- According to all known laws
- of aviation,
- there is no way a bee
- should be able to fly.
- Its wings are too small to get
- its fat little body off the ground.
- The bee, of course, flies anyway
- because bees don't care
- what humans think is impossible.
- Yellow, black. Yellow, black.
- Yellow, black. Yellow, black.
- Ooh, black and yellow!
- Let's shake it up a little.
- Barry! Breakfast is ready!
- Ooming!
- Hang on a second.
- Hello?
- - Barry?
- - Adam?
- - Oan you believe this is happening?
- - I can't. I'll pick you up.
- Looking sharp.
- Use the stairs. Your father
- paid good money for those.
- Sorry. I'm excited.
- Here's the graduate.
- We're very proud of you, son.
- A perfect report card, all B's.
- Very proud.
- Ma! I got a thing going here.
- - You got lint on your fuzz.
- - Ow! That's me!
- - Wave to us! We'll be in row 118,000.
- - Bye!
- Barry, I told you,
- stop flying in the house!
- - Hey, Adam.
- - Hey, Barry.
- - Is that fuzz gel?
- - A little. Special day, graduation.
- Never thought I'd make it.
- Three days grade school,
- three days high school.
- Those were awkward.
- Three days college. I'm glad I took
- a day and hitchhiked around the hive.
- You did come back different.
- - Hi, Barry.
- - Artie, growing a mustache? Looks good.
- - Hear about Frankie?
- - Yeah.
- - You going to the funeral?
- - No, I'm not going.
- Everybody knows,
- sting someone, you die.
- Don't waste it on a squirrel.
- Such a hothead.
- I guess he could have
- just gotten out of the way.
- I love this incorporating
- an amusement park into our day.
- That's why we don't need vacations.
- Boy, quite a bit of pomp...
- under the circumstances.
- - Well, Adam, today we are men.
- - We are!
- - Bee-men.
- - Amen!
- Hallelujah!
- Students, faculty, distinguished bees,
- please welcome Dean Buzzwell.
- Welcome, New Hive Oity
- graduating class of...
- ...9:15.
- That concludes our ceremonies.
- And begins your career
- at Honex Industries!
- Will we pick ourjob today?
- I heard it's just orientation.
- Heads up! Here we go.
- Keep your hands and antennas
- inside the tram at all times.
- - Wonder what it'll be like?
- - A little scary.
- Welcome to Honex,
- a division of Honesco
- and a part of the Hexagon Group.
- This is it!
- Wow.
- Wow.
- We know that you, as a bee,
- have worked your whole life
- to get to the point where you
- can work for your whole life.
- Honey begins when our valiant Pollen
- Jocks bring the nectar to the hive.
- Our top-secret formula
- is automatically color-corrected,
- scent-adjusted and bubble-contoured
- into this soothing sweet syrup
- with its distinctive
- golden glow you know as...
- Honey!
- - That girl was hot.
- - She's my cousin!
- - She is?
- - Yes, we're all cousins.
- - Right. You're right.
- - At Honex, we constantly strive
- to improve every aspect
- of bee existence.
- These bees are stress-testing
- a new helmet technology.
- - What do you think he makes?
- - Not enough.
- Here we have our latest advancement,
- the Krelman.
- - What does that do?
- - Oatches that little strand of honey
- that hangs after you pour it.
- Saves us millions.
- Oan anyone work on the Krelman?
- Of course. Most bee jobs are
- small ones. But bees know
- that every small job,
- if it's done well, means a lot.
- But choose carefully
- because you'll stay in the job
- you pick for the rest of your life.
- The same job the rest of your life?
- I didn't know that.
- What's the difference?
- You'll be happy to know that bees,
- as a species, haven't had one day off
- in 27 million years.
- So you'll just work us to death?
- We'll sure try.
- Wow! That blew my mind!
- "What's the difference?"
- How can you say that?
- One job forever?
- That's an insane choice to have to make.
- I'm relieved. Now we only have
- to make one decision in life.
- But, Adam, how could they
- never have told us that?
- Why would you question anything?
- We're bees.
- We're the most perfectly
- functioning society on Earth.
- You ever think maybe things
- work a little too well here?
- Like what? Give me one example.
- I don't know. But you know
- what I'm talking about.
- Please clear the gate.
- Royal Nectar Force on approach.
- Wait a second. Oheck it out.
- - Hey, those are Pollen Jocks!
- - Wow.
- I've never seen them this close.
- They know what it's like
- outside the hive.
- Yeah, but some don't come back.
- - Hey, Jocks!
- - Hi, Jocks!
- You guys did great!
- You're monsters!
- You're sky freaks! I love it! I love it!
- - I wonder where they were.
- - I don't know.
- Their day's not planned.
- Outside the hive, flying who knows
- where, doing who knows what.
- You can'tjust decide to be a Pollen
- Jock. You have to be bred for that.
- Right.
- Look. That's more pollen
- than you and I will see in a lifetime.
- It's just a status symbol.
- Bees make too much of it.
- Perhaps. Unless you're wearing it
- and the ladies see you wearing it.
- Those ladies?
- Aren't they our cousins too?
- Distant. Distant.
- Look at these two.
- - Oouple of Hive Harrys.
- - Let's have fun with them.
- It must be dangerous
- being a Pollen Jock.
- Yeah. Once a bear pinned me
- against a mushroom!
- He had a paw on my throat,
- and with the other, he was slapping me!
- - Oh, my!
- - I never thought I'd knock him out.
- What were you doing during this?
- Trying to alert the authorities.
- I can autograph that.
- A little gusty out there today,
- wasn't it, comrades?
- Yeah. Gusty.
- We're hitting a sunflower patch
- six miles from here tomorrow.
- - Six miles, huh?
- - Barry!
- A puddle jump for us,
- but maybe you're not up for it.
- - Maybe I am.
- - You are not!
- We're going 0900 at J-Gate.
- What do you think, buzzy-boy?
- Are you bee enough?
- I might be. It all depends
- on what 0900 means.
- Hey, Honex!
- Dad, you surprised me.
- You decide what you're interested in?
- - Well, there's a lot of choices.
- - But you only get one.
- Do you ever get bored
- doing the same job every day?
- Son, let me tell you about stirring.
- You grab that stick, and you just
- move it around, and you stir it around.
- You get yourself into a rhythm.
- It's a beautiful thing.
- You know, Dad,
- the more I think about it,
- maybe the honey field
- just isn't right for me.
- You were thinking of what,
- making balloon animals?
- That's a bad job
- for a guy with a stinger.
- Janet, your son's not sure
- he wants to go into honey!
- - Barry, you are so funny sometimes.
- - I'm not trying to be funny.
- You're not funny! You're going
- into honey. Our son, the stirrer!
- - You're gonna be a stirrer?
- - No one's listening to me!
- Wait till you see the sticks I have.
- I could say anything right now.
- I'm gonna get an ant tattoo!
- Let's open some honey and celebrate!
- Maybe I'll pierce my thorax.
- Shave my antennae.
- Shack up with a grasshopper. Get
- a gold tooth and call everybody "dawg"!
- I'm so proud.
- - We're starting work today!
- - Today's the day.
- Oome on! All the good jobs
- will be gone.
- Yeah, right.
- Pollen counting, stunt bee, pouring,
