[theme music starts]

[peaceful harp music playing]

[Garfield sighs]

Mmm. Those were tasty cookies.

But I definitely could use another snack... or two.

Problem is, I'd have to get up and go to the kitchen.

-[Odie panting] -[rubber squeaking]

-[Garfield] Odie! -[grunts]

Fetch me something to eat!

-[toy squeaks] -Thanks but no thanks.

Odie, I don't eat squeaky rubber bones.

Nobody does for that matter.

[chomping]

[Garfield] Except for you, of course.

[growls]

[barks and mumbles]

[sighs] Should I get up and go to the kitchen?

Tough decision.

So far it's been a perfect day.

Woke up at ten, had breakfast, took a little nap,

had lunch, watched some TV

-took a little nap, watched... -[rumbling]

[plates shaking]

[Garfield] Oh no!

It's the end of the world and I'm still hungry!

[gasps]

-What the--? -[dramatic music playing]

-[screaming] -[electricity crackles]

[screaming]

[gasp in unison] What?

What was that?

Did that really happen?

Yeah, everything seems to be alright.

Probably some kind of hallucination due to extreme hunger.

Let's grab something to eat.

[slurping]

[screams]

[purring and slurping]

Okay, that's weird.

[huffs]

[Odie barking]

[panting]

[slurping]

[meows angrily]

[Odie whimpering]

[Arlene] Hi, Garfield!

I came for Jon's check-up.

Oh sure, he's right over there.

What?

I came for Jon's check-up. Remember?

You called me yesterday and asked me to come take a look at him.

[gasps] What is going on around here?

-[Jon purring] -Are you alright, Garfield?

You look tense.

Have you been working late on your drawings again?

[gasps] My drawings? What drawings?

Okay, Jon, let's take a look at you.

[sighs] You seem to be slightly overweight.

I'll probably have to put you on a low...

-[hissing] -...calorie diet.

[Arlene] What about dining out tonight, Garfield?

There's a new Siamese restaurant downtown. Supposed to be first class.

I managed to book us a table.

[Garfield] Restaurant?

Yeah, why not. That's a... good idea.

I have to get out of here!

[panting]

[gasps]

[sighs]

Okay. Much better. Much, much better.

I'm fully awake now.

It was all a bad dream. Just a bad, bad, very weird dream.

[male cat] Hi, Garfield!

Don't forget poker night on Friday! [laughs]

-[gasps] -[Harry] Yo, Garfield, my man.

Where's your trash? It's collection day.

[babbles]

[tense music playing]

[Garfield gasps]

[nervous giggle]

[Garfield gasps]

[cats laughing]

What?

[barking]

[screaming]

[birds chirping]

[chattering]

-[gasps] -Arrivederci!

I don't believe it. I don't believe it!

Where am I?

What is this crazy world where cats act like humans

and humans act like cats?

-[panting] -Creepy.

Maybe if I go back inside, everything will be back to normal.

Oh, there you are.

[cuckoo clock sound]

I'm finished with Jon. He is ten pounds overweight.

He will need to follow a diet of boiled rice for two weeks.

[phone rings]

Why are you staring at me like that?

[phone rings]

-Aren't you going to answer your phone? -[phone rings]

[cuckoo clock sounds]

There are days where I really don't understand you, Garfield.

-[phone rings] -Hello?

Yes, just a second.

For you! It's your publisher!

[gasps]

Yes?

[publisher] I'm still waiting for your last drawings!

If they're not on my desk tomorrow at 4:00 p.m.,

I'm tearing up your contract and you can find another publisher!

My contract?

Does this mean I have to work in order to survive?

Yes dear, like everyone else.

Oh, you spend too much time daydreaming, Garfield.

Snap out of it. Attacat.

Pick me up at eight.

[gasps in surprise]

Oh yeah, the... Siamese restaurant.

What is this horrible world where cats have to work?

[TV] There's no pulse,

Doctor Catgliari!

-[doctor] Don't panic, nurse, I... -[remote clicks]

Sorry guys. As much as I like soap operas,

I have to find out what this crazy world is all about.

[presenter] Parallel universes. Do they really exist?

Or does one only find them in science-fiction novels?

-[Garfield] Boy, you... -[Odie whines]

Parallel universes?

Controversial physicist, Dr. Angus McLoon is here with us

to answer that question.

[speaking with strong accent] Well, Shirley,

theoretically, parallel universes could exist.

They could probably be accessed though wormholes.

I have just invented a device that could prove their existence.

That's it!

I'm in a parallel universe!

I traveled through a wormhole and ended up in a parallel universe,

which explains the identical Garfield

who was going the other way,

probably to my universe.

That's fine,

but how did I end up here in the first place!

What a terrible mishap!

What did I do? What did I do? Poor Garfield!

[screams]

Hey!

You're the guy I just saw on TV!

[stuttering] Garfield! You're alive!

Is that you?

Yeah, I guess.

At least I hope so.

If I weren't me anymore, I'd really miss myself.

Sometimes if I say "I'm talking to me," I mean me and my, well...

Anyway, you're the parallel universe guy, right?

Yes, but you already know that since I'm your best friend.

You're my best friend?

[gasps] There's no accounting for taste.

Anyway, what if I told you I'm not the Garfield you know

and that I come from a parallel universe where humans wait on cats?

[gasps] A parallel universe?

[laughs]

My invention, it worked!

It worked! I accessed a parallel universe!

I'm a genius, Garfield! A genius!

Okay, okay doc. Settle down.

My last meal is about to make a comeback.

After you disappeared, I mean after the other you disappeared,

I had to make sure whether or not you, I mean the other you,

were really gone. Hence my presence in this house!

Very thoughtful of you, doc.

Now how about telling me how I ended up here?

Fair enough. Let's go to my lab.

[upbeat music playing]

This is my latest invention... the WHO.

The what?

The WHO!

The Wormhole Opener.

This morning I invited you, I mean the other you,

over to my lab to show it to... you.

This apparatus can open wormholes and detect parallel universes!

Nifty! How does it work?

[laughs] It's a very complex operation.

-[sighs] -You need to throw the switches

and hit the buttons in the exact sequence.

And I'm the only one who knows it.

The odds of anyone else finding the sequence are one in a million.

Oh yeah? A month's supply of lasagna that I beat the odds.

[laughs] Be my guest.

[buttons dinging]

[machine whirrs]

[gasps]

I don't believe it! You did it!

When lasagna is at stake, I always win.

[objects in room rattle]

[McLoon] Get away from the sphere! Now!

-[McLoon] Oh, no! -[Garfield screaming]

[Garfield screaming]

[screaming continues]

Your world stinks.

Cats are slaves. They have jobs!

They have to wait on humans. It's disgusting!

I'm really happy to go home!

And your world stinks, too.

Cats do nothing all day but eat, sleep and watch TV.

It's so boring! I can't wait to go home!

Hey, you have drawings to deliver tomorrow!

Got it!

And you have to pick up Arlene at eight! You're dining out!

What did you say?

Home, sweet home.

[peaceful music playing]

-[Odie barking] -Hi Odie, good to see you.

[grunts]

Turn around!

-Don't thank me. -[slurps]

I said: "Don't thank me."

Some things never change.

[Jon] Garfield, your lasagna's ready.

Fresh out of the oven!

-And that's all right with me. -[Odie panting]

[sighs] It's so good to work again.

That other world where cats just sit around doing nothing was dreadful!

How dare you stand me up!

Do you know how hard it is to get a table in that restaurant?

There's a six month waiting list!

Restaurant? What restaurant?

[huffs] Don't play games with me, Garfield! I am not in the mood!

Ah, yes of course!

I can explain everything. Remember Doc McLoon?

Well, he invented a device called the WHO,

The Wormhole Opener.

I was accidentally sucked into it and wound up in a parallel world

identical to our world except cats weren't working!

Do you really expect me to believe that ridiculous story?

Well, the wormhole part at least!

[Arlene huffs] You're not going to get away with this, Garfield!

And that's a promise!

You know what? Maybe that other world wasn't so bad after all.

[snickers]
