Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Both Fred and his household pet Dino go into the hospital for X-rays. The results indicate that Fred is fine, and that Dino has "Dinopeptitis", which is harmless to dinosaurs but deadly to humans. Inevitably, the X-rays are mixed up, and the doctor informs Wilma that her husband is in very precarious health. It turns out that the only cure for Dinopeptitis is for Fred to stay awake for 72 hours--and NOT to be told the reason he can't go to bed!
