Killer Bees!

Synopsis: Sheriff Lyndon Harris of a rural Washington town tries hard to smoothen life for his people, while shark mayor Ditwaller is out to acquire property after bank foreclosures. Lyndon also has an ex who presses for divorce and two kids, who need his help, especially son Dylan, who is easily lead astray by champion imp Jared Wylie. After noticing a Mexican truck with bee hives and several unusually aggressive bee attacks, Lyndon take doc's advice to consult entomologist Riley Muir, who concludes it's the northernmost-ever case of Latin American killer bees. Despite more bee attacks, the mayor refuses safety precautions, giving sole priority to closing a deal with a distributing company at the honey festival.

All right, Lyndon, let's see

if you can answer this one

Short horned cattle

Three major color patterns.

What are they?

Red, brown, and white

Average yield of a crop of wheat?

Approximately around 80 bushels

or 80 million individual grains

When's your mother's birthday?

- Dad...

- Answer the question

April 26th

And what are the four Hs?

My head to clearer thinking,

my heart to greater loyalty...

My hands to larger service...

And my health to better living

Now name me the small seeded grains

I'll get it

I think it went in the junk pile

Okay!

Dad! I'm stuck Dad!

Dad! Dad!

Lyndon? Lyndon!

Pull your arm out now

Run to the truck!

Remember, folks,

it's pollination season

Watch out for the mobile apiaries

rolling into your area

Speaking of bees, the annual

Sumas Honey Fest is...

- Down 6 points

- Anybody awake at the jail this morning?

10-4, Sheriff. We're open for business

Hey, Slim, that coffee

machine working today?

That's a negative on the java, sir

You need to sign the purchase order so

I can take it over to Hank's and get it fixed

Yeah, yeah, yeah

- Hey, Slim...

- Uhuh

Why don't you lighten up a little bit?

10-4, Sheriff

In state legislature, the family farm

relief bill stalled again

Legislators hoped to table

a new bill sometime next year

In the meantime, farmers

in distress are asked to be patient

In sports...

Stop and say hello to old Norbert

Morning, Norbert

Sumas Honey Festival

- Hi, dad

- Hey, don't stop on account of me

That sounds pretty good, son

Are you guys ready for

the big gig down at the fairgrounds?

- What do you care anyway, huh?

- He's just doing it to impress Nadine

Dylan. Dylan, come on

- So how's my little blue ribbon winner, huh?

- Not yet, Dad. You'll jinx it

I'm not going to jinx anything.

Where's your mom?

Upstairs

Audrey, it's me

I need a clean duty shirt

Just a minute

How come I see more of you now

than I did when we were together?

Did you get a job?

Assistant Manager at the Dairy Castle

- Sissy called

- Oh Lord! Not again

That's a pretty good honey.

Wait a second

Your daughter made that

You'd know that if you spent

more time with them

I'm cultivating a hive for Rural Youth

Bees?

She's been at it for two

months, Lyndon

I'm showing my supers at the fair

"Supers" are what beekeepers

call their hives

So, where are you keeping this super thing?

Behind the garage

All right, well, as long as it stays there

Audrey, I swear you make

the best cup of coffee

That Dairy Castle's lucky to have you

I'm worried about him

Dylan? I'll see you later!

He'!

How much longer am I going

to have to keep ironing your shirts?

- I don't expect you to iron my...

- It's been six months, Lyndon

What are we waiting for?

We've got enough money saved

to pay for the divorce now

I don't know. I thought the separation

was working fine

I don't know where I am

The kids see us together

- We're not together

- Audrey, I don't...

We need to get on with our lives

Have you men somebody?

How could I with us tripping over each other?

You know, Audrey, when we lost the farm,

your confidence in me went with it

That is you talking, not me

All I want is peace of mind

All right? We're always at each other's

throats, and for what? Money?

Money's been a third wheel in our marriage

for as long as I can remember

I think we should try to stay out

of each other's way

- Is that what you want?

- Mmh

Okay, fine. We're going to try that

Zeke called here this morning

looking for you

- You're taking his house today, aren't you?

- Don't start with me

I cannot bear the thought of you working for

that Dittwaller, Lyndon. How could you?

How could you even speak

to him after what he did to us?

You know, all the farmers in

Sumas think you are a traitor

You know what? Dittwaller didn't

take our farm. The bank did

Lyndon, Dittwaller is the bank

Do you think I like kicking

people off of farms

that have been in their family

for a hundred years? Huh?

It sure beats living off food stamps, don't it?

I've got to go

You know Audrey, when we lost the farm,

your confidence in me went with it

That is you talking, not me

I miss this place

What the?

Dittwaller, I want you off of my property

It's the bank's property now, Mr. Gillman

Oh yeah? We'll see about that

Sheriff! He's got a gun!

Yeah, and it's loaded too. Huh? Huh?

Now, Zeke, let's not go and make

this any worse than it already is

Oh, you go to heck, Harris,

you damn traitor

I thought you was one of us.

Now, don't worry about it

Don't worry about it

The Sheriff here ain't going to be taking

us off to jail for this, are you Sheriff?

Not as long as you stop

shooting at us, I won't

Give us a little time to collect

a few personals

Go on, Zeke. Take all the time you need

Now, I want to press charges,

you hear that?

Whatever you say, Mayor,

but it ain't going to hold up in court

He's going for the truck!

Well, don't you stand there!

Go after him!

- Now mayor, let's be reasonable

- Do something

I want him arrested!

- On what charges?

- Attempted murder

Oh now, if Zeke wanted us shot, we would

have never gotten near the place

Well, then, grand theft auto.

That truck belongs to me now

This place has been in his family since

before the rail road went through here

Now to you, it's just another asset,

but to them, it's their family history
