- Wilma Flintstone: Would you like some coffee while we watch television, Betty?
- Betty Rubble: The coffee sounds wonderful, Wilma, but, well, what do you say we don't watch TV tonight? I mean, can't we spend a quiet evening just talking?
- Wilma Flintstone: That's a wonderful idea. I read somewhere that people today are losing the art of conversation. Okay, what'll we talk about?
- Betty Rubble: Oh, lots of things. Uuuh, let's see. Have you, um, been to any good sales lately?
- Wilma Flintstone: Nope.
- Betty Rubble: Seen any good plays lately?
- Wilma Flintstone: Nope.
- Betty Rubble: Read any good books?
- Wilma Flintstone: Nope.
- Betty Rubble: Wilma?
- Wilma Flintstone: Yeah?
- Betty Rubble: I'll race you to the TV set.
- Fred Flintstone: Come on, Barney.
- Barney Rubble: See you later, Betty.
- Betty Rubble: Bye, Barney.
- Fred Flintstone: Yeah, Wilma. I'm going out, too.
- Wilma Flintstone: Okay, Fred, but you're taking the baby.
- Fred Flintstone: Huh? Oh, no, I'm not.
- Wilma Flintstone: Oh, yes, you are.
- Fred Flintstone: Oh, no, I'm not.
- Wilma Flintstone: Oh, yes, you are.
- Fred Flintstone: Oh, no, I'm not.
- Wilma Flintstone: Oh, yes, you are.
- Fred Flintstone: Oh, no...
- [Barney covers Fred's mouth]
- Barney Rubble: You win, you win, Wilma. We are.
- Fred Flintstone: I'm filling out the entry blank so Pebbles can get in that beauty contest.
- Barney Rubble: But, Fred, I thought Wilma was dead set against it.
- Fred Flintstone: Barney, don't you know by now...
- [stops, looks around, and whispers]
- Fred Flintstone: That I'm the boss in this house?
- Barney Rubble: But, Boss, what's gonna happen when Wilma finds out?
- Fred Flintstone: Uh, let me worry about that.
- Fred Flintstone: [while filling out an entry blank] ''Color of entrant's hair.'' Brown. ''Color of entrant's eyes.''
- [chuckles]
- Fred Flintstone: Same as mine.
- Barney Rubble: Bloodshot.
- Fred Flintstone: You know, Barn, if I live to be 100, I'll never understand women. No matter what you expect them to do, they always do the opposite.
- Barney Rubble: Yeah, I guess that's why they call them the opposite sex.
- Fred Flintstone: I am through pussyfooting around. I'm going in there and I'm gonna tell Wilma I'm going out and I'm taking the baby.
- Barney Rubble: That's telling her, Fred.
- Fred Flintstone: Oh, she'll give me an argument, all right. She'll say, "Oh, no, you're not". And I'll say, "Oh, yes, I am". And she'll say, "Oh, no, you're not". And I'll say, "Oh, yes, I am". And she'll say, "Oh, no, you're..."
- Barney Rubble: Hold it, hold it, Fred. Why don't you quit now while you're ahead?
