THRUSH is supplying him with cash for his work. They then send him to a THRUSH operated casino where Abbott loses it all back to THRUSH.
The bees are fed with a rare brand of honey that only one store in New York sells. UINCLE enlists the aid of the salesgirl, Ahna Capri in trying to track down McGiver's hidden THRUSH lair.

McCallum agrees to help McGiver in order to save Miss Capri. He leads McGiver on a long way around tour of the UNCLE air duct systems.
In the meantime, Robert Vaughn has rescued Capri and convinced Abbott he would be happier working for the good guys. They all head for UNCLE headquarters. Our man McCallum has managed to fool the THRUSH types into releasing the bees in the wrong place. They of course turn on McGiver and sting the swine to death.
