Synopsis for the Theatrical Cartoon Bee Bopped

From time immemorial, the honeybee has played an important part in world history. The cavemen, the Egyptians, the ancient Greeks, the Romans and so on- down to the present- each civilization, in its time, has felt the "sting" of these "honeymakers." Bears love honey, and Windy, our hero, is no exception. Windy's little son has been stung when he has tried to to get some honey from a beehive. Windy, seeing him, laughs and says, "You goofed, son, watch your Pop." Windy sneaks up to the hive and quietly sticks his hand in its door, but the guardian of the hive gives Windy a "stinging reception." Baffled, but not beaten, Windy tries various and sundry methods to obtain some honey, but he ends up with the same result- he gets stung again and again. He beats on a tub to charm the bees. They are not charmed, and they sting Papa. Finally, in desperation, he puts a small package of TNT in the hive, turns, and starts pumping the plunger to set off the blast. Unknown to Windy, the bees remove the TNT from the hive and set it down behind Windy. After the explosion, Windy's seen wrapped and swathed in bandages, lying in a hospital bed. When the attendant announces a breakfast of hotcakes and honey, the shock's too much for Windy. He jumps from his bed and crashes through the wall to escape being "Bee Bopped" again.
