[Garfield struggling]

I found an old empty TV set in the vacant lot down the street.

It's heavy... but this'll be worth it.

[struggling]

-[sighs] -[Jon] Oh, there you are.

I'm about to leave for my trip, Garfield.

Bring me something.

Now, I'm counting on you to be nice

to Odie while I'm gone.

You can take care of yourself but if anything happens to Odie...

I know, I know. No lasagna until century after next.

Well, you know.

See you in a couple of days.

It's okay. I won't annoy Odie...

too much. [laughs]

[muttering]

[humming]

Good afternoon. I'm Walter Turkeybaster with the news for puppy dogs.

-Here are the headlines. -Huh?

Major scientific breakthrough in flea baths.

City to repaint all fire hydrants.

And new low prices on cute little rubber squeaky toys.

[gasps]

-[panting] -You dropped your bone.

Thank you.

-Wait! We have breaking news! -[Odie grunts]

This city has just passed a law banning all puppy dogs.

[groans]

The mayor has ordered that all puppies be arrested and locked up in a small cage

where they will be fed only raisins.

[Odie muttering]

Quick, Odie! You have to hide!

[Garfield] They're coming for you!

[Odie moaning]

No, no, no! That won't work! They'll find you! [laughs]

-[groaning] -All right, puppy dog!

We know you're in there!

[Garfield] This is the police!

Come out with your paws up!

[barking]

[Odie howling]

[Garfield laughing]

[Odie barking, panting]

[laughs] This is too good...

[laughing] this is great!

[whimpering]

Hi, puppy dog.

[yowls]

What's wrong, little puppy? I won't hurt you.

[gasps]

I didn't know puppy dogs could climb trees.

[gasps]

-[Odie screaming] -[crashes]

Oh, poor little puppy dog.

I hope you didn't hurt yourself. My mommy will see if you're all right.

She used to be a nurse.

[laughing]

[panting] Ouch.

Garfield, that was a mean and crummy thing to do.

You're right, Squeak.

[laughs] But it was so funny.

Oh, come on, Squeak.

Odie will be fine. He'll be wandering back in a little while.

And then I'll do it to him again! [laughs]

I'm so bad!

There's nothing wrong with this puppy, Nathan dear. He's fine.

Can we feed him, Mommy?

Well, I suppose. That is, if he's hungry.

Yeah, yeah, yeah!

Get those Peruvian sardines out of the refrigerator, dear.

[Odie grunts]

What's wrong, little puppy?

Puppy, you act like you expect someone to swoop in and take them away from you.

Yeah, yeah.

[yelps, gasps]

[Odie moans]

[Odie whines]

They're all yours. You can eat them all yourself.

[gasps] Can I?

Hmm, when is Odie coming back? I have more tricks planned.

He only went across the street and, hey...

that kid's part of the new family that moved in here last week.

-[Nathan] Go, boy! Fetch the stick! -[barking]

[Garfield] He's throwing the stick so Odie can fetch it for him.

What's the point of that?

When I throw the stick, I make sure it and Odie don't come back for a long time.

Okay, he'll be back.

[laughs] He'll be back.

Mom! The puppy and I get along great.

Can I keep him? Can I?

I don't know.

He may belong to someone.

Puppy, do you belong to someone?

[grunts]

Well, Nathan... you did do very well on your latest science project.

I guess you deserve a reward.

-Yay! -[barks]

We need to give you a name, puppy.

This is a book of doggie names. How about Rover?

[grunts]

-Fido? -[grunts]

-Lassie? -[growls]

Oh, that's right. You're a boy dog. How about Fluffy?

Yuck.

Boy, here's a real dumb name.

Can you believe that someone would actually name a dog Odie?

[gasps]

[sighs] All Jon left me to eat while he's gone is this stuff.

Look at these ingredients! No pasta.

No ricotta cheese. No marinara sauce.

And they call this cat food?

I'm going to go use Jon's computer while he's gone. Any sign of the pup?

Odie will be back.

He'll be back.

Why isn't Odie back?

I'll have to bring him back.

[Odie muttering]

You like this, don't you?

-We're gonna get you some new doggie toys, -[Odie grunts]

-and for dinner, lasagna. -[Odie barks]

Lasagna?

I'm eating canned nothing and he's getting lasagna?

[Mom] Nathan!

That's Mom! I'll be right back.

Odie, quick! Here's your chance.

Sneak out the window with me and I'll get you home.

[grunts]

You don't want to come home?

[muttering]

-This is your home now? -[Odie grunts]

See ya, pup.

Bye!

[sighs]

While you're busy, Mom,

may I work on my new science project?

That's a good idea.

Stupid dog.

Imagine picking luxury and lasagna over being tormented by me.

[Odie sighs, whining]

Well, I won't miss him.

In fact, it'll be nice having the house as a puppy-free zone.

I don't care if he ever comes back.

[whining]

[Nathan] Puppy! You're gonna help me with my new science experiment.

[barking]

[panting]

[muttering]

[yelps]

[electricity buzzing]

This is my lab, puppy.

[yelps]

This is where I am going to transform you into a cockroach!

[laughs maniacally]

[grunts]

[sighs]

Hi, Garfield. I was just placing a bid on a piece of cheddar...

and I was looking at some of the videos Jon's taken of you around the house.

-So... Odie isn't coming back? -No. I can't understand why.

Here. I'll show you why.

-[Odie muttering] -[Garfield] Excuse me.

-[Odie screams] -[crash]

Twenty-seven feet. A new record.

[Odie slurping]

Don't slurp! Don't slurp! I'm asking you nicely, don't slurp!

All right... you're asking for it.

Do not open 'til Christmas. [laughs]

[sniggers]

[Odie howls]

[Odie screams]

[Odie yelps]

-Now do you see why? -I guess.

What difference does it make?

He's living the good life across the street.

[muttering]

-[Odie howls] -[Nathan] It's no use.

You can't get away!

You'll be a cockroach in no time! [laughs maniacally]

[howling]

Woah, he sounds upset.

Maybe they're out of his favorite mustard.

[barking]

-[howling] -[Garfield gasps]

[Garfield gasps]

He doesn't sound like he's having a great time.

No, he doesn't. [gasps]

Wait for me!

[Garfield panting]

-[Odie struggling] -[electricity buzzing]

[laughing maniacally]

[laughs] In one minute, you'll be a cockroach.

[machine beeping]

[Odie screaming]

The world needs my invention!

Everyone will want to turn their dog into a cockroach!

Woah, hurry! Here's what I need you to do. Okay... [whispers]

-[doorbell rings] -Why does someone always interrupt you

just when you're about to turn your dog into a cockroach?

[sighs]

Now, where was I? Oh, yes, turning you into a cockroach!

-I was about to-- -[alarm beeping]

Where did he go? Where did my cockroach-to-be disappear to?

-[Odie whimpering] -[gasps]

[laughing maniacally]

-[Garfield gasps] -[Nathan] Stop! What are you doing?

No!

Sorry, fella. I need my friend back.

I've been kinda rotten to him lately.

-No! You can't do this to me! -[electricity buzzes]

This was my invention! Mine! This is only supposed to be used on dogs!

And my math teacher!

-[Garfield purring] -[Odie muttering]

-[Squeak] We made it! -[Garfield laughs]

[muttering]

What? You heard me say I've been kinda rotten to my friend lately?

[grunts in approval]

Well, I didn't mean that. I just... What I was... Well it's...

[Squeak] We have breaking news!

Odie the pup is home

and Garfield won't do anything mean to him for at least two weeks.

-[Odie] Huh? -[Garfield sighs]

-Make it a week and you got a deal, pal. -[barking]
