As a result of his bravery, Fred is hailed as a hero throughout Bedrock, which leads to a series of increasingly ridiculous scenarios. He's showered with gifts, invited to fancy parties, and even given the keys to the city. All of this newfound fame goes to his head, causing him to neglect his family and friends.
Meanwhile, Barney is feeling left out and tries to become a hero himself, only to fail miserably at every turn. He's determined to prove himself and soon becomes jealous of Fred's success.
