Barney as Fred's boss

I enjoy this episode for a few reasons. I think it's the only one where we see Mr. Slate's home? It was one of the very few times where there was tension between Betty & Wilma. "Ha! Funniest thing I ever heard. I'll laugh all the way home!" Wow, Wilma left the Rubbles' place in anger?!

Further, when Betty & Barney deign to visit Fred & Wilma, the music is one of a kind! We never hear that same music in any other episode. And Wilma's "Hi" to the Rubbles was unique. Fred orders Barney out of his house and Wilma says, "Fred, I'm proud of you!" Wilma didn't back Fred up n many disputes!

There are probably other aspects that I've forgotten, that make this one a bit different.

And the episode where they meet Sherman in the coin-a-matic diner, and go to Rock Vegas, that one has its idiosyncrasies, as well.


Marriage is between one man and one woman, to the exclusion of all others.
