A quest for their favorite hot sauce causes the Bears to get involved with a sting operation.
Tropes:
- Badass Cape: Grizz wears one for the sting operation. He's trying to look like the toughest guy he knows - Dracula.
- Blatant Burglar: Panda's disguise in the sting operation consists of a Domino Mask and a striped shirt.
- Blazing Inferno Hellfire Sauce: The bears really love their hot sauce, especially Grizz, who at one point guzzles down a whole bottle.
- Double-Meaning Title: "Hot Sauce" refers to the fact that the Pigeon Cartel is selling stolen goods that just happen to be sriracha sauce (making it "hot" in more ways than one).
- Greaser Delinquents: Ice Bear dresses as one for the sting operation, wearing sunglasses and a leather jacket.
- If You're So Evil, Eat This Kitten!: To prove their worth, the Pigeon Cartel boss asks one of the bears to drink an entire bottle of hot sauce. Grizz guzzles it down with no apparent ill effects.
- Last Request: Before executing the Bears in a car crusher, the Boss Pigeon decides to honor Grizzly's last request for some hot sauce. A rather foolish decision, since Grizz sprays the sauce over the villain and manages to grab Panda's phone, while Ice Bear breaks himself and Panda out.
- Serious Business: The Pigeon Cartel selling black market bottles of sriracha sauce is treated as a very serious matter by the police.
- Sunglasses at Night: Ice Bear wears sunglasses as part of his disguise for the sting, and complains that he can't see anything.
