Narration

  • According to all known laws of aviation, there is no way that 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 anyways. Because bees don't care what humans think is impossible.

Barry B. Benson

  • Thanks for the coffee. Sorry, I couldn't finish it. If I did, I'd be up the rest of my life.
  • You know I'm not attracted to the spiders! I know, with everyone else, it's the hottest thing, with the 8 legs and all... I can't get by that face.
  • Do you know what a Cinnabon is? It's bread! And frosting! And cinnamon! They heat it up! Really hot!
  • [scoffs] "Tournament of Roses". Roses can't do sports.
  • We're the only ones who make honey, pollinate flowers, and dress like this!
  • My sweater is Ralph Lauren, and I have no pants.
  • I don't remember the sun having a big 75 on it.
  • Moose blood guy!!
  • Help me!
  • Ya like jazz?
  • [last line] I had virtually no rehearsal for that.

Janet Benson

  • Barry why don't you use the stairs? Your father paid good money for those.
  • Barry I told you, stop flying in the house!
  • I wish he would always dress like that, it's so nice.

Martin Benson

  • Wave to us! We'll be in row 118,000.

Ken

  • WHY IS YOGURT NIGHT SO DIFFICULT?!
  • And for your information, I prefer sugar-free Artificial-Sweeteners, MADE BY MAN!
  • I've got issues!
  • OHHH!!! That bee is living my life!
  • When will this nightmare END?!
  • Match point! You can just start packing up honey, ‘cause I believe you’re about to EAT IT!!!
  • I know it’s got an aftertaste! I LIKE IT!!!

Dialogue

Barry: 3 days of grade school, 3 days of high school…
Adam: Those were so awkward.
Barry: 3 days of college…? I'm glad I took that one day off in the middle and just hiked around the hive.
Adam: You did come back different.

Buzzwell: Welcome, New Hive City graduating class of 9:15… and that concludes our graduation ceremonies.
Barry: Yay!
Buzzwell: And begins your career at Honex Industries!

Adam: Hey, did you hear about Frankie?
Barry: Yeah.
Adam: You going to his funeral?
Barry: No, I'm not going to his funeral. Everybody knows you sting someone, you die. You don't waste it on a squirrel. He was such a hothead.
Adam: Yeah, I guess he could've just gotten out of the way.

Martin: Our son, the stirrer.
Janet: [extremely happy] You're gonna be a stirrer?
Barry: Nobody's listening to me!
Martin: Wait'll you see the sticks I have for you.
Barry: I can say anything I want right now. I'm gonna get an ant tattoo!
Janet: [ignores Barry] Let's open up some fresh honey and celebrate!
Barry: Maybe I'll pierce my thorax. Shave my antennae. Shack it up with a grasshopper. Get a gold tooth, and start calling everybody "dawg"!

Martin: We're still here, Barry.
Janet: I told you not to yell at him. He doesn't have responsibility when you yell at him.
Martin: Then why are you yelling at me?
Janet: Because you don't listen!
Martin: Argh, I'm not listening to this.

[The Archies: Sugar, Sugar]
Vanessa: You coming? All set! Watch this!

Mr. Montgomery: Mr. Benson Bee, I'm going to ask what I think the entire court here would like to know... what exactly is your relationship to that woman? [Vanessa gasps]
Barry: We're friends.
Mr. Montgomery: Good friends?
Barry: Yes.
Mr. Montgomery: How good?
Barry: Now, hang on–
Mr. Montgomery: Do you live together?
Barry: Wait, that's not–
Mr. Montgomery: Are you her little... bedbug?
Mr. Montgomery: 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 county of nature God put before us. If we were to live the topsy-turvy world Mr. Benson imagines, just think of what if would mean? Maybe 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!

Vanessa: It's very hard to concentrate with that panicky tone in your voice!
Barry: It's not a tone. I'm panicking!

Barry: So what do you say, are we gonna be bees or just Museum of Natural History keychains?
Bees: We're bees!
Random bee: Keychain!
Barry: Then everyone follow me... except Keychain!
Pollen Jock: Hold on Barry, you earned this. [places a pollen jock jacket on Barry and the 3 pollen jocks cheer while Vanessa gives him a thumbs up]
Barry: I'm a pollen jock, and its a perfect fit. All I gotta do are the sleeves! [the pollen jocks toss Barry a nectar pack]
Adam: Nice.
Janet: [proudly] That's our Barry! [Martin nods proudly in agreement]

Barry: How about a suicide pact?
Vanessa: How would we do it?
Barry: I'll sting you, you step on me.
Vanessa: That just kills you twice.

Giraffe: Action figures, dolls, video games! It's all me! And they pasted my picture on every toy store! Everybody knows my kind are plant eaters, but I'd rather live on ants!
Barry: I have no idea.

Giraffe: You're not another lawyer too, are you?
Mooseblood: Sir, I was already was a bloodsucking parasite. All I needed was a briefcase.
