Go To

Beavis and Butt-Head attempt to get rich quick by using wasps to make honey.


  • The Bus Came Back:
    • The first appearance of Tom Anderson in the revival.
    • Van Dreissen's "lady friend" Ellen from the original series returns, this time as an older woman.
  • Call-Back: Beavis ranting at the "bees" about their laziness like a disrespected parent might be a callback to the episode, "Sprout" where to make the corn grow, he and Butt-Head ranted at it the same way.
  • Get-Rich-Quick Scheme: The pair try to grow honey from bees after realizing that Ellen and Van Dreissen sold a single jar for $50.
  • Insane Troll Logic: Beavis and Butt-Head think a wasp's nest is a bee's nest and the shampoo from their shower is honey. When Van Dreissen tries to correct them, they assume the bees were so stupid that they instead made shampoo.
    Van Driessen: Guys, these are not bees. They're wasps. Wasps don't make honey.
    Butt-Head: We know, dumbass! They made shampoo.
  • Mythology Gag: Tom Anderson, who was the inspiration for Hank Hill, warns the boys about the wasp's nest and how he wants to call an exterminator, a possible reference to Hank's exterminator friend, Dale Gribble.
  • Scary Stinging Swarm: The duo's captive wasps go into scary stinging swarm mode several times, unsurprisingly. By the episode's end, they've attacked Mr. Van Driessen, Ellen, Butt-head, and (particularly) Beavis.
