[Video]
[The video comes on to show an adult Vespiquen and Combee, along with 54 baby Combee, slowly flying over the surface of the Lake of Rage. Now and then one falters in the air, but quickly recovers and returns to its position in the flight. Fearow and Archeops (who has been thoroughly instructed that she's not allowed to attack any of the baby Combee) are escorting the swarm on the sides, wings spread to glide and only occasionally flapping in slow, graceful arcs. Apollo's following behind on the shoulder of his Golurk, as evidenced by the sound of thrusters in the background. The sun has begun to set, casting a golden red light over the scene and reflecting off of the lake's surface. Several Magikarp poke their heads out of the water briefly to watch the swarm fly overhead, and several Gyrados surface to watch as well, the roar of one off-screen echoing across the lake. Just before the feed ends, a Milotic leaps out of the water, sending droplets flying to catch the light and glitter, forming a faint rainbow in the air for an instant.
Apollo remains silent. He has nothing to add to this scene.]

Can't make triple-headed bee honey any more radioactive than it is already. I'm headed toward...some fancy word for yellow. Chartreuse. No, wait, Goldenrod.
[The kid's name catches his attention.]
Like Apollo Creed?

[And when Carter arrives he'll have a nice, unmarked jar of raw, unfiltered, unpasteurized honey waiting for him. Sweeter than store-bought honey, with little clumps of pollen visible floating in it, and beginning to crystallize within a day or two of the jar opening. He'll likely question how sanitary it is, but it'll be harmless and delicious.]
Just Apollo.

[If it makes him grow bee wings or have a sudden mindless loyalty to a queen, it's your fault, Apollo.]
Yeah, I know. It's a good way to remember it though, by the character from the Rocky movie. You probably don't know Rocky movies though.
...tell me you know what movies are.

They're... things that move?
[That would be a "no".]

[He waves his arms in front of him] You know, pictures, they play on a screen, you go watch them and eat popcorn when it's balls hot outside and you have nothing better to do.

I don't know about things like that.

Not even any of the crappy knockoff ones here?
