[upbeat music]

[cheerful music]

I look good, even if I do say so myself. And I often do.

[growling]

[muttering]

-He's coming? -[whining]

Good. The detour sign is in place. Let's hide.

[humming]

"This way to enter contest for cutest kitten in the whole wide world."

That's moi.

I didn't know about this contest, but I'll win.

I always do.

[laughing]

Whoa!

[laughing]

That's not funny, Garfield.

Of course it's funny. It's just not funny to you.

[laughing]

Whoa!

You were right, Nermal. This isn't funny.

Well. It looks like someone needs a bath.

[all] Yes! They do!

[scratching sound]

Stop sulking.

I know you don't like baths.

That's not true.

I bathe once a year, need it or not.

-[telephone] -That must be Liz. Here...

I'll leave you the loofah. Scrub while I'm gone.

[muttering]

Nah, this isn't so bad.

Especially since I have my toy boat and my wind-up shark.

Help! Shark, shark!

[giggling]

I like this cool rubber mermaid.

[sputtering]

[laughing]

Sorry, Odie. Just trying to amuse myself.

Taking a bath is so boring.

Well, you don't know how to make it interesting.

Make up a story.

Make up a story? How do you do that?

I'll show you. Wanna play, Odie?

[yipping]

Then follow me.

[inhaling]

[inhaling]

[inhaling]

[eerie music]

Wow. Is it like this at the bottom of every bathtub?

It is if you use your imagination.

Or even better, if you have your own cartoon show.

[whining]

This is so cool.

Hey, Garfield.

We breathe and talk underwater?

It's my fantasy, so I make up the laws of science.

Hey, come on. Let's check out the surface.

I could ride around like this all day.

No, you can't. You see, the trouble with bubbles is...

Might as well join them.

Hey, recognize that boat coming towards us?

It looks like your toy boat, the one that came with the...

Shark!

[intriguing music]

[screaming]

[screaming]

No!

[sighing]

Made it.

Oh, my!

[intriguing music]

He's after us. Start paddling.

Faster, faster!

[suspenseful music]

[screaming]

We're not going fast because we're too heavy.

Get rid of any non-essential items.

Good idea.

[screaming]

-[screaming] -[whimpering]

Hey, it's a fantasy... and anyway, that's a toy shark.

You wind him up and he's only good for about 15 seconds.

Sorry to be a bother, but could someone wind me up again?

-Will you leave us alone if we do? -Sure.

Ok, then.

Thanks.

You're welcome.

[soft music]

You're lucky it doesn't run on alkaline batteries.

Well, ok, Garfield. This is your fantasy. What's next?

[Odie yipping]

[joyful music]

Looks like flying fish.

Hey, you look like that thing Jon was using to scrub us.

Just call me Loofah.

You guys are far from your bathtub.

Yeah. Any idea how we get back to it?

I don't, but I'll bet the mermaids do.

They live on the other side of Shampoo Island, past the Giant Faucet Waterfalls.

I'll be your guide.

How are we supposed to follow you?

You can paddle, can't you?

In my fantasy? Not going to happen.

I've got a much better idea.

Floor it, Loofah.

Jon is baking lasagna, and I'd hate to be late.

Almost there.

Look, the Giant Faucet Waterfalls.

[ominous music]

[screaming]

[screaming]

Over there! That's where the mermaids hang out.

But beware of their singing.

I know this legend.

You should beware of mermaids singing because it's so beautiful,

it will lure you to crash your ship on the rocks.

No, beware of it because they're just kind of lousy.

Oh!

[out-of-tune singing]

♪♪

It's enough to make me give up seafood.

♪♪

We have visitors.

Loofah, who are your friends?

I'll introduce us. I'm Garfield. This is Odie.

[barking]

And I'm Nermal, the cutest cat on land or sea.

Remind me to leave you out of my next fantasy.

What brings you here?

Loofah told us you could help us find our way back home.

Oh, sure. We know how to...

Wait, sister!

[whispering]

We've discussed...

And we decided that we'll tell you how to get back to your tub.

If you'll do something for us.

Does it involve listening to you sing?

No.

We'll do it.

Our cove here is under siege.

A terrible monster lurks about, threatening all

and scaring everyone away.

Get rid of it and we will tell you how to get home.

Terrible monster?

[screaming]

What exactly is this terrible monster?

- It's a... - Rubber ducky!

Right.

How could a rubber ducky hurt you?

[monstrous quacking]

[shrieking]

[monstrous quacking]

[scary music]

[screaming]

Garfield, what are we going to do?

I have an idea. Loofah, here's what I need you to do.

-You understand? -Got it.

Come on, Loofah! Hurry!

[scary music]

[screaming]

[screaming]

Where are they?

There they are! Quick, ladies, it's showtime!

[out-of-tune singing]

♪♪

[panicked quacking]

Thank you for getting rid of the rubber ducky.

We never thought of using our singing to drive him away.

We want you to have these seashell necklaces.

And now we'll keep our promise.

And tell you how to get back to your own bath tub.

Come here.

Really?

Wow. Thanks, ladies.

Before you go...

Would you like us to sing you a farewell song?

[all] No!

But thanks anyway. And thanks to you, too, Loofah.

Have a happy journey home, guys.

Come on, guys. Follow me.

[suspenseful music]

Come on, guys. Give me a paw.

[struggling]

It's no use, guys. We can't budge it.

Hello! Can I help?

Sure. Lend us your jaws.

Thanks!

Sorry, guys. Liz really can get to talking sometimes...

You unplugged the tub to let the water out.

I guess you guys are clean.

I'll go get some towels.

Garfield! We're back! Did any of that happen?

[whimpering]

Of course not. It was just a fantasy.

And not a bad one, if I do say so myself.

[sniffing]

I think the lasagna is ready.

Do you think any of that really happened?

[whining]

Ok, then how do you explain these?

[whining]

I kind of like them.
