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. And Jeanette Chung.
|
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, classy 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. Case number 4475,
|
Superior Court 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! Cloning! 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!
|
Call your first witness.
|
So, Mr. Klauss Vanderhayden of Honey Farms, big company you have.
