K: OK, back to the question. "Why was the worker bee late today?"
K: So...
All: What do you think, everybody.

◆ ハチの巣
J: Yeah, this was not in the dialog. So, this is a new word for our listeners, "beehive."

◆ 戻ります
K: Julia?
Y: OK. I have two suggestions you can say "goes back to" or "returns to his beehive."
K: I see.

◆ 日没後に
K: Jeff?
J: Well, in the dialog, we had "come home before dark." The opposite of "before dark" is "after dark."

◆ 彼に……するように言います
K: Julia, any suggestions here?
J: Yeah, if it weren't the queen bee, you can ask someone to do something. But in this case, because she, the queen bee, is his boss, so, I would say, "She tells him to be on time."

K: Or you can say "order."

J: Oh, yes, sure. You can order him to be on time because she is the boss.

******

J: Well, it was a little tricky but I'm sure they did.
Y: Uh-huh.
J: Way to go!
Y: All right.
