[Wilma sighs] 'Cobblestone Beach, don't you just love it'
'on a hot summer's day like this, Betty?'
Oh, it's just wonderful and so good for the children.
Including our husbands.
[chuckles] Look at Fred.
[laughs]
Isn't that cute? Pebbles buried me in the sand.
[laughs]
[babbling]
Hey, Pebbles, where are you going?
Let me out of here. I'm stuck in the sand.
Wilma!
Relax, Fred. I'll get you out.
But it isn't easy to pass up this opportunity.
Oh, cut it out. Ha ha ha. Oh, stop it.
[laughs]
If you don't stop making me laugh
I'm gonna get awful mad with you.
[laughs]
There you are, all safe and sound.
Honestly, Fred, sometimes you're just a big baby.

Hey, Fred, here comes a pass into the end zone
from Johnny Stoneitis to Crazylegs Flintstone.
I got it, Barney.
Right through the old Fred basket.
[mumbling]
[Barney laughing]
You really put your foot in your mouth that time, Fred?
Uh, football, that is.
[laughs]
Hey, what was that?
Oh, some tourist taking pictures of, uh, of us he-men, I guess.
[laughs]
Look, if you can't throw a football right, Barn
just don't throw it, will you?
Oh, Fred, how about getting us some brontosaurus burgers?
Yeah, we're developing big appetites
watching all this exercise. He he he.
Okay, I could use a bite myself.
Six brontosaurus burgers.
Gee, Fred, aren't you gonna order any for us?
[laughs]
Will you stop with that cornball humor?
Oh, I'm, uh, sorry, Fred.
Huh?
Hey, Fred, somebody just measured me.
I'm gonna measure you for a right to the jaw
if you don't stop with the joke.
I know, maybe it's those guys from "Peek-A-Boo Camera"
after me for their TV show.
I think somebody should be after you with a net.
Gee, I don't know, Fred. I'm kinda cute.
[both laughing]
(Fred) 'I guess you are, Barney, I guess you are.'
I think we have found him. The one they call Barney.
Yes, he fits the description.
Praise be. At last our search has ended.
Let us report our findings.
Yes, then we shall tell him the great news.
Barney, aren't you eating anything?
Uh, no, Betty. I gotta watch my figure.
[laughs]
Barney thinks somebody's after him for a TV show.
Well, it figures, two guys first took my picture
click, and then my measurements.
Of course, Hollyrock's been after him for years.
Well, maybe, it's this, uh, Mr. America physique they like.
[laughing]
Alright, muscles, how about helping me
get things in the car? It's time to go home.
Hey, Fred, look behind us.
Two guys in a mastodon.
'They must have awful headaches.'
'They've got towels wrapped around their heads.'
Eh, those aren't towels, Barney. They're turbans.
No, a turban is some kind of a turtle.
No, that's a terrapin. Right, Wilma?
No, a terrapin is something to jump off.
You mean a trampoline?
I know 'cause I nearly cracked my head on one once.
Yeah, then you had to wear a towel on your head.
[laughing]
Oh, what's the use?
[all laughing]
Here you are, Rubbles, home safe and sound.
Uh, don't look now
but, uh, there's those
two towel-headed guys again.
(Fred) 'They must have taken a shortcut.'
Get ready.
(both) Ola, Salima. Ola, Salima.
Uh, me Rubble. Uh, you guys talk English?
Uh, you wanna see me about somethin'?
Oh, long lost prince of Stony Rockarabia.
At last our search has ended. We have found you.
Gee, I didn't even know I was lost.
Uh, I don't think I quite got you guys.
We shall explain.
Many years ago, the prince of Rockarabia disappeared.
Here's the last picture taken of him when he was but a child.
We have been without a leader since then.
We have scientifically narrowed the search down to you
O Marvelous One.
Everyone, bow before Prince Barbaruba.
(Fred) Oh, no, you don't.
I'm not bowing before Barney Rubble. Nothing doing.
Fred, this might be true. Barney could be a real prince.
Right, I think we should go along
with this until we're sure.
Look, the children are getting into the spirit of things.
[babbling]
Oga, Salima.
[laughing]
Hey, you too, Fred, we gotta do this right.
Oh, brother.
Come on, Fred. It won't hurt this once.
- Ola, Salima. Ola, Salima. - Ola, Salima. Ola, Salima.
Good. Now we must take His Greatness
to the Rocktop Plaza Hotel.
Watch your step, O Lord and Master.
[laughs] Hey, don't worry, folks.
I intend to remain my ownself.
Charming, humble--
That's it, Rubble. Rub it in. Rub it in!
Why are you taking him away?
What's at the Rocktop Plaza?
We must prepare him for his coronation tomorrow.
He will receive lessons in diction
dancing and country running. Good day.
Barney, will you be alright?
Oh, don't worry, Betty. Nothing will happen to me.
Oops! Ha ha ha.
I, uh, I wanna see what this is all about.
Uh, I'll see you later.
(Betty) 'Just imagine, Wilma, my own Barney'
a fabulously wealthy royal prince.
It's unbelievable.
We'll probably live in a luxurious castle with servants--
Oh, come on, you girls don't really believe
that Barney is royal, do you?
It certainly looks that way, Fred.
Well, seeing is believing.
And all I saw was two guys taking him away.
He could be kidnapped.
Remember, Betty, he's only your husband
but he's my best pal.
Now I'm going down to the Rocktop Plaza
'and check this story out.'
'It's all too pat to suit me.'
Oh, Fred, of course, it's legitimate.
It's all here in this morning's "Bedrock Slab."
"Some visiting Rockarabians from Stony Rockarabia
are here seeking a missing heir."
Barney turned out to be the heir.
Eh, that story could be a plant, you know.
I'm not taking any chances.
No point in confusing Fred with facts.
When he puts his detective hat on, he's gone.
screech screech screech
"The Rocktop Plaza Hotel. Bedrock's Finest."
'This is it.'
'Boy, they sure picked the fancy hideout.'
I'll be very quiet and discreet about this.
Alright, where is he?
Where is who?
You know who
the guy kidnapped by two guys
with towels on their heads. Where is he?
I'm sorry, the entire hotel has been leased
until after the coronation.
I don't want a room. I want my pal. Where is he?
I'm afraid you're sadly mistaken, sir, as well as a nut.
[ringing]
Our new bellboy will show you out.
I'm not leaving till I'm ready.
gulp
[nervous laughter]
I'm ready.
Boy, if they knew what it meant to get Fred Flintstone sore
they'd be more careful.
Now how am I gonna get in there?
I got it. When in Rome, make like an Arab.
Or, uh, something like that.
[laughing]
In this Arab outfit, I could slip by that clerk and bellhop
just like one of those towel-headed guys.
Are the musicians here yet?
I'm checking them in now.
- Bongos. - Bongos.
First base.
- Shortstop. - Shortstop.
Shortstop?
One moment there. You, fat one.
'Aha! Just as I thought.'
An infiltrator. Have him ejected.
Of course, sir, at once.
[ringing]
Front.
Oh, that bellhop is all I don't need.
wham
[roaring]
You better be careful, big boy.
I happen to be pretty handy with my dukes.
[grunting]
And, and furthermore, I'm a proficient exponent
of the deadly art of karate.
[grunting]
[panting]
You're a kind of a hard guy to get close to.
[roaring]
Hey, you wouldn't hit a guy with contact lenses, would you?
His interruptions must be dealt with in a positive manner.
Now then shall we get on with the arrangements?
Luckily, I took pole vaulting in high school.
I'll just pole vault up into a window and find Barney.
bang
Well, the idea was good.
Now to find Barney.
They probably got him chained up someplace.
'Hey, just look at that.'
'Rubble in there living it up like a king'
'while I'm knocking my brains out trying to rescue him.'
I don't mind a pat on the back once in a while
but this is ridiculous.
Can you beat that?
Maybe Rubble is a royal prince after all.
Hey, Flux, look, an interloper.
Hey, I'm-I'm no interlofer.
I'm-I'm just, uh, an ignorant bystander.
[chuckles]
- 'Come along.' - Uh, hey, hey, let go.
Hey!
thud
What is this intrusion? What's going on?
We discovered this intruder, Your Royalness.
Bow, peasant.
You better bow, Fred.
Are you kidding?
[laughing]
thud
I'm sorry, Fred, but those are the rules.
Everybody bows before Barbarubababa..
Uh, yeah, that's me.
If you think I'm gonna spend my life bowing to you
you are nuts.
Shall we execute him, master?
Oh, I think I'll spare him this time.
Uh, you may leave now, guards.
[laughing]
I came up here to bring you home, not to get insulted.
Okay, alright, so you don't need my help.
I'm going home.
Barney Barbaruba, oh, boy.
Hey, uh, aren't you gonna stay for, uh, supper, Fred?
Nothing doing, I got my pride.
(Barney) 'We-we-we have roast pterodactyl'
'and a fillet of saltasaurus, and, uh, uh, rockablintzes.'
Well, I really could stand some rockablintzes..
...as long as it's okay with Your Highness.
You might have your pride, Fred, but your appetite is bigger.
[both laughing]
(Betty) 'It's getting awful late, Wilma.'
Fred might be right.
Maybe Barney really is in trouble.
I think we should go find both Fred and Barney.
Okay, Betty, if it'll make you feel any better.
I'll call a babysitter and you get out the car.
Why not? We may as well play detective too.
How are the plans for the coronation going?
Excellent, sir.
Excuse me, uh, I'd like to see the new prince.
I'm afraid he's indisposed.
Indisposed?
You just tell him his wife is here.
And his best friend's wife too.
Oh, uh, uh..
Oh, uh, of course, I-I did not realize.
Right this way, please.
That's better.
Take the elevator to the eighth floor.
- What's on the eighth floor? - The prince's harem, of course.
I don't know if it's good with Barney
being so important all of a sudden.
Eight floor, please.
squawk
Eighth floor! Eighth floor!
It's always up, up, up.
[panting]
Nobody ever wants to go to the basement.
Imagine having to get permission to see your own husband.
I prefer him to be just plain, old Barney. The poor dear.
He's probably bored to tears with all this royal humdrum.
Betty, look.
Good heavens! That man sent us into a harem.
Oh, a couple of new girls for the prince, huh?
New girls!
For the prince?
You mean, all these girls are for Barney?
Of course, but remember, we girls were here first.
We have, uh, seniority. He he he.
Don't worry, girls, there's only about 200 of us ahead of you.
[laughing]
We will see about that.
No wonder Fred didn't come back.
I just don't believe Barney would do this.
Halt! Halt!
It is forbidden for a mere woman
to enter without permission.
A mere woman?
What do you mean, young man?
How dare you speak to us in that tone?
[indistinct yelling]
It is written, do not argue with a woman.
Will that be all, oh, Noble Ruler of all beloved sovereign?
Uh, yeah, yeah. Thanks, you guys.
Uh, that was a great dinner, specially the rockablintzes.
Oh, I'll see you later, waiter.
[laughing]
Beats heck out of bowlin', huh, Barney?
Hey, what's next, Your Royal Princeship?
Announcing with Your Majesty's permission..
clang
...His Majesty's royal harem.
[giggling]
gulp
Look, Fred, those are g-g-g-girls.
You ought to select a hundred or so for wives, sire.
A hundred w-wives?
[indistinct chatter]
Oh, I'll take his fat friend.
We're happily married cowards.
Yeah, let's get out of here.
[giggling]
If our real wives saw us now, we'd be in big trouble.
I shudder to think of it.
Luckily, they're home and they can't..
Yipe! Looks like they can.
Barney, what's going on?
Fred, explain.
Well, I..
[mumbling]
[indistinct chatter]
Barney Rubble, who are all those girls?
Uh, gee, I thought you'd never ask.
Well, uh, they-they're just some loyal subjects, dear.
What's your excuse, Fred? And make it good.
I'm thinkin', I'm thinkin'.
Oh, brother, and we were worried about them?
Come on, Betty.
Can't you do somethin', Barn?
You're the head guy around here.
Hey, that's right.
Okay, girls. That's enough.
'Back to your rooms. That's an order.'
As you say, o handsome master.
Ola, Salima. Ola, Salima.
Now all we gotta do is explain to Betty and Wilma
about the girls.
Well, start explaining.
Well, well, I, be-be.. Oh, boy.
You see, somehow I got engaged to all those girls, and, uh--
- Engaged? Why you-- - Easy, Betty.
Uh, but-but let me finish--
Oh, we better leave before we finish. Come on, Barn.
(Betty) This has gone too far.
(Wilma) 'Come back here, Fred Flintstone.'
Here comes His Majesty.
Let's give him a real, good bow this time.
We need time to think. Just keep runnin'.
- I am. I am. - Oops!
thud thud
Oh, boy. Here they come.
Make like an elephant, Fred. Uh, maybe they won't notice us.
So, this is what you want, Barney Rubble.
Partying, dancing girls, and now silly games.
'Well, I should have known. Come on, Wilma, we are leaving.'
And as for you, Fred Flintstone
you're going to have to decide.
It's either this kind of life or me. Goodbye!
Wilma.
Now look what you did.
You got us locked out of our own homes.
Our wives are right, Fred. I can't go through with this.
What good is being a hotshot king without my Betty?
Yeah! Yeah, I-I couldn't go on without Wilma either.
[sniffles]
I-I'm gonna tell them
to call the whole thing off.
Hey, now you're talkin', Barney boy.
Cancel the royal coronation?
Yeah, that's right. I'm turnin' in my towel, uh, turban.
Uh, with all due respect, O Royal One
it is not possible to abdicate the throne of Stony Arabia.
It is written
"Disaster awaits he
who shirks the duties of the crown."
It would be our obligation to fulfill the prophecy.
We pray you understand, O Mighty Ruler.
Well, now, uh..
gulp
Uh, uh, I-I think
I get the point.
Isn't there anything we can do, Fred?
Well, for one, do you have to wear that silly hat?
It's forbidden for King Barbarabuba
to-to show his head.
I hope it's okay to use your head.
We gotta get out of here.
Hey, Fred, didn't you sneak in that window earlier?
Yeah. Yeah! Good idea, Barn.
What came in can go out.
I'll go first to make sure the coast is clear.
It's most regrettable we must do this, sire.
But it is the law of our land!
Hey, is the coast clear, Fred?
crash
No! Oh. But I got a better idea.
Steady. Now, all set, Barn?
Oh, uh, I think so.
Okay, now close the overcoat and we can sneak out.
They'll be lookin' for two shorter guys
instead of one tall one.
(Barney) Just don't steer me wrong.
It's dark in here.
Uh, I, uh, seem to be lost. He-he-he.
Just a tourist from Tallville passin' through.
Tallville?
Say, aren't you the friend of His Majesty?
Oh, uh, you're thinkin' of my twin brother.
He's much shorter than I am. Ha-ha-ha.
thud
You wish something, O Magnificent One?
Oh, uh, uh, no.
Ola, Salima.
We shall soon crown you.
Looks like you're stuck, Barney.
Miserably rich for the rest of your life.
[trumpet music]
"If there be anyone who has just cause why this coronation
"should not be consummated
let him speak now or forever hold his tongue."
Going once.
I guess I'll never see my family again, Fred.
They, they'll take me far away to Stony Arabia.
[sniffles]
Going twice.
Going for the third and last time.
- 'Hold the throne.' - Hold the throne?
There's been a mistake.
That Barbaruba is an imposter.
We have found the real heir.
We have proof and here it is.
It is written, "And the ruler shall wear the royal scarab."
This is the real Barbaruba.
Oh, gee, that's great.
I'm poor again. Oh, boy.
No more money. Nothin'.
Oh, please forgive us, sire.
We almost made a tragic mistake.
We plead for your royal forgiveness, O Mighty One.
Uh, excuse me, uh, can my friend and I go now?
Ah, it's the imposter.
Shall I have him eliminated, O Great One?
Nah, the little guy has an honest face. Let him go.
Thanks, O Great One. Hot-diggity!
Let's go, Barn! The girls are waitin'!
Yabba dabba doo!
I'm with you.
(Betty) 'Maybe we were a little harsh with the boys, Wilma.'
Maybe we were, Betty.
After all, they were involved in a difficult situation
not of their own making.
I miss my Barney so much.
I'd gladly bow down to him like all those servants
if he'd just come home.
[sobs]
That goes double for me, Betty.
Hey, did you hear that last bit, Fred?
Yeah, let's go.
(Barney) Okay, girls, we're home.
(Fred) 'Start bowing.'
(Betty) 'Barney, you're back.'
Oh, Fred, I'm so happy.
Oh, we knew you'd come back.
Yeah, it turned out that Barn wasn't a prince after all.
Yeah, lucky for me. He he he.
Eh, eh, there's one more thing.
Oh, yeah, somethin' about bowin' if I came home.
Oh, brother.
[giggling]
Ola, Salima.
- Ola, Salima. - Ola Salima.
- 'Ola, Salima.' - Ola Salima.
That's not really what we meant.
Come here, Barn.
You see, Barney might not be a prince
and I'm not a king
but to us, you two will always be queens.
- Ola, Salima. - Ola, Salima.
[laughing]
Oh, you're wrong. You both are kings.
Look over there.
'Your loyal subjects still adore you.'
- Ola, Salima. - Ola, Salima.
[barking]
Hey, this sure is a cozy little kingdom.
