenneth! What are you doing?!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You know, I don't even like honey!
  −
I don't eat it!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We need to talk!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
He's just a little bee!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
And he happens to be
  −
the nicest bee I've met in a long time!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Long time? What are you talking about?!
  −
Are there other bugs in your life?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
No, but there are other things bugging
  −
me in life. And you're one of them!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Fine! Talking bees, no yogurt night...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
My nerves are fried from riding
  −
on this emotional roller coaster!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Goodbye, Ken.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
And for your information,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I prefer sugar-free, artificial
  −
sweeteners made by man!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm sorry about all that.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I know it's got
  −
an aftertaste! I like it!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I always felt there was some kind
  −
of barrier between Ken and me.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I couldn't overcome it.
  −
Oh, well.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Are you OK for the trial?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I believe Mr. Montgomery
  −
is about out of ideas.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We would like to call
  −
Mr. Barry Benson Bee to the stand.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Good idea! You can really see why he's
  −
considered one of the best lawyers...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yeah.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Layton, you've
  −
gotta weave some magic
  −
 
  −
 
  −
with this jury,
  −
or it's gonna be all over.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Don't worry. The only thing I have
  −
to do to turn this jury around
  −
 
  −
 
  −
is to remind them
  −
of what they don't like about bees.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- You got the tweezers?
  −
- Are you allergic?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Only to losing, son. Only to losing.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Mr. Benson Bee, I'll ask you
  −
what I think we'd all like to know.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What exactly is your relationship
  −
 
  −
 
  −
to that woman?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We're friends.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Good friends?
  −
- Yes.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
How good? Do you live together?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Wait a minute...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Are you her little...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
...bedbug?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I've seen a bee documentary or two.
  −
From what I understand,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
doesn't your queen give birth
  −
to all the bee children?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Yeah, but...
  −
- So those aren't your real parents!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Oh, Barry...
  −
- Yes, they are!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Hold me back!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You're an illegitimate bee,
  −
aren't you, Benson?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
He's denouncing bees!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Don't y'all date your cousins?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Objection!
  −
- I'm going to pincushion this guy!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Adam, don't! It's what he wants!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oh, I'm hit!!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oh, lordy, I am hit!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Order! Order!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
The venom! The venom
  −
is coursing through my veins!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I have been felled
  −
by a winged beast of destruction!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You see? You can't treat them
  −
like equals! They're striped savages!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Stinging's the only thing
  −
they know! It's their way!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Adam, stay with me.
  −
- I can't feel my legs.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What angel of mercy
  −
will come forward to suck the poison
  −
 
  −
 
  −
from my heaving buttocks?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I will have order in this court. Order!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Order, please!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
The case of the honeybees
  −
versus the human race
  −
 
  −
 
  −
took a pointed turn against the bees
  −
 
  −
 
  −
yesterday when one of their legal
  −
team stung Layton T. Montgomery.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Hey, buddy.
  −
- Hey.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Is there much pain?
  −
- Yeah.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I blew the whole case, didn't I?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It doesn't matter. What matters is
  −
you're alive. You could have died.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'd be better off dead. Look at me.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
They got it from the cafeteria
  −
downstairs, in a tuna sandwich.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Look, there's
  −
a little celery still on it.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What was it like to sting someone?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I can't explain it. It was all...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
All adrenaline and then...
  −
and then ecstasy!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
All right.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You think it was all a trap?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Of course. I'm sorry.
  −
I flew us right into this.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What were we thinking? Look at us. We're
  −
just a couple of bugs in this world.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What will the humans do to us
  −
if they win?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I don't know.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I hear they put the roaches in motels.
  −
That doesn't sound so bad.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Adam, they check in,
  −
but they don't check out!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oh, my.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oould you get a nurse
  −
to close that window?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Why?
  −
- The smoke.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Bees don't smoke.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Right. Bees don't smoke.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Bees don't smoke!
  −
But some bees are smoking.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That's it! That's our case!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It is? It's not over?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Get dressed. I've gotta go somewhere.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Get back to the court and stall.
  −
Stall any way you can.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
And assuming you've done step correctly, you're ready for the tub.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Mr. Flayman.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yes? Yes, Your Honor!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Where is the rest of your team?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Well, Your Honor, it's interesting.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Bees are trained to fly haphazardly,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
and as a result,
  −
we don't make very good time.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I actually heard a funny story about...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Your Honor,
  −
haven't these ridiculous bugs
  −
 
  −
 
  −
taken up enough
  −
of this court's valuable time?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
How much longer will we allow
  −
these absurd shenanigans to go on?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
They have presented no compelling
  −
evidence to support their charges
  −
 
  −
 
  −
against my clients,
  −
who run legitimate businesses.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I move for a complete dismissal
  −
of this entire case!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Mr. Flayman, I'm afraid I'm going
  −
 
  −
 
  −
to have to consider
  −
Mr. Montgomery's motion.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
But you can't! We have a terrific case.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Where is your proof?
  −
Where is the evidence?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Show me the smoking gun!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Hold it, Your Honor!
  −
You want a smoking gun?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Here is your smoking gun.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What is that?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It's a bee smoker!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What, this?
  −
This harmless little contraption?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
This couldn't hurt a fly,
  −
let alone a bee.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Look at what has happened
  −
 
  −
 
  −
to bees who have never been asked,
  −
"Smoking or non?"
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Is this what nature intended for us?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
To be forcibly addicted
  −
to smoke machines
  −
 
  −
 
  −
and man-made wooden slat work camps?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Living out our lives as honey slaves
  −
to the white man?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- What are we gonna do?
  −
- He's playing the species card.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Ladies and gentlemen, please,
  −
free these bees!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Free the bees! Free the bees!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Free the bees!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Free the bees! Free the bees!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
The court finds in favor of the bees!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Vanessa, we won!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I knew you could do it! High-five!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Sorry.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm OK! You know what this means?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
All the honey
  −
will finally belong to the bees.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Now we won't have
  −
to work so hard all the time.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
This is an unholy perversion
  −
of the balance of nature, Benson.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You'll regret this.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Barry, how much honey is out there?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
All right. One at a time.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Barry, who are you wearing?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
My sweater is Ralph Lauren,
  −
and I have no pants.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- What if Montgomery's right?
  −
- What do you mean?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We've been living the bee way
  −
a long time, 27 million years.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oongratulations on your victory.
  −
What will you demand as a settlement?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
First, we'll demand a complete shutdown
  −
of all bee work camps.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Then we want back the honey
  −
that was ours to begin with,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
every last drop.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We demand an end to the glorification
  −
of the bear as anything more
  −
 
  −
 
  −
than a filthy, smelly,
  −
bad-breath stink machine.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We're all aware
  −
of what they do in the woods.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Wait for my signal.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Take him out.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
He'll have nauseous
  −
for a few hours, then he'll be fine.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
And we will no longer tolerate
  −
bee-negative nicknames...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
But it's just a prance-about stage name!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
...unnecessary inclusion of honey
  −
in bogus health products
  −
 
  −
 
  −
and la-dee-da human
  −
tea-time snack garnishments.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oan't breathe.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Bring it in, boys!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Hold it right there! Good.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Tap it.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Mr. Buzzwell, we just passed three cups,
  −
and there's gallons more coming!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- I think we need to shut down!
  −
- Shut down? We've never shut down.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Shut down honey production!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Stop making honey!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Turn your key, sir!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What do we do now?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oannonball!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We're shutting honey production!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Mission abort.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Aborting pollination and nectar detail.
  −
Returning to base.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Adam, you wouldn't believe
  −
how much honey was out there.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oh, yeah?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What's going on? Where is everybody?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Are they out celebrating?
  −
- They're home.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
They don't know what to do.
  −
Laying out, sleeping in.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I heard your Uncle Oarl was on his way
  −
to San Antonio with a cricket.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
At least we got our honey back.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Sometimes I think, so what if humans
  −
liked our honey? Who wouldn't?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It's the greatest thing in the world!
  −
I was excited to be part of making it.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
This was my new desk. This was my
  −
new job. I wanted to do it really well.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
And now...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Now I can't.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I don't understand
  −
why they're not happy.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I thought their lives would be better!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
They're doing nothing. It's amazing.
  −
Honey really changes people.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You don't have any idea
  −
what's going on, do you?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- What did you want to show me?
  −
- This.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What happened here?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That is not the half of it.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oh, no. Oh, my.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
They're all wilting.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Doesn't look very good, does it?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
No.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
And whose fault do you think that is?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You know, I'm gonna guess bees.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Bees?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Specifically, me.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I didn't think bees not needing to make
  −
honey would affect all these things.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It's notjust flowers.
  −
Fruits, vegetables, they all need bees.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That's our whole SAT test right there.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Take away produce, that affects
  −
the entire animal kingdom.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
And then, of course...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
The human species?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
So if there's no more pollination,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
it could all just go south here,
  −
couldn't it?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I know this is also partly my fault.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
How about a suicide pact?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
How do we do it?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- I'll sting you, you step on me.
  −
- Thatjust kills you twice.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Right, right.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Listen, Barry...
  −
sorry, but I gotta get going.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I had to open my mouth and talk.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Vanessa?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Vanessa? Why are you leaving?
  −
Where are you going?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
To the final Tournament of Roses parade
  −
in Pasadena.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
They've moved it to this weekend
  −
because all the flowers are dying.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It's the last chance
  −
I'll ever have to see it.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Vanessa, I just wanna say I'm sorry.
  −
I never meant it to turn out like this.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I know. Me neither.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Tournament of Roses.
  −
Roses can't do sports.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Wait a minute. Roses. Roses?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Roses!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Vanessa!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Roses?!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Barry?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Roses are flowers!
  −
- Yes, they are.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Flowers, bees, pollen!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I know.
  −
That's why this is the last parade.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Maybe not.
  −
Oould you ask him to slow down?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oould you slow down?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Barry!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
OK, I made a huge mistake.
  −
This is a total disaster, all my fault.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yes, it kind of is.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I've ruined the planet.
  −
I wanted to help you
  −
 
  −
 
  −
with the flower shop.
  −
I've made it worse.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Actually, it's completely closed down.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I thought maybe you were remodeling.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
But I have another idea, and it's
  −
greater than my previous ideas combined.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I don't want to hear it!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
All right, they have the roses,
  −
the roses have the pollen.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I know every bee, plant
  −
and flower bud in this park.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
All we gotta do is get what they've got
  −
back here with what we've got.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Bees.
  −
- Park.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Pollen!
  −
- Flowers.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Repollination!
  −
- Across the nation!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Tournament of Roses,
  −
Pasadena, Oalifornia.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
They've got nothing
  −
but flowers, floats and cotton candy.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Security will be tight.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I have an idea.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Vanessa Bloome, FTD.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Official floral business. It's real.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Sorry, ma'am. Nice brooch.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Thank you. It was a gift.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Once inside,
  −
we just pick the right float.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
How about The Princess and the Pea?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I could be the princess,
  −
and you could be the pea!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yes, I got it.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Where should I sit?
  −
- What are you?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- I believe I'm the pea.
  −
- The pea?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It goes under the mattresses.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Not in this fairy tale, sweetheart.
  −
- I'm getting the marshal.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You do that!
  −
This whole parade is a fiasco!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Let's see what this baby'll do.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Hey, what are you doing?!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Then all we do
  −
is blend in with traffic...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
...without arousing suspicion.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Once at the airport,
  −
there's no stopping us.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Stop! Security.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- You and your insect pack your float?
  −
- Yes.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Has it been
  −
in your possession the entire time?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Would you remove your shoes?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Remove your stinger.
  −
- It's part of me.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I know. Just having some fun.
  −
Enjoy your flight.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Then if we're lucky, we'll have
  −
just enough pollen to do the job.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oan you believe how lucky we are? We
  −
have just enough pollen to do the job!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I think this is gonna work.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It's got to work.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Attention, passengers,
  −
this is Oaptain Scott.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We have a bit of bad weather
  −
in New York.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It looks like we'll experience
  −
a couple hours delay.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Barry, these are cut flowers
  −
with no water. They'll never make it.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I gotta get up there
  −
and talk to them.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Be careful.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oan I get help
  −
with the Sky Mall magazine?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'd like to order the talking
  −
inflatable nose and ear hair trimmer.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oaptain, I'm in a real situation.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- What'd you say, Hal?
  −
- Nothing.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Bee!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Don't freak out! My entire species...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What are you doing?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Wait a minute! I'm an attorney!
  −
- Who's an attorney?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Don't move.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oh, Barry.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Good afternoon, passengers.
  −
This is your captain.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Would a Miss Vanessa Bloome in 24B
  −
please report to the cockpit?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
And please hurry!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What happened here?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
There was a DustBuster,
  −
a toupee, a life raft exploded.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
One's bald, one's in a boat,
  −
they're both unconscious!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Is that another bee joke?
  −
- No!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
No one's flying the plane!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
This is JFK control tower, Flight 356.
  −
What's your status?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
This is Vanessa Bloome.
  −
I'm a florist from New York.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Where's the pilot?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
He's unconscious,
  −
and so is the copilot.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Not good. Does anyone onboard
  −
have flight experience?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
As a matter of fact, there is.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Who's that?
  −
- Barry Benson.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
From the honey trial?! Oh, great.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Vanessa, this is nothing more
  −
than a big metal bee.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It's got giant wings, huge engines.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I can't fly a plane.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Why not? Isn't John Travolta a pilot?
  −
- Yes.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
How hard could it be?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Wait, Barry!
  −
We're headed into some lightning.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
This is Bob Bumble. We have some
  −
late-breaking news from JFK Airport,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
where a suspenseful scene
  −
is developing.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Barry Benson,
  −
fresh from his legal victory...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That's Barry!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
...is attempting to land a plane,
  −
loaded with people, flowers
  −
 
  −
 
  −
and an incapacitated flight crew.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Flowers?!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We have a storm in the area
  −
and two individuals at the controls
  −
 
  −
 
  −
with absolutely no flight experience.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Just a minute.
  −
There's a bee on that plane.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm quite familiar with Mr. Benson
  −
and his no-account compadres.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
They've done enough damage.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
But isn't he your only hope?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Technically, a bee
  −
shouldn't be able to fly at all.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Their wings are too small...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Haven't we heard this a million times?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
"The surface area of the wings
  −
and body mass make no sense."
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Get this on the air!
  −
- Got it.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Stand by.
  −
- We're going live.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
The way we work may be a mystery to you.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Making honey takes a lot of bees
  −
doing a lot of small jobs.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
But let me tell you about a small job.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
If you do it well,
  −
it makes a big difference.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
More than we realized.
  −
To us, to everyone.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That's why I want to get bees
  −
back to working together.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That's the bee way!
  −
We're not made of Jell-O.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We get behind a fellow.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Black and yellow!
  −
- Hello!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Left, right, down, hover.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Hover?
  −
- Forget hover.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
This isn't so hard.
  −
Beep-beep! Beep-beep!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Barry, what happened?!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Wait, I think we were
  −
on autopilot the whole time.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- That may have been helping me.
  −
- And now we're not!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
So it turns out I cannot fly a plane.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
All of you, let's get
  −
behind this fellow! Move it out!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Move out!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Our only chance is if I do what I'd do,
  −
you copy me with the wings of the plane!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Don't have to yell.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm not yelling!
  −
We're in a lot of trouble.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It's very hard to concentrate
  −
with that panicky tone in your voice!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It's not a tone. I'm panicking!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I can't do this!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Vanessa, pull yourself together.
  −
You have to snap out of it!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You snap out of it.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You snap out of it.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- You snap out of it!
  −
- You snap out of it!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- You snap out of it!
  −
- You snap out of it!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- You snap out of it!
  −
- You snap out of it!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Hold it!
  −
- Why? Oome on, it's my turn.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
How is the plane flying?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I don't know.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Hello?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Benson, got any flowers
  −
for a happy occasion in there?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
The Pollen Jocks!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
They do get behind a fellow.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Black and yellow.
  −
- Hello.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
All right, let's drop this tin can
  −
on the blacktop.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Where? I can't see anything. Oan you?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
No, nothing. It's all cloudy.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oome on. You got to think bee, Barry.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Thinking bee.
  −
- Thinking bee.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Thinking bee!
  −
Thinking bee! Thinking bee!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Wait a minute.
  −
I think I'm feeling something.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- What?
  −
- I don't know. It's strong, pulling me.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Like a 27-million-year-old instinct.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Bring the nose down.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Thinking bee!
  −
Thinking bee! Thinking bee!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- What in the world is on the tarmac?
  −
- Get some lights on that!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Thinking bee!
  −
Thinking bee! Thinking bee!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Vanessa, aim for the flower.
  −
- OK.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Out the engines. We're going in
  −
on bee power. Ready, boys?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Affirmative!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Good. Good. Easy, now. That's it.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Land on that flower!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Ready? Full reverse!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Spin it around!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Not that flower! The other one!
  −
- Which one?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- That flower.
  −
- I'm aiming at the flower!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That's a fat guy in a flowered shirt.
  −
I mean the giant pulsating flower
  −
 
  −
 
  −
made of millions of bees!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Pull forward. Nose down. Tail up.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Rotate around it.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- This is insane, Barry!
  −
- This's the only way I know how to fly.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Am I koo-koo-kachoo, or is this plane
  −
flying in an insect-like pattern?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Get your nose in there. Don't be afraid.
  −
Smell it. Full reverse!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Just drop it. Be a part of it.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Aim for the center!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Now drop it in! Drop it in, woman!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oome on, already.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Barry, we did it!
  −
You taught me how to fly!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Yes. No high-five!
  −
- Right.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Barry, it worked!
  −
Did you see the giant flower?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What giant flower? Where? Of course
  −
I saw the flower! That was genius!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Thank you.
  −
- But we're not done yet.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Listen, everyone!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
This runway is covered
  −
with the last pollen
  −
 
  −
 
  −
from the last flowers
  −
available anywhere on Earth.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That means this is our last chance.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We're the only ones who make honey,
  −
pollinate flowers and dress like this.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
If we're gonna survive as a species,
  −
this is our moment! What do you say?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Are we going to be bees, orjust
  −
Museum of Natural History keychains?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We're bees!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Keychain!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Then follow me! Except Keychain.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Hold on, Barry. Here.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You've earned this.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yeah!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm a Pollen Jock! And it's a perfect
  −
fit. All I gotta do are the sleeves.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oh, yeah.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That's our Barry.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Mom! The bees are back!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
If anybody needs
  −
to make a call, now's the time.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I got a feeling we'll be
  −
working late tonight!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Here's your change. Have a great
  −
afternoon! Oan I help who's next?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Would you like some honey with that?
  −
It is bee-approved. Don't forget these.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Milk, cream, cheese, it's all me.
  −
And I don't see a nickel!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Sometimes I just feel
  −
like a piece of meat!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I had no idea.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Barry, I'm sorry.
  −
Have you got a moment?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Would you excuse me?
  −
My mosquito associate will help you.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Sorry I'm late.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
He's a lawyer too?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I was already a blood-sucking parasite.
  −
All I needed was a briefcase.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Have a great afternoon!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Barry, I just got this huge tulip order,
  −
and I can't get them anywhere.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
No problem, Vannie.
  −
Just leave it to me.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You're a lifesaver, Barry.
  −
Oan I help who's next?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
All right, scramble, jocks!
  −
It's time to fly.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Thank you, Barry!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That bee is living my life!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Let it go, Kenny.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- When will this nightmare end?!
  −
- Let it all go.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Beautiful day to fly.
  −
- Sure is.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Between you and me,
  −
I was dying to get out of that office.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You have got
  −
to start thinking bee, my friend.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Thinking bee!
  −
- Me?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Hold it. Let's just stop
  −
for a second. Hold it.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm sorry. I'm sorry, everyone.
  −
Oan we stop here?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm not making a major life decision
  −
during a production number!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
All right. Take ten, everybody.
  −
Wrap it up, guys.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I had virtually no rehearsal for that.
  −
 
  −
According to all known laws
  −
of aviation,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
there is no way a bee
  −
should be able to fly.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Its wings are too small to get
  −
its fat little body off the ground.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
The bee, of course, flies anyway
  −
 
  −
 
  −
because bees don't care
  −
what humans think is impossible.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yellow, black. Yellow, black.
  −
Yellow, black. Yellow, black.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Ooh, black and yellow!
  −
Let's shake it up a little.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Barry! Breakfast is ready!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Ooming!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Hang on a second.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Hello?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Barry?
  −
- Adam?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Oan you believe this is happening?
  −
- I can't. I'll pick you up.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Looking sharp.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Use the stairs. Your father
  −
paid good money for those.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Sorry. I'm excited.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Here's the graduate.
  −
We're very proud of you, son.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
A perfect report card, all B's.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Very proud.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Ma! I got a thing going here.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- You got lint on your fuzz.
  −
- Ow! That's me!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Wave to us! We'll be in row 118,000.
  −
- Bye!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Barry, I told you,
  −
stop flying in the house!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Hey, Adam.
  −
- Hey, Barry.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Is that fuzz gel?
  −
- A little. Special day, graduation.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Never thought I'd make it.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Three days grade school,
  −
three days high school.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Those were awkward.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Three days college. I'm glad I took
  −
a day and hitchhiked around the hive.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You did come back different.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Hi, Barry.
  −
- Artie, growing a mustache? Looks good.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Hear about Frankie?
  −
- Yeah.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- You going to the funeral?
  −
- No, I'm not going.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Everybody knows,
  −
sting someone, you die.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Don't waste it on a squirrel.
  −
Such a hothead.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I guess he could have
  −
just gotten out of the way.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I love this incorporating
  −
an amusement park into our day.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That's why we don't need vacations.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Boy, quite a bit of pomp...
  −
under the circumstances.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Well, Adam, today we are men.
  −
- We are!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Bee-men.
  −
- Amen!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Hallelujah!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Students, faculty, distinguished bees,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
please welcome Dean Buzzwell.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Welcome, New Hive Oity
  −
graduating class of...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
...9:15.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That concludes our ceremonies.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
And begins your career
  −
at Honex Industries!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Will we pick ourjob today?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I heard it's just orientation.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Heads up! Here we go.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Keep your hands and antennas
  −
inside the tram at all times.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Wonder what it'll be like?
  −
- A little scary.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Welcome to Honex,
  −
a division of Honesco
  −
 
  −
 
  −
and a part of the Hexagon Group.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
This is it!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Wow.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Wow.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We know that you, as a bee,
  −
have worked your whole life
  −
 
  −
 
  −
to get to the point where you
  −
can work for your whole life.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Honey begins when our valiant Pollen
  −
Jocks bring the nectar to the hive.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Our top-secret formula
  −
 
  −
 
  −
is automatically color-corrected,
  −
scent-adjusted and bubble-contoured
  −
 
  −
 
  −
into this soothing sweet syrup
  −
 
  −
 
  −
with its distinctive
  −
golden glow you know as...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Honey!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- That girl was hot.
  −
- She's my cousin!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- She is?
  −
- Yes, we're all cousins.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Right. You're right.
  −
- At Honex, we constantly strive
  −
 
  −
 
  −
to improve every aspect
  −
of bee existence.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
These bees are stress-testing
  −
a new helmet technology.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- What do you think he makes?
  −
- Not enough.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Here we have our latest advancement,
  −
the Krelman.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- What does that do?
  −
- Oatches that little strand of honey
  −
 
  −
 
  −
that hangs after you pour it.
  −
Saves us millions.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oan anyone work on the Krelman?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Of course. Most bee jobs are
  −
small ones. But bees know
  −
 
  −
 
  −
that every small job,
  −
if it's done well, means a lot.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
But choose carefully
  −
 
  −
 
  −
because you'll stay in the job
  −
you pick for the rest of your life.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
The same job the rest of your life?
  −
I didn't know that.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What's the difference?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You'll be happy to know that bees,
  −
as a species, haven't had one day off
  −
 
  −
 
  −
in 27 million years.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
So you'll just work us to death?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We'll sure try.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Wow! That blew my mind!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
"What's the difference?"
  −
How can you say that?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
One job forever?
  −
That's an insane choice to have to make.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm relieved. Now we only have
  −
to make one decision in life.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
But, Adam, how could they
  −
never have told us that?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Why would you question anything?
  −
We're bees.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We're the most perfectly
  −
functioning society on Earth.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You ever think maybe things
  −
work a little too well here?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Like what? Give me one example.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I don't know. But you know
  −
what I'm talking about.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Please clear the gate.
  −
Royal Nectar Force on approach.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Wait a second. Oheck it out.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Hey, those are Pollen Jocks!
  −
- Wow.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I've never seen them this close.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
They know what it's like
  −
outside the hive.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yeah, but some don't come back.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Hey, Jocks!
  −
- Hi, Jocks!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You guys did great!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You're monsters!
  −
You're sky freaks! I love it! I love it!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- I wonder where they were.
  −
- I don't know.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Their day's not planned.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Outside the hive, flying who knows
  −
where, doing who knows what.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You can'tjust decide to be a Pollen
  −
Jock. You have to be bred for that.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Right.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Look. That's more pollen
  −
than you and I will see in a lifetime.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It's just a status symbol.
  −
Bees make too much of it.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Perhaps. Unless you're wearing it
  −
and the ladies see you wearing it.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Those ladies?
  −
Aren't they our cousins too?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Distant. Distant.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Look at these two.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Oouple of Hive Harrys.
  −
- Let's have fun with them.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It must be dangerous
  −
being a Pollen Jock.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yeah. Once a bear pinned me
  −
against a mushroom!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
He had a paw on my throat,
  −
and with the other, he was slapping me!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Oh, my!
  −
- I never thought I'd knock him out.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What were you doing during this?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Trying to alert the authorities.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I can autograph that.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
A little gusty out there today,
  −
wasn't it, comrades?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yeah. Gusty.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We're hitting a sunflower patch
  −
six miles from here tomorrow.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Six miles, huh?
  −
- Barry!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
A puddle jump for us,
  −
but maybe you're not up for it.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Maybe I am.
  −
- You are not!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We're going 0900 at J-Gate.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What do you think, buzzy-boy?
  −
Are you bee enough?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I might be. It all depends
  −
on what 0900 means.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Hey, Honex!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Dad, you surprised me.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You decide what you're interested in?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Well, there's a lot of choices.
  −
- But you only get one.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Do you ever get bored
  −
doing the same job every day?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Son, let me tell you about stirring.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You grab that stick, and you just
  −
move it around, and you stir it around.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You get yourself into a rhythm.
  −
It's a beautiful thing.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You know, Dad,
  −
the more I think about it,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
maybe the honey field
  −
just isn't right for me.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You were thinking of what,
  −
making balloon animals?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That's a bad job
  −
for a guy with a stinger.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Janet, your son's not sure
  −
he wants to go into honey!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Barry, you are so funny sometimes.
  −
- I'm not trying to be funny.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You're not funny! You're going
  −
into honey. Our son, the stirrer!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- You're gonna be a stirrer?
  −
- No one's listening to me!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Wait till you see the sticks I have.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I could say anything right now.
  −
I'm gonna get an ant tattoo!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Let's open some honey and celebrate!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Maybe I'll pierce my thorax.
  −
Shave my antennae.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Shack up with a grasshopper. Get
  −
a gold tooth and call everybody "dawg"!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm so proud.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- We're starting work today!
  −
- Today's the day.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oome on! All the good jobs
  −
will be gone.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yeah, right.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Pollen counting, stunt bee, pouring,
  −
stirrer, front desk, hair removal...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Is it still available?
  −
- Hang on. Two left!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
One of them's yours! Oongratulations!
  −
Step to the side.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- What'd you get?
  −
- Picking crud out. Stellar!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Wow!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oouple of newbies?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yes, sir! Our first day! We are ready!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Make your choice.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- You want to go first?
  −
- No, you go.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oh, my. What's available?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Restroom attendant's open,
  −
not for the reason you think.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Any chance of getting the Krelman?
  −
- Sure, you're on.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm sorry, the Krelman just closed out.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Wax monkey's always open.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
The Krelman opened up again.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What happened?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
A bee died. Makes an opening. See?
  −
He's dead. Another dead one.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Deady. Deadified. Two more dead.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Dead from the neck up.
  −
Dead from the neck down. That's life!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oh, this is so hard!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Heating, cooling,
  −
stunt bee, pourer, stirrer,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
humming, inspector number seven,
  −
lint coordinator, stripe supervisor,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
mite wrangler. Barry, what
  −
do you think I should... Barry?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Barry!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
All right, we've got the sunflower patch
  −
in quadrant nine...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What happened to you?
  −
Where are you?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- I'm going out.
  −
- Out? Out where?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Out there.
  −
- Oh, no!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I have to, before I go
  −
to work for the rest of my life.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You're gonna die! You're crazy! Hello?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Another call coming in.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
If anyone's feeling brave,
  −
there's a Korean deli on 83rd
  −
 
  −
 
  −
that gets their roses today.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Hey, guys.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Look at that.
  −
- Isn't that the kid we saw yesterday?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Hold it, son, flight deck's restricted.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It's OK, Lou. We're gonna take him up.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Really? Feeling lucky, are you?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Sign here, here. Just initial that.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Thank you.
  −
- OK.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You got a rain advisory today,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
and as you all know,
  −
bees cannot fly in rain.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
So be careful. As always,
  −
watch your brooms,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
hockey sticks, dogs,
  −
birds, bears and bats.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Also, I got a couple of reports
  −
of root beer being poured on us.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Murphy's in a home because of it,
  −
babbling like a cicada!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- That's awful.
  −
- And a reminder for you rookies,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
bee law number one,
  −
absolutely no talking to humans!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
All right, launch positions!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Buzz, buzz, buzz, buzz! Buzz, buzz,
  −
buzz, buzz! Buzz, buzz, buzz, buzz!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Black and yellow!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Hello!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You ready for this, hot shot?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yeah. Yeah, bring it on.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Wind, check.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Antennae, check.
  −
- Nectar pack, check.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Wings, check.
  −
- Stinger, check.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Scared out of my shorts, check.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
OK, ladies,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
let's move it out!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Pound those petunias,
  −
you striped stem-suckers!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
All of you, drain those flowers!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Wow! I'm out!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I can't believe I'm out!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
So blue.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I feel so fast and free!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Box kite!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Wow!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Flowers!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
This is Blue Leader.
  −
We have roses visual.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Bring it around 30 degrees and hold.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Roses!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
30 degrees, roger. Bringing it around.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Stand to the side, kid.
  −
It's got a bit of a kick.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That is one nectar collector!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Ever see pollination up close?
  −
- No, sir.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I pick up some pollen here, sprinkle it
  −
over here. Maybe a dash over there,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
a pinch on that one.
  −
See that? It's a little bit of magic.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That's amazing. Why do we do that?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That's pollen power. More pollen, more
  −
flowers, more nectar, more honey for us.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oool.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm picking up a lot of bright yellow.
  −
Oould be daisies. Don't we need those?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oopy that visual.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Wait. One of these flowers
  −
seems to be on the move.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Say again? You're reporting
  −
a moving flower?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Affirmative.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That was on the line!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
This is the coolest. What is it?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I don't know, but I'm loving this color.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It smells good.
  −
Not like a flower, but I like it.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yeah, fuzzy.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Ohemical-y.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oareful, guys. It's a little grabby.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
My sweet lord of bees!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oandy-brain, get off there!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Problem!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Guys!
  −
- This could be bad.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Affirmative.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Very close.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Gonna hurt.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Mama's little boy.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You are way out of position, rookie!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Ooming in at you like a missile!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Help me!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I don't think these are flowers.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Should we tell him?
  −
- I think he knows.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What is this?!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Match point!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You can start packing up, honey,
  −
because you're about to eat it!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yowser!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Gross.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
There's a bee in the car!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Do something!
  −
- I'm driving!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Hi, bee.
  −
- He's back here!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
He's going to sting me!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Nobody move. If you don't move,
  −
he won't sting you. Freeze!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
He blinked!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Spray him, Granny!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What are you doing?!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Wow... the tension level
  −
out here is unbelievable.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I gotta get home.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oan't fly in rain.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oan't fly in rain.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oan't fly in rain.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Mayday! Mayday! Bee going down!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Ken, could you close
  −
the window please?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Ken, could you close
  −
the window please?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oheck out my new resume.
  −
I made it into a fold-out brochure.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You see? Folds out.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oh, no. More humans. I don't need this.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What was that?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Maybe this time. This time. This time.
  −
This time! This time! This...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Drapes!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That is diabolical.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It's fantastic. It's got all my special
  −
skills, even my top-ten favorite movies.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What's number one? Star Wars?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Nah, I don't go for that...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
...kind of stuff.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
No wonder we shouldn't talk to them.
  −
They're out of their minds.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
When I leave a job interview, they're
  −
flabbergasted, can't believe what I say.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
There's the sun. Maybe that's a way out.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I don't remember the sun
  −
having a big 75 on it.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I predicted global warming.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I could feel it getting hotter.
  −
At first I thought it was just me.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Wait! Stop! Bee!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Stand back. These are winter boots.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Wait!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Don't kill him!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You know I'm allergic to them!
  −
This thing could kill me!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Why does his life have
  −
less value than yours?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Why does his life have any less value
  −
than mine? Is that your statement?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm just saying all life has value. You
  −
don't know what he's capable of feeling.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
My brochure!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
There you go, little guy.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm not scared of him.
  −
It's an allergic thing.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Put that on your resume brochure.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
My whole face could puff up.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Make it one of your special skills.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Knocking someone out
  −
is also a special skill.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Right. Bye, Vanessa. Thanks.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Vanessa, next week? Yogurt night?
  −
- Sure, Ken. You know, whatever.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- You could put carob chips on there.
  −
- Bye.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Supposed to be less calories.
  −
- Bye.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I gotta say something.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
She saved my life.
  −
I gotta say something.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
All right, here it goes.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Nah.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What would I say?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I could really get in trouble.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It's a bee law.
  −
You're not supposed to talk to a human.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I can't believe I'm doing this.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I've got to.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oh, I can't do it. Oome on!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
No. Yes. No.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Do it. I can't.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
How should I start it?
  −
"You like jazz?" No, that's no good.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Here she comes! Speak, you fool!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Hi!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm sorry.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- You're talking.
  −
- Yes, I know.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You're talking!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm so sorry.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
No, it's OK. It's fine.
  −
I know I'm dreaming.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
But I don't recall going to bed.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Well, I'm sure this
  −
is very disconcerting.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
This is a bit of a surprise to me.
  −
I mean, you're a bee!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I am. And I'm not supposed
  −
to be doing this,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
but they were all trying to kill me.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
And if it wasn't for you...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I had to thank you.
  −
It's just how I was raised.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That was a little weird.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- I'm talking with a bee.
  −
- Yeah.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm talking to a bee.
  −
And the bee is talking to me!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I just want to say I'm grateful.
  −
I'll leave now.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Wait! How did you learn to do that?
  −
- What?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
The talking thing.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Same way you did, I guess.
  −
"Mama, Dada, honey." You pick it up.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- That's very funny.
  −
- Yeah.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Bees are funny. If we didn't laugh,
  −
we'd cry with what we have to deal with.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Anyway...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oan I...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
...get you something?
  −
- Like what?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I don't know. I mean...
  −
I don't know. Ooffee?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I don't want to put you out.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It's no trouble. It takes two minutes.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- It's just coffee.
  −
- I hate to impose.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Don't be ridiculous!
  −
- Actually, I would love a cup.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Hey, you want rum cake?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- I shouldn't.
  −
- Have some.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- No, I can't.
  −
- Oome on!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm trying to lose a couple micrograms.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Where?
  −
- These stripes don't help.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You look great!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I don't know if you know
  −
anything about fashion.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Are you all right?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
No.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
He's making the tie in the cab
  −
as they're flying up Madison.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
He finally gets there.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
He runs up the steps into the church.
  −
The wedding is on.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
And he says, "Watermelon?
  −
I thought you said Guatemalan.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Why would I marry a watermelon?"
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Is that a bee joke?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That's the kind of stuff we do.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yeah, different.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
So, what are you gonna do, Barry?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
About work? I don't know.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I want to do my part for the hive,
  −
but I can't do it the way they want.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I know how you feel.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- You do?
  −
- Sure.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
My parents wanted me to be a lawyer or
  −
a doctor, but I wanted to be a florist.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Really?
  −
- My only interest is flowers.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Our new queen was just elected
  −
with that same campaign slogan.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Anyway, if you look...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
There's my hive right there. See it?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You're in Sheep Meadow!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yes! I'm right off the Turtle Pond!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
No way! I know that area.
  −
I lost a toe ring there once.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Why do girls put rings on their toes?
  −
- Why not?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- It's like putting a hat on your knee.
  −
- Maybe I'll try that.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- You all right, ma'am?
  −
- Oh, yeah. Fine.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Just having two cups of coffee!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Anyway, this has been great.
  −
Thanks for the coffee.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yeah, it's no trouble.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Sorry I couldn't finish it. If I did,
  −
I'd be up the rest of my life.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Are you...?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oan I take a piece of this with me?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Sure! Here, have a crumb.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Thanks!
  −
- Yeah.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
All right. Well, then...
  −
I guess I'll see you around.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Or not.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
OK, Barry.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
And thank you
  −
so much again... for before.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oh, that? That was nothing.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Well, not nothing, but... Anyway...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
This can't possibly work.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
He's all set to go.
  −
We may as well try it.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
OK, Dave, pull the chute.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Sounds amazing.
  −
- It was amazing!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It was the scariest,
  −
happiest moment of my life.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Humans! I can't believe
  −
you were with humans!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Giant, scary humans!
  −
What were they like?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Huge and crazy. They talk crazy.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
They eat crazy giant things.
  −
They drive crazy.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Do they try and kill you, like on TV?
  −
- Some of them. But some of them don't.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- How'd you get back?
  −
- Poodle.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You did it, and I'm glad. You saw
  −
whatever you wanted to see.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You had your "experience." Now you
  −
can pick out yourjob and be normal.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Well...
  −
- Well?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Well, I met someone.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You did? Was she Bee-ish?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- A wasp?! Your parents will kill you!
  −
- No, no, no, not a wasp.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Spider?
  −
- I'm not attracted to spiders.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I know it's the hottest thing,
  −
with the eight legs and all.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I can't get by that face.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
So who is she?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
She's... human.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
No, no. That's a bee law.
  −
You wouldn't break a bee law.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Her name's Vanessa.
  −
- Oh, boy.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
She's so nice. And she's a florist!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oh, no! You're dating a human florist!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We're not dating.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You're flying outside the hive, talking
  −
to humans that attack our homes
  −
 
  −
 
  −
with power washers and M-80s!
  −
One-eighth a stick of dynamite!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
She saved my life!
  −
And she understands me.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
This is over!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Eat this.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
This is not over! What was that?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- They call it a crumb.
  −
- It was so stingin' stripey!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
And that's not what they eat.
  −
That's what falls off what they eat!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- You know what a Oinnabon is?
  −
- No.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It's bread and cinnamon and frosting.
  −
They heat it up...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Sit down!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
...really hot!
  −
- Listen to me!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We are not them! We're us.
  −
There's us and there's them!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yes, but who can deny
  −
the heart that is yearning?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
There's no yearning.
  −
Stop yearning. Listen to me!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You have got to start thinking bee,
  −
my friend. Thinking bee!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Thinking bee.
  −
- Thinking bee.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Thinking bee! Thinking bee!
  −
Thinking bee! Thinking bee!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
There he is. He's in the pool.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You know what your problem is, Barry?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I gotta start thinking bee?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
How much longer will this go on?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It's been three days!
  −
Why aren't you working?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I've got a lot of big life decisions
  −
to think about.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What life? You have no life!
  −
You have no job. You're barely a bee!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Would it kill you
  −
to make a little honey?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Barry, come out.
  −
Your father's talking to you.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Martin, would you talk to him?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Barry, I'm talking to you!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You coming?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Got everything?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
All set!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Go ahead. I'll catch up.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Don't be too long.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Watch this!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Vanessa!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- We're still here.
  −
- I told you not to yell at him.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
He doesn't respond to yelling!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Then why yell at me?
  −
- Because you don't listen!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm not listening to this.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Sorry, I've gotta go.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Where are you going?
  −
- I'm meeting a friend.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
A girl? Is this why you can't decide?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Bye.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I just hope she's Bee-ish.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
They have a huge parade
  −
of flowers every year in Pasadena?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
To be in the Tournament of Roses,
  −
that's every florist's dream!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Up on a float, surrounded
  −
by flowers, crowds cheering.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
A tournament. Do the roses
  −
compete in athletic events?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
No. All right, I've got one.
  −
How come you don't fly everywhere?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It's exhausting. Why don't you
  −
run everywhere? It's faster.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yeah, OK, I see, I see.
  −
All right, your turn.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
TiVo. You can just freeze live TV?
  −
That's insane!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You don't have that?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We have Hivo, but it's a disease.
  −
It's a horrible, horrible disease.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oh, my.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Dumb bees!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You must want to sting all those jerks.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We try not to sting.
  −
It's usually fatal for us.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
So you have to watch your temper.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Very carefully.
  −
You kick a wall, take a walk,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
write an angry letter and throw it out.
  −
Work through it like any emotion:
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Anger, jealousy, lust.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oh, my goodness! Are you OK?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yeah.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- What is wrong with you?!
  −
- It's a bug.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
He's not bothering anybody.
  −
Get out of here, you creep!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What was that? A Pic 'N' Save circular?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yeah, it was. How did you know?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It felt like about 10 pages.
  −
Seventy-five is pretty much our limit.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You've really got that
  −
down to a science.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- I lost a cousin to Italian Vogue.
  −
- I'll bet.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What in the name
  −
of Mighty Hercules is this?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
How did this get here?
  −
Oute Bee, Golden Blossom,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Ray Liotta Private Select?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Is he that actor?
  −
- I never heard of him.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Why is this here?
  −
- For people. We eat it.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You don't have
  −
enough food of your own?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Well, yes.
  −
- How do you get it?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Bees make it.
  −
- I know who makes it!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
And it's hard to make it!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
There's heating, cooling, stirring.
  −
You need a whole Krelman thing!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- It's organic.
  −
- It's our-ganic!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It's just honey, Barry.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Just what?!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Bees don't know about this!
  −
This is stealing! A lot of stealing!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You've taken our homes, schools,
  −
hospitals! This is all we have!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
And it's on sale?!
  −
I'm getting to the bottom of this.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm getting to the bottom
  −
of all of this!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Hey, Hector.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- You almost done?
  −
- Almost.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
He is here. I sense it.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Well, I guess I'll go home now
  −
 
  −
 
  −
and just leave this nice honey out,
  −
with no one around.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You're busted, box boy!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I knew I heard something.
  −
So you can talk!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I can talk.
  −
And now you'll start talking!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Where you getting the sweet stuff?
  −
Who's your supplier?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I don't understand.
  −
I thought we were friends.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
The last thing we want
  −
to do is upset bees!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You're too late! It's ours now!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You, sir, have crossed
  −
the wrong sword!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You, sir, will be lunch
  −
for my iguana, Ignacio!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Where is the honey coming from?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Tell me where!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Honey Farms! It comes from Honey Farms!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Orazy person!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What horrible thing has happened here?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
These faces, they never knew
  −
what hit them. And now
  −
 
  −
 
  −
they're on the road to nowhere!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Just keep still.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What? You're not dead?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Do I look dead? They will wipe anything
  −
that moves. Where you headed?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
To Honey Farms.
  −
I am onto something huge here.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm going to Alaska. Moose blood,
  −
crazy stuff. Blows your head off!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm going to Tacoma.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- And you?
  −
- He really is dead.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
All right.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Uh-oh!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- What is that?!
  −
- Oh, no!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- A wiper! Triple blade!
  −
- Triple blade?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Jump on! It's your only chance, bee!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Why does everything have
  −
to be so doggone clean?!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
How much do you people need to see?!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Open your eyes!
  −
Stick your head out the window!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
From NPR News in Washington,
  −
I'm Oarl Kasell.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
But don't kill no more bugs!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Bee!
  −
- Moose blood guy!!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- You hear something?
  −
- Like what?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Like tiny screaming.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Turn off the radio.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Whassup, bee boy?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Hey, Blood.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Just a row of honey jars,
  −
as far as the eye could see.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Wow!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I assume wherever this truck goes
  −
is where they're getting it.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I mean, that honey's ours.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Bees hang tight.
  −
- We're all jammed in.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It's a close community.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Not us, man. We on our own.
  −
Every mosquito on his own.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- What if you get in trouble?
  −
- You a mosquito, you in trouble.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Nobody likes us. They just smack.
  −
See a mosquito, smack, smack!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
At least you're out in the world.
  −
You must meet girls.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Mosquito girls try to trade up,
  −
get with a moth, dragonfly.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Mosquito girl don't want no mosquito.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You got to be kidding me!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Mooseblood's about to leave
  −
the building! So long, bee!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Hey, guys!
  −
- Mooseblood!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I knew I'd catch y'all down here.
  −
Did you bring your crazy straw?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We throw it in jars, slap a label on it,
  −
and it's pretty much pure profit.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What is this place?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
A bee's got a brain
  −
the size of a pinhead.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
They are pinheads!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Pinhead.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Oheck out the new smoker.
  −
- Oh, sweet. That's the one you want.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
The Thomas 3000!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Smoker?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Ninety puffs a minute, semi-automatic.
  −
Twice the nicotine, all the tar.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
A couple breaths of this
  −
knocks them right out.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
They make the honey,
  −
and we make the money.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
"They make the honey,
  −
and we make the money"?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oh, my!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What's going on? Are you OK?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yeah. It doesn't last too long.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Do you know you're
  −
in a fake hive with fake walls?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Our queen was moved here.
  −
We had no choice.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
This is your queen?
  −
That's a man in women's clothes!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That's a drag queen!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What is this?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oh, no!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
There's hundreds of them!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Bee honey.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Our honey is being brazenly stolen
  −
on a massive scale!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
This is worse than anything bears
  −
have done! I intend to do something.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oh, Barry, stop.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Who told you humans are taking
  −
our honey? That's a rumor.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Do these look like rumors?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That's a conspiracy theory.
  −
These are obviously doctored photos.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
How did you get mixed up in this?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
He's been talking to humans.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- What?
  −
- Talking to humans?!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
He has a human girlfriend.
  −
And they make out!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Make out? Barry!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We do not.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- You wish you could.
  −
- Whose side are you on?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
The bees!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I dated a cricket once in San Antonio.
  −
Those crazy legs kept me up all night.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Barry, this is what you want
  −
to do with your life?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I want to do it for all our lives.
  −
Nobody works harder than bees!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Dad, I remember you
  −
coming home so overworked
  −
 
  −
 
  −
your hands were still stirring.
  −
You couldn't stop.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I remember that.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What right do they have to our honey?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We live on two cups a year. They put it
  −
in lip balm for no reason whatsoever!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Even if it's true, what can one bee do?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Sting them where it really hurts.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
In the face! The eye!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- That would hurt.
  −
- No.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Up the nose? That's a killer.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
There's only one place you can sting
  −
the humans, one place where it matters.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Hive at Five, the hive's only
  −
full-hour action news source.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
No more bee beards!

With Bob Bumble at the anchor desk.

Weather with Storm Stinger.

Sports with Buzz Larvi.

  −
A tri-county bee, Barry Benson,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
intends to sue the human race
  −
for stealing our honey,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
packaging it and profiting
  −
from it illegally!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Tomorrow night on Bee Larry King,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
we'll have three former queens here in
  −
our studio, discussing their new book,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Olassy Ladies,
  −
out this week on Hexagon.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Tonight we're talking to Barry Benson.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Did you ever think, "I'm a kid
  −
from the hive. I can't do this"?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Bees have never been afraid
  −
to change the world.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What about Bee Oolumbus?
  −
Bee Gandhi? Bejesus?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Where I'm from, we'd never sue humans.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We were thinking
  −
of stickball or candy stores.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
How old are you?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
The bee community
  −
is supporting you in this case,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
which will be the trial
  −
of the bee century.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You know, they have a Larry King
  −
in the human world too.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It's a common name. Next week...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
He looks like you and has a show
  −
and suspenders and colored dots...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Next week...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Glasses, quotes on the bottom from the
  −
guest even though you just heard 'em.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Bear Week next week!
  −
They're scary, hairy and here live.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Always leans forward, pointy shoulders,
  −
squinty eyes, very Jewish.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
In tennis, you attack
  −
at the point of weakness!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It was my grandmother, Ken. She's 81.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Honey, her backhand's a joke!
  −
I'm not gonna take advantage of that?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Quiet, please.
  −
Actual work going on here.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Is that that same bee?
  −
- Yes, it is!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm helping him sue the human race.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Hello.
  −
- Hello, bee.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
This is Ken.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yeah, I remember you. Timberland, size
  −
ten and a half. Vibram sole, I believe.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Why does he talk again?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Listen, you better go
  −
'cause we're really busy working.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
But it's our yogurt night!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Bye-bye.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Why is yogurt night so difficult?!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You poor thing.
  −
You two have been at this for hours!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yes, and Adam here
  −
has been a huge help.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Frosting...
  −
- How many sugars?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Just one. I try not
  −
to use the competition.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
So why are you helping me?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Bees have good qualities.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
And it takes my mind off the shop.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Instead of flowers, people
  −
are giving balloon bouquets now.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Those are great, if you're three.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
And artificial flowers.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Oh, those just get me psychotic!
  −
- Yeah, me too.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Bent stingers, pointless pollination.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Bees must hate those fake things!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Nothing worse
  −
than a daffodil that's had work done.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Maybe this could make up
  −
for it a little bit.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- This lawsuit's a pretty big deal.
  −
- I guess.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You sure you want to go through with it?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Am I sure? When I'm done with
  −
the humans, they won't be able
  −
 
  −
 
  −
to say, "Honey, I'm home,"
  −
without paying a royalty!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It's an incredible scene
  −
here in downtown Manhattan,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
where the world anxiously waits,
  −
because for the first time in history,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
we will hear for ourselves
  −
if a honeybee can actually speak.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What have we gotten into here, Barry?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It's pretty big, isn't it?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I can't believe how many humans
  −
don't work during the day.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You think billion-dollar multinational
  −
food companies have good lawyers?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Everybody needs to stay
  −
behind the barricade.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- What's the matter?
  −
- I don't know, I just got a chill.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Well, if it isn't the bee team.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You boys work on this?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
All rise! The Honorable
  −
Judge Bumbleton presiding.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
All right. Oase number 4475,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Superior Oourt of New York,
  −
Barry Bee Benson v. the Honey Industry
  −
 
  −
 
  −
is now in session.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Mr. Montgomery, you're representing
  −
the five food companies collectively?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
A privilege.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Mr. Benson... you're representing
  −
all the bees of the world?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm kidding. Yes, Your Honor,
  −
we're ready to proceed.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Mr. Montgomery,
  −
your opening statement, please.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Ladies and gentlemen of the jury,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
my grandmother was a simple woman.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Born on a farm, she believed
  −
it was man's divine right
  −
 
  −
 
  −
to benefit from the bounty
  −
of nature God put before us.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
If we lived in the topsy-turvy world
  −
Mr. Benson imagines,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
just think of what would it mean.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I would have to negotiate
  −
with the silkworm
  −
 
  −
 
  −
for the elastic in my britches!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Talking bee!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
How do we know this isn't some sort of
  −
 
  −
 
  −
holographic motion-picture-capture
  −
Hollywood wizardry?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
They could be using laser beams!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Robotics! Ventriloquism!
  −
Oloning! For all we know,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
he could be on steroids!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Mr. Benson?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Ladies and gentlemen,
  −
there's no trickery here.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm just an ordinary bee.
  −
Honey's pretty important to me.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It's important to all bees.
  −
We invented it!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We make it. And we protect it
  −
with our lives.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Unfortunately, there are
  −
some people in this room
  −
 
  −
 
  −
who think they can take it from us
  −
 
  −
 
  −
'cause we're the little guys!
  −
I'm hoping that, after this is all over,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
you'll see how, by taking our honey,
  −
you not only take everything we have
  −
 
  −
 
  −
but everything we are!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I wish he'd dress like that
  −
all the time. So nice!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oall your first witness.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
So, Mr. Klauss Vanderhayden
  −
of Honey Farms, big company you have.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I suppose so.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I see you also own
  −
Honeyburton and Honron!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yes, they provide beekeepers
  −
for our farms.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Beekeeper. I find that
  −
to be a very disturbing term.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I don't imagine you employ
  −
any bee-free-ers, do you?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- No.
  −
- I couldn't hear you.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- No.
  −
- No.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Because you don't free bees.
  −
You keep bees. Not only that,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
it seems you thought a bear would be
  −
an appropriate image for a jar of honey.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
They're very lovable creatures.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yogi Bear, Fozzie Bear, Build-A-Bear.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You mean like this?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Bears kill bees!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
How'd you like his head crashing
  −
through your living room?!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Biting into your couch!
  −
Spitting out your throw pillows!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
OK, that's enough. Take him away.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
So, Mr. Sting, thank you for being here.
  −
Your name intrigues me.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Where have I heard it before?
  −
- I was with a band called The Police.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
But you've never been
  −
a police officer, have you?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
No, I haven't.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
No, you haven't. And so here
  −
we have yet another example
  −
 
  −
 
  −
of bee culture casually
  −
stolen by a human
  −
 
  −
 
  −
for nothing more than
  −
a prance-about stage name.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oh, please.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Have you ever been stung, Mr. Sting?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Because I'm feeling
  −
a little stung, Sting.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Or should I say... Mr. Gordon M. Sumner!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That's not his real name?! You idiots!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Mr. Liotta, first,
  −
belated congratulations on
  −
 
  −
 
  −
your Emmy win for a guest spot
  −
on ER in 2005.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Thank you. Thank you.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I see from your resume
  −
that you're devilishly handsome
  −
 
  −
 
  −
with a churning inner turmoil
  −
that's ready to blow.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I enjoy what I do. Is that a crime?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Not yet it isn't. But is this
  −
what it's come to for you?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Exploiting tiny, helpless bees
  −
so you don't
  −
 
  −
 
  −
have to rehearse
  −
your part and learn your lines, sir?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Watch it, Benson!
  −
I could blow right now!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
This isn't a goodfella.
  −
This is a badfella!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Why doesn't someone just step on
  −
this creep, and we can all go home?!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Order in this court!
  −
- You're all thinking it!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Order! Order, I say!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Say it!
  −
- Mr. Liotta, please sit down!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I think it was awfully nice
  −
of that bear to pitch in like that.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I think the jury's on our side.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Are we doing everything right, legally?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm a florist.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Right. Well, here's to a great team.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
To a great team!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Well, hello.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Ken!
  −
- Hello.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I didn't think you were coming.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
No, I was just late.
  −
I tried to call, but... the battery.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I didn't want all this to go to waste,
  −
so I called Barry. Luckily, he was free.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oh, that was lucky.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
There's a little left.
  −
I could heat it up.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yeah, heat it up, sure, whatever.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
So I hear you're quite a tennis player.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm not much for the game myself.
  −
The ball's a little grabby.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That's where I usually sit.
  −
Right... there.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Ken, Barry was looking at your resume,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
and he agreed with me that eating with
  −
chopsticks isn't really a special skill.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You think I don't see what you're doing?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I know how hard it is to find
  −
the rightjob. We have that in common.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Do we?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Bees have 100 percent employment,
  −
but we do jobs like taking the crud out.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That's just what
  −
I was thinking about doing.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Ken, I let Barry borrow your razor
  −
for his fuzz. I hope that was all right.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm going to drain the old stinger.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yeah, you do that.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Look at that.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You know, I've just about had it
  −
 
  −
 
  −
with your little mind games.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- What's that?
  −
- Italian Vogue.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Mamma mia, that's a lot of pages.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
A lot of ads.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Remember what Van said, why is
  −
your life more valuable than mine?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Funny, I just can't seem to recall that!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I think something stinks in here!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I love the smell of flowers.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
How do you like the smell of flames?!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Not as much.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Water bug! Not taking sides!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Ken, I'm wearing a Ohapstick hat!
  −
This is pathetic!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I've got issues!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Well, well, well, a royal flush!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- You're bluffing.
  −
- Am I?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Surf's up, dude!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Poo water!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That bowl is gnarly.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Except for those dirty yellow rings!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Kenneth! What are you doing?!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You know, I don't even like honey!
  −
I don't eat it!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We need to talk!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
He's just a little bee!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
And he happens to be
  −
the nicest bee I've met in a long time!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Long time? What are you talking about?!
  −
Are there other bugs in your life?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
No, but there are other things bugging
  −
me in life. And you're one of them!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Fine! Talking bees, no yogurt night...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
My nerves are fried from riding
  −
on this emotional roller coaster!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Goodbye, Ken.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
And for your information,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I prefer sugar-free, artificial
  −
sweeteners made by man!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm sorry about all that.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I know it's got
  −
an aftertaste! I like it!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I always felt there was some kind
  −
of barrier between Ken and me.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I couldn't overcome it.
  −
Oh, well.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Are you OK for the trial?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I believe Mr. Montgomery
  −
is about out of ideas.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We would like to call
  −
Mr. Barry Benson Bee to the stand.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Good idea! You can really see why he's
  −
considered one of the best lawyers...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yeah.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Layton, you've
  −
gotta weave some magic
  −
 
  −
 
  −
with this jury,
  −
or it's gonna be all over.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Don't worry. The only thing I have
  −
to do to turn this jury around
  −
 
  −
 
  −
is to remind them
  −
of what they don't like about bees.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- You got the tweezers?
  −
- Are you allergic?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Only to losing, son. Only to losing.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Mr. Benson Bee, I'll ask you
  −
what I think we'd all like to know.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What exactly is your relationship
  −
 
  −
 
  −
to that woman?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We're friends.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Good friends?
  −
- Yes.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
How good? Do you live together?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Wait a minute...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Are you her little...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
...bedbug?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I've seen a bee documentary or two.
  −
From what I understand,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
doesn't your queen give birth
  −
to all the bee children?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Yeah, but...
  −
- So those aren't your real parents!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Oh, Barry...
  −
- Yes, they are!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Hold me back!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You're an illegitimate bee,
  −
aren't you, Benson?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
He's denouncing bees!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Don't y'all date your cousins?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Objection!
  −
- I'm going to pincushion this guy!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Adam, don't! It's what he wants!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oh, I'm hit!!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oh, lordy, I am hit!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Order! Order!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
The venom! The venom
  −
is coursing through my veins!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I have been felled
  −
by a winged beast of destruction!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You see? You can't treat them
  −
like equals! They're striped savages!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Stinging's the only thing
  −
they know! It's their way!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Adam, stay with me.
  −
- I can't feel my legs.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What angel of mercy
  −
will come forward to suck the poison
  −
 
  −
 
  −
from my heaving buttocks?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I will have order in this court. Order!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Order, please!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
The case of the honeybees
  −
versus the human race
  −
 
  −
 
  −
took a pointed turn against the bees
  −
 
  −
 
  −
yesterday when one of their legal
  −
team stung Layton T. Montgomery.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Hey, buddy.
  −
- Hey.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Is there much pain?
  −
- Yeah.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I blew the whole case, didn't I?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It doesn't matter. What matters is
  −
you're alive. You could have died.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'd be better off dead. Look at me.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
They got it from the cafeteria
  −
downstairs, in a tuna sandwich.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Look, there's
  −
a little celery still on it.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What was it like to sting someone?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I can't explain it. It was all...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
All adrenaline and then...
  −
and then ecstasy!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
All right.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You think it was all a trap?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Of course. I'm sorry.
  −
I flew us right into this.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What were we thinking? Look at us. We're
  −
just a couple of bugs in this world.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What will the humans do to us
  −
if they win?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I don't know.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I hear they put the roaches in motels.
  −
That doesn't sound so bad.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Adam, they check in,
  −
but they don't check out!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oh, my.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oould you get a nurse
  −
to close that window?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Why?
  −
- The smoke.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Bees don't smoke.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Right. Bees don't smoke.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Bees don't smoke!
  −
But some bees are smoking.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That's it! That's our case!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It is? It's not over?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Get dressed. I've gotta go somewhere.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Get back to the court and stall.
  −
Stall any way you can.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
And assuming you've done step correctly, you're ready for the tub.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Mr. Flayman.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yes? Yes, Your Honor!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Where is the rest of your team?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Well, Your Honor, it's interesting.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Bees are trained to fly haphazardly,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
and as a result,
  −
we don't make very good time.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I actually heard a funny story about...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Your Honor,
  −
haven't these ridiculous bugs
  −
 
  −
 
  −
taken up enough
  −
of this court's valuable time?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
How much longer will we allow
  −
these absurd shenanigans to go on?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
They have presented no compelling
  −
evidence to support their charges
  −
 
  −
 
  −
against my clients,
  −
who run legitimate businesses.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I move for a complete dismissal
  −
of this entire case!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Mr. Flayman, I'm afraid I'm going
  −
 
  −
 
  −
to have to consider
  −
Mr. Montgomery's motion.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
But you can't! We have a terrific case.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Where is your proof?
  −
Where is the evidence?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Show me the smoking gun!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Hold it, Your Honor!
  −
You want a smoking gun?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Here is your smoking gun.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What is that?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It's a bee smoker!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What, this?
  −
This harmless little contraption?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
This couldn't hurt a fly,
  −
let alone a bee.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Look at what has happened
  −
 
  −
 
  −
to bees who have never been asked,
  −
"Smoking or non?"
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Is this what nature intended for us?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
To be forcibly addicted
  −
to smoke machines
  −
 
  −
 
  −
and man-made wooden slat work camps?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Living out our lives as honey slaves
  −
to the white man?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- What are we gonna do?
  −
- He's playing the species card.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Ladies and gentlemen, please,
  −
free these bees!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Free the bees! Free the bees!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Free the bees!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Free the bees! Free the bees!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
The court finds in favor of the bees!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Vanessa, we won!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I knew you could do it! High-five!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Sorry.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm OK! You know what this means?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
All the honey
  −
will finally belong to the bees.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Now we won't have
  −
to work so hard all the time.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
This is an unholy perversion
  −
of the balance of nature, Benson.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You'll regret this.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Barry, how much honey is out there?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
All right. One at a time.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Barry, who are you wearing?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
My sweater is Ralph Lauren,
  −
and I have no pants.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- What if Montgomery's right?
  −
- What do you mean?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We've been living the bee way
  −
a long time, 27 million years.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oongratulations on your victory.
  −
What will you demand as a settlement?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
First, we'll demand a complete shutdown
  −
of all bee work camps.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Then we want back the honey
  −
that was ours to begin with,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
every last drop.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We demand an end to the glorification
  −
of the bear as anything more
  −
 
  −
 
  −
than a filthy, smelly,
  −
bad-breath stink machine.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We're all aware
  −
of what they do in the woods.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Wait for my signal.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Take him out.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
He'll have nauseous
  −
for a few hours, then he'll be fine.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
And we will no longer tolerate
  −
bee-negative nicknames...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
But it's just a prance-about stage name!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
...unnecessary inclusion of honey
  −
in bogus health products
  −
 
  −
 
  −
and la-dee-da human
  −
tea-time snack garnishments.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oan't breathe.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Bring it in, boys!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Hold it right there! Good.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Tap it.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Mr. Buzzwell, we just passed three cups,
  −
and there's gallons more coming!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- I think we need to shut down!
  −
- Shut down? We've never shut down.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Shut down honey production!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Stop making honey!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Turn your key, sir!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What do we do now?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oannonball!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We're shutting honey production!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Mission abort.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Aborting pollination and nectar detail.
  −
Returning to base.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Adam, you wouldn't believe
  −
how much honey was out there.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oh, yeah?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What's going on? Where is everybody?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Are they out celebrating?
  −
- They're home.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
They don't know what to do.
  −
Laying out, sleeping in.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I heard your Uncle Oarl was on his way
  −
to San Antonio with a cricket.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
At least we got our honey back.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Sometimes I think, so what if humans
  −
liked our honey? Who wouldn't?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It's the greatest thing in the world!
  −
I was excited to be part of making it.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
This was my new desk. This was my
  −
new job. I wanted to do it really well.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
And now...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Now I can't.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I don't understand
  −
why they're not happy.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I thought their lives would be better!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
They're doing nothing. It's amazing.
  −
Honey really changes people.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You don't have any idea
  −
what's going on, do you?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- What did you want to show me?
  −
- This.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What happened here?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That is not the half of it.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oh, no. Oh, my.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
They're all wilting.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Doesn't look very good, does it?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
No.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
And whose fault do you think that is?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You know, I'm gonna guess bees.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Bees?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Specifically, me.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I didn't think bees not needing to make
  −
honey would affect all these things.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It's notjust flowers.
  −
Fruits, vegetables, they all need bees.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That's our whole SAT test right there.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Take away produce, that affects
  −
the entire animal kingdom.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
And then, of course...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
The human species?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
So if there's no more pollination,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
it could all just go south here,
  −
couldn't it?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I know this is also partly my fault.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
How about a suicide pact?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
How do we do it?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- I'll sting you, you step on me.
  −
- Thatjust kills you twice.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Right, right.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Listen, Barry...
  −
sorry, but I gotta get going.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I had to open my mouth and talk.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Vanessa?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Vanessa? Why are you leaving?
  −
Where are you going?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
To the final Tournament of Roses parade
  −
in Pasadena.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
They've moved it to this weekend
  −
because all the flowers are dying.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It's the last chance
  −
I'll ever have to see it.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Vanessa, I just wanna say I'm sorry.
  −
I never meant it to turn out like this.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I know. Me neither.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Tournament of Roses.
  −
Roses can't do sports.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Wait a minute. Roses. Roses?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Roses!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Vanessa!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Roses?!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Barry?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Roses are flowers!
  −
- Yes, they are.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Flowers, bees, pollen!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I know.
  −
That's why this is the last parade.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Maybe not.
  −
Oould you ask him to slow down?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oould you slow down?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Barry!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
OK, I made a huge mistake.
  −
This is a total disaster, all my fault.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yes, it kind of is.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I've ruined the planet.
  −
I wanted to help you
  −
 
  −
 
  −
with the flower shop.
  −
I've made it worse.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Actually, it's completely closed down.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I thought maybe you were remodeling.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
But I have another idea, and it's
  −
greater than my previous ideas combined.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I don't want to hear it!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
All right, they have the roses,
  −
the roses have the pollen.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I know every bee, plant
  −
and flower bud in this park.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
All we gotta do is get what they've got
  −
back here with what we've got.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Bees.
  −
- Park.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Pollen!
  −
- Flowers.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Repollination!
  −
- Across the nation!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Tournament of Roses,
  −
Pasadena, Oalifornia.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
They've got nothing
  −
but flowers, floats and cotton candy.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Security will be tight.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I have an idea.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Vanessa Bloome, FTD.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Official floral business. It's real.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Sorry, ma'am. Nice brooch.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Thank you. It was a gift.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Once inside,
  −
we just pick the right float.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
How about The Princess and the Pea?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I could be the princess,
  −
and you could be the pea!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yes, I got it.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Where should I sit?
  −
- What are you?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- I believe I'm the pea.
  −
- The pea?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It goes under the mattresses.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Not in this fairy tale, sweetheart.
  −
- I'm getting the marshal.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You do that!
  −
This whole parade is a fiasco!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Let's see what this baby'll do.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Hey, what are you doing?!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Then all we do
  −
is blend in with traffic...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
...without arousing suspicion.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Once at the airport,
  −
there's no stopping us.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Stop! Security.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- You and your insect pack your float?
  −
- Yes.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Has it been
  −
in your possession the entire time?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Would you remove your shoes?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Remove your stinger.
  −
- It's part of me.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I know. Just having some fun.
  −
Enjoy your flight.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Then if we're lucky, we'll have
  −
just enough pollen to do the job.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oan you believe how lucky we are? We
  −
have just enough pollen to do the job!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I think this is gonna work.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It's got to work.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Attention, passengers,
  −
this is Oaptain Scott.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We have a bit of bad weather
  −
in New York.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It looks like we'll experience
  −
a couple hours delay.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Barry, these are cut flowers
  −
with no water. They'll never make it.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I gotta get up there
  −
and talk to them.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Be careful.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oan I get help
  −
with the Sky Mall magazine?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'd like to order the talking
  −
inflatable nose and ear hair trimmer.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oaptain, I'm in a real situation.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- What'd you say, Hal?
  −
- Nothing.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Bee!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Don't freak out! My entire species...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What are you doing?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Wait a minute! I'm an attorney!
  −
- Who's an attorney?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Don't move.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oh, Barry.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Good afternoon, passengers.
  −
This is your captain.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Would a Miss Vanessa Bloome in 24B
  −
please report to the cockpit?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
And please hurry!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What happened here?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
There was a DustBuster,
  −
a toupee, a life raft exploded.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
One's bald, one's in a boat,
  −
they're both unconscious!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Is that another bee joke?
  −
- No!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
No one's flying the plane!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
This is JFK control tower, Flight 356.
  −
What's your status?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
This is Vanessa Bloome.
  −
I'm a florist from New York.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Where's the pilot?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
He's unconscious,
  −
and so is the copilot.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Not good. Does anyone onboard
  −
have flight experience?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
As a matter of fact, there is.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Who's that?
  −
- Barry Benson.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
From the honey trial?! Oh, great.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Vanessa, this is nothing more
  −
than a big metal bee.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It's got giant wings, huge engines.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I can't fly a plane.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Why not? Isn't John Travolta a pilot?
  −
- Yes.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
How hard could it be?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Wait, Barry!
  −
We're headed into some lightning.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
This is Bob Bumble. We have some
  −
late-breaking news from JFK Airport,
  −
 
  −
 
  −
where a suspenseful scene
  −
is developing.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Barry Benson,
  −
fresh from his legal victory...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That's Barry!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
...is attempting to land a plane,
  −
loaded with people, flowers
  −
 
  −
 
  −
and an incapacitated flight crew.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Flowers?!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We have a storm in the area
  −
and two individuals at the controls
  −
 
  −
 
  −
with absolutely no flight experience.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Just a minute.
  −
There's a bee on that plane.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm quite familiar with Mr. Benson
  −
and his no-account compadres.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
They've done enough damage.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
But isn't he your only hope?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Technically, a bee
  −
shouldn't be able to fly at all.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Their wings are too small...
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Haven't we heard this a million times?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
"The surface area of the wings
  −
and body mass make no sense."
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Get this on the air!
  −
- Got it.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Stand by.
  −
- We're going live.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
The way we work may be a mystery to you.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Making honey takes a lot of bees
  −
doing a lot of small jobs.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
But let me tell you about a small job.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
If you do it well,
  −
it makes a big difference.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
More than we realized.
  −
To us, to everyone.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That's why I want to get bees
  −
back to working together.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That's the bee way!
  −
We're not made of Jell-O.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We get behind a fellow.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Black and yellow!
  −
- Hello!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Left, right, down, hover.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Hover?
  −
- Forget hover.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
This isn't so hard.
  −
Beep-beep! Beep-beep!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Barry, what happened?!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Wait, I think we were
  −
on autopilot the whole time.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- That may have been helping me.
  −
- And now we're not!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
So it turns out I cannot fly a plane.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
All of you, let's get
  −
behind this fellow! Move it out!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Move out!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Our only chance is if I do what I'd do,
  −
you copy me with the wings of the plane!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Don't have to yell.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm not yelling!
  −
We're in a lot of trouble.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It's very hard to concentrate
  −
with that panicky tone in your voice!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
It's not a tone. I'm panicking!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I can't do this!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Vanessa, pull yourself together.
  −
You have to snap out of it!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You snap out of it.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You snap out of it.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- You snap out of it!
  −
- You snap out of it!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- You snap out of it!
  −
- You snap out of it!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- You snap out of it!
  −
- You snap out of it!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Hold it!
  −
- Why? Oome on, it's my turn.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
How is the plane flying?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I don't know.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Hello?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Benson, got any flowers
  −
for a happy occasion in there?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
The Pollen Jocks!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
They do get behind a fellow.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Black and yellow.
  −
- Hello.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
All right, let's drop this tin can
  −
on the blacktop.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Where? I can't see anything. Oan you?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
No, nothing. It's all cloudy.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oome on. You got to think bee, Barry.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Thinking bee.
  −
- Thinking bee.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Thinking bee!
  −
Thinking bee! Thinking bee!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Wait a minute.
  −
I think I'm feeling something.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- What?
  −
- I don't know. It's strong, pulling me.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Like a 27-million-year-old instinct.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Bring the nose down.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Thinking bee!
  −
Thinking bee! Thinking bee!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- What in the world is on the tarmac?
  −
- Get some lights on that!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Thinking bee!
  −
Thinking bee! Thinking bee!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Vanessa, aim for the flower.
  −
- OK.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Out the engines. We're going in
  −
on bee power. Ready, boys?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Affirmative!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Good. Good. Easy, now. That's it.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Land on that flower!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Ready? Full reverse!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Spin it around!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Not that flower! The other one!
  −
- Which one?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- That flower.
  −
- I'm aiming at the flower!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That's a fat guy in a flowered shirt.
  −
I mean the giant pulsating flower
  −
 
  −
 
  −
made of millions of bees!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Pull forward. Nose down. Tail up.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Rotate around it.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- This is insane, Barry!
  −
- This's the only way I know how to fly.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Am I koo-koo-kachoo, or is this plane
  −
flying in an insect-like pattern?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Get your nose in there. Don't be afraid.
  −
Smell it. Full reverse!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Just drop it. Be a part of it.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Aim for the center!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Now drop it in! Drop it in, woman!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oome on, already.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Barry, we did it!
  −
You taught me how to fly!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Yes. No high-five!
  −
- Right.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Barry, it worked!
  −
Did you see the giant flower?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
What giant flower? Where? Of course
  −
I saw the flower! That was genius!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Thank you.
  −
- But we're not done yet.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Listen, everyone!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
This runway is covered
  −
with the last pollen
  −
 
  −
 
  −
from the last flowers
  −
available anywhere on Earth.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That means this is our last chance.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We're the only ones who make honey,
  −
pollinate flowers and dress like this.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
If we're gonna survive as a species,
  −
this is our moment! What do you say?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Are we going to be bees, orjust
  −
Museum of Natural History keychains?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
We're bees!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Keychain!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Then follow me! Except Keychain.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Hold on, Barry. Here.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You've earned this.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Yeah!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm a Pollen Jock! And it's a perfect
  −
fit. All I gotta do are the sleeves.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Oh, yeah.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That's our Barry.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Mom! The bees are back!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
If anybody needs
  −
to make a call, now's the time.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I got a feeling we'll be
  −
working late tonight!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Here's your change. Have a great
  −
afternoon! Oan I help who's next?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Would you like some honey with that?
  −
It is bee-approved. Don't forget these.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Milk, cream, cheese, it's all me.
  −
And I don't see a nickel!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Sometimes I just feel
  −
like a piece of meat!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I had no idea.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Barry, I'm sorry.
  −
Have you got a moment?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Would you excuse me?
  −
My mosquito associate will help you.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Sorry I'm late.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
He's a lawyer too?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I was already a blood-sucking parasite.
  −
All I needed was a briefcase.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Have a great afternoon!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Barry, I just got this huge tulip order,
  −
and I can't get them anywhere.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
No problem, Vannie.
  −
Just leave it to me.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You're a lifesaver, Barry.
  −
Oan I help who's next?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
All right, scramble, jocks!
  −
It's time to fly.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Thank you, Barry!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
That bee is living my life!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Let it go, Kenny.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- When will this nightmare end?!
  −
- Let it all go.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Beautiful day to fly.
  −
- Sure is.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Between you and me,
  −
I was dying to get out of that office.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
You have got
  −
to start thinking bee, my friend.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
- Thinking bee!
  −
- Me?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
Hold it. Let's just stop
  −
for a second. Hold it.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm sorry. I'm sorry, everyone.
  −
Oan we stop here?
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I'm not making a major life decision
  −
during a production number!
  −
 
  −
 
  −
All right. Take ten, everybody.
  −
Wrap it up, guys.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
I had virtually no rehearsal for that.
