Recap / Corner Gas Animated S 1 E 03 None Of Your Beefwax

A Plot: Brent and the gang are annoyed when Lacey tries to make them eat local, but they soon have no choice but to eat farm-to-table when the town’s deliveries are mysteriously tardy. Meanwhile, one of Lacey's dishes brings out Oscar's vindictive side toward a beloved town cow.
B Plot: Davis becomes a beekeeper to train “guard bees” as a security measure, and Wanda turns his beeswax into candles to sell at a profit at Corner Gas.

Tropes referenced:

• City Mouse: Toronto gal Lacey has some pretty horrifying experiences at three different local farms. This ends up turning her against local food like everyone else.
• Crowd Chant: Hank starts a chant for "pack-aged-food", but it doesn't last long and he's left chanting alone at the end.
• Felony Misdemeanor: The town lashes out at Lacey for serving local food, even food they had already agreed was delicious, because they prefer to eat packaged food from the city. They treat being tricked into eating local as an affront to justice.
  Lacey: I guess I have to go to the city and get other food that probably came from around here, then went there, was processed, and packaged to come back here.
• Joke and Receive:
  Brent: What's with the red welts? You get stung by a bunch of bees?
  Davis: Yeah.
  Brent: Oh.
  Davis: I'm a beekeeper now.
• Mondegreen Gag:
  Karen: I'm a vegetarian, so, I'm choosing to have a delicious legume medley.
  Brent: Malicious legroom melody?
  Karen: I said "delicious legume medley".
  Brent: That makes less sense.
• Pun-Based Title
• Running Gag: Oscar smacking food out of Brent's hand, and Brent getting increasingly angrier about it.
• Shout-Out: In somewhat of a Corner Gas tradition, Brent references Archie Comics when he sees Lacey holding two full trays of hamburgers and wonders if Jughead phoned in an order.
• Sustained Misunderstanding: Hank is sad and everyone is angry when it becomes apparent that the local beef Lacey is serving is made from a beloved cow named Carlene. This is bad news for everyone except Oscar, who begins spite-eating the burgers and chili because he thinks Carlene slighted him once. Also, Carlene's supposed absence means delivery drivers aren't finding the right turn into town. In the end, Carlene makes a re-appearance and it's discovered that the cow killed was named Marlene, who the town didn't care as much about and Oscar loved.
• Technologically Blind Elders: Though not the one to usually fall into this trope, Davis apparently still uses Ask Jeeves to do his Internet searches.
• Vegetarian for a Day: More like a week and a half, for Karen.
