Plot: Every year, a bunch of grasshoppers come to the anthill and eat what the ants have gathered for them. The "offering", as the ants call the ritual, is a part of their fate. One day in spring, when the offering's preparation has just been finished, Flik, unliked inventor ant, accidentally drops the whole offered seeds into the river. The grasshoppers come and give the ants a second chance to collect food until fall. Flik sets off to find bugs that are willing to fight the grasshoppers (nobody expects him to succeed anyway) and, due to a double misinterpretation, returns with a circus crew, giving everybody new hope. When the misunderstanding finally gets cleared out, there is only little time left for a new plan, which has to work, or else...

Manny: I now summon the voice of Confucius...::Fly: Get off the stage, you old hag!::Manny: Huh? I demand to know who said that?::[Manny is pelted with fruit]::Manny: How dare you? Ingrates!::[leaves]::Gypsy: [inside box] Manny? Manny?

Princess Atta: You see Hopper, Nature has a certain order. The ants pick the food, the ants keep the food, and the grasshoppers leave!

Hopper: It's a bug-eat-bug world out there, princess. One of those Circle of Life kind of things. Now let me tell you how things are supposed to work: The sun grows the food, the ants pick the food, the grasshoppers eat the food...::Molt: And the birds eat the grasshoppers. Hey, like the one that nearly ate you, you remember? You remem- Oh, you shoulda seen it, okay?::Hopper: Molt!::Molt: This blue jay has him half way down his throat, okay? And Hopper - Hopper's kicking and screaming, okay? And I'm scared, okay, I'm not going anywhere near, okay- Aw, come on! It's a great story.::[Hopper grabs Molt by the antennae]::Molt: Ow! Ow! Ow!

[Hopper is about to feed Dot to Thumper]::Flik: Leave her alone!::Hopper: [pause, Hopper walks towards Flik, still holding Dot] You want her? [Holds out Dot] Go ahead, take her.::[Flik just stands where he is, terrified]::Hopper: No? Then get back in line!::[Flik slowly walks backwards back to where he was before]

Flik: Here, pretend - pretend that that's a seed.::Dot: It's a rock.::Flik: Oh, I know it's a rock, I know. But let's just pretend for a minute that it's a seed, alright? We'll just use our imaginations. Now, now do you see our tree? Everything that made that giant tree is already contained inside this tiny little seed. All it needs is some time, a little bit of sunshine and rain, and voilá!::Dot: This rock will be a tree?::Flik: Seed to tree. You've gotta work with me, here. Alright? Okay. Now, y-you might not feel like you can do much now, but that's just because, well, you're not a tree yet. You just have to give yourself some time. You're still a seed.::Dot: But it's a rock.::Flik: [shouting] I know it's a rock! Don't you think I know a rock when I see a rock? I've spent a lot of time around rocks!::Dot: You're weird, but I like you.

Flik: Oh, great ones! I have been scouting for bugs with your exact talents!::Rosie: A talent scout!::Flik: My colony is in trouble. Grasshoppers are coming. We've been forced to prepare all this food.::Manny: Dinner theater!::Heimlich: Food?::Flik: Please, will you help us?::Fly: Where are they?::Slim: We'll take the job!

Flik: Try not to look like a country bug. Blend. Blend in.

Flik: [has just realized the "warrior bugs" are from the circus] Your Highness! The warriors have called a secret meeting to make plans for circus, uh, *circumventing* the oncoming horde, so they can trapeze - *trap* them with ease!::Princess Atta: Well, shouldn't I come, too?::Flik: No! Ha ha ha! Sorry. No, no, see it's classified in the DMZ, gotta go ASAP, you know, strictly BYOB. Bye!

Molt: [in a sing-song voice] The circus! The circus! I love the circus!

Flik: They can't know the truth! The truth, you see, is bad! I will be branded with this mistake for the rest of my life! My children's children will walk down the street and people will point and say, "Look, there goes the spawn of Flik the Loser"!

Quotes:

Alfonse Van Worden: I must have been put to sleep with a potion and taken to the gallows.::Donna Rebecca Uzeda: Then you got under the Zota brothers' gallows? [he nods] And found them both hanged?::Alfonse Van Worden: Do they, by chance, have the habit of coming down?::Donna Rebecca Uzeda: Very often, usually at night.

Donna Rebecca Uzeda: All these adventures begin simply. The listener thinks it'll soon be over, but one story creates another, and then another.::Don Pedro Velasquez: Something like quotients which can be divided infinitely.

Don Pedro Velasquez: We are like blind men lost in the streets of a big city. The streets lead to a goal, but we often return to the same places to get to where we want to be. I can see a few little streets here which, as it is now, are going nowhere. New combinations have to be arranged, then the whole will be clear, because one man cannot invent something that another cannot solve.::Alfonse Van Worden: I no longer follow.
