Bug's Story; ❀
Flik is an individualist and would-be inventor in a colony of ants, led by Princess Atta and her mother, The Queen. living on a small island in the middle of a creek.
Flik is different and always unappreciated because of his inventions causing trouble. The colony is constantly oppressed by a gang of marauding grasshoppers who arrive every season demanding food from the ants.
However, when an offering that the ants were putting together to appease the grasshoppers is accidentally knocked into a stream by Flik's latest invention, a harvester device, the grasshoppers demand twice as much food at the end of the season.
Given a temporary reprieve by the grasshoppers, the ants pretend to agree to Flik's plan to recruit "warrior bugs" to fight off the grasshoppers.
While Flik actually believes in the plan, the other ants see it as a fool's errand to get rid of Flik.

Flik finds his way to the big city, where he mistakes a group of circus bugs, whose act collapses into chaos, for the warrior bugs he's seeking.
The bugs meanwhile mistake Flik for a talent agent, and agree to travel with him back to Ant Island.

The bugs earn the ants' respect after they save the Queen's youngest daughter, Dot, from a bird.
The bird attack inspires Flik into making a plan to build a fake bird that they can use to scare away Hopper, leader of the grasshoppers, who is deeply afraid of bug-eating birds.
Eventually, the troupe's former ringmaster, P.T. Flea, arrives searching for the circus bugs. Angered at Flik's deception, the ants exile him.

The ants desperately try to pull together enough food for a new offering to the grasshoppers, but are unable to do so.
After overhearing Hopper's plan to kill the queen after the offering, Dot leaves in search of Flik and convinces him to return and save the colony with his original plan.
The plan nearly works, but P.T. Flea mistakes the model for a real bird and sets it on fire, causing Hopper to realize that he has been tricked.
He orders Flik to be beaten, and before finishing him off Princess Atta steps in and defends Flik, prompting the rest of the colony to stand up to the grasshoppers and drive them out of the colony.
In the chaos, Hopper viciously pursues Flik, who leads him to an actual bird's nest, where he is ultimately eaten by the bird and its chicks, ending his menace.
Some time later, Flik has been welcomed back to the colony, and the circus bugs join him in a celebration.

Quotes ❀
"The circus! The circus! I love the circus!"

"Here, pretend, pretend that that's a seed.
It's a rock."

"Okay, come on everyone. Break a leg.
Whoa! You're vicious!"

"You piece of dirt! No, I'm wrong. You're lower than dirt. You're an ant!"

"But I am flying! And from way up here you all look like little ants."
