Garfield Page #3

[Nermal]

Yeah, he saved your life.

- Odie's a hero!

- Why? Because I wasn't ripped to shreds?

No, Odie's an imbecile

until further notice.

[Jon Gurgling]

Hey, moondust...

if I were you, I'd grab

a nice piece of carpet.

Jon doesn't let me

sleep up top. Ever.

[Sighs]

Odie... You wanna

sleep in the bed?

Okay.

Wha...

Hey, buddy. Good boy.

Who's a good boy, huh?

You want to sleep

on the bed tonight?

[Jon In High Voice]

Yes, I do. Yes, I do.

I think I'm going

to blow cat-chow chunks.

Good night, Odie.

Good night, Garfield.

Great. Wish me luck

with the nightmares.

Another day ruined.

Oh, you little suck-up. Oh!

?? [Singing]

Whoa! Whoa, baby.

No. Down.

Down, dumb dog.

What part of"no"

don't you understand?

The push off the chair?

Off! I don't want to play.

Oh! Look. What am I

supposed to say?

"Thanks for saving

my hide with Luca?"

Okay, thanks for saving

my hide with Luca. Get off!

Where was I? Right here.

I was right here.

Oh!

[Groans]

That was a cheap shot.

Hit a guy

when he's not looking? Okay.

Oh, excuse me. L-I think you

may have forgotten something.

I saw this and I thought,

pretty sure it was your...

Oh, I love to dish it out.

[Laughs]

- ?? [Continues]

- Watch out. You see, you can't touch this.

Come on.

Uh-huh.

That's right.

Don't sneak up on me, baby.

Oh, come on with that.

Get that weak stuff outta here.

Is that butt broken?

No, it's something

like this here.

Can you do this?

Uh, shouldn't those hips be in the shop?

Walk this way, please.

I'm-a walking the dog.

Well, step it up a little bit.

Something like this.

Ho, look at this.

Watch out for this thing.

It could go. Uh-huh.

You probably should've

practiced in the garage...

before you stepped up

to someone of my level.

Back up.

Come on.

Fly with me. Maybe something

a little bit more challenging.

Hey! How 'bout this?

Out the front door.

Take it outside.!

Look who's here

on the porch.

I'm walking the porch.

I'm holding a torch. I'm ready to scorch.

Uh-huh.

That's fancy footwork.

Hey! Look. Garfield's

dancing with Odie.

They're like buddies now!

What's the matter? Oh, my God!

Odie, what are you doing here?

I was doing a solo dance,

and a creepy dog comes up next to me?

Did you guys see that?

Thank you, fellas. Thank you.

Did you guys see that?

Thank you, fellas. Thank you.

Uh-oh.

Here's more trouble.

Look at the goony look

on his face.

- Come on, buddy. Come here. Come on.

- Taking him back to the vet?

- Time for our date with Liz.

- Takin'him back to the kennel, right?

Yeah? Are you putting

him up for adoption?

Hey, Garfield,

Jon's taking Odie on his date with Liz...

- and he's leaving you behind.

- I know, Nermal.

[Nermal] They're off

on an adventure and you're still here.

And your point is?

Well, that's gotta feel bad...

being left byJon

while he takes Odie out.

It's like you're not

his favorite anymore.

Hey, what do you say

we play brain surgeon?

Would you go get my power tools?

[Groans]

This is so sad.

Jon has completely

lost his mind.

Doesn't realize

how important I am to him.

I need to be so very

understanding of him...

at this difficult time.

Hey, wait up! Wait up for me!

You forgot me!

Slow down! Please slow down!

I'm right back here!

Waa... oh! I think

I pulled a hamstring.

All right. It's okay.

I'm on. I'm on. Relax.

Oh, my poor nose.

[Man On P.A.] So, if you own Marie,

please come and claim her.

[Man On P.A.] So, if you own Marie,

please come and claim her.

Thank you very much.

Now, before the show starts, go over

to the snack section on the south lawn...

and get those goodies.

We have things there

that we're sure...

[Groans]

Yeah, go on ahead. Uh...

I'll catch up with ya.

It's probably just a mild concussion...

or... or a skull fracture.

Maybe I'll get a CATscan.

A CAT scan!

[Man On P.A.]

I'd like to ask thejudges now...

if they would please

take their positions for the viewings.

Oh, watch your step there.

[Laughs]

[Applause]

Ladies and gentlemen,

welcome to the dog show.

Well, what if I

compromise a little?

How 'bout I do the rolling around

with the yarn ball thing?

And I'll purr. I'll purr like a Ferrari.

Or make that a Jaguar.

I won't climb drapes though. That's more

than you get from some dumb dog.

Oops. Dogs.

Uh-oh.

- Oh, what? You're all gonna take it personally?

- Down, boy. Sit.

- Stay!

- [Garfield] Now, I'm gonna die.

Oh, now I really

am gonna die.!

Excuse me.

Can I get through here?

- [Clamoring]

- No one under this tarp. Ah.! That's my ear.!

[Man On P.A.]

Owners, maintain control of your dogs.

People, control

those animals now.!

Music! Music, you idiot!

?? [Dance]

- Yeah, play the music.

- [Sighs]

[Garfield]

That's my bad knee. Stop it. All right.!

- Feets, don't fail me now.!

- [Barking]

[Man On P.A.] I apologize for this.

Please excuse this outburst.

- This is highly irregular.

- Odie! Odie! [Whistles]

Odie.! Odie, come on.

Come on, buddy. Come on back.

Odie.! Odie, you want a treat?

Huh? Buddy?

?? [Continues]

Okay. All right.

I need a ride.

I'm a cat in trouble.

I'm hitching a ride in your muumuu.

- Ooh!

- Come on! Let's move!

- [Barking]

- Go.! Let's move.! Dig.! Dig.! Hyah.! Hyah.!

Come on, Pinkie. Move it out.!

Oh.! Sorry. Sorry.

Move.! Move.! Move, Pinkie.!

Move, Pinkie.! Move.!

[Man On P.A.] We certainly have

a new star in the arena.

Ladies and gentlemen,

this is amazing.!

[Happy]

Talented little fella, huh?

Hyah, Pinkie! Hyah!

They're gaining on us, Pinkie!

A cat's life is at stake. Whoa.!

Thanks for the ride.

Excuse me, ma'am.

Please call 911.

[Crying]

Please.!

This is exactly

what I deserve anyway.

I promise if I survive,

I'll never compete with a dog again.

Okay.! You got me.!

But before I say good-bye...

Oh, isn't this the final irony?

Look who's here to witness this.

The mailman!

You're so stupid.

?? [Continues]

Whoo! Yeah!

Whoo. Whoo-hoo.

?? [Ends]

[Laughs]

Yes!

Odie, come here.

That's a good boy. Oh, hi.

[Man On P.A.]

Ladies and gentlemen, Happy Chapman.

[Laughs]

That is one talented dog!

[Cheering]

You know, this is exactly

the kind of dog...

that could have

a future in television.

Oh, thank you, Mr. Chapman,

but Odie's just my pet.

And that's... that's all

I really want him to be.

- You're kidding.

- No.

Okay. Well,

this is for you.

And, uh...

this is for you if you

happen to change your mind.

You just ring me up.

You give..."Hello? Hello?

I changed my mind.

I wanna be a star."

- Okay.

- Okay!

- Okay.

- Let's hear it for Odie!

[Man On P.A.] What a sensational ending

to a rather unconventional show.!

- Smile.

- Our winner today...

a fabulous dancing puppy

called Odie.!

...the cul-de-sac. Never leave the cul-de-sac.

Never leave the cul-de-sac.

N-Never leave the cul-de-sac.

Never leave the cul-de-sac.

Never leave the cul-de-sac.

Never leave the cul-de...
