bee = to be a bee?

(Context; another example)

Although he was getting tired of the constant hustle-bustle
day after day, it was the subtle fear Buzz sensed throughout
the colony that troubled him the most.It was an unspoken,
yet driving force that seemed to rob the workers of life.This
was an abundant valley,but the bees lived as though starvation
were imminent.Something inside told Buzz there was no need
to worry; that they would bee provided for,just like the ants
and the caterpillars.Why couldn’t they just slow their pace,have
fewer mouths to feed,and let everyone relax and enjoy life a
little more?

No, it's just a sad joke, writing bee for be because the character is a bee. I assure you that there is no deep meaning here.

Thanks

oh, bee serious for once!

It's called a pun. People say sarcasm is the lowest form of wit, but puns aren't far behind.

To bee or not to bee, that is the stinger.
