Synopsis
Dripper, a performing sealosaurus, follows Barney home from the Oceanrock Aquarium, but a pair of criminals have followed Dripper. The trained sealosaurus rescues Barney from kidnapping.
Teaser Sequence: In the Flintstones' pool, Dripper rises up from the water. Fred is in his swimming trunks telling Barney "Last one in is a pterodactyl's egg." Fred falls, hits the diving board and falls in the pool. Barney comes out in a brown diving suit saying to Fred he's ready. Dripper is bouncing on Fred saying to Barney "Help, Save me?" with Dripper barking. Barney questions how did Dripper get here and how did he find them? Fred tells Barney to tell Dripper to stop and that he's getting seasick? Barney says Fred's getting seasick, then Fred says he's getting "air-sick" as Dripper flips and spins him up in the air. Barney calls Dripper off. Dripper runs over as a mid-air Fred shouts "Help?" as he hits the water and sinks down into the pool.
