After Fred thinks he's been singled out for not receiving his annual raise, he mails his boss, Mr. Slate, a virulent letter. But then Slate visits the Flintstone residence to personally apologize for the inadvertent error and announces to Wilma that Fred is, indeed, getting his raise. Wilma, as usual, comes to her husband's aid and very narrowly prevents what surely would have been the end of Fred's career in the gravel pit. Herb Vigran guest-stars as the policeman.

After Fred's old friend Sherman extends an invitation to visit his hotel/casino, the Flintstones and the Rubbles head off to Rock Vegas. But before they even get the chance to check in, Fred has already gambled all of the foursome's money away. But Sherman invites them to stay on at the hotel by working off their charges.

Barney is a contestant on a TV game show, The Prize is Priced (a takeoff on The Price is Right). He wins a houseboat (winning bid: "Two cents"), and everyone goes on a disastrous cruise where a sea serpent takes the roast and pulls the boat way off shore; the boat drifts off, hits a rock, and finally sinks.
