In animation, Zamzoom, a young purple space alien and his quick-witted robot partner Orbie high-five before getting into a space ship. Orbie is a blue and yellow floating ball with a robotic arm. Zamzoom's little sister appears and hugs Zamzoom. She has short pink hair and big eyes.

The title of the show reads "Zamzoom's Animal Adventures."

Zamzoom says OKAY PLANET EARTH, LET'S SEE
WHERE WE'RE EXPLORING TODAY.

Zamzoom spins the globe and pins a spot.

Orbie says OOH! YOU LANDED ON ARIZONA.
PART OF THE SOUTH-WESTERN
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.

Zamzoom says ARIZONA LOOKS PRETTY BIG!

Orbie says AND TODAY WE'RE GOING TO BE
CHECKING OUT SOME CRITTERS
THAT ARE PRETTY SMALL.

Zamzoom says WHOA, WHATEVER THEY ARE, THEY
LOOK A BIT LIKE YOU.

Orbie laughs and says THEY'RE HONEYBEES.
THEY'RE FOUND ON EVERY CONTINENT
ON EARTH.
EXCEPT ANTARCTICA.

Zamzoom says LET'S CHECK 'EM OUT!

They land on a yard.

Zamzoom says WE NEED TO SHRINK DOWN TO GET
A BETTER LOOK.
THEY'RE REALLY FAST!
CAREFUL! GUYS! SIGNAL YOUR
TURNS!

Orbie says THAT'S A HIVE FOR HONEYBEES.
MADE JUST FOR THEM BY HUMANS.

Zamzoom says AH. BECAUSE THEY'RE HONEYBEES
AND THE PEOPLE
WANT SOME OF THEIR HONEY.

Orbie says DING DING DING DING! THAT'S
RIGHT!

Zamzoom walks among bees and says SO, UH, HOW DO THEY MAKE THIS
STICKY HONEY STUFF?

Orbie says PREPARE TO BEE ASTONISHED!

Zamzoom says I'M ALL EARS! AND NOSE TOO
I GUESS.

Orbie says HERE ARE THOUSANDS OF BEES IN
A HIVE'S COLONY, AND ONE QUEEN.
MOST OF THE COLONY ARE
WORKER BEES.
THEY'RE COLLECTING SUGAR-SWEET
NECTAR FROM THE FLOWERS
USING A LONG STRAW-LIKE TONGUE
CALLED A PROBOSCIS.
AND HERE'S A COOL FACT:
WHILE THEY'RE DOING THAT, POLLEN
FROM THE FLOWER
GETS STUCK TO THEM.

Zamzoom says AH, THAT'S THOSE YELLOWY
BLOBS ON THEIR LEGS!

Orbie says WHEN THE BEE VISITS THE NEXT
FLOWER, SOME OF THE POLLEN
BRUSHES OFF AND POLLINATES
IT.
THIS HELPS PLANTS MAKE SEEDS
AND REPRODUCE.
WITHOUT BEES THERE WOULDN'T BE
AS MANY PLANTS AVAILABLE FOR
HUMANS TO USE AS FOOD.

Zamzoom says SO THE PLANTS USE NECTAR TO
ATTRACT BEES FOR THEIR
POLLINATION POWER. SWEET!

Orbie says THEY FLY BACK TO THE HIVE
AND BASICALLY
THROW UP THE NECTAR INTO THE
HONEYCOMB CELLS.

Zamzoom says NO OFFENSE BEES, BUT...
EW...

Orbie says THEN, THEY FRANTICALLY BEAT
THEIR WINGS TO DRY THE NECTAR
INTO STICKY SWEET HONEY,
THEN SEAL IT UP WITH BEESWAX SO
THEY CAN EAT IT LATER.

Zamzoom says SOMETIMES THE BEE COMES
IN, AND KINDA WIGGLES ITS
BUTT AROUND, AND A BUNCH OF
OTHER BEES GET VERY
EXCITED AND GO FLYING OFF.

Close-up shots show bees working and eating.

Orbie says THAT'S THE WAGGLE DANCE!

Zamzoom says THE WAGGLE...DANCE?

Orbie says WHEN A BEE FINDS A REALLY
NICE PATCH OF FLOWERS
IT'S HOW THEY TELL THE OTHERS
WHERE IT IS.
FIRST, THEY HOP ON ANOTHER BEE
TO GET EVERYONE'S ATTENTION.
THEN, THEY DO THEIR WAGGLE
DANCE.
THE WAGGLES TELL THE OTHERS
THE DIRECTION TO GO IN
RELATION TO THE SUN.

Zamzoom says UN-BEE-LIEVABLE!
Dancing, she continues THAT...IS..AWESOME!
AND HARDER THAN IT LOOKS.
OKAY, WE SHOULD FALL BACK UP
TO OUR REGULAR SIZE
AND HEAD HOME.

Back in the space ship, Zamzoom says SO, HONEY IS REALLY JUST BEE
THROUGH-UP HUH?

Orbie says IF IT WOULD MAKE YOU FEEL
ANY BETTER YOU COULD THINK
OF IT AS BEE SPIT.

Eating honey, Zamzoom says NO. THAT'S NOT BETTER.
BUT, WHATEVER YOU CALL IT,
IT'S AWFULLY YUMMY STUFF.

The end credits roll.
