[Barney] So long, Betty. I'm off to the bowling alley with Fred.
[Betty] Bye, Barney. Don't be too late.
[humming]
I think I'll take the shortcut.
Oops! I forgot about Fred's new fish pond.
Yowch!
Boy, those cannibal fish are better than a watchdog.
- Come in. - Hi, Fred. You all set?
- Set for what? - Bowling. What else?
It's bowling night tonight, remember?
Oh, that's right. I almost forgot.
Be right with you, Barney.
Let me see. Tennis racket, golf clubs, snow shoes.
Aha! Here we are, bowling ball.
Hey, Wilma! I'm leaving for the bowling alley.
Why don't you take Dino with you? He's been in the house all day.
Dino? He don't bowl.
[whimpering]
Oh, all right.
Come on, you can sit in the car while we bowl.

- Dino sounds better than you, Fred. - Agh!
Hey, by the way, did you remember to make a reservation?
Yep. We got Alley 13.
Oh, fine. That's...
Alley 13?
Fred, that's the unlucky alley.
What are you talking about? Unlucky alley.
Well, the last guys who used Alley 13 all came down with the bowlers' bends.
Bowlers' bends?
Of all the silly...
Look out, Fred! Hit the brakes.
A black catasaurus, Fred.
Hey, scat! Shoo, shoo! Beat it!
I don't like it, Fred. That black catasaurus crossed your path.
And you know what that means.
[Fred] Yeah, that means that you're a superstitious lunkhead.
Now knock it off.
You wait in the car, Dino, till after the game.
Here, I'll play the radio for you.

I got a feeling, Barney, tonight's gonna be my lucky night.
I don't know, Fred.
- Hey, Fred, look out! - Huh?
- What's the matter? - You walked under a ladder.
That's more bad luck.
One more time, Barney,
one more time, and you're gonna get a hex on the head.
Now, come on, let's bowl.
I feel lucky tonight, Barney.
Stand back and watch the old master make a strikeroonee!
[clicking tongue]
What did I tell you, Fred? Alley 13.
"Alley 13. Alley 13."
Will you stop with that black magic talk? You're throwing me off my game.
A strike! Ha, ha!
What does your superstitious mind think of that?
Look, Fred.
I was robbed. That's all I got to say.
By whom? That's the spooky question.
All right, Fred. Give me a logical explanation for that.
It's easy, Barney.
It's that screwy reverse hook you got.
[laughing]
Yabba-dabba-doo!
Hey, Fred. Fred, you all right?
[babbling]
- Fred, speak to me. - Uh...
Ee...
Tell me a story, Mommy.
Fred it's me, Barney. I'm not your mommy.
I want a glass of water, Mommy.
- How is he, Mac? - Knocked him cold, huh?
Oh, worse than that.
He thinks he's a kid again.
Yeah, you better get him to a doctor.
Yeah.
He might think he's a baby and want his bottle.
Where we going, Mommy?
Mommy's taking her little boy to see a doctor.
[wails]
I don't wanna see a doctor.
Gee, I gotta find a doctor quick or I'll be babysitting all night.
Uh-oh.
There's one that looks open for business. "Dr. Sigrock Freep."
Good evening, gentlemen. What can I do for you?
Well, my friend Freddie isn't well. He got hit on the head by a bowling ball.
Mama, Mama, Mama.
Aha. Very, very interesting, ja.
Obviously a case of cranus spheroidus.
- Huh? What's that? - He is allergic to bowling balls.
Now, sit the patient down und we proceed with the beginning, ja?
I get one of mine delicate instruments.
So we are ready?
Wait a minute, doc. What's with that hammer?
That's a stupid question. I am with the hammer. [giggles]
But do not worry. I am as gentle as a pussycat.
Watch me.
I will check the patient's reflexes, ja?
Mama, Mama.
Oh, isn't that cute.
Hey, get on with it, doc.
First, the knee bones, the left knee.
Very, very interesting.
The right knee.
Amazing.
And finally, the point of the whole test.
The head bone. Yow!
Just as I suspected.
What, doc? What, what, what?
My wisdom tooth is loose.
Bring him into the laboratory.
Don't worry, Fred, old pal. I'm with you.
I will run a few tests.
Now, don't hurt him, doc.
First, the blood pressure.
But, doc, shouldn't we be doing something about his head?
Ja, ja, now we'll really look into the whole subject.
Bring him to my x-ray machine.
Then we get the inside information, ja?
Now we start.
Very, very interesting. There's his problem.
He's got no bones.
No bones? Why, that's impossible.
I know Fred's got bones in his head.
Your machine is wrong.
Ja, ja, here's the trouble.
The light is not on. Mm-hm.
The pilot has gone out again. I whistle for him.
Aha. That's much better.
Nah, but that's bad.
Very, very bad.
- What? What's wrong with him, doc? - It's obvious.
He was conked on the noggin bone, which is connected to the neck bone,
the neck bone connected to the backbone,
the backbone connected to the leg bone,
- the leg bone connected... - Stop, stop! I can't stand the suspense.
What's the horrible news?
He has got flat-footers.
I will have to operate at once.
Operate?
But no one ever fixes a head by operating on feet.
Really? Well, well, what do you know?
Another first for me.
Here's something I wanted to try for some time.
But, doc, how come you're putting Fred in that box?
And what's with that saw?
I always got a couple of tricks up my sleeve.
You mind if I cut in?
Hey, doc, doc. You're splitting up a beautiful friendship.
You know what they say, two Freds are better than one.
Oh, poor Fred. I can't look.
Ooh, ah!
It's tragic.
No, it's magic.
You see, in this box, he's all in one piece.
Und the other half has dummy legs.
Oh, boy. And you're a dummy doc.
Und now, for my next trick, I make him disappear.
Hey, hold it, doc.
For the next trick, we'll both disappear.
Say, that's good. [laughs]
I gotta learn that one.
I'd better find another doctor.
Now, let me see, accountants, carpenters, dog catchers.
Oh, here we are. "Mad doctors."
"Dr. Boulderheimer.
Dr. Kilarock.
Dr. Len Frankenstone.
711 Monster Drive."
Hey, that's in the neighborhood.
I'll take Fred there.
Oh, but first I'll call Betty and tell her what happened.
[ringing]
Bam! Bam! Bam-bam-bam!
Honk! Honk! Honk-honk!
All right, Bamm-Bamm. I'll wait.
Thank you.
Hello?
Oh, hello, Barney.
Fred's been hit with a bowling ball? Is he all right?
Well, it's kind of hard to figure. I'll let you talk to him.
It's Betty, Fred. Say something.
[babbling]
What do you think?
I think you ought to take him to a doctor.
That's what I figured.
I'm on my way to Dr. Frankenstone's office now.
Good. I'll get Wilma and meet you there.
I'm glad you came, Dr. Zero.
I want you to see my latest experiment.
Something new in the annals of prehistoric medicine.
Len. Len Frankenstone.
Why do you persist?
Don't you know a rolling pill gathers no moss?
Something inside me cries out,
"Be a mad doctor. Be a mad doctor."
All right, all right, it's your neck.
Let's see it.
Step into my laboratory, doctor, and I'll show you.
I don't like it, Len Frankenstone.
I don't like it.
[snarling]
[laughing]
I call this my personality transfer machine.
Watch carefully, doctor.
See what happens when I pull the switch.
[snarling]
[laughing]
Len, you've switched their personalities.
Right. What do you say now, Dr. Zero?
What do I say?
I say call the wagon, you have flipped.
Turn in your stethoscope, Len, before it's too late.
Not before I try my experiment on a human being.
Come in.
Dr. Frankenstone, I presume? My name is Rubble.
Dr. Zero, look.
The perfect subject for my experiment.
Hey, I got a problem, doctor.
Don't worry, Mr. Rubble, your problem will soon be over.
Leave everything to me.
Hold it, doctor. I'm not sick.
It's my pal, Fred Flintstone.
Sorry.
Don't panic, Flintstone.
I know just what to do.
When I finish, you'll be a new man or something.
Len. Len, don't do it.
Release the patient.
Stop bugging me, Zero.
I've just got to be a mad doctor.
I wonder how Fred is doing.
[Fred] Ah! There you are, Barney.
Hey, what happened?
What are we doing in a doctor's office?
Well, you got hit on the head with a bowling ball, Dino, and...
Dino?
You're talking like Fred.
Oh, knock it off, Barney. I got a splitting headache.
I'll go pay the doctor, and we'll get out of here.
Hey, doc, what do I owe you, pal?
Gee.
Maybe I ought to see the doctor. I could have sworn that was Dino.
Oh, Barney. I'm so glad you're still here.
How's Fred?
Yeah, how's his head?
His head?
Well, uh, buh, that's bad enough, but what really gets me is his tail.
Tail? What are you talking about?
Why don't you call him and see for yourself?
Oh, Fred! It's me, Wilma.
Are you all right?
[yapping]
Oh, Fred, stop your clowning.
Hi, Wilma. I thought I heard you calling me.
What are you doing down here?
Fred? I mean, Dino.
I mean, Fred. I mean... What's going on?
Wilma, meet Dr. Frankenstone.
How do you do, madam?
You... You... You...
What have you done to my husband or Dino or whatever the case may be?
Go ahead, Len. You wanted to be a mad doctor.
Now give the poor woman an explanation.
[wailing]
I'm married to a dinosaurus.
Hey, wait. What's everybody crying about?
Come on, let's get out of here, Wilma. I'm starved.
I could go for a nice soup bone.
Did you hear that, doctor? He wants a soup bone.
Aren't you ashamed, Len Frankenstone?
All right, all right, I goofed.
Everybody back to the laboratory. On the double.
Len. Len-boy. Now you're talking.
Come on, Dino. Back to the laboratory.
[yapping]
Hey, I'll keep Fred company, Wilma.
Here, Fred. Here, Fred.
Hey, Fred.
No, Fred.
Dino.
Down, boy. Down Fred.
Fre... Dino.
Heel, Fred. Heel, boy.
Okay, okay, doggy. Back to the laboratory.
[energy crackling]
[yapping]
It's Dino.
And he's back to normal.
[Fred] Okay, Wilma. We can leave now.
[Wilma] Fred, you're not Dino anymore.
[Betty] Thank goodness.
Come on, honey. I'll take you home and fix you a nice big...
[Barney's voice] Hi, sweetheart. Sorry to keep you waiting.
Oh, it's Barney... I mean, it's Fred.
[Fred's voice] What is she talking about, Wilma?
Oh, no!
You're not Fred. You're Barney.
And Barney's Fred.
Yeah, and you're Cleopatra.
- Now stop kidding and let's go home. - [laughs]
Maybe the girls ought to see a doctor, huh, Fred?
What's the trouble, ladies? What's all the racket about?
Look what you've done. You've switched their personalities.
Hey, control yourself, Wilma. You're getting high-sterical.
High-ste... Hysterical?
Who wouldn't be? I didn't marry him.
What are you complaining about, Wilma? Look what I'm stuck with.
Well, if that's the way you feel about it, I'm leaving.
Me too. Let's go, Barney.
Well, Len Frankenstone, are you proud of yourself?
One dumb experiment and you've broken up two families.
All right, all right.
Everybody back to the laboratory.
I don't get it, Fred. What's all the fuss about?
Oh, you know women, Barney.
It's like when they go shopping.
They're always returning things.
- Oh, I'm so nervous. - Me too.
Hold it, doc. One question before you pull that switch.
Yeah, yeah, what is it?
How would you like to have my seat?
[laughing]
There, that should do it.
All right, Mr. Flintstone, you can leave now.
[Wilma's voice] Thank goodness.
[Fred's voice] I'm getting tired of this routine.
[Betty's voice] Me too. Let's get out of here.
[Barney's voice] I'm with you.
Len Frankenstone, now look what you have done.
So long, Frankenstone.
If you ever need any excavation work, call me and I'll bring my shovel.
[laughing]
Hey, how would you like to join our lodge, doc?
Us Water Buffaloes have a ball. You know what I mean?
[laughing]
Now what, Len? Now what?
What else? Back to the drawing board.
All right, Len. Try again.
And keep your fingers crossed.
Well? Well?
Somebody say something.
[yapping]
[Zero's voice] Stop that racket, Dino.
Oh, no.
My electric bill. It's gonna be murder.
I feel fine now. How about you, Betty?
Just perfect.
You all right, Barney?
Well, yeah, sure. How you feeling, Fred?
Never felt better in my life.
[yapping]
Len.
Len, you did it.
Look at those happy faces.
You have restored their normal personalities, Len.
What do you say now, doctor?
[Fred's voice] What do I say?
Yabba-dabba-do!
Well, it took most of the night, but we finally made it.
[Barney] Yeah, it's good to know that I'm me.
Thank goodness we're all back to normal.
You can say that again. What a night.
[yapping]
Believe me, I've seen my last doctor.
I promise never to have an accident again.
Oh, my foot! My foot!
Ooh! It's busted!
Oh, the pain!
Get a doctor, quick! Quick!
Pardon me, did someone call for a doctor?
- Huh? - The name is Dracuslab. Dr. Dracuslab.
It was all my fault. I will take care of you.
Wilma! Let's get out of here!
Why? Why do they always run away from me?
It's beginning to drive me bats.
[chittering]
Away, Charlie. I wasn't talking to you.
Well, time for another house call.
[all chittering]
Oh, that was a lovely dinner, Wilma.
Yeah, nothing like Chinese food to fill you up.
How about some more of that sweet and sour pterodactyl, Wilma?
Pterodactyl.
Give me. Give me, give me.
Ah, ha-ha-ha.
Ain't that cute? Pebbles is still hungry.
Here, sweetheart. Try some of this brontosaurus suey.
[man's voice] Mm! That's real crazy, Pop.
Can I have some more?
Why, sure, honey...
Pebbles. You spoke.
You can talk.
[laughing]
That was me, Fred.
How do you like my ventriloquism?
I should be in show business, huh?
I'll show-business you, Barney. After all we've been through.
Now, now, take it easy, Fred. I was only kidding.
Come back here, wise guy!
I'm gonna kid you right to the moon.
Come on out, Barney. I know you're hiding.
[Barney's voice] Hey, Fred. I saw him go behind the bushes.
Thanks, Dino.
Oh, you're welcome. [laughing]
Oh, boy. Are you gullible.
Barney, I'm gonna...
Uh-oh! He's flipped.
You asked for it, Barney.
I'm gonna bowl you over with this rock.
Boy, what form. Right down the old alley.
How do you like that? He's out cold again.
Well, back to the Yellowrock pages.
"Dr. Sigmund Fraudstone.
Dr. Boulder.
Dr. Jekyllrock."
Hey, that's a good family doctor name. And he's in the neighborhood.
How's Jekyllrock sound to you, Fred?
Uh... Tell me a story, Mommy.
[Barney] Well, here we go again.
