Quotes
-
[after Wilma buys new furniture]
Fred Flintstone : So help me, I'll never bet again. There's a better way. Barney?
Barney Rubble : Yes, Fred?
Fred Flintstone : Here's a rag for you and one for me.
Barney Rubble : Well, uh, what's the rag for, Fred?
Fred Flintstone : Dusting. What else? We might get lucky and find some money to help pay for all this.
-
Betty Rubble : Oh, here comes Barney, Wilma.
Wilma Flintstone : Did you find out anything, Barney?
Barney Rubble : [walks by] I sure did.
Betty Rubble , Wilma Flintstone : Well? What did you find out?
Barney Rubble : [walks by again, carrying a TV set] I found out that Fred Flintstone is no friend of mine.
Wilma Flintstone : What's that supposed to mean, Betty?
Betty Rubble : I don't know.
Wilma Flintstone : Betty, did you happen to notice what Barney was carrying when he left your house?
Betty Rubble : Mm-hmm. Our TV set.
Wilma Flintstone : That's what I thought, but why?
Betty Rubble : I don't know. Let's find out.
Wilma Flintstone : Yeah, lets. There's something funny going on with TV sets lately.
-
Wilma Flintstone : Fred, what's going on?
Fred Flintstone : [chuckles nervously] Oh. I, uh, I, uh, told Barney I loaned our TV to Arnold's boys' club and good old Barney, he said, and I quote, uh, ''You can have mine until you get yours back.''
[chuckles]
Fred Flintstone : Wasn't that nice of him?
Wilma Flintstone : Fred Flintstone, you give that set back to Barney.
Barney Rubble : You heard what the lady said, Fred. You heard it.
Fred Flintstone : You, Barney, are a false friend.
Barney Rubble : [leaves with his TV set] Right, Fred. And we false friends like to watch our TV programs.
-
Wilma Flintstone : I just can't stay mad at Fred. Sometimes he does such nice things.
Barney Rubble : I still think there's something fishy about it.
[Wilma, Betty, and Barney enter the Flintstones' home and Barney notices something]
Wilma Flintstone : Well, Fred isn't home yet. I'll make some coffee. You two sit down and get comfortable.
Barney Rubble : Sit down? On what?
Betty Rubble : The furniture's all gone!
Wilma Flintstone : Well, that does it. I know Fred's betting again when all the furniture's gone. I've had five years of that.
-
Barney Rubble : A fellow needs a little fun money hidden. You never know what might turn up. A little dough stashed away in the holes of a bowling ball saves a lot of arguing.
Fred Flintstone : Barney?
Barney Rubble : Yes, Fred?
Fred Flintstone : Does Betty do a lot of dusting?
Barney Rubble : Why, uh, yeah, she's always dusting.
Fred Flintstone : I'll bet that dough has been dusted right out of that ball.
Barney Rubble : [looks inside his bowling ball] Fred, you're right! Betty beat me to it!
