Set against the backdrop of San Francisco, the series showcases the power of determination, friendship, and creativity.

In Season 1, Episode 17 of "The Mighty B!," we are treated to a double feature of scout-centric stories that continue to highlight Bessie's determination and unique perspective on the world.

The first half, titled "Eye of the Honeybee," dips into Bessie's boundless enthusiasm for the Honeybee scouts and the badges they represent. Always on the lookout for new opportunities to demonstrate her skills and scout spirit, Bessie drives herself to take on another challenge to get closer to her ultimate goal. In this episode, she believes she has found the perfect way to earn one of the more elusive and prestigious Honeybee badges. It's not just about doing good deeds or showing leadership qualities; this particular task requires an exceptional level of focus and fortitude, pushing Bessie to test the limits of her perception and concentration. Through a series of comic events, Bessie will learn that seeing with "the eye of the honeybee" is about more than just literal vision; it's about a different way of viewing the world that might involve some unexpected insight and a touch of Bessie's signature out-of-the-box thinking.

Continuing on the scout theme, the second story of the episode, "Thanksgiving Beenactment," takes us on a delightful journey through American history, specifically the Thanksgiving tradition. It's that time of year when everyone gathers to celebrate and give thanks, but no holiday is complete without Bessie injecting her special brand of enthusiasm into the proceedings. Bessie endeavors to create the most authentic Thanksgiving reenactment her community has ever seen. She is convinced that bringing history to life through a reenactment—a "Beenactment," as Bessie fondly dubs it—will be educational, fun, and an excellent opportunity for her to earn yet another badge.

As always, Bessie's efforts surpass mere planning as she immerses herself in the event, deeply committed to accurate portrayal and festive spirit. Her ambitious project takes shape, pulling in friends, family, and possibly a few reluctant neighbors as they are roped into Bessie's idea of a historically accurate and joyful celebration. With her distinctive take on the roles of the Pilgrims and Native Americans, Bessie is determined to not only educate her peers about the holiday but also to make this Thanksgiving memorable for everyone involved.

As plans for the Thanksgiving Beenactment unfold, Bessie's imagination and dedication to details are put to the test. She must navigate the challenges of orchestrating a large-scale event while simultaneously striving to maintain historical accuracy and scout integrity. With her usual fervor, her well-intentioned nature may lead to mishaps, misunderstandings, and mayhem as various elements of the reenactment spin in unexpected directions. But with her unstoppable spirit, Bessie remains undeterred, drawing on her scout skills and indomitable will to guide her community through a Thanksgiving experience they won't soon forget.
