Flintboot
By Stephen Gower (Icon)

[Time: Sometime after Season 3....although highly unlikely, this could theoretically pass for a stupid season 4 episode.]
[Scene: Starts in Mainframe, at Bob's apartment...then it proceeds to Bedrock]
[Theme song: Well, officially it would be the "I come from the 'Net" yadda yadda yadda stuff...but I guess this could be just as good...

Flintboot!
Meet the Flintboots!
They're a group right outta history!
From the town of Mainframe
They've ReBooted in a strange game cube!

OK, I know it doesn't go right at the end, but what the hell!]

Bob's apartment.........

Bob(with a laugh): "So, how did you get that eye, Matrix?"
Matrix: "Well, I was first born with two regular eyes and..."
Camera pans to a clock, and some `tick-tock' music plays.  We can see hours and hours (non-ReBoot time) go by.  Camera pans back to Matrix.
Matrix: "...and that's how I got this neat little tatoo!"
AndrAIa: "Matrix, he asked you about your eye, not your tatoo..just forget about it."
AndrAIa: "Hey, I know, how about we play `Guess That Crustacian'?"
At this, everyone groans.
Dot: "But AndrAIa, you always win!  You do you expect us to know sea creatures like you do?"
Dot makes a few obscene gestures, but these will be edited out later.
Mouse: "I know, sugah!  We cheat!"
Camera pans over to Mouse, who's sitting naked AND making obscene gestures.  This will also be cleaned up for final production.
Ray: "Yeah, Mates!  Don't you think it will be fun?"
Ray playes with his goggles, and accidentally slaps them against his face really hard.  This will not be edited out.
Dot: "AARGH!  Look, normally, I would just kick Mouse out.  But, the both of you are getting on my nerves!"
Dot pics up both Ray and Mouse, now wearing clothes, and tosses them into the dumpster.
Dot: "There!  All better now!  Now, how about we all make shadow puppets?"
Hexadecimal: "You weren't thinking of doing that without me, were you?" Hexadecimal appears out of nowhere just for fun.
Hexadecimal: "I love making shadow puppets!  Oh, look at little Enzo!  Isn't it just funny how these things turned out?"
Bob: "Well, actually, it isn't that funny when you think about--"
Bob gets cut off as something cuts him off.
"Warning!  Incoming Game!  Warning!  Incoming Game!"
Bob: "Look, the games landing right on my apartment!"
Dot: "But how can you tell?  We're not even out--"
Bob: "But it is!  Glitch is speaking to me inside my head."
Dot: "Yeah, sure...."
That's the last thing said as the game lands.  Coincidently, the game doesn't go further than Bob's floor.

                        *       *       *
Bob: "OK, I think we're in the game. `Fred and Barney Go and Make a Pool.'  Some sort of pre-historic game.  Let's see what we reboot as.  ReBoot!"
Bob rambles on incoherently as he notices that Matrix is the main character, and Bob is his sidekick.
Matrix: "Relax, Bob!  It's just a game!  So, who am I anyway?"
Matrix says that and camera shifts to Bob.
Bob: "Uh, Fred Flintstone.  That would make me Barney Rubble.  And AndrAIa appears to be a more-revealing-than-usual Wilma Flintstone.  And that makes Dot Betty.  Enzo is Bam-Bam, the child of the Rubbles...and...Hexadecimal is Pebbles, your child, Matrix!"
As Bob goes along, the camera shifts from Matrix, dressed in an orange and black...cloth, then to Bob, who is wearing the same thing but brown, than to AndrAIa, who is wearing something more skimpy than usual.  After AndrAIa, it goes to Dot, who is wearing something revealing but not as skimpy as AndrAIa.  Then we see Enzo, who is holding a club and says nothing but bam-bam, and then we see Hex, who, despite being a baby, still has a high-vocabulary.  Bob turns to Dot.
Barney(Bob)[low voice]: "So Betty, u-heh-heh-heh, you wanna go inside, u-heh-heh-heh?"
Betty(DOT)[high, squeeky Boston-accented voice]:"No, Barney, I don't, judging from your tone of voice.  We already have one child as it is."
Fred(Matrix)[mutters]: "Oh Boy.."
Wilma(AndrAIa)[nagging]:"Now, Fred, let's go take little Pebbles inside."
Fred(Matrix): "Oh, but it's such a beutiful day..I want to go bowling with my buddies.  They're going to name me Grand Pubah!"
Wilma(AndrAIa): "No, Fred, if you do like I ask you I might put on something a little more loose, if you know what I mean.."
No, this DOESN'T get edited out. This type of thing is plausible in The Flintstones.
Fred(Matrix)[love-struck]: "A-hubba-hubbina-hubba..."
Wilma(AndrAIa): "Oh, and Fred?  I want you and Barney to finish that pool of yours after we're through."
Fred(Matrix): "That Rubble can finish the pool all by himself.  He doesn't need me!"
Barney(Bob): "Duh, but Fred!  You promised you'd help!"
Fred(Matrix): "I promissed nothing!  You're just making things up!  Now, finish the pool!"
Barney(Bob): "Duh, I'll tell you what I'll do.  I'll divide the pool, and finish my OWN pool!  You can finish yours!"
Fred(Matrix): "Fine!  Be that way!  I've got to bring Pebbles in and help Wilma loosen up! [to Pebbles(Hexadecimal]  Come on Pebbles!  Gootchie-gootchie-goo!  Come on!  Let's go inside deary!"
Pebbles(Hex)[having fun with this]: "Carry me, dada!"
Fred(Matrix): "Sure thing, Pebble-dear."
Matrix carries Hex in with ease and a night passes.  Lots of noises, not heard by the viewer, are heard from the Flintstone house-hold.
Matrix goes out to finish the pool when he sees Bob on the other side.
Fred(Matrix)[humming a tune]: "Du-de-dooooo.....[mutters under his breath]Barney."
Barney(Bob): "Fred....[sarcastically]oooo!  I love my new pool.  It's a shame Fred doesn't have his own finished...u-heh-heh-heh...."
Fred(Matrix): "All right, that's it!"
Matrix is about to pound Bob when they hear "Game Over"
Bob: "I guess we beat the game!"
Dot: "No, AndrAIa and I did.  We offered Grandma Dynamyte, the User some cookies and used her own dynamyte on her.  All the time you boys were fighting over a pool."
AndrAIa: "But you know, I don't ever remember Wilma or Betty ever dressing so skimpy...oh and we can't forget little Enzo's part in this; he hit Grandma Dynamite on the head and knocked her out while we stole the dynamite."
Matrix: "Well, I'm finally glad that the viewers have finally 'seen' us have sBEEEP!--ex."
AndrAIa: "Yes, well I quite enjoyed it.  Oh, Matrix?  I'm pregnant!"
Matrix: "AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Matrix runs around in circles and rips out some of his hair.

The END!!!!
OK, just so you know, I realise that neither Wilma nor Betty had skimpy outfits in the actual cartoon, but I needed to mention that for the purposes of the story.
