[snoring] [clock ringing]

[upbeat music]

[joyful music]

[yawning]

Usually, I eat and sleep all day,

but today, I think I'll sleep and eat.

Just for a change.

But what if it's Monday?

Monday, the worst day of the week.

Monday, the day horrible things happen.

Monday... [shuddering]

You get the concept?

I don't like Mondays.

Please don't let it be Monday.

Please don't let it be Monday.

Not Monday. All right!

[happy music]

Life could not better be!

I'm healthy.

[laughing]

The refrigerator is filled with all my favorite food!

And best of all, it's not Monday.

I hope it'll be not Monday all year!

So...

What shall I do to celebrate it not being Monday?

I think I'll make myself two small sandwiches.

On this show,

these are considered small sandwiches.

Yes, I am the luckiest cat... [swallowing]

in the world!

Hey, Laughing Boy, what's with the long face?

The sun is shining, the sandwiches are delicious.

And best of all, it's not Monday.

I have nothing to smile about.

The world is rotten.

Everything stinks.

Hey, you have a nice day, too.

Well, as I was saying,

I am the luckiest cat in the world.

[laughing]

[dropping sound]

[pinching his nose] The people who make rakes

should recall them all to the factory.

Those things are dangerous.

Now to watch my favorite TV show:

"The Wrong and the Tasteless."

"The Wrong and the Tasteless" will not be seen today,

so we may bring you the nine-hour award-winning documentary

"Your Friend, the Raisin."

What?

You stupid television!

I want to see my show! Put it on!

Put it on!

Hey, I never noticed this warning label before.

"Caution: do not pound on TV or it may explode."

[explosion] [screaming]

Okay, so maybe it isn't the greatest day.

Hi, Garfield.

You don't look so happy.

That might be because I'm not so happy.

But I was.

Things were so perfect.

Hmmm...

You didn't by any chance see a black cat go by?

Yeah, a little while ago!

A real sad guy who looked kind of like this.

Uh-huh... Jonah.

Oh, Jonah?

He's a jinx, that guy.

Once he crosses your path, it's bad luck forever,

and there's nothing you can do about it!

In fact, I shouldn't even be around you.

Hey, there's no such thing as jinxes and bad luck.

Hey, look, I'm standing right here and nothing around.

What could happen to me?

I don't know but something will.

What? Do you think a meteor is just going to drop out of the sky on me?

[dropping sound]

[Garfield] That could've happened... to anybody.

Listen, Garfield.

I think it'd be safer to be a little farther away from you.

How far?

I hear Argentina is lovely this time of year.

-[bang] -Help!

Get me away from this guy! Somebody save me !

I wish I could run away from me like that.

[sigh] I'm having a lot of bad luck.

What I need is a good luck charm.

I think there's one in the basement.

Jon left some sort of good luck charm down here,

like a four-leaf clover or a rabbit's foot.

Ah, here's one!

His old horseshoe!

"To get the maximum luck from a lucky horseshoe,

kiss it and throw it over your left shoulder."

Hey, I don't believe in this stuff either but it's worth a try.

[throwing sound]

[buzzing music]

Hey, what's that buzzing?

It sounds like someone dislodged a nest of angry hornets.

[buzzing]

Hey, no wonder it sounds like someone dislodged a nest of angry hornets.

[screaming]

[chase music]

Stop! Ouch! I didn't mean it!

Phew!

Well, apart from the fact that it stinks in here, I'm safe.

[Garfield] Actually, it doesn't smell that bad.

It smells kind like Jon's old meat loaf.

Hey, this is Jon's old meat loaf.

[chewing]

You know, with a little ketchup, this wouldn't be half bad.

Hey! Didn't you see the sign that says, "Occupied?"

[screaming]

[ominous music]

I am not...

having a good day.

[suspenseful music]

The noise, it stopped.

We've stopped.

At last, maybe I'll get out of here.

[back-up beep]

[screaming]

Oh...

I've got to find that black cat

and get him to undo this bad luck curse!

I'm going to find him and nothing's going to stop me!

[dropping sound]

-That was a flowerpot! -[dropping sound]

That was a hammer!

[dropping sound]

Ah!

That was a recurring character!

If I don't find Jonah pronto, I'm toast.

Problem is, with my bad luck,

I'm never going to find him.

Unless...

[screaming]

-[trumpeting] -Jonah crossed lots of people's paths.

So all I have to do is follow the trail of bad luck.

Yep, the jinx came this way.

I'm getting closer and luckier.

It's been a whole minute since I had any bad luck.

Maybe I'm no longer cursed.

Boy, imagine how bad a day this would be if it was Monday.

-My cart! -[crashing]

[moaning] It's no use.

I'll never find him.

I'll have bad luck the rest of my life

which at this rate won't be very long.

But maybe not.

Jonah! I found you, at last!

Don't tell me, let me guess.

Since I crossed your path, you've had nothing but bad luck.

-[dropping sound] -Bingo!

Hey, lift the curse. Please!

I would if I could but I can't.

I've been this way, spreading bad luck, since the day I got gloomy.

That was the day she dumped me.

Who dumped you?

Mindy.

She was my girlfriend.

The only woman I ever loved.

Well, maybe if we get the two of you back together,

you'll cheer up and the curse will be lifted!

You can take her some fruit!

Forget it. She won't have me.

She made that very clear.

Maybe I can make her change her mind.

Come on! Let's go find her!

[laughing]

[screaming]

[crashing]

Hey, Jonah!

Would you mind helping me out?

[Jonah] Usually,

she comes out now for her evening stroll.

Well, I sure hope so.

Want an grapefruit?

Is that her?

Yes.

Isn't she beautiful?

What are you doing here?

I said I never wanted to see you again!

Can't you give a guy a chance?

Look at him! He's such a downer!

He's always gloomy and he never smiles!

I got depressed being around him!

And now go away, both of you!

Here, maybe a slice of grapefruit will cheer you up.

Not true, Mindy!

Jonah does smile.

Look at him.

Wow!

He looks so handsome with a smile on his face!

[whispering] Okay, now tell her you love her.

[mumbling] I love you Mindy.

I can't live without you.

Oh, Jonah.

I didn't understand a word,

but I'm so pleased to see your beautiful smile.

All is forgiven.

Well done Jonah! You did it!

Oops! You swallowed your smile.

I should have known it wouldn't last!

You can't help being gloomy, can you?

He'll never change.

And since he'll never change, my luck will never change.

You think he's gloomy?

You should see how I feel.

[sighing] Goodbye.

Oops!

[laughing]

Oh my!

It's the first time I see you laugh, Jonah!

I think it's the first time I have laughed!

And you know what?

[laughing] It feels good!

Oh, Jonah!

Maybe we could be together again!

Wow!

My luck is really changing.

I hope mine does.

So this all happened last night?

Yep, Jonah and Mindy got back together.

He got happy and he stopped being a jinx.

And my bad luck went away.

That's terrific, Garfield.

-Congrats! -[dropping sound]

Garfield, what happened?

I thought the jinx of Jonah was lifted.

It is.

Unfortunately, now it's Monday.

[moaning] Oh, I hate Mondays.

[upbeat music]
