Well, he's back again to try and con the bees out of their honey!

I love the lesson that this book teaches; put in the work, be helpful to others, and you will reap the benefits of your diligence.

If only Bumble paid attention to what his wife and cubs, he would know this!

And he gets his just desserts in the end.
