Benny dons Pym's beekeeping outfit, having learnt from Derek that he is the beekeeper, and gives Derek the leaf mould spray to get rid of the [[dark rhubarb]] that has been spouting from his roots. Derek explains that dark rhubarb's [[spore]]s carry both the plant and the idea of the plant and Benny realises that he is inadvertently broadcasting it across his [[telepathic network]], infecting everybody in the club. She too becomes infected, arms the [[clockwork butler]]s with sprays and puts the solution into the club's [[sprinkler]]s to disinfect everyone at the cost of ruining the [[carpet]]s, the cost of which Pym informs her will be added to her bill. Pym, who speculates that his [[scarlet sleeper bee]]s might have brought the dark rhubarb spores into the club, also informs her that one person continues to say nothing but "rhubarb": Altazar. She destroys three of his miniatures to shock him out of it so he can ask the Draconian battleship to stand down and then fetches [[super glue]]. | Benny dons Pym's beekeeping outfit, having learnt from Derek that he is the beekeeper, and gives Derek the leaf mould spray to get rid of the [[dark rhubarb]] that has been spouting from his roots.
