Garfield Gets Real Page #4

---

Eli, I hope you're watching

because I need you to get to Wally.

And hurry. There's no time to waste.

Wally, come to the screen immediately.

Wally, come to the screen.

That was the most beautiful music

I ever heard.

Hey, kitty.

Wally, are you there?

Mostly.

This could be our way back.

What do you mean?

Remember your concertina?

The one you rigged

to steal Bonita's cookies?

What?

Well, make a bigger one to rescue us.

Put doors on each end

and stretch it through the screen.

Like this.

Of course. It could work.

That's brilliant.

You stole my cookies.

But I need materials.

I need people with tools.

My cookies?

Come on, guys.

We have a concertina to build.

Well, Odie. It's out of our hands now.

Oh, hey.

Nice work on the arpeggios there.

Bye.

Tires. I need four tires.

Tires.

My car.

I need all the folding doors

you can find.

Hey, Dagwood.

Hey, Shecky.

Did you give up

on that crazy plan of yours?

No, things are working out fine.

We're just a little tired.

There you go, puppy.

We've had quite an adventure

here in the real world...

...but tomorrow will be a better day.

And we'll be back home

and our strip will be back in the paper.

For once you are right, kitty-cat.

Tomorrow will be a better day...

...for us.

Look, we are both laughing together.

Too bad you can't help your strip.

Yeah, but we see you are all tied up.

We laugh in your face again.

And tomorrow we are going to be

on the comics page.

We will be so funny,

I find myself laughing already.

- Look at me laughing.

- We're laughing in your face.

You won't get away with this.

- Just watch us.

- Let us now get out of this dump.

- Yeah, let's.

- Who is the losers now, losers?

Yeah, losers.

We are laughing at you.

Losers.

Who are those guys?

Don't worry. We have a plan

with the comic characters back home.

- Knock it off, Garfield, this is serious.

- No, really, they're gonna rescue us.

Unless, of course, we die first.

Let's see what Garfield's up to.

What?

Attention. Everyone to the screen.

Everyone to the screen.

This is an emergency.

Hot. Hot.

Somebody...

Oh, no.

I'm going through the screen.

I don't care if I ever make it back.

No, you're not.

We're going to rescue them

with Wally's machine. Right, Wally?

Yeah, Wally.

But it's not quite done.

So let's finish it.

But, I haven't tested it.

I don't know if it works.

There's no time for that now.

You're the man, Wally.

Me?

Wally, you're gonna save the day.

You're gonna be a hero.

Me? A hero.

Doors.

I need two doors.

I got it.

Hi.

Ladies and gentlemen...

...I present, The Bonitanator.

We worked on it, but...

You don't expect it to work, do you?

You're about to find out.

- Move the Bonitanator into position.

- Okey-doke.

Hold it there.

Why did you name it

the Bonitanator, Walter?

Because the blade on the front

reminds me of that big...

...honking nose of yours, dear.

Now I have a job to do.

And by the way,

I did steal your cookies.

Oh, Wally.

You... You're so... So...

Forceful.

What are you doing?

It's too dangerous to send you guys

into the hotel.

If the paper you go through burns up,

there's no way back.

I'm trying to find a safer paper

out in the street.

There we go.

Anchor down the back end

of the Bonitanator.

Okay.

I need three volunteers. I'm one.

- I'm two.

- I'm three.

I'm three.

This calls for a strong back, Arlene.

Let's go, men.

- I'm fat.

- Push us through the screen.

- Hurry up.

- Take the right side.

- Got it.

- On the count of three.

One. Two.

Three.

We made it.

- Let's go, men.

- Okay.

- It's stuck.

- Step aside. This is a job for a big bear.

That's definitely not a comic door.

Look.

This way.

Prepare to be rescued.

I knew you guys would come.

That's right.

Hey, you're Billy Bear.

That's my name, don't wear it out.

You are cartoon characters.

You're darn tooting.

Hey, what's Snoopy really like?

Hurry, guys. Hurry.

- Oh, no.

- Not good. Not good at all.

Yeah, this way.

What do we do now?

Fear not gents...

...we can ride through the flames

in this trash cart.

It may be a little rusty,

but I assure you, it is fireproof.

Everybody climb in.

My bone, my bone. My bone.

Odie? Get back here.

My bone.

Here we go.

Odie.

My bone.

Odie.

Get the chandelier swinging, Odie.

We'll grab you

from the second-floor balcony.

- Let's do this.

- Heads down everyone. Here we go.

Lean right, everybody.

Lean right.

Odie, grab my hand.

Odie, you were supposed to let go

of the chandelier.

Garfield, swing to the main staircase.

We'll grab you there.

Come on, Odie,

we've got a cart to catch.

You know, this isn't working out

as planned.

Hold on, Odie.

Need a lift?

Come on.

Everybody down.

All clear.

We did it.

Oh, Wally.

Oh, my hero.

Look out comic world, here I come.

Hello, everybody.

Hey, Arlene.

Hey.

I love you, Garfield.

Don't you ever leave me again.

Boy, am I glad you don't hate me.

It's good to be back.

There's nothing to eat

in these lousy trash cans.

I'm so hungry I could cry.

Don't be such a girly-dog. Look.

That should be us.

Yeah. And then we wouldn't

be so hungry.

- It's all your fault.

- Your fault.

- No, don't say it's my fault.

- Yours.

- It is your fault. Don't start with me.

- Yours, yours.

Your fault. Yo...

Will you look at that.

Shecky finally made it big

in entertainment.

Who's gonna sing for food

on the fence now?

How does this sound?

Sheila and the Sheilettes.

Got a ring, eh? You can wear

a tight dress and sing backup for me.

We're gonna starve.

- Hit it, Eli.

- You got it, Garfield.

Party time.

Hey, all right.

Care to dance?

You guys.

Odie. Come back here with my bone.
