Dialogue edit
- Wilma: [sees Betty sitting alone at a table] Hi Betty. [Betty says nothing] Did I tell you that's a really pretty dress?
- Betty: [quietly] Thank you.
- Wilma: [sits down next to Betty] Betty, you aren't still mad at me, are you?
- Betty: Mad? Just because you pretended to be poor? And I took you in and I felt sorry for you? [stands up] Why would that make me mad? [walks away]
- Gazoo: I come from a planet too far for you to fathom and a civilization too advanced for you to comprehend.
- Barney: Wait a minute, Fred. I bet, we get wishes!
- Gazoo: Pardon?
- Barney: Yeah. We let you out of the fancy bottle and now we get wishes, right?
- Fred: Yeah, Barney's right. Let's get this started. What do we have to rub?
- Gazoo: Nahan, I'm not some sort of friendly cartoon Genie. And that is not a bottle, it is a spacecraft. I'm of a highly evolved alien species. I don't do funny voices, I don't sing catchy songs and I do not possess a magic carpet for your big bloated behinds to float upon! I'm here to observe your species mating rituals. Ok, Dum-Dums?
- Chip: Ladies and gentlemen! Ladies and gentlemen, I regret to inform you that there is a criminal in our midst... [Everybody gasps] But, before I expose him into the public. I'd like to give him a chance to step forward that admit his wrong doing only to take his first tiny step towards absolution.
- Towel Confessor: [sobs] I stole all the towels in my room!
- Chip: Well, that is illegal! But, still...
- Underwear Confessor: I'm wearing someone else's underwear! [Everybody gasps and groans]
- Chip: No! I was talking about a...
- Dinosaur Confessor: I'm systematically poisoning the dinosaurs water supply! In a matter of decades, their entire species will be extinct! [Everybody laughs]
- Chip Rockefeller: All right! This is obviously going nowhere. No, I was talking about a necklace. A very valuable necklace has been stolen from our hotel safe. A necklace belonging to my dear... dear friend, Wilma Slaghoople.
- Wilma: My pearls?
- Betty: Wilma!
- Fred: All right, who did it? So, help me. If you don't step forward right now, I'll personally punch you in the...
- Chip: I don't think violence would be necessary, Flintstone. Because, I know exactly, who stole Wilma's pearls... A desperate man drowning and gambling debts.
- Fred: Low-life!
- Dinosaur Confessor: Hey! Doesn't anybody care about this whole dinosaurs becoming extinct thing?
- Everybody: NO! [Dinosaur Confessor walks away]
- Barney: [defending Fred to everyone after he's been accused of robbery] Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute! You're all making a big mistake. Fred couldn't have stolen that necklace. It was locked up in a safe... Fred can't even remember the combination to his bowling locker. Look, he's gotta write it down on his hand, see? [lifts Fred's hand up in the air where the combination is written]
- Fred: [jerks away] Aw, great. Now, everybody's seen it.
- Barney: Huh. Crack a safe? He couldn't even crack his knuckles without my help. [laughs]
- Chip: Thank you, Mr. Rubble, for confessing to being Mr. Flintstone's accomplice.
- Barney: You're welcome. [pauses and realizes] What?
- Chip: Take them both away!
- [the officers takes Fred and Barney to jail, Everybody cheers]
