Acting Apiarially Stupid Now, I'm not up on my Portuguese, but I'm pretty sure that big, scary, red sign does not say "Honey." Not to mention the fact that there's a sign that reads "DANGER" above the door on the inside, and they're clearly speaking English. But ignoring all signs (literal and otherwise) of danger, the father leads his son on a honey heist headed for horrific disaster!

The Bees and the Humans Share the Cosmos The UN won't listen! So the bees take matters into their own wings. They crash through the windows and threaten the delegation! And now...either we share the domination of Earth with the bees...or they'll kill us all. Ouch! That stings!
