[snoring] [clock ringing]

[upbeat music]

The most famous mysterious creature there

is known as the Zabadu.

You think the Zabadu is really real?

I never saw him again.

Could your friend still be alive?

Do you think he's being held prisoner by the Zabadu?

-You got to go rescue that poor guy! -Me?

I hired a local guide to drive us.

Her name is... Angie.

[cheerful music]

I was so excited to hear you had a lead on the Zabadu.

Well, it may not work, but it's worth a try.

[panting in effort]

[tires screeching]

Arbuckle, right? Name's Dirk Dinkum, world famous explorer.

Oh, hi. I saw you on TV.

Everyone does.

Just wanted to warn you. The Zabadu's mine, you got that?

Get in my way of getting it, and you'll be right sorry.

[dramatic music]

[Garfield panting in effort]

Watch this, Odie. Jon, the quivering tower of gelatin, will back right down.

Get in my way and you'll be sorry, Dinkum.

[scary music]

You've been warned.

[screaming]

When did Jon grow a spine?

When he realized Lyman might be in trouble. That's when.

Don't pay any attention to him.

I won't. Where's your car parked?

It's an ATV and it's parked right out at the curb.

[whistling]

[intriguing music]

[cackling]

It's right over there.

And as we planned, I'll take you straight out to the jungle.

Just what I want.

I want to be home! I want to be home!

[yipping]

I did like you said, Dirk. Now, explain.

Why'd you want me to hide my cell phone in Angie's vehicle?

Your cell phone has an app so you can track it if it gets lost, right?

Right.

Well then, we can track it on my cell phone.

Wherever they go, we'll know where they are.

If anybody's gonna find the Zabadu and get rich and famous off it,

it's going to be Dirk Dinkum.

You think of everything, Dirk.

[giggling]

[joyful music]

We have 10,000 acres of jungle,

but people have only reported sightings of the Zabadu in one small area.

Take us there and I'll show you

how we might be able to locate that creature.

[whining]

That must be her cell phone. Put it back where you found it.

[whimpering]

Think it's true that the Zabadu

is holding some human beings as prisoners?

I don't know if it's true there even is a Zabadu.

If the reports are true, I'm not sure it's really a monster.

[joyful music]

[growling] Zabadu!

[intriguing music]

Now, don't get separated and let's not get too far from my vehicle.

We're, like, out in the middle of nowhere.

I wonder if there's a pizzeria around here.

Hey. What kind of bird are you?

I'm a Franistanian mockingbird.

What does a Franistanian mockingbird do?

[with Garfield's voice] "What does a Franistanian mockingbird do?"

Whoa, that's not bad.

"Whoa, that's not bad."

Ok, you can knock it off now.

"Ok, you can knock it off now."

Look, I'm getting really fed up with this.

"Look, I'm getting really fed up with this."

Garfield the Cat is the greatest creature on the entire planet

and you should give him lots of food and money.

I'm sorry. We're not allowed to lie.

"I'm sorry. We're not allowed to lie."

Hey, that's not bad.

"Hey, that's not bad."

Ok, you can knock it off now.

"Ok, you can knock it off now."

[sniffing]

What's this special way you have of finding the Zabadu?

That's it right there: Odie! He's got a terrific nose.

How does he know how the Zabadu smells?

He doesn't. He remembers what his first owner smelled like

and the Zabadu may be holding his first owner prisoner.

Worth a try, I guess.

Up here is where the Zabadu has been sighted.

See those hunters there? They shouldn't be here.

[ominous music]

This is a protected area. No hunting is allowed.

The animals here are mostly endangered,

species that could go extinct if they can't breed.

[whining]

She means there aren't a lot of them around and we need to make more.

So, this is where the Zabadu usually shows up?

Exactly. When hunters are trespassing, he seems to just--

Here he comes. Now watch.

[growling]

What's that noise?

Could it be the Zabadu?

Oh, don't be silly. The Zabadu is a fairy tale.

There's no such th--

[growling]

[shrieking]

[dramatic music]

[Garfield] Well, we won't see them around here again.

[growling]

There it goes.

Let's follow it back to its lair

or wherever it's holding prisoners.

[adventure music]

It only seems to terrorize people who are hunting illegally.

I guess that's what Lyman was doing.

Lyman hunting? No way.

You never know.

I know Lyman and how much he loved animals.

We lived together and he wouldn't even kill a cockroach.

[sniffing]

What do you smell, Odie? Pizza?

[whimpering]

Tacos?

[whimpering]

Lyman?

[yipping]

[barking]

Odie! Come back here.

[suspenseful music]

I usually don't run when there's no pizza or tacos but in this case...

This is the way the Zabadu went.

Odie! I think he went up that path.

[panting]

[barking]

[dramatic music]

[screaming]

[whimpering]

Odie!

There's a path down into the canyon this way.

[panting]

Boy, these extra-long episodes can really wear you out.

[whimpering]

[soft music]

[sniffing]

[barking]

[intriguing music]

[happily barking]

[groaning]

Odie, no! Don't go near it.

Stay away from the Zabadu!

Odie doing something dumb? What are the odds of that?

[happily panting]

[growling]

[whining]

Odie?

[soft music]

How does the Zabadu know Odie's name?

Maybe he's a big fan of this show.

He knows because he's Lyman.

Jon, great to see you.

You haven't changed, sorry to say.

[laughing]

-Hi! -Hey!

[happily barking]

[laughing]

I've missed you too, boy.

Angie, it's nice to meet you.

Great. Could you explain what you're doing in that costume?

Aren't you a photographer?

I gave it up. I have a new job now.

What's that?

I'm the Zabadu.

I can't wait to hear this explanation.

[action music]

Faster, Buckley.

We got to get to the Zabadu before that Arbuckle bloke.

I'm trying, mate.

But the road here's a mite bumpy on account of there's no road.

According to this, your cell phone

and therefore their vehicle

are about two kilometers down this here road.

[screaming]

I keep telling you, Dinkum. There's no road here.

[Dinkum] Keep driving.

[suspenseful music]

[teeth chattering]

Whose cabin do you think this is?

[Dinkum] I'll have me a little look-see.

[suspenseful music continues]

[screaming]

[muffled screaming]

Shhh!

[screaming]

Why didn't you write or call, Lyman,

to say you were alive?

Do you see a phone here? Or a post office?

I'm sorry. I guess I didn't think you'd believe me.

About what?

Sounds like we're in for a flashback scene.

Get comfy, folks. I'll try to interpret it.

As you may remember, I came here to get a photo of the Zabadu.

The group I was with wasn't getting anywhere, so you know me...

I took a chance.

I came here on my own one afternoon.

Big mistake.

[Lyman] No luck.

I was starting to believe there was no Zabadu,

that it really was just a legend,

when suddenly, I couldn't believe it,

but there it was and it seemed like it was ten feet tall.

Quickly, I pointed my camera at it, making sure I was very quiet. But...

Oh, what a time for my camera to jam!

[growling]

Bigger mistake.

[Lyman] I ran like crazy, trying to get away from it.

[growling]

I wasn't watching where I was going and ran off a cliff...

Biggest mistake.

[screaming]

[Lyman] I was lucky, if you can call it lucky.

The Zabadu didn't follow

and my only injury was a broken leg.

Trouble is, I couldn't walk and no one was around.

Help! Anyone help!

I was there for hours when someone found me.

I bet you were scared.

I don't know the meaning of "scared."

Unfortunately, I do know the meaning of "terrified."

[sad music]

And some of us know the meaning of "getting hungry."

I thought for sure I was a goner.

But then the oddest thing happened...
