BARNEY:     Well, where's Aunt Bee with lunch?  She's usually here and 
gone by now.
ANDY:       She's a little late.
BARNEY:     Well, I'm hungry, Ange.
ANDY:       She'll be along in a few minutes. Relax
BARN:       Well, I happen to have this low sugar-blood content, and if 
I don't get my lunch by noon then I get a headache and I'm no good to 
anybody.
ANDY:       A few minutes one way or the other shouldn't make any 
difference.
BARN:       Well, it does to me.  I've got a clock in my stomach.
ANDY:       You must have.
BARN:       I go by that clock, too.  Tick, tick.  I know it's time for 
lunch.  Tick, tick.  I know it's time for dinner.  My mother was the 
same way.
ANDY:       I remember that about you're mother.
BARN:       She had a clock in her stomach.
ANDY:       Hey, Barn?  These clocks you and your mother had in your 
stomachs?  Did the tickin' keep your father awake at night?
BARN:       You wanna get facetious? You wanna get facetious about the 
whole thing? Is that what you want to do, get facetious?
ANDY:       No.
BARN:       Well, just don't get facetious.  That happens to be a very 
common thing: clock in the stomach.
ANDY:       I know, I know, I know.  Aunt Bee had an elephant she kept 
on the mantelpiece, and it had a clock in its stomach.  Now, don't get 
mad.  I was just kiddin'.
BARN:       I don't mind you kiddin' me about my stomach, but don't kid 
about my mother's stomach.
