  Ken : Ew. Poo water.

  Adam Flayman : You did come back different.

• Barry B. Benson : Larry, bees have never afraid to change the world. I mean, what about Bee Columbus, Bee Ghandi, Bee-Jesus?

• Adam Flayman : Did you hear about Frankie?

  Barry B. Benson : Yeah.

  Adam Flayman : I guess he could have just gotten out of the way.

• Barry B. Benson : What is that?

  Ken : Italian Vogue.

  Barry B. Benson : Mamma mia! That's a lot of pages.

  Ken : It's a lot of ads.

• Barry B. Benson : We demand an end to the glorification of the bear as nothing more than a vicious, smelly, ill-tempered, big-headed stink machine. I believe we all know what they do in the woods.

• Barry B. Benson : He's no goodfella, He's a BADfella!

• Mooseblood : Stand perfectly still!

  Barry B. Benson : You're not dead?

  Mooseblood : Do I look like I'm dead! Hey, man! They will wipe anything that moves. Where are you headed?

  Mooseblood : I'm going to Alaska. Moose blood. Crazy stuff! Blows your head off.

  Barry B. Benson : [to a grasshopper]  What about you?

  Mooseblood : He really is dead.

  Barry B. Benson : All right.

• Barry B. Benson : Yes, but who can deny the heart that is yearning?

• Vanessa : What happened here?

  Barry B. Benson : I tried talking to these guys, and then there was a dustbuster, a toupee and a liferaft exploded... now one's bald, one's in a boat, and they're both unconscious!

  Vanessa : Is that another bee joke?

• Barry B. Benson : Sorry I'm late, where should I sit?

  Rose Parade Princess : Who are you?

  Barry B. Benson : I believe I'm the pea.

  Rose Parade Princess : The pea is supposed to be under the mattresses!

  Barry B. Benson : Not in this fairy tale sweetheart.

• Adam Flayman : This is over!

  Barry B. Benson : Eat this.

  [shoves one of Vanessa's crumbs into Adam's mouth] 

  Adam Flayman : This is not over! What was that?

  Barry B. Benson : They call it a crumb.

  Adam Flayman : That's so stingin' stripey!

  Barry B. Benson : And that's not even what they eat. That just falls off what they eat.

• Barry B. Benson : Quite a lot of pomp, under the circumstances.

• Vanessa : How did you learn to do that?

  Barry B. Benson : Do what?

  Vanessa : That, that... the talking thing?

  Barry B. Benson : Same way you did, I guess. Mama, dada, honey, you pick it up.

• Barry B. Benson : I don't remember the sun having a big 75 on it.

• Barry B. Benson : Mister Sting, thank you for coming. Your name intrigues me, I must say. Where have I heard that name before?

  Sting : I was in a band called The Police.

  Barry B. Benson : But, you've never been a police officer of any kind, have you?

  Sting : No, I haven't.

  Barry B. Benson : No, you haven't. And so you see, this is just another example of bee culture being casually stolen for nothing more than a prance-about stage name!

  Sting : Oh, please.

  Barry B. Benson : Have you ever been stung, Mr. Sting? Because I feel stung, Sting... or should I say, Gordon M. Sumner?

  Layton T. Montgomery : That's not his real name? You idiots!

• Cow : Milk, cream, it's all me, and I don't see a nickel!

  Barry B. Benson : Uh-huh. Uh-huh.

  Cow : Sometimes I just feel like a piece of meat!

  Barry B. Benson : I had no idea.

• Barry B. Benson : 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 going to survive as a species, this is our moment. So what do you all say? Are we going to be bees, or just Museum of Natural History key chains?

  Bees : We're bees!

  Keychain Bee : Keychain!

  Barry B. Benson : Then follow me! Except keychain.

• Barry B. Benson : What in the name of mighty Hercules is this? How did this get here? Cute Bee? Golden Blossom? Ray Liotta Private Select?

  Vanessa : What is he, an actor?

  Barry B. Benson : I've never heard of him. What is this doing here?

  Vanessa : For people. We eat it.

  Barry B. Benson : You eat it? You don't have enough food of your own? Where did you get this?

  Vanessa : From bees. Bees make it...

  Barry B. Benson : I know who makes it! And it's hard to make it! There's heating, and stirring, and there's this big krelman thing.

  Vanessa : It's organic.

  Barry B. Benson : It's *our* ganic!

  Vanessa : It's just honey, Barry.

  Barry B. Benson : It's just... What? This is our whole life, and you're taking it without permission! This is stealing! You're taking our homes, our schools, our hospitals... It's all we have! And it's on sale? I'm gonna get to the bottom of this. I'm gonna get to the bottom of all of it!

• Barry B. Benson : I see you also made Honeyburton and Honron!

  Klauss Vanderhayden : Yes, they provide beekeepers for our farms.

  Barry B. Benson : Beekeeper. I find that a very disturbing term if I have to say. I don't imagine you employ any beefreers, do you?

  Klauss Vanderhayden : No.

  Barry B. Benson : I'm sorry, I couldn't hear you.

  Klauss Vanderhayden : No.

  Barry B. Benson : No. Because you don't free bees, you keep bees.

  [a bear shaped jar of honey is shown] 

  Barry B. Benson : In fact, it seems you thought a bear would be an appropriate image for a jar of honey.

  Klauss Vanderhayden : Well, they're lovable creatures. Yogi Bear, Fozzie Bear... Build-a-Bear?

  Barry B. Benson : Yeah. You mean like this?

  [a bear shows up at the courtroom] 

  Barry B. Benson : Bears kill bees! How'd you like his head crashing through your living room? Biting into your couch? Spitting out your throw pillows? Roar, roar. Okay, that's enough. Take him away.

  [the bear goes back through the door] 

• Ken : I think something stinks in here!

  [sprays Barry with the air freshener] 

  Barry B. Benson : I love the smell of flowers.

  Ken : Yeah? How do you like the smell of FLAMES?

  [Holds up a lighter in front of the air freshener] 

  Barry B. Benson : Not as much!

• Vanessa : Are you all right?

  Barry B. Benson : Yeah. What was that? Clip and Save circular?

  Vanessa : Yes, it was. How did you know?

  Barry B. Benson : Felt like about ten pages. 75 is pretty much our limit.

  Vanessa : You sure got that down to a science.

  Barry B. Benson : Oh, we have to. You know, I lost a cousin to Italian Vogue.

• Adam Flayman : He's dating a human florist!

  Janet Benson : GASP

  Adam Flayman : And they makeout!

  Janet Benson : Barry...

  Barry B. Benson : We do not makeout.

  Adam Flayman : You wish you could!

• Barry B. Benson : Remember what Van said, why is your life more valuable than mine?

  Ken : Funny, I just can't seem to recall that!

• Barry B. Benson : ...when he finally gets there, he runs up the steps, into the church, the wedding is on and he says "Watermelon? I thought you said Guatamelan, why would I marry a watermelon?" ha ha ha

  Vanessa : Oh! is that uh, a bee joke?

• Little Girl : Hi, bee!

  Barry B. Benson : Hi!

• Adam Flayman : You met someone? Was she beeish? Not a wasp! Your parents will kill you. Is she a cicada?

  Barry B. Benson : Nah.

  Adam Flayman : Is it a spider?

  Barry B. Benson : You know, I've never been attracted to spiders. I know they're the hottest thing around, with the eight legs, but I just can't get past that face.

• Layton T. 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?

  Barry B. Benson : We're friends.

  Layton T. Montgomery : Good friends?

  Barry B. Benson : Yes.

  Layton T. Montgomery : How good?

  Barry B. Benson : Now, hang on...

  Layton T. Montgomery : Do you live together?

  Barry B. Benson : Wait, that's not...

  Layton T. Montgomery : Are you her little... bedbug?

• Barry B. Benson : Ya know, I'm going to drain the ol' stinger.

• Barry B. Benson : Mr. Liotta, first, may I offer my belated congratulations on your Emmy win for a guest spot on ER in 2005.

  Ray Liotta : Thank you, thank you, hahaha!

  Barry B. Benson : I also see from your resume that you're devilishly handsome but with a churning inner turmoil that's always ready to blow.

  Ray Liotta : I enjoy what I do. Is that a crime?

  Barry B. Benson : Not yet it isn't. But is this what's come to you, Mr. Liotta? Exploiting tiny helpless bees so you don't have to rehearse your part and learn your lines, sir?

  Ray Liotta : Watch it, Benson! I can blow right now!

  Barry B. Benson : This isn't a good fella, this is a bad fella!

• Barry B. Benson : [as he take pictures]  Bee honey. Our honey is being brazenly stolen on a massive scale!

  [to his parents] 

  Barry B. Benson : This is worse than anything bears have done! I intend to do something.

  Janet Benson : Oh, Barry, stop.

  Martin Benson : Who told you humans are taking our honey? That's a rumor.

  Barry B. Benson : Do these look like rumors?

  Uncle Carl : That's a conspiracy theory. These are obviously doctored photos.

• Barry B. Benson : Do you know what a Cinnabon is?

  Adam Flayman : No.

  Barry B. Benson : It's bread!

  Adam Flayman : [pulls Barry into his cubicle]  Come in here!

  Barry B. Benson : And cinnamon!

  Adam Flayman : Be quiet!

  Barry B. Benson : And frosting! They heat it up!

  Adam Flayman : Sit down!

  Barry B. Benson : Really hot!

  Adam Flayman : Listen to me! We are not them. We're us. There's us and there's them.

  Barry B. Benson : Yes, but who can deny the heart that is yearning...

  Adam Flayman : There's no yearning. Stop yearning. Listen to me. You have got to start thinking bee, my friend. Thinking bee.

• Janet Benson : [to Martin; as they approach Barry is laying on a raft in a pool full of honey]  There he is. He's in the pool.

  Martin Benson : Do you know what your problem is, Barry?

  Barry B. Benson : I gotta start thinking bee?

  Martin Benson : Barry, how much longer is this going to go on? It's been three days. I don't understand why you're not working.

  Barry B. Benson : Well, I've got a lot of big life decisions I'm thinking about.

  Martin Benson : What life? You have no life! You have no job! You're barley a bee!

• Adam Flayman : So, uh, who is she?

  Barry B. Benson : She's... uh... a human.

  Adam Flayman : Oh no, no, no, no. That didn't happen. You didn't do that. That is a bee law. You wouldn't break a bee law.

  Barry B. Benson : Her name's Vanessa.

  Adam Flayman : Oh, oh boy!

  Barry B. Benson : She's so nice. And she's a florist!

  Adam Flayman : Oh, no. No, no, no! You're dating a human florist!

  Barry B. Benson : Well, we're not dating.

  Adam Flayman : You're flying outside the hive. You're talking to human beings that attack our homes with power washers and M-80s. That's one-eighth of a stick of dynamite.

  Barry B. Benson : She saved my life. And she understands me.

• Vanessa : It's very hard to concentrate with that panicky tone in your voice.

  Barry B. Benson : It's not a tone, I'm PANICKING!

• Barry B. Benson : Look at these faces. They never knew what hit them and now they're on the road to nowhere.

• Jock #2 : We're going 0900 J-Gate, what do think fuzzy boy, are you Bee enough?

  Barry B. Benson : That depends, on what 0900 means?

• Adam Flayman : [On the bee testing a helmet]  What do you think he makes?

  Barry B. Benson : Not enough.
