Back in the field, Paul and his
two pals are preparing to implement their carefully designed stratagem
for dealing with that milling swarm they’ve found. This brilliant scheme
involves tossing some Molotov cocktails at the tree where the bees hang
out and then running like hell. They’ve stationed garbage cans (how appropriate!)
about a block away. In the off chance that their machinations result in
less than the total destruction of the swarm, these will be used to provide
protection. Personally, I would have kept them closer to hand, but then
we wouldn’t get that dynamic "chased by bees" scene. Amazingly, some of
the millions bees manage to survive their fiery projectiles, and the boys
run to the cans, turning them upside down and sitting inside them. Good
thing they didn’t hide in bit plastic cups, eh! We now know how little
protection that would have afforded. Frustrated at their inability to
get at the little arsonists, the pissed off swarm takes off en masse,
heading into Marysville for an attack. Thanks, kids!
