Ken: OHHH!!! THAT BEE IS LIVING MY LIFE!

Andy: Let it go, Kenny. Let it all go.

Ken: WHEN WILL THIS NIGHTMARE END?!

Cow: Milk, cream, cheese, it's all me. And I don't see a nickel! Sometimes I just feel like a piece of meat!

Barry: I had no idea.

Vanessa: Barry, I'm sorry. Have you got a moment?

Barry: (to the cow) Would you excuse me? My mosquito associate here will be able to help you.

Mooseblood: Sorry I'm late.

Cow: He's a lawyer, too?

Mooseblood: [shows the cow his briefcase] Ma'am, I was already a bloodsucking parasite. All I needed was a briefcase.

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.

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: [places a pollen jock jacket on Barry and the 3 pollen jocks cheer while Vanessa gives him a thumbs up] Hold on Barry, you earned this.

Barry: [the pollen jocks toss Barry a nectar pack] I'm a pollen jock, and its a perfect fit. All I gotta do are the sleeves!

Adam: Nice.

Janet: [proudly; Martin nods proudly in agreement] That's our Barry!

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

Barry: It's not a tone. I'm panicking!

Mr. Montgomery: [Vanessa gasps] 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: 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!

Barry: Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, there's no trickery here. I'm just an ordinary bee. And as a 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 whatever they want from us, cause we're the little guys! And what I'm hoping is that after this is all over, you'll see how by taking our honey, you're not only taking away everything we have, but everything we are!

Barry: [[w:ER (TV series)|ER] Mr. Liotta, first may I offer my belated congratulations on your Emmy win for your guest spot on ] in 2005.

Ray Liotta: [laughs] Thank you, thank you!

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

Ray Liotta: [angrily] Watch it, Benson! I could blow right now!

Barry: This isn't a Goodfella! This is a bad fella!

Ray Liotta: [furiously tries to squash Barry with his Emmy] WHY DOESN'T SOMEBODY JUST STEP ON THIS LITTLE CREEP AND WE CAN ALL GO HOME?!? YOU'RE ALL THINKING IT!!!

Barry: So, Mr. Sting, thank you for being here. Your name intrigues me, I have to say. Where have I heard it before?

Sting: [[w:The Police|The Police] I was with a band called ].

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

Sting: Uh, no, I haven't.

Barry: No, you haven't. And so here we have another of bee culture being casually stolen by a human for nothing more than a prance-about stage name.

Sting: Oh, please.

Barry: [flips a few pages on his notebook] Have you ever been stung, Mr. Sting? Because, I'm feeling a little stung, Sting. Or should I say... Mr. Gordon M. Sumner!

Montgomery: Not his real name?! You idiots!

Barry: So, Mr. Klaus Van Der Haden of Honey Farms. Pretty big company you have there.

Klaus: I suppose so.

Barry: And I see you also own Honeyburton and Honron!

Klaus: Yes, they provide beekeepers for our farms.

Barry: Beekeeper." I find that a very disturbing term, I have to say. I don't imagine you employ any bee-free-ers, do you?

Klaus: [quietly] Uh, no.

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

Klaus: [clearly] No.

Barry: [Vanessa places a bear-shaped honey jar on the counter] No. Because you don't free bees. You keep bees. And not only that, it seems you thought a bear would be an appropriate image for a jar of honey.

Klaus: [[w:Yogi Bear|Yogi Bear; [w:Fozzie Bear|Fozzie Bear; [w:Build-A-Bear Workshop|Build-A-Bear] W-w-well, they're very lovable creatures. Uh, ], ], oh, ].

Barry: [the doors open as Vincent from [[w:Over the Hedge|Over the Hedge; to the specialist; Vincent calms down as he is taken away] Yeah, you mean like this? ] is on a rampage as an animal control specialist keeps him restrained] Bears kill bees! How'd you like his big, hairy head crashing through your living room?! Bitin into you couch! Spittin out your throw pillows! Rawr, rawr! Okay, that's enough. Take him away.

Vanessa: Oh, you poor thing. You two have been at this for hours!

Barry: [sarcastically; Adam asleep in an empty Cinnabon box] Yes, and Adam here has a been a huge help.

Vanessa: Listen, you'd better go because we're really busy working.

Ken: But it's our yogurt night!

Vanessa: [ushers Ken out of the shop] Oh, bye-bye.

Ken: [furiously] WHY IS YOGURT NIGHT SO DIFFICULT?!!

Vanessa: My only interest is flowers.

Barry: Our new queen was just elected with that same campaign slogan.

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.

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"!

Buzzwell: [beat, changes time] 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.

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 hitchhiked around the hive.

Adam: You did come back different.

Barry B. Benson: [brainstorming pickup lines for Vanessa Bloome; [w:Jazz|jazz] Ya like ]?

Barry B. Benson: [About [[Ray Liotta; [Goodfellas|goodfella] This isn’t a ]! This is a BAD fella!

Barry B. Benson: [first actual line spoken in-universe] black, Yellow, black, Yellow, ooh, black and yellow, yeah, let’s shake it up a little!

Narrator: [first lines; [aviation; [Impossibility|impossible] According to all known laws of ], 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 anyway. Because bees don't care what humans think is ].
