Thanks to this season's presenting sponsor, Kohler. They design innovative

sinks and faucets for people who do their best work in the kitchen. There are thousands of bees in a hive and when they're active you can hear them and when you don't hear them.

And when you don't hear them, you know something you know something is wrong.

Private investigator, Rocky Pippkin, has come across a lot of crimes in his patch of California's Central Valley.

He's investigated gangs, tracked down stolen vehicles.

He even discovered a dead body, but he never thought that he would end

up investigating honeybee thefts. We've heard of 500, 600 hives being stolen at once.

Each year, beekeepers from all across the United States

drive to California to rent out their honeybee hives.

The hives are placed in almond groves

so that the bees can pollinate the trees.

More than half of all the honey bees in the United States

make this journey each year.

With 1.1 million trees there was plenty of business for the beekeepers.

In February of 2020, a beekeeper in Tulare County suspected that some of his

hives were going missing. So he hired Rocky Pippkin P.I.

Rocky and his agents went to the grove for a stakeout,

looking for anybody in the fields who shouldn't be there.

We're out there at 2 o'clock in the morning and here comes the truck and loads up the

hives and the guys are in their suits and they look like you know they're out there for

official business. It's not unusual for beekeepers to move their

hives at night when the bees are sleepy.
