The '''causes of [[homosexuality]]''' are attributable to man's sinful nature, nurture and environment, and personal choice. How important each factor is, though, is an issue that is debated. Those from the most [[liberal]] school usually assume a philosophy of determinism, treating homosexuality as an identity or orientation which one has no choice over, and which cannot be changed. This belief is then used to  justify acting it out.<ref>Sylvia Thorson-Smith, ''Reconciling the broken silence'', p. 30</ref> The contrasting and warranted position is that homosexuality is a choice, that of yielding to ultimately harmful desires, and which choice is partly affected by nurture and environment.  '''''As with all choices, [[faith]] can overcome unwanted desire'''''.

The [[Bible]], being  the most comprehensive transcendent moral authority, abundantly deals with human nature and behavior and consistently manifests that the nature of man has not changed since [[the Fall]]. So the Bible is certainly the preeminent authoritative source when it comes to providing a framework when determining the causes of homosexuality. Man is shown to have been created as a perfectly made being (Gn. 1:31) - yet not as a robot - but as a being designed to be able to make choices, which thereby allowed him to distort his perfection. God from the beginning also joined male and female in lifelong marriage, and placed a priority on the family, and provided laws, as needed, for its health and preservation and that of society, while aberrations result from failure to abide by them.

===Nature of man and causes of homosexuality ===
−
because bees don't care
+
In the beginning, man disobeyed his Creator, and as part of the punishment for so doing both mankind and that which he was given stewardship of was negatively affected. In addition to physical decay and the suffering and natural death of living creatures being introduced into the world, (Gn. 2:17; 3:17-19; Rm. 5:12,17; 6:23; ) the Fall resulted in the nature of man demonstrating a certain proclivity to sin. However, this does not determine that a man must practice a certain sin, nor does it justify man giving into this attraction to sin, as God also gave man ability to resist sin. (Gn. 4:7)<ref>http://www.sbts.edu/documents/tschreiner/Homosexuality.pdf</ref>

what humans think is impossible.

 +
Certain negative physical effects of sin are also seen as being progressive, as with time more diseases and other aberrations seemed to have occurred, and laws against incest later became necessary. In addition, as men continued to act contrary to the basic moral laws which they knew innately and through creation, conscience and oral tradition, a formal body of law was given through [[Moses]], which detailed and codified the immutable morality God enjoins upon man. (Ex. 20; Dt. 4:8,9; Lv. 18; Gal. 3:19) Addition laws include ceremonial laws which the [[New Testament]] reveals were typological. ''For more information please see:'' [[Leviticus 18]].''

As regards homosexuality, from the beginning of the Bible and throughout, it consistently teaches that God only sexually joined opposite genders together, sanctifying them in marriage, having created  men and women uniquely compatible and complementary.(Gn. 2:18-24; Mt. 19:4; 1Cor. 11:8-12)<ref>http://www.cbmw.org/Articles/</ref>

In contrast to what God had ordained by design and decree, homosexuality is one of many sins which are a result of man yielding to his sinful nature, and is a form of fornication, although a most perverse kind. The prohibition of it is given along with sexual relations with animals, (Lv. 18:23) and is  clearly condemned wherever it is manifestly dealt with. (Lv. 18:22; 20:13; Mk. 7:21; Rm. 1:20-27; 1Cor. 6:9; 1Tim. 1:10)

The Bible, as well as history, also evidences that while there are three areas in which man sins, those of lust for pleasure, possessions and power, (1Jn. 2:16) individuals may differ as regards which type of sins present the greatest temptation for them, with genetics playing at least a part in that. That judgment upon a people who gave into a specific sin could result in a genetic predisposition to that same sin among their offspring may be speculated, but it is not proven.

The Bible  provides a clear link between the adherence of a family or a nation to the laws of God and the moral choices of offspring. (Prov. 22:6) The Bible also positively examples close father-son and familial relationships, and may be seen to partially implicate detachment with rebellion. (Gn. 37–50; 2 Sam. 13-18) Studies today have shown that [[Religious Upbringing and Culture Affects Rates of Homosexuality|religious upbringing and culture can strongly affect rates of homosexuality]].

The record of [[Sodom]], as well as accounts of nations elsewhere, testify that living within the environment of people where [[iniquity]] abounds is conducive to furthering the same iniquity among succeeding generations, resulting in the necessity of Divine judgment when nations became given over to such. (Lv. 18:24; 20:22; Dt. 18:12; 28; Jer. 14:9,10; Rm. 2:2)

In Genesis 19, the city of Sodom is revealed as a place in which men sexually lusted after men, from which the term "sodomy" was derived (like as homosexuals use the term "gay", although this is contradictory in the end), and Jude 7 refers to Sodom and its region being given to fornication, including that of unnatural relations.

In Ezekiel 16:49 the general iniquity of Sodom and its "sisters" is given as "pride, fulness of bread, and abundance of idleness" and general indifference to the needy. The next verse proceeds to inform that "the Sodomites were haughty, and committed abomination before me: therefore I took them away as I saw good." The word for ''abomination'' here is ''tô‛êbah'', which  is not the word often used for ritual uncleanness, but is often used for sexual sin, in particular sexual sins and including sodomy. (Lv.18:22; 26–27,29,30; 20:13; Dt. 23:18; 24:4 1Ki. 14:24; Ezek. 22:11; 33:26) Sodom is also associated more with sexual sins than with any other ''physical'' type of sin.

What the Bible, as well as secular history, reveals is that prevalent homosexuality is concomitant with pride, affluence, increased free time, and selfish indulgence and carelessness.<ref>[http://peacebyjesus.witnesstoday.org/Homosex_versus_the_Bible.html Homosexual relations and the Bible: see Genesis 19 to Ezekiel 16:49]</ref> Therefore, rebellion against God's laws and order and the resultant environmental factors are seen to be a cause in promoting sensuality and homosexuality.

In [[Romans 1]], God, through the [[apostle Paul]], condemns both  male and female homoeroticism, which, as a cultural practice, is shown to be a manifestation and a result of idolatry, in which man progressively acted contrary to that which God has revealed by creation, by design and normality. This is morality which is confirmed by written decree (the Law), as the next chapter declares. As a result of this continued rebellion, which was partly manifest in God being reduced to an image like unto corruptible creatures (like as today with homosexuals construing Christ to be homosexual, or sanctioning it, as well as nature effectively being worshiped), "God gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves." (v. 24)

It is also stated that a certain afflictive punishment(s) of the body were incurred by those men who engaged in relations with each other. (v. 27) Unless repentance takes place, worse consequences will follow. (Rv. 21:28)

A perfect report card, all B's.

While some seek to render this chapter as only condemning homosexual relations when done as part of idolatry, the condemnation is not due to its association with paganism, rather as it inherently contrary to that which God ordained, then it is a manifestation of false religion, regardless of its form, though in ancient times in which religion was an inseparable part of culture, then formal idolatry was what was more manifested. Romans 1 proceeds to show that homosexuality is not alone as a fruit of idolatry, but that this particular pernicious physical sin is one of many inherently evil things. (Rm. 1:28-32)  ''For more information please see:'' [[Romans 1]].

Very proud.

In summary, God's eternal power is manifest in His [[creation]] (Romans 1:18-20).  Nonetheless, certain people chose to worship the creature more than the Creator (Romans 1:21-25).  Therefore, God gave them up to homosexuality and other sins and gave them over to a reprobate mind (Romans 1:26-32).  As an example of the truth of this teaching, [[feminist]]s, wishing to deny the [[Women#New Testament statements on the role of women|God-given role of women]], often engage in [[goddess]] worship and other forms of [[idolatry]]<ref>[http://www.leaderu.com/orgs/probe/docs/goddess.html "Probe Ministries: Goddess Worship," by Russ Wise]</ref> and as a consequence are often given up to lesbianism.<ref>[http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=56458 Hetero woman: Feminism turned me into a lesbian], from [[WorldNetDaily]]</ref>

=== Conclusion of Biblical explanation ===

- You got lint on your fuzz.
  −
- Ow! That's me!
     −
 
+
What is  revealed in the Bible is that homosexuality is a practice due to man yielding to his sinful nature and disobeying the good laws of God, and misusing, among other things, his sexual abilities. This disobedience itself is idolatry (whatever holds your chief allegiance is your god, at least at that time), while continued idolatry results in homosexuality as a practice, as God delivers one over to perverse desires. In addition, individual and societal disobedience to the laws of God creates an environment which is conducive to perpetuating and further intensifying iniquity, which if continued, in time requires judgment. Studies today have shown that [[Religious Upbringing and Culture Affects Rates of Homosexuality|Religious upbringing and culture can strongly affect rates of homosexuality]].

Some studies indicate environmental factors can be involved in persons becoming homosexuals. Stanton L. Jones, Mark A. Yarhouse state in ''Homosexuality: the use of scientific research in the church's moral debate'' (and a main source for this section),
−
- Hey, Adam.
+
<blockquote>
−
- Hey, Barry.
+
The origins of homosexuality are not clearly understood by scientists, and the topic is a subject of hot debate. Theories and and empirical studies, which often contrast sharply, abound. The theories about the [[etiology]]  of homosexuality fall into two very large categories: theories that point to nature (that is, biological variables) and theories that point to nurture (that is, the influence of experience, of psychological variables." (p. 52).
 +
</blockquote>
   −
 
+
Those who emphasize nurture, sometimes known as the ''[[psychoanalysis|psychoanalytical theory]]'', see powerful psychological forces at work, shaping and molding children from their birth, while those who emphasize nature contend that early homosexual traits attest to a biological cause. (p.&nbsp;53)

Despite many psychological studies which indicate that the parent-child relationship, early childhood development, early homosexual experiences, and childhood abuse foster homosexuality, liberals tend to reject the environmental aspect, and favor a biological influence.<ref>David G. Myers, ''A level of explanations view'', Psychology of Christianity: four views. pp. 54-83</ref> This is then used to render homosexuals to be slaves to genes, and justified in acting it out.

In his 1980 work ''Overcoming Homosexuality'', Robert Kronemeyer writes: "With rare exceptions, homosexuality is neither inherited nor the result of some glandular disturbance or the scrambling of genes or chromosomes. Homosexuals are made, not born 'that way.' I firmly believe that homosexuality is a learned response to early painful experiences and that it can be unlearned. For those homosexuals who are unhappy with their life and find effective therapy, it is 'curable.'<ref>Robert Kronemeyer, ''Overcoming Homosexuality'', p. 7 (New York: Macmillan Publishing Co., 1980)</ref>

Similarly, in a 1989 ''[[USA Today]]'' article, [[San Francisco]] State University professor of psychology John DeCecco, and the former editor of the 25-volume, ''Journal of Homosexuality'', stated, "The idea that people are born into one type of sexual behavior is entirely foolish". Homosexuality is "a behavior, not a condition," and something that some people can and do change, just like they sometimes change other tastes and personality traits."<ref>Kim Painter, ''A Biological Theory for Sexual Preference'', USA Today, 1 January 1989, p. 4D</ref>

The psychoanalytical theory is the historical position, which implicates a detached, rejecting or absent father, often along with a close bond to the mother, as working, on the conscious and unconscious level, against a secure sexual identity. Also contributing to this can be a so called [[Emotional Incest Syndrome]], for example when a mother who has animosity toward the father, or men in general, and who works to present him negatively, and to make the child side with her.  
−
- Hear about Frankie?
  −
- Yeah.

One of the earliest studies supporting this position was that of Irving Bieber and associates.<ref>Bieber, ''Homsexuality: A psychoanalytical study of male homosexuality'' (1962)</ref> Comparison of 106 homosexuals with 100 male heterosexuals showed that mothers of the former had enmeshed seductive type relationships with their sons, while their fathers were detached, distant or rejecting. This study was contested by some who charged the researchers with bias, but a further study by Ray B. Evans, which also compared homosexuals with heterosexuals, reported similar results, this time among self-identified  homosexuals who had never sought treatment.<ref>Ray b. Evans, "Childhood parental relationships of homosexual men", ''Journal of Consulting and clinical psychology'', 33. (1969), pp. 129-33.</ref>

Based upon his work with 200 male homosexuals, Gerard van den Aardweg stated that 79 percent described their mother as "overanxious", or "overconcerned" about them; their safety, health, and being overly sentimental when they met with some hardship, as well as manifesting other aspects of over-mothering. In addition, in 71 percent of homosexual cases, "the most important factor was the father's detachedness or nonparticipation in the son's upbringing. The fathers of 38 percent of the men were so hypercritical that the sons were made to feel either rejected and/or inferior.<ref>Gerard van den Aardweg, ''on the origins and treatment of homosexuality'' (1985), pp.184-85.</ref>

Another  study of about 1500 homosexuals showed much less influence by the mother, while far more reported an unaffectionate or detached father, and approximately half of homosexuals reported they had negative feelings toward their fathers, versus 29 percent of heterosexuals.<ref>Bell, Weinberg, Hammersmith, ''Sexual preference: Its development in men and women'' (1981).</ref>

While these factors are conducive to homosexuality, it should be stressed that these do not ensure that children raised this way will become homosexual, nor are these factors alone in influencing it.

Childhood sexual abuse is well attested to demonstrate a correlation to the incidence of homosexuality among those affected by it. A large national survey of almost 35,000 Americans showed that more than three times as many men and women who had been sexually abused as children became homosexuals, versus that of heterosexuals.<ref>7.4 percent or homosexual men and 3.1 percent of females, versus 2.0 percent  of heterosexual men and 0.8 percent women.</ref><ref>Laumann, Gagnon, Michael, and Michaels, ''The social organization of homosexuality:...'', (1994) p. 344</ref>  Another study reported that 58 percent of male adolescents who later became homosexuals suffered sexual abuse as children, while 90 percent who did not suffer sexual abuse identified themselves as heterosexuals.<ref>Sheir and Johnson, ''Sexual victimization of boys:... (1988) pp. 1189-93</ref> In addition, 43 percent of male homosexuals reported sexual activity with another male during the ages of 10-12,  versus 9 percent of heterosexuals.<ref>Manosevitz, "Early sexual behavior in adult homosexual and heterosexual males", ''Journal of abnormal psychology'', 76 (1970), 396-402.</ref>

===Educational indoctrination===
−
Boy, quite a bit of pomp...
+
As part of the liberal ideology in modern [[education]], and as a result of psychological tactics used by homosexual [[activist]]s, schools have increasingly fostered the promotion of homosexuality, whether as part of official policy through homosexual activists working with or in schools. As a form of indoctrination which begins at the kindergarten level, homosexuality is deceptively treated as "healthy" and "normal", with students at very impressionable ages sometimes being influenced to experiment with homosexual behavior. This is often done under the rubric of [[HIV]] instruction of preventing [[suicide]] by homosexuals, and preventing "[[homophobia]]".<ref>[http://www.cwfa.org/articledisplay.asp?id=12546&department=MEDIA&categoryid=family CWA: School Tells Kids to Hide Pro-‘Gay’ Propaganda From Parents], Concerned Women for America, 3/13/2007</ref><ref>[http://www.missionamerica.com/agenda.php Fighting the Gay Agenda in Schools Articles], Mission America</ref><ref>[http://www.chroniclewatch.com/2009/06/17/indoctrination-of-youth/  Roberto Santiago, The Indoctrination of our Youth],The Chronicle Watch, June 17, 2009</ref><ref>[http://www.missionamerica.com/oldagenda26.php GLSEN, Corruption and Crime],  Mission America</ref><ref>[https://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=127050 'Hate' laws could label 5-year-olds 'offenders'] WorldNetDaily, March 05, 2010</ref><ref>[https://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=126233 'Czar' sees transgender school goals in reach], WorldNetDaily, February 25, 2010</ref><ref>[https://www.wnd.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=54683 District gags 14-year-olds after 'gay' indoctrination], WorldNetDaily,  March 13, 2007</ref>

Environmental chemicals, specifically sex steroids such as [[xenoestrogens]] and [[xenoandrogens]], change the brain's gender preference resulting in homosexuality in nature. According to Melissa Hines, "This article reviews the evidence regarding prenatal influences of gonadal steroids on human sexual orientation, as well as sex-typed childhood behaviors that predict subsequent sexual orientation. The evidence supports a role for prenatal testosterone exposure in the development of sex-typed interests in childhood, as well as in sexual orientation in later life, at least for some individuals... The empirical record generally supports this model for a wide range of brain regions and behaviors that differ on the average for male and female animals. For example, treating female rodents with testosterone early in life decreases their female-typical behavior in adulthood, and increases their male-typical behavior."<ref name=hines>{{cite journal |last=Hines |first=Melissa |last2= |first2= |date=2011-02-17 |title=Prenatal endocrine influences on sexual orientation and on sexually differentiated childhood behavior |url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3296090/ |journal=Frontiers in Neuroendocrinology |volume=32 |issue=2 |pages=170–182 |doi=10.1016/j.yfrne.2011.02.006 |pmid=21333673}}</ref>

According to Bernard Weiss, "disagreements arise partly from arguments about the roots of homosexuality, and about questions of gender identity and others that at one time would have seemed quite remote from neurotoxicology."

The belief that homosexuality has a biological cause can be traced back to the preliminary findings of neuroscientist Dr. Simon LeVay. In 1991 LeVay's studied the brains of 41 cadavers which included 19 homosexual males, and claimed that "a tiny area believed to control sexual activity [the hypothalamus] was less than half the size in the gay men than in the heterosexuals."<ref>Charlene Crabb, ''Are Some Men Born to Be Homosexual?'', U. S. News & World Report, 9 September 1991, p. 58</ref><ref>S. LeVay, "A Difference in Hypothalamic Structure Between heterosexual and Homosexual Men," Science 253 (1991), pp. 1034-37</ref>  This study was immediately seized upon by many as  proof that homosexuality was biologically determined.

*6. And as William Byne noted, LeVay's work "has not been replicated, and human neuroanatomical studies of this kind have a very poor track record for reproducibility. Indeed, procedures similar to those LeVay used to identify nuclei have previously led researchers astray".<ref>Byne, William (1994), “The Biological Evidence Challenged,” Scientific American, May, 1994, 270: p. 53</ref>

*7. The conclusions were that which were sought by the researcher. Dr. LeVay, a homosexual himself, confessed that his study was not entirely a dispassionate scientific endeavor,<ref>Simon LeVay on The Phil Donahue Show, ''Genetically Gay: Born Gay or Become Gay?'', January 3, 1992</ref> He also later stated, "I did not prove that homosexuality is genetic, or find a genetic cause for being gay."<ref>Byrd, A.

Robinson (2001), ''Homosexuality: The Innate-Immutability Argument Finds No Basis in Science'', The Salt Lake Tribune</ref><ref>http://www.sltrib.com/2001/may/05272001/commenta/100523.htm</ref>

Two prominent geneticists, Paul Billings and Jonathan Beckwith, commenting on the quality of the LeVay research, stated that  LeVay, "could not really be certain about his subject's sexual preferences, since they were dead", and that his "research design and subject sample did not allow others to determine whether it was sexual behavior, drug use, or disease history that was correlated with the observed differences among the subjects' brains."  And in addition, it was very likely that LeVay's method of defining homosexuality would "create inaccurate or inconsistent study groups." <ref>P. Billings and J. Beckwith, "Born Gay?" Technology Review, July 1993, p. 60,61</ref>

Another study, published in ''Proceedings of the National Academy of Science of the United States of America'', examined the ''anterior commissure'' (a structure that divides the left and right halves of the brain) of male heterosexuals and homosexual men, most of whom died of AIDS. The study shows that the anterior commissure was larger in women and in 27 of the 30 homosexual men than in heterosexual men.<ref>L. Allen, et al., ''Sexual Orientation and the Size of the Anterior Commissure in the Human Brain,'' Proceedings of the National Academy of Science of the United States of America 89, no. 15 (1992), pp. 7199-7202</ref>

Here again, how AIDS might have factored in this difference is an issue, and the findings of this study were overall in contradiction to another study published in 1988, which  found, in part, that the anterior commissure was larger in men than in women.<ref>S. Demeter et al., "Morphometric analysis of the human corpus callosum and anterior commissure," Human Neurobiology 6 1988), pp. 219-26</ref>

Sociologist Steven Goldberg, Ph.D. states,

Wow.
+
<blockquote>
 +
Virtually all of the evidence argues against there being a determinative physiological causal factor and I know of no researcher who believes that such a determinative factor exists...such factors play a predisposing, not a determinative role...I know of no one in the field who argues that homosexuality can be explained without reference to environmental factors.
 +
</blockquote>

Goldberg also expressed, "Gay criticism has not addressed the classic family configuration"; it has merely "asserted away the considerable evidence" for the existence of family factors. Studies which attempt to disprove the existence of the classic family pattern in homosexuality are "convincing only to those with a need to believe." <ref>S. Goldberg, ''When Wish Replaces Thought: Why So Much of What You Believe is False'' (1994), Buffalo, New York: Prometheus Books</ref>

Like all complex behavioral and mental states, homosexuality is...neither exclusively biological nor exclusively psychological, but results from an as-yet-difficult-to-quantitate mixture of genetic factors, intrauterine influences...postnatal environment (such as parent, sibling and cultural behavior), and a complex series of repeatedly reinforced choices occurring at critical phases of development.<ref>J.

Childhood manifestations of gender non-conformity such as consistent preference by a boy for the clothing, company and play things (dolls, etc.) of girls over that of boys is generally seen as predisposing such to homosexuality.<ref>Stanton L.

Yarhouse, ''Homosexuality: the use of scientific research in the church's moral debate'', pp. 52-92</ref> However, this is not always the case, and many children who manifest gender non-conformity are simply trying to discover what gender is.

The Bible shows that while nurture and environment can make one more predisposed to certain types of behavior, man's sinful nature can also deceive one into believing that sinful behaviors are not sin, while yielding to sin reduces ones ability to resist it.  Secular studies also indicate that most homosexuals have been attracted to the opposite gender.

A research project (2004) of Robert Goetze identified 84 articles or books that contain some relevance to the possibility of sexual orientation change.

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.

  −
- Good evening. I'm Bob Bumble.
  −
- And I'm Jeanette Ohung.

  −
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.
