INT. ART STUDIO - DAY


MACY and WEST stand in front of a giant, bright-colored bee statue with a smiley face.


MACY

Wow.


WEST

Yeah, took me about a year or so to restore it.


MACY

Impressive.


WEST

And that stinger in the back? I had to contact a guy all the way back in Italy to get it custom made.


MACY

Wow.


WEST

Here’s the reference photo they gave me.


WEST pulls out a printed image of Barry B. Benson from the Bee Movie.


WEST

It’s a little blurry. That’s all they gave me to work with.


MACY stares at the image, then back at the sculpture.


MACY

You said 17th?


WEST

Early 16th century. Original artist was Rembrandt if you can believe it.


MACY

(baffled)

Shocking.


WEST

Mmmhm. I’m just honored the museum trusted me with this piece.

MACY and WEST look on at the giant bee. It is anything but a Rembrandt piece.


MACY

Looks very...modern.


WEST

That’s what we was going for.


MACY

Mmm.


WEST

Yeah. Cool, right?


MACY

Very! I’m just...shocked is all.


WEST

I didn’t think I’d ever get it done either.


Beat.


MACY

Rembrandt? Really?


WEST

Ohhhhhh yeah.
