Hint #1: television cartoon series

Hint #2: there are technically two correct answers, since the exchange is spoken by two different characters in the episode (and, by one of them, more than once)

Hint #3: Hanna Barbera

The Flintstones, right?

Post by **droosan** » September 1st, 2009, 2:49 pm

Yep!

From the first-season episode "The Tycoon" .. the first of many Flintstones episodes which hinged on confusion stemming from a 'lookalike' of Fred. (come to think of it .. that was the main plot of their first feature film, too!)

In this case, Fred's double is millionare 'rock-market' trader J.L. Gotrocks. When Fred is asked to substitute for the missing Gotrocks in a 'high-stakes' business meeting, he expresses concern that -- while he looks like Gotrocks -- he doesn't have his market savvy. Gotrocks' assistant tells Fred that he only ever needs to say three simple phrases: "Whose baby is that?," "What's your angle?," and "I'll buy that." Fred makes use of these phrases to successfully make it through the strategy meeting, and later in a series of telephone conversations ('mixing-up' the phrases as the telephones ring ever faster).

.. so, anyway, it's now Daniel's turn to select an animation quote.

Pretty vague, but...

"Watcha doing"

Is it from Phineas and Ferb?

Oops, not sure how I missed your message... Yep, you're right. That's Isabella's little catch phrase.

Your turn, Eddie!
