Well, in case you missed it the other day, lemme just tell you what’s going on, though I don’t know what that is.

As I mentioned, my friend, Fleur de Bee, and my Girlfriend, ButterCup, are both going to bee Contestants on the New Season of “Escape from Bee Island”. Don’t ask me why, beecause I completely don’t know why they’d do that, mostly.

Okay fine, I can understand that ButterCup wants to accept the always-horrific “Bee Island Challenge”: she told me she definitely needs the Fresh Air & Exercise - and the Honey, since her Job at the Hive’s Redundant Typing Pool didn’t pay much. Plus, she quit doing that. (She hated it.)

She asked me if I wanted to also join her and bee a Contestant. “No, I absolutely do not. Thanks anyway,” I told her.

Sure, I’ll watch it, but why would anybody wanna put themselves through something like that? Seriously now.

Okay, I suppose if somebody wants to put themselves through all that for the Honey, then fine. I get that. But to go through all that just for Honey seems highly extreme to me, especially for bees who don’t like Camping and Life-Threatening Adventure. ButterCup loves Camping and stuff, but Fleur de Bee does not. She’s far too Parisian for such things. She highly disapproves of beecoming soiled, or in never always to remember not to forget to look one’s Best.

I think we all know what she’s talking about here.

So I still don’t get why Fleur de Bee has decided to take a Sabbatical from her Job as an Agent for French Counter-Espionage to bee on the Show. Especially this one. (I mean, she could’ve tried out to Compete for Honey and Prizes on The Wheel of Jeopardy, but no… she picks this one?

It makes no sense.

Fleur loves her Job, and she gets paid a LOT of Honey for doing it (it’s Highly Dangerous work, she tells me). So why is she taking a Sabbatical from what she does so well to do something I know she actually despises?

I just don’t know, and she won’t tell me.
This is beeyond Mysterious.

So I sent her a Buzz•O•Gram™, trying to get her to talk to me.

And what did she have to say about all this in her Reply? Read it for yourself, and you tell me if that’s at all helpful.

No, it isn’t. Maybee you speak French, but I don’t, and if I did, I just have a feeling she was blowing me off, which is also highly unlike Fleur. She’s just not like that, usually.

Bee that as it may, it’s pretty clear that I’m going to have to figure out what’s going by just watching the Show along with everybody else, and to try to get as much Inside Information as I can … which, now that I think about it, maybee I can get from ButterCup…she’ll bee there, in the middle of that Intense Difficult Ordeal, and I’m sure she’ll keep me Reliably Informed about what’s really going on. Maybee she can sneak in a CellPhone, or something.

I’ll ask her if she’ll do that.

In the meantime, the Premier Episode of the New Season of “Escape from Bee Island” is airing next week, so I’ll bee buzzing over to my old Boot Box to watch it with Kevin (my Illegitimate Nephew), Great Grandma Gee Gee, and Bert, if he’s plugged in.

If everything goes well, I’ll bee able to get to the bottom of this whole deal with Fleur by sitting in my always-soothing Relaxer-Recliner while indulging in a few Bubblingly- Refreshing Nectar Fizzes, some lightly popped, Honey-Glazed Pollen Puffs, and (of course) an ample supply of the always-delicious Great Grandma Gee Gee’s Royal HoneyChew Krisp Cookies™. They’re so good.

So sometime after tonight’s Premier Episode, (which will mostly bee Production Credits and Commercials), and the actual Show starting, (which I’ve heard will bee sometime before next Friday - there are a LOT Opening Credits and Commercials), I’ll bee sharing whatever it is I find out about what I don’t know about what’s going on with you. No, not with you. I mean with Fleur - what’s going on with Fleur. I’ll share what I find out about Fleur with you.

Geeeeeeze.

Until Next Friday, then…
let’s all bee highly careful out there.
