[comical music]

whip-woo

Well, of all the nerve!

Hey, Wilma!
Did you see me go by here?

- Yes, I did.
- Which way did I go?

- That way.
- Thanks.

Alright, you phony Flintstone.
I know who you are.

Yabba dabba doo.

Hold it and don't give me
that yabba dabba doo stuff.

bam

Yabba dabba doo.

[theme music]

[siren blaring]

Yabba dabba doo!

Flintstones
meet the Flintstones

They're the modern
stone age family

From the town of Bedrock

They're a page
right out of history

Let's ride with
the family down the street

Through the courtesy
of Fred's two feet

When you're
with the Flintstones

Have a yabba dabba doo time

A dabba doo time

You'll have a gay old time

[pleasant music]

Fred, what are you doing?

(Fred)
'Pebbles and I
are busy watching TV.'

Well, it's time
for Pebbles to retire.

Okay, Wilma, I'll put her to bed
as soon as the news is over.

You heard mommy, honey.
It's off to bed for you.

[gibberish]

Oh, yeah? Well,
the same to you, Pebbly poo.

[laughing]

[Pebbles laughing]

And on the local news front,
there've been more reports

of unidentified flying objects,
sometimes called flying saucers

'seen over the city of Bedrock.'

[laughing]

The only flying saucers I see
are the one Wilma throws

when I get home
late from bowling. Ha ha!

'Air Force sources claim
so-called flying saucers'

are unusual cloud formations
or other natural phenomena.

Yeah, like
a good imagination.

Ha ha ha.

And now, for the Dow Stones
rock market averages.

That's it, Pebbles.

It's time to visit
the Sandman in "Beddy Bye" land.

As a matter of fact, I think
I'll hit the sack myself.

Say goodnight
to mama, Pebbles.

[gibberish]

Goodnight, sweetie.

Muah!

[giggling]

- Oh, Fred!
- Yes, my little Wilma poo?

Will you please empty
the trash can on your way back?

I can't get another thing
in the pale.

She said a mouthful
that time. My mouthful.

(Fred)
'Okay, Wilma.'

Here we are, Pebbles honey.

[Dino barking]

screech

[whimpering]

Alright, Dino.
Don't get hysterical.

(Fred)
'You can kiss Pebbles
goodnight too.'

Muah!

[giggling]

[sighs]

[whimpering]

'Another one?'

Muah!

[giggling]

[Fred laughing]

You sure love Pebbles,
don't you, Dino?

[barking]

You see that, Pebbles?

You got a real pal in Dino,
a regular guardian angel.

Ah, how about that?
She's fast sleep already.

(Fred)
Goodnight, sweetheart.

You know, without kids,
bein' a father means nothing.

Yabba dabba doo,
it means I love you.

Goodnight, Wilma.

Yabba dabba doo,
you love me too.

Hey, Perry Bromo, haven't you
forgotten something?

Don't tell me tonight's
my bowling night.

I wanna hit the sack early.

No, it is not
your bowling night.

But tomorrow is trash day.

No kidding! Boy, they have
a holiday for everything.

Never mind the jokes, funny man.

- Just take out the trash.
- 'Okay, okay. Ha ha ha.'

Did you hear about
the flying saucers, Wilma?

Flying Saucers?
What is it, another joke?

'No, really.
I heard it on TV.'

Some guy says he saw them
flying over Bedrock.

- Is that a riot?
- How silly!

I suppose they're full
of little green men.

And they want
to take over the whole world.

[laughing]

[spaceship droning]

Yabba dabba doo
means I love you

Yabba dabba doo
you love me too

Yabba dabba doo..

I love you

Yabba dabba
dabba dabba doo!

[laughing]

Hey, I'm in
good voice tonight.

sizzle

beep beep

(alien)
'Attention! This is
your leader speaking.'

'You have been duplicated
in the image of an Earth man'

'for the purpose
of taking over the Earth.'

'You are also equipped
with the complete mastery'

'of the language.'

(all together)
Yabba dabba doo.

(alien)
'Excellent!'

'Now, these
are your instructions.'

'As Earth men, you will
mingle with the natives'

'gathering all necessary
pre-invasion data.'

'Is that clear?'

(all together)
Yabba dabba doo!

'Good!'

'Incase of an emergency, you
will rendezvous on my command.'

'And return immediately
to this ship.'

Yabba dabba doo.

'Now, let us move forward.'

[intense music]

Here's your supper, Dino.

[barking]

Goodnight, pal.
See you in the morning.

[slurping]

'Yabba dabba doo.'

(all together)
Yabba dabba doo.

sniff sniff sniff

(alien)
'Attention, this is
your leader speaking.'

'You have reached
your dispersal point.'

'Proceed with your mission.'

Yabba dabba doo.

[intense music]

Out you go, kitty,
and try picking cat fights

in somebody else's yard tonight.

Oh, there you are, Fred.

Will you put this laundry
in the back porch, dear?

I wanna hang it on the line,
first thing in the morning.

Yabba dabba doo.

doing

Yabba dabba doo.

Very funny, Fred.

Oh, you're
a real joker. Okay.

I can be
very funny too, you know.

Well, that's taken care of.

The cat's out.

Dino's been fed and I am baked.

Right after I have a bite
to eat, I'm gonna hit the sack.

Hi, Fred.

Wilma, what're you doing
with that vase?

Yabba dabba doo!

slosh

How's that
for a real belly laugh?

Boy, she's gettin' harder
to understand every day.

Say goodnight
to daddy, Bamm-Bamm.

[muttering]
Goo-gagaga-nighta da-da.

And a goodnight
to you too.

[laughing]

Coochie coochie coo.

[gibberish]

Uh-oh!

Bamm, bamm!
Bamm, bamm, bamm!

Oh, Barney.

[laughing]

When will you learn
not to stick out your finger?

You know Bamm-Bamm doesn't
know his own strength.

Who knows? I might be the father
of the next heavyweight champ.

[laughing]

[snoring]

Yabba dabba doo.

Yabba dabba doo.

Huh?

Barney, wake up.
I think I hear a burglar.

Well, when you're sure,
call the cops.

[snoring]

(Betty)
'Wake up, Barney! Wake up!'

'There's a prowler
in the kitchen.'

A-a-a pr-pr-prowler?

Yes. Quick, do something.

I am! I am!
I'm hiding.

Barney Rubble.

Don't tell me you're afraid
of a little old burglar?

No, it's them big
tough ones I worry about.

Well, here goes.

Hiya, Fred. You seen
a prowler around here?

Yabba dabba doo.

(Barney)
'Hey, Fred.'

screech

- Hey, what goes on here?
- Yabba dabba doo.

I don't mind you
raidin' our icebox

but at least you could
knock before you come in.

bam

Alright, wise guy. I'm gonna
have to ask you to leave.

Yabba dabba doo.

Some nerve!

He left without even
saying goodnight.

Barney, what happened?
Did you find the prowler?

Yeah, it was Fred. He came over
to raid our ice box.

(Betty)
'Fred? Are you sure?'

Oh, it was him alright. He even
hit me with this sandwich.

Well, of all the nerve!

I'm gonna tell Wilma
about this.

Operator, get me
the Flintstone residence.

Boy, I can't
sleep a wink.

This diet Wilma
put me on is for the birds.

Come to think of it,
even a bird would starve.

I'll grab me a sandwich
while Wilma's sleeping.

She'll never know
the difference.

[phone ringing]

Hello? Oh, it's you Betty.

What's wrong? He, what?

He made a shambles
of our kitchen

and att*cked Barney
with a sandwich.

Oh, dear. He must be
sleepwalking again.

He does it every time
he's on a diet.

I'm sorry, Betty,
let me handle this.

The nerve of that man!

He promised
not to break his diet.

Oh boy, this sandwich
will put me to sleep.

(Wilma)
'Fred Flintstone '

Wilma! I-I thought
you were asleep.

Some nerve sneaking out
in the middle on the night

to pull a trick like that.

Honey, I was so hungry
I couldn't sleep.

And besides, it wa-was only
a small sandwich.

(Wilma)
'Don't make excuses.
Betty told me everything.'

How do you like that?

My neighbor's wife
is a stool pigeon.

Now, get back to bed before
you cause any more trouble.

(Fred)
'Yes, dear.'

I wonder how Betty knew
I sneaked the sandwich.

[crowing]

Alright, I'm up! I'm up!

Now shut up, will you!?

I was only doing my job.

Oh Fred,
your breakfast is ready.

I'm coming! I'm coming!
Let me brush my teeth first.

Yabba dabba doo.

What a night!
I'd hardly slept a wink.

Duh, I sure look awful
when I get up.

How can such a handsome guy
look so ugly in the morning?

Must be the diet.
I look gaunt.

Yabba dabba doo.

I hope Fred isn't mad
at me for ordering him

out of the house last night.

I gotta give him a ride
to work this morning.

Oh, I'm sure he's
forgotten all about it.

Yeah, I hope so. Bye.

(Betty)
'Bye, dear.
Have a nice day.'

Good morning, Fred.

No hard feelings
about last night, huh?

Yabba dabba doo.

Yeah, I knew
you'd understand.

After all, what's
a little midnight snack

between neighbors, uh?

[laughing]

Say goodbye to daddy,
Bamm-Bamm.

Bamm, bamm!
Bamm, bamm, bamm!

Uh, goodbye.

[laughing]

vroom

So long, Wilma.
I gotta hurry.

Barney's gonna drive me
to work this morning.

screech

Oh, no! Don't tell me he
left already. What a nerve!

But I thought I saw you
in the car, Fred.

You and Barney just left.

Well, if we did, you're talking

to a pigment
of your imagination.

Some pal. Now I'll have
to drive to work myself.

I don't get it!

There's been a lot of peculiar
things going on all of a sudden.

Gee, Fred, ain't you
got anything to say?

All you do is sit there with
that blank look on your face.

Yabba dabba doo.

No kiddin', Fred.

Lately you've been acting like

you're from outer space
or something.

Well, so long, pal.
Pick you up tonight.

vroom

Yabba dabba doo.

Uh-oh, it's that
Flintstone character.

I better warn the boss.

Fred Flintstone just walked
into the office, Mr. Slate.

squawk

Fred Flintstone just walked
into the office, Mr. Slate.

Well, get rid of him. I'm busy
practicing my golf game.

The future
of our firm is at stake.

Rockwell only gives contracts
to clients who are good golfers.

And we're playing today.

squawk

- Well, get rid of him--
- 'Yeah, yeah, I heard him.'

Relax!

Sorry, Mr. Flintstone,
Mr. Slate is in a conference.

'Yabba dabba doo.'

thud

Well, I'll say
one thing for Flintstone

he's got plenty of nerve.

No more job
but plenty of nerve.

Flintstone, what's the idea
of busting in here like that?

If I don't b*at Rockwell
at golf this afternoon

I'll lose a big contract.

Now, get out of my office
so I can practice my putting.

Flintstone, what're you doing?

[Slate screaming]

thud

You realize, of course,
this action automatically

terminates, ouch,
your employment.

'Yabba dabba doo.'

screech

I better let Mr. Slate know
I missed my ride.

That's why I'm two minutes late.

No one walks over me
and gets away with it.

If I see him again,
I'll pulverize him.

I hope he's in a good mood.

Good morning, Mr. Slate.
I want to explain why I'm late.

You see, I was supposed
to get a ride with--

Flintstone,
get out of my office.

(Slate)
'Get off my property!'

And don't ever come back!

slam


Gee, I wonder if I'm fired.

I'll be frank with you, Slate.

Playing with you
is awfully boring.

You've been in that
sand trap for one hour.

It just takes me a little time
to warm up, J.R. That's all.

By the time you warm up,
the ice age will be over.

Come on, let's
skip this hole.

I say, you can always
tell a mans' business

by his golf score.

Now, that's only fair.
Right, Slate?

Oh, yes, sir.
The fairest.

A man who can't handle a golf
club can't handle a business.

- Right, Slate?
- Oh, yes, sir.

The rightest, J.R.

I'll see you
on the green, Slate.

Try to make it
before sundown.

Oh, brother, the things
I have to put up with

to get a contract
from that old duffer.

If only I could
hit the ball straight

just once to impress him.

Yabba dabba doo.

Flintstone,
I thought I fired you.

And now, now, Flintstone,
let's not be hasty.

You wouldn't strike
a man who wears glasses.

Wow! What a drive!

You surprise me, Flintstone.

(Slate)
'Fore!'

Great start!
A hole in one.

Did you hi
that ball, Slate?

No, J.R. That was my employee.
Fred Flintstone.

Go along with the bit,
Flintstone.

Uh, would you mind
if he joined us?

bam

poing

Yeow!

(J.R)
'Beautiful sh*t, Flintstone.'

At least, 400 yards.

You know, we may be able
to do business after all, Slate.

Oh, thank you.
Thank you.

What'll I tell Wilma?

I don't even know
why I was fired.

Maybe if I crawl to Mr. Slate
on my hands and knees

he'll give me my job back.

I'll try and catch him
at the golf course.

screech

I hope he's still here.

Flintstone,
you are marvelous.

Best game
I've had in years.

I'll send that contract
over in the morning, Slate.

Oh, thank you, J.R.

Let's play again soon,
Flintstone.

Yabba dabba doo.

Peculiar fellow,
that Flintstone.

Doesn't say much.

But his golf game
is out of this world.

There's Mr. Slate now.

I'll get down on
my hand and knees.

I did it!
A great big fat contract.

- I'll be a millionaire!
- Excuse me, Mr. Slate, I--

Flintstone,
my best friend!

Muah!

You were great.
Absolutely marvelous.

Stop in my office in the morning
and we'll talk about a raise.

Nothing extravagant,
of course.

See you tomorrow.

There's something strange
going on lately.

Betty knows I'm eating a
sandwich and snitches to Wilma.

The boss fires me for being two
minutes late and hires me back.

I don't know.
Maybe I'm cracking up.

Yabba dabba doo.

Oh, hiya, Fred.

Hiya, Fred!?
I'm Fred.

Hey, you!
Just a rock pickin' minute.

Alright buster, what's
the idea of impersonating me?

Yabba dabba doo.

Another me?
Come back here.

screech

Now, where did
that guy go?

And who is he?

[laughing]

Oh, I get it!

This is some kind of a joke

the boys from the lodge
are pulling.

I'm sorry about
last night, Betty.

Ever since Fred's been on a diet
he's been acting peculiar.

Speaking about acting peculiar,
look who's coming up the street.

It's Fred!

[whistling]

Well, of all the nerve.

Hey, Wilma,
did you see me go by here?

Yes, I did. And I also
saw you flirting with a girl.

- How dare you?
- I can explain everything.

- Now, which way did I go?
- That way.

Thanks.

Alright, you phony Flintstone.
I know who you are.

Yabba dabba doo.

(Fred)
Hold it, and don't give me
that yabba dabba doo stuff.

bang

Yabba dabba doo.

thud

Another me? Oh, boy, those guys
will pull anything for a gag.

Come on, fellas.
I'm wise to ya.

(alien)
'Attention, pre-invasion force.'

'This is your leader.
Come in, please.'

You guys can't fool me.

I know who you are
and what you're up to.

'Something has gone wrong.'

'The Earthlings
have discovered us.'

'We'll have to
make a run for it.'

'All units regroup immediately
and return to ship.'

'That is all.'

bam

Yabba dabba doo.

(all together)
Yabba dabba doo.

Very funny. Very funny
but the joke's over.

If you guys wanna play rough,
I can play rough too.

Alright, rock head, shale,
and the rest of you guys.

I know you're under
them stupid masks.

I'm gonna bring
you all in. Ha ha!

screech

Oh, come on,
you guys. Hold it!

Yeow!

thud

That does it.
I can take a joke.

But you guys are carrying
this thing too far.

There's no use hiding,
I got you cornered.

(Fred)
'Where are we?
What kind of a place is this?'

(alien)
'Attention, robots.'

'Our plan has been uncovered.'

'Our ranks have been
infiltrated by an Earthling.'

'We're in danger and must
return to our own planet.'

'Will the real Fred Flintstone
please identify himself?'

Alright, spaceman.
I'll go along with the gag.

[laughing]

I'm the real Fred Flintstone.
Which one of you is Barney?

(Fred)
'Hey, wait a minute. Let go!'

thud

Holy mackerel!
That's a real flyin' saucer.

Those guys were gonna
inv*de the Earth.

And I stopped them.

Wow! I'm a hero!

Wait till Wilma
hears about this.

Fred, we demand to know
what's going on.

You've been acting
very strange.

Raiding our icebox.

Hitting me on the head
with a sandwich.

(Wilma)
'And flirting with girls.'

[laughing]

Take it easy, everybody.
I can explain everything.

You see, there was this flying
saucer from another planet

with ten guys in it
who look like me.

One of 'em hit Barney
on the head with a sandwich.

Another lost me my job.

'They got me in
all kinds of trouble.'

- Flying saucer?
- Ten Flintstones?

From another planet?

Yeah, but I chased them
back into the saucer

and got rid of them.

[Barney laughing]

(Barney)
'Oh boy, what a story.'

I think I understand, Fred.

You've been
on that diet too long.

You've having
hallucinations.

[all laughing]

Hey, wait a minute! Aren't you
gonna call the papers?

I'm a hero!

Come inside, hero.

I'm gonna fix you
a big dinner.

(Wilma)
'You can forget the diet.'

Oh, boy, what gratitude!

That's the last time
I saved the world for them.

Forget the diet?

Hey, Wilma, wait for me!

What're we having
for dinner, honey?

Wait for me, Wilma!

[theme music]

Flintstones
meet the Flintstones

They're the modern
stone age family

From the town of Bedrock

They're a page
right out of history

Someday maybe
Fred will win the fight

And the cat
will stay out for the night

When you're
with the Flintstones

Have a yabba dabba doo time

A dabba doo time

You'll have a gay old time

thud

We'll have a gay old time

Wilma!
