• Barney Rubble : [about working on the shack]  Boy, I'm enjoying this. I'm glad the boss let me take a few days off.

  Fred Flintstone : My boss gave me a week's leave of absence, but, uh, I got to return the favor.

  Barney Rubble : How, Fred?

  Fred Flintstone : Well, if his mother-in-law comes to town, she moves in here with my mother-in-law.

• Barney Rubble : So, the old iron fist caught you right in the kisser, huh, Fred?

  Fred Flintstone : Yeah, and I went down for the count. I never thought Wilma would sneak my mother-in-law in the house while I wasn't looking.

  Barney Rubble : Cheer up, Fred. It could be worse.

  Fred Flintstone : Yeah? How?

  Barney Rubble : Well, suppose that, uh... Imagine if, uh... That is, uh... What if, uh... Boy, that Wilma sure is sneaky.

• Barney Rubble : Fred, are you sure your mother-in-law's going to go for this idea?

  Fred Flintstone : Why not? She'll be close to Wilma, but she'll have her own little castle.

  Barney Rubble : Oh, boy. Calling this dump a castle is like calling your mother-in-law Miss America.
