"Honey Heist" is the first segment of the seventy-eighth episode of Big City Greens.
Synopsis
The kids plan a heist to steal honey from Bill's beehive.
Plot
Cricket, Tilly and Remy all gush over the honey hive that is tended to by Bill and Nancy. Cricket tells Remy that they are not allowed to have any due to Bill's strict rules and thus has decided to perform a honey heist to collect all the honey. In order to do so, they would need to get two keys to simultaneously unlock the hive and slowly collect the honey. Tilly and Remy are all in on the plan until Cricket mentions wanting to recruit Nancy into helping them. The two are unconvinced that she will help as she has recently shown to be much more responsible on the farm. Cricket throws their caution away and still insists that she will help them.
The first step is to distract Bill away from the hive. To do so, Cricket employs Remy to use an RC controlled mole and have Bill chase it away, which he succeeds in doing so. Next, Tilly herds a flock of sheep to run by Gramma Alice several times so that she will count them and fall asleep, which also is a success. Cricket manages to acquire Bill's key as he was chasing the mole and then asks Nancy to join in on the heist. She reluctantly agrees after Remy is forced to drive the mole over a cliff and Bill makes his way back to the farm. Cricket goes to get a wheelbarrow, but Tilly confronts him over recruiting Nancy, as she still does not trust her.
Cricket and Nancy head to the hive and unlock it, but just as they are collecting the honey, Nancy outs Cricket to a recently arriving Bill. Cricket yells, causing the bees to wake up and chase and sting him. Alice captures Remy and Tilly while Bill rescues Cricket from the bees before grounding him. As Cricket, Tilly and Remy sulk in their room, Nancy enters and reveals that she acquired a jar of honey. She admitted that her ratting out her kids was a spur of the moment decision to throw Bill off her trail. She admits that while she has become a more responsible woman, she still loves having fun with her kids. Remy tells a bee related pun that gets a huge laugh.
