(DINO BARKING)
ALL: Dino!
I'm telling you Pebbles that flea bag is out of control.
He broke my bowling trophy.
He smashed my dishes.
He dug up our yard.
He got into my briefcase and chewed up all my research.
We all love Dino, but your father's right,
he needs to learn to behave.
Aw, he will. He'll behave, I promise.
From this point on you have to be good, you understand?
-(MEOWS) -(BARKING)
Dino no...
(ALL YELLING)
Uh, I love you, Daddy.
Pebbles, Dino had better shape up or else.
Okay, Dino, let's try it again, sit.
Shake.
Roll over.
How about this? Dino go crazy...
(BARKING)
Well, he knows one command.
Bamm-Bamm, this is serious.
If we don't figure out a way to get Dino to behave, he's in big trouble.
Slab come. Sit, good boy.
Hey, it's our neighbor, Mr. Brockrock, and his pet Slab.
Slab fetch the mail.
-(BARKS) -Sort it.
And recycle the junk mail.
Wow. How did he get Slab to behave like that?
Mr. Brockrock we were just wondering
how you managed to get Slab to be so well-trained.
Uh, Flintstone, well, if you must know
Slab was out of control so I took him to the dino whisperer.
Dino whisperer? Who's that?
You mean you haven't heard of Travis Archipelagos?
He's only the best trainer in all of Bedrock.
A pet trainer, of course.
Maybe he can help Dino calm down.
(BARKING)
Slab brochure.
If anyone can train Dino, it's him.
I cannot train Dino.
But I can liberate him.
Uh, what's the difference?
Well, you see, training is bending something to another's will.
I will show your pet that by obeying our commands
they're actually obeying their own heart.
Uh, so, how do you know if it works?
(ROARING)
Look out. That dinosaur is coming right at us. We gotta move.
Why? We are in no danger,
because you are not angry at us, Mr. Dinosaur.
You are really angry at yourself.
(SOBBING)
That's right, let it all out.
You're right. Oh, you saw right through me.
Now, go back to your pen,
and we will pick this up at our 4:30 session.
Dr. Archipelagos, we so need your help.
My pet, Dino, needs someone to train him to act more normal.
I'm sure you're exaggerating.
Dino seems like a calm, well-adjusted...
(BARKING)
Although, I can see the basis of your concerns.
All right, I will accept Dino into the program.
-BOTH: Yeah! -We will make him a better pet.
Dino fetch.
(LAUGHING) That was my favorite stick.
-Dino sit. -(BARKING)
(SIGHS)
Dino, whatever you do,
do not attack the kitty, understand?
(GROANS)
Miss Flintstone, your pet is a very strong personality.
I'm afraid that none of my conventional therapies have worked.
But, Dr. Archipelagos, if we don't find a way to train Dino
my dad might send him away.
Isn't there something you haven't tried?
Well, there is my patented dino hypnosis.
It works, but I warn you
the effects will be dramatic.
-Whatever it takes. -Dino...
I'm wondering if you could listen
to the sound of my voice, just for a minute.
Listen
and let yourself follow my voice
to a safe, happy place.
That's it, good boy.
Now, let us talk about your behavior.
All right, Pebbles, we're all here.
Now, what do you want to show us?
May we present to you
the new and improved, Dino!
(BARKING)
Dino is that really you?
-It sure is. -Oh, yeah.
And he can do all sorts of cool tricks.
Dino sit.
Roll over.
Sight of hand.
-Oh, how about that, huh. -He's amazing.
Pebbles, honey, this is great.
Dino is so well-behaved.
Good boy, Dino.
Thanks for the demonstration, Dino.
You can go now.
Hey, I knew that mutt could never learn to...
Uh, oh... Uh, never mind.
Well, would you look at that.
Maybe we should send Fred to the pet trainer next.
-(ALL LAUGH) -(FRED GRUMBLES)
Hmm...
Hey, Pebbles, want to go hang with me at the Crags?
I hear there's a new rockymon there we can catch.
Bamm-Bamm rockymon is just a game you made up
where you throw rocks at different rocks.
-That's how they do battle. -Well, you have to do it on your own.
It's been a week and Dino still isn't... Acting normal.
-I'm starting to get worried. -I'm sure you're overreacting.
He only seems weird because he's so well-behaved now.
Dino come here, boy.
You wanna play a little fetch? Go get it, Dino.
See, and watch this.
Dino, do you want a delicious bronto bone?
So, he's burying a bone, that's normal Dino behavior.
(PLAYING MOURNFUL MUSIC)
That is a little weird. Dignified but weird.
Okay, maybe we should try something he normally hates.
Hey, Dino, we're taking you to the vet today. Ready to go?
Hah, see, same old cowardly Dino.
I just gave Dino all his vaccinations and two full check-ups.
Here is my bill.
Okay, so, Dino isn't Dino anymore. What do we do?
We're going back to Archipelagos.
I need my Dino back.
Change Dino back?
I'm afraid the hypno therapy process is permanent.
Permanent! Why didn't you say that before?
Because I didn't think you'd ever want him back the way he was.
I'm sorry, Miss Flintstone,
I'm afraid there is nothing I can do.
-What? No. -Hold on, Pebbles.
There's one more thing we haven't tried.
Dino...
-Look who's back. -(MEOWS)
It's happening. He's cracking.
He's turning back into...
A brain-washed pet again. It didn't work.
I can't believe it, the old Dino really is gone.
Oh, Dino, I'm so sorry.
Um, Bamm-Bamm,
can I ask you where you got that saber-tooth kitten?
Oh, I found him in the Crags,
in a saber-tooth cat lair.
Oh, dear, and where was the saber-tooth's mother?
Kittens have mothers?
(SCREAMING)
Dr. Archipelagos, can't you do your hypno pet thing?
I'm a dino whisperer, this is a cat.
A big terrifying cat that will eat us.
Wait, Dino, he can defend us.
Of course, he is hypnotized
to be a loyal defender from threats.
Dino protect us, now.
-(BARKING) -(GROWLS)
Pebbles look.
Dino, he's acting like a coward.
-Our Dino is back. -Yes, good Dino.
Bad Dino, stop, I command you.
Sorry?
My compound.
My beautiful, uninsured compound.
He did it! Dino's cowardice saved us.
Dino come here, boy.
Oh, I'm so sorry, boy.
I'll never let anyone change who you are again.
Dr. Archipelagos
thanks for trying, but
I think we're gonna keep Dino the way he is.
How much do we owe you?
Tell you what, it is free
if you promise to never come back.
(CRYING)
Dino, I'm so glad you're back to normal,
but can you please try to be calm around Dad?
I don't want to lose you again.
FRED: Pebbles is that you, honey?
-Dino no! -(CRASHING)
Pebbles get this slobber factory off of me.
(CHUCKLING) I can't stay mad at him.
Oh, Dad, does that mean we don't have to get rid of him?
Who Dino? Of course not.
He's part of the family.
-Dino! -(WHIMPERING)
And he makes me look better.
