1. - Hi, Odie. I'm too busy to play.
Copy !req
2. I'm making my special double-wide,
triple-cheese, meat and meatier lasagna
Copy !req
3. for Liz's birthday.
Copy !req
4. Can't have you underfoot just now, boy.
But here's a nice bone.
Copy !req
5. Okay, let's have it.
Copy !req
6. Huh?
Copy !req
7. The bone. And it'd better be meatier
than the one yesterday or else...
Copy !req
8. Tomorrow, get him to give you more of
those doggy biscuit treats I love so much.
Copy !req
9. Almost done.
Copy !req
10. In other news, a rare alignment
of cosmic forces will occur tonight.
Copy !req
11. Professor Harlow Cranfranz explains.
Copy !req
12. I know that smell.
I know that smell and I love that smell.
Copy !req
13. Yes, the Dog Star, Sirius,
otherwise known as Alpha Canis Major,
Copy !req
14. is in a unique position
with regard to the star Canopus,
Copy !req
15. and are both in unprecedented alignment
with the moon.
Copy !req
16. Now, you say this could have
a strange effect on dogs on this planet?
Copy !req
17. Only the very stupidest ones.
Copy !req
18. In fact, a dog would have to have almost
no IQ points at all to be affected.
Copy !req
19. Well, what have we here? Lasagna!
Copy !req
20. Take a good look at it, folks.
It won't be here for much longer.
Copy !req
21. Oh, no you don't!
Copy !req
22. It's lasagna. I have to eat it.
It's what I do best.
Copy !req
23. That lasagna is for Liz's birthday party.
Copy !req
24. If you touch it, I'm not feeding you
until her next birthday.
Copy !req
25. Or the one after that.
Or the one after that.
Copy !req
26. Alright, alright.
I get the message, Mr. Subtlety.
Copy !req
27. I'm leaving this here to cool overnight.
Don't. Just don't.
Copy !req
28. Hey! I have willpower
not to eat this lasagna.
Copy !req
29. No, I don't. Yes, I do.
Copy !req
30. No, I don't. Maybe just one taste...
Copy !req
31. Alright, alright.
Copy !req
32. So, there'll be one lasagna in the world
that doesn't get eaten by me.
Copy !req
33. It had to happen eventually.
Copy !req
34. Hi, boy.
Did you enjoy that nice bone I gave you?
Copy !req
35. Well, the lasagna can cool overnight.
Copy !req
36. Maybe I'll turn in early.
Copy !req
37. Amazing. I thought for sure Garfield
would devour that lasagna,
Copy !req
38. but it seems he's put it
completely out of his mind.
Copy !req
39. I will not eat that lasagna.
I will not eat that lasagna.
Copy !req
40. I will not eat that lasagna.
Why can't I convince myself?
Copy !req
41. Huh?
Copy !req
42. I don't care how much my stomach growls,
I am not gonna eat that lasagna.
Copy !req
43. - What's that?
Copy !req
44. - Odie! Did you hear anything in here?
- Uh-uh.
Copy !req
45. I can't imagine what made that—
Copy !req
46. Lasagna for ten people... gone!
Copy !req
47. And I think it's pretty obvious
who ate it.
Copy !req
48. - Garfield!
Copy !req
49. What's the big idea?
Copy !req
50. Garfield! You ate lasagna for ten people!
Copy !req
51. I did? Huh, I don't remember that.
Copy !req
52. I meant what I said, Garfield.
I'm never going to feed you again.
Copy !req
53. Good night!
Copy !req
54. But I... that is... I didn't... I...
Copy !req
55. Maybe I did.
Copy !req
56. It's come to this. Not walking in my sleep
but eating in my sleep.
Copy !req
57. Sorry I ate that lasagna,
and I didn't even know it.
Copy !req
58. I bet it was good.
Copy !req
59. Huh?
Copy !req
60. Maybe I was too rough on Garfield, saying
I was never going to feed him again.
Copy !req
61. I'll tell him he'll get food again
in a year or two.
Copy !req
62. Garfield, I was thinking that never
is a long time not to eat, so...
Copy !req
63. - Garfield!
Yaaaaa!
Copy !req
64. Garfield, how could you do this?
Copy !req
65. Garfield, how could you do this?
Copy !req
66. And don't tell me you didn't do this.
Copy !req
67. - If you didn't, who did?
- Maybe the pup?
Copy !req
68. Don't pin this on poor,
sweet, harmless Odie.
Copy !req
69. Odie couldn't do something like this!
I've had it with you, Garfield!
Copy !req
70. I hope you brought me
some doggy treat biscuits.
Copy !req
71. Well, where are they?
Copy !req
72. What? No doggy treat biscuits?
I warned you, runt.
Copy !req
73. Hey, you're not getting away
from me that easy!
Copy !req
74. When I get my paws on you,
you'll learn to take orders!
Copy !req
75. Now I've got you trapped, runt!
Copy !req
76. I was just kidding
about the doggy treat biscuits.
Copy !req
77. You can have them all.
Copy !req
78. In fact, you can have mine.
I never liked them.
Copy !req
79. I hope the TV still works.
Copy !req
80. As I have been continuously
telling everyone,
Copy !req
81. the odd alignment of the stars
could turn a dog into a savage,
Copy !req
82. out-of-control monster.
Copy !req
83. Gee. Could that have happened to Odie?
Copy !req
84. Of course, it would only happen to a dog
who was really and truly stupid.
Copy !req
85. Yeah, that would be our Odie.
Copy !req
86. Garfield, I may owe you an apology.
Let's go find Odie... quickly!
Copy !req
87. Put me down! Help!
Copy !req
88. I have a hunch I know where he is.
Copy !req
89. Yaaaaa!
Copy !req
90. - There you are, boy. Are you okay, Odie?
- I don't know.
Copy !req
91. We'd better take you to see that professor
we saw on the news.
Copy !req
92. I called the station and got his address.
He's on Century Boulevard.
Copy !req
93. There's an all-night pizza
place on Century Boulevard.
Copy !req
94. Oh, no. There's a policeman signaling
to pull me over.
Copy !req
95. What's the rush, pal?
Copy !req
96. Oh, he's really gonna believe this.
Copy !req
97. It's my dog, officer. We think he may be
turning into a huge, crazed monster.
Copy !req
98. No, honest.
A professor on TV said it was possible.
Copy !req
99. We're going to see him right now.
Copy !req
100. Roll down the window and let me
look at this monster of a dog.
Copy !req
101. That cute little puppy? A monster?
Copy !req
102. - Garfield, did you see what happened?
- Nope.
Copy !req
103. Huh?
- That's just your basic Odie.
Copy !req
104. Well, just in case, let's get him
to that professor as quickly as possible.
Copy !req
105. Sorry to wake you up, Professor,
but we were worried...
Copy !req
106. That your dog might be turning
into a monster
Copy !req
107. because of the pattern
of the moon and stars?
Copy !req
108. I don't think that's possible,
not with such a harmless little creature!
Copy !req
109. - Ohh!
Copy !req
110. Also he does appear
to be quite stupid.
Copy !req
111. We had to come to a professor
for that news flash?
Copy !req
112. - But what if it is true?
- Even if it is true, it does not matter.
Copy !req
113. The particular alignment of stars
that caused the change, it is over now,
Copy !req
114. and will not occur again
until the year 3459, on a Tuesday.
Copy !req
115. Well then, problem solved.
If it ever even was a problem.
Copy !req
116. Besides, I have to deal with the following
alignment of the moon and stars!
Copy !req
117. It may cause an eclipse
that will affect cats.
Copy !req
118. - Cats?
- Cats?
Copy !req
119. Yes, but not to worry.
Copy !req
120. If it does happen, it will only affect
a very small number of cats.
Copy !req
121. Which cats, professor?
Copy !req
122. Only the ones that consume
vast quantities of Italian food.
Copy !req
123. Hmm. I think I'll go see
if that all-night pizza place is open.
Copy !req
124. Hello.
Copy !req
125. Yoo-hoo!
Copy !req
126. The first person to invent
a remote control for vacuums
Copy !req
127. will be adored and venerated
by all of catkind.
Copy !req
128. I know it's early, Garfield,
but Liz's parents are coming
Copy !req
129. and everything needs to be perfect!
Copy !req
130. Oh, I can't greet them like this!
What impression would that make?
Copy !req
131. Ohh.
Copy !req
132. An honest one?
Copy !req
133. Liz's parents will be watching me
like a hawk and analyzing my every move.
Copy !req
134. Jon, I think a walrus threw up
on your shirt.
Copy !req
135. Odie, well-bred dogs don't beg!
You can't...
Copy !req
136. Odie! I just got through
mopping that floor!
Copy !req
137. I'll deal with it later.
Copy !req
138. Now, where is
that expensive caviar I bought?
Copy !req
139. Mmm.
Copy !req
140. Alright, listen to me, you two!
My future with Liz is at stake.
Copy !req
141. When her parents get here, I expect you
to be on your best behavior.
Copy !req
142. And to make sure that happens,
there's a reward in store for you.
Copy !req
143. Whichever of you makes the most effort
to make a good impression
Copy !req
144. will get a special treat.
Copy !req
145. Odie, go fetch the grooming brush,
Copy !req
146. I'm going to give you two a makeover
before our guests arrive.
Copy !req
147. Ha ha! No way.
I'd rather cough up a giant hairball
Copy !req
148. than share a brush
with that mangy fleabag.
Copy !req
149. I'll do my own grooming, thank you.
Copy !req
150. Have it your way, Garfield,
Copy !req
151. but Odie just scored a point
in the effort category.
Copy !req
152. - Good boy, Odie! Good boy!
Copy !req
153. What a suck-up.
Copy !req
154. I think I'll fit in a little beauty sleep
before the guests arrive.
Copy !req
155. - Yaaaaaaa!
Copy !req
156. No! My suit! Get your filthy paws off me!
Copy !req
157. Down, boy! I said get down!
Copy !req
158. What in the world is going on out here?
Copy !req
159. I'll tell you what.
That maniac dog of yours pounced on us.
Copy !req
160. Have him on a leash
if he can't behave.
Copy !req
161. Odie, bad boy! I am so sorry about that.
Copy !req
162. Please, please, come in.
We'll get all of you cleaned up inside.
Copy !req
163. That goes for you too, Odie!
Copy !req
164. Hi, Jon. Nice shirt.
Copy !req
165. Minus one for Odie. That reward is mine.
Copy !req
166. He doesn't usually jump
on guests like that.
Copy !req
167. He must have been really excited
to meet you.
Copy !req
168. Speaking of which,
you haven't been properly introduced.
Copy !req
169. Mom, Dad, this is Jon.
Jon, these are my parents.
Copy !req
170. Hi, I'm Mrs. Wilson,
but you can call me Betty.
Copy !req
171. - And I'm Mr. Wilson.
Copy !req
172. Ha ha. Um... Nice to meet you.
Copy !req
173. Ahem. I believe you're already well
acquainted with my dog, Odie.
Copy !req
174. And that's Garfield, my cat.
Copy !req
175. My, that's a fat cat!
Liz, you should put that cat on a diet!
Copy !req
176. Oh, it's a pleasure meeting you too.
Copy !req
177. You've got a nice place, here, Jon,
but this house needs a woman's touch.
Copy !req
178. I don't know about the house,
but Jon certainly does.
Copy !req
179. That being said, an extra hand
in the kitchen wouldn't hurt.
Copy !req
180. So, Jon, Liz tells us you're a cartoonist.
Copy !req
181. That's right, I—
Copy !req
182. Personally, I've always been for solid,
respectable careers.
Copy !req
183. None of that fancy-schmancy stuff.
I'm a tax auditor myself.
Copy !req
184. That would've been my second guess,
after undertaker.
Copy !req
185. - Ohh!
Copy !req
186. Bad boy, Odie!
Copy !req
187. He's usually very well-behaved.
Copy !req
188. Minus two for Odie. Reward, come to papa.
Copy !req
189. Raising pets is like raising children.
It requires a great deal of discipline.
Copy !req
190. Do you plan on having children
one day, Jon?
Copy !req
191. Dad!
Copy !req
192. Speaking of children,
Copy !req
193. I haven't introduced you
to my son yet, Jon!
Copy !req
194. Your son?
Liz didn't mention she had a brother.
Copy !req
195. Jon, this is Petey. My pride and joy.
Copy !req
196. I raised and nurtured him
ever since he was a baby.
Copy !req
197. - I can trust your pets with him, can't I?
- Oh, sure. No problem.
Copy !req
198. Because if any harm came to him,
I don't know what I'd do!
Copy !req
199. It breaks my heart
to keep him cooped up in a cage.
Copy !req
200. So she coops us up instead.
She spends her time closing windows.
Copy !req
201. And you spend it opening them.
He's always saying it's stuffy.
Copy !req
202. Isn't he the smartest,
cutest little thing?
Copy !req
203. He's the son I never had.
Copy !req
204. I would've said plump and juicy.
Copy !req
205. And he's going to be the hors d'oeuvres
I'm going to have.
Copy !req
206. - Snack time!
Go ahead, be my guest.
Copy !req
207. Try it! See what happens.
Copy !req
208. It'll be the most fun I've had in ages.
Trust me.
Copy !req
209. I went to a lot of trouble chasing you.
So humor me. Fight, struggle, beg, plead.
Copy !req
210. "Oh, please, Mr. Cat, don't eat me."
There. Is that exciting enough for you?
Copy !req
211. Oh, You're gonna have
to do better than that.
Copy !req
212. Garfield!
Copy !req
213. I'm warning you, Garfield!
Copy !req
214. If I catch you with that bird again,
forget the reward!
Copy !req
215. - And no TV for a month!
- No, stop!
Copy !req
216. I wouldn't gloat if I were you.
I may be minus one, but you're minus two.
Copy !req
217. Forget that insipid sack of feathers.
Copy !req
218. It's like trying to get an adrenaline rush
from a slice of plain white bread.
Copy !req
219. Ha ha!
Copy !req
220. Inanimate pre-sliced cold cuts
are a hundred times more exciting.
Copy !req
221. Please, please, please, Mr. Cat! Eat me!
Copy !req
222. Come on, I know you want to.
Just do it. Please?
Copy !req
223. Hey! You're supposed to beg me
not to eat you, dodo.
Copy !req
224. But I must admit, you're slightly
more tempting in sandwich form.
Copy !req
225. What's taking so long? Hurry up!
Copy !req
226. Well, if you insist.
Copy !req
227. Petey?
Copy !req
228. Oh, look, we're all out of hors d'oeuvres!
Copy !req
229. Why don't I go get us some more?
Copy !req
230. Oh, I see you've made yourself a nice...
Copy !req
231. Canary sandwich?
Copy !req
232. I'll give you one last warning, Garfield!
If anything happens to that bird,
Copy !req
233. I'll put you on bread and water for life!
Copy !req
234. I need to get as far away as possible
from that psycho bird.
Copy !req
235. Petey!
Copy !req
236. Petey, where are you?
Copy !req
237. Come to mama. It's not like him.
He never leaves my side for long.
Copy !req
238. Don't worry, Mom.
He couldn't have gone far.
Copy !req
239. Yeah, it's not like this house
is a mansion.
Copy !req
240. Maybe he went upstairs.
We can go look.
Copy !req
241. Perfect. That should keep me
out of trouble until the guests leave.
Copy !req
242. - Ohh!
Copy !req
243. Missed me?
Copy !req
244. Petey?
Copy !req
245. Garfield!
Copy !req
246. Petey, no!
Copy !req
247. - Aaah!
Copy !req
248. Petey!
Copy !req
249. I thought so. I'll be right back.
Copy !req
250. Stay where you are!
Don't come any closer!
Copy !req
251. Listen, it's a cruel,
cold world out there,
Copy !req
252. full of mean, hungry cats,
not pushovers like me.
Copy !req
253. I'll take my chances!
Copy !req
254. You'll have to fend for yourself!
Copy !req
255. And when you're sick,
no one will make chicken soup for you!
Copy !req
256. Birds don't eat chicken soup.
Copy !req
257. Oh, right. Okay.
Copy !req
258. What about Betty? She'll be devastated.
She raised and nurtured you.
Copy !req
259. Smothered me, you mean.
Copy !req
260. I've been wanting to break free
from day one.
Copy !req
261. And thanks to you, I finally did.
I'm free as a bird!
Copy !req
262. Farewell, Garfield!
Copy !req
263. No! No. Oh, no!
Copy !req
264. No. No, no!
Copy !req
265. - Petey.
- Maybe it's for the best, Mom.
Copy !req
266. How many times have you brought him
into the clinic because he banged
Copy !req
267. into a closet window?
Copy !req
268. He'll be happier out there.
Copy !req
269. I'll be honest, Arbuckle.
I didn't like you the minute I saw you.
Copy !req
270. But after what your cat just did...
Copy !req
271. - I know, it's unforgivable. It's...
- It's a miracle!
Copy !req
272. That darn bird was the bane
of my existence.
Copy !req
273. I've been trying to get rid of him
for ages, and thanks to that cat of yours,
Copy !req
274. he's gone for good!
Copy !req
275. From now on, Jon,
you're part of the family.
Copy !req
276. Wow, I don't know what to say.
Thank you, Mr...
Copy !req
277. - Bob?
- Mr. Wilson. Don't push your luck.
Copy !req
278. Mmm!
Copy !req
279. Garfield?
Copy !req
280. I might as well get it over with.
It's time to face my fate with dignity.
Copy !req
281. Beg!
Copy !req
282. Oh, merciful, merciful, Jon!
Take pity on me! Oh, please.
Copy !req
283. Garfield, where have you been
all afternoon?
Copy !req
284. Your reward is getting cold.
Copy !req
285. - My reward?
Ta-da!
Copy !req
286. You earned it, Garfield!
Copy !req
287. Thanks to you,
I'm on Mr. Wilson's good side now!
Copy !req
288. As it turns out,
Liz's father couldn't stand that canary,
Copy !req
289. and you did him a huge favor
by letting him escape.
Copy !req
290. Ah, Mr. Wilson, a man after my own heart.
Copy !req
