Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Veteran character actress Verna Felton supplies the voice of Mrs. Slaghoople, the overbearing mother of stone-age hausfrau Wilma Flintstone. Having sold her own house, Mrs. S moves in with daughter Wilma and son-in-law Fred, who complains that the event is comparable to "Grant taking Richmond" (apparently he has peered into the distant future). Hoping to get rid of his mother-in-law, Fred tries to marry her off to a wealthy Texasn named Melville J. Mushrocks--but Wilma, suspecting that Mushrocks is a phony, does her best to scuttle the romance.
