Barry the bee breaks the sacred law of his species by speaking to a human to thank her for saving his life. Vanessa, a florist, struggles to process the reality of the situation as the two engage in a polite but surreal conversation over the prospect of coffee and cake.
BARRY: Umm ...hi.
VANESSA: You’re talking.
BARRY: Yes, I know, I know.
VANESSA: You’re talking.
BARRY: I know, I’m sorry. I’m so sorry.
VANESSA: It’s okay. It’s fine. It’s just, I know I’m dreaming, but I don’t recall going to bed.
BARRY: Well, you know I’m sure this is very disconcerting.
