[snoring] [clock ringing]

[upbeat music]

[cheerful music]

[Odie whining]

Sorry, Odie. I don't have time to play now.

I'm making dinner tonight for Liz.

It's her birthday.

I have to make it special.

She complained we never do anything special on her birthday.

I prepared a dish of carrot and celery sticks.

It was right here on the counter and now it's not here.

[sniffing]

Aha!

Celery stick?

Garfield!

You could have a carrot stick if you prefer.

I'm trying to make a nice dinner for Liz's birthday!

[whining]

[intriguing music]

I have such interesting people living near me, Winona.

That house over there...

Well, it belongs to a man named Jon Arbuckle.

Or as the neighbors call him, "The guy with the cat."

What does he do?

[action music]

And the sweet potato pie is supposed to be for six people, not one cat.

Oh! He does a lot of that.

Oh, hi, Mrs. Cauldron.

You see Garfield?

Please don't say yes. Please don't say yes.

Why, no, I didn't.

Yay, Mrs. Cauldron.

Mr. Arbuckle... I want you to meet my niece Winona.

She's staying with me for the summer.

Nice to meet you.

[giggling]

Such a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Arbuckle.

Call me Jon.

I'm sorry I can't chat. I'm making dinner.

We understand.

[Winona] Goodbye, Mr. Ar--

I mean, Jon!

I don't blame you, Garfield.

I like sweet potato pie, myself.

[cackling] Come on, Winona.

[Odie whining]

That's Mrs. Cauldron. You remember her from last season?

She's the lady I thought might be a witch.

[whining]

Why? I don't know.

Something about her voice.

It reminds me of every witch I ever saw in a cartoon.

Now, when you make your potions,

heat them over a fire.

Don't try microwaving them. It doesn't work.

These kids today...

Winona! Are you paying attention?

Oh, sorry. I was just thinking about Mr. Arbuckle...

You liked him, huh?

Oh, I more than like him, Auntie.

He's the man I'm going to marry.

Right.

Yes. He's going to be my husband.

[crow] Nevermore!

At least pay attention.

You'll never be a full-fledged witch

unless you learn your enchantments.

I'm going to go take a beauty nap.

Study your potions while I sleep.

I will, Auntie.

May I look into the Brazier of All-Seeing Wisdom?

Sure.

It's a lot cheaper than cable TV.

Just don't touch my book of spells

or my broom.

I want to see my beloved,

Jon Arbuckle.

[Jon] I made your favorite, Liz. I know you love it.

Jon, you're always so wonderful to me.

Nothing's too good for my lady.

She can't have him. He's mine.

And he is going to be mine.

Nevermore!

I will go and sweep him off to the Tower of Witchery

and marry him this night.

Nevermore!

You stupid raven!

Don't you ever say anything besides "nevermore?"

Nevermore!

I'm not supposed to borrow the broom and book of spells,

but this is an emergency!

[cackling and coughing]

I have to learn the laugh.

[dramatic music]

[Jon] Come on, guys. Let's bring in the birthday cake.

Who are you?

I'm the future Mrs. Jon Arbuckle.

What? I don't... I...

You think he'll marry you, but he won't.

And you know why? Because you're a mouse!

A mouse?

Yes... hold on. Ok, moose, molehill, mountain...

Mouse... Mouse... Ah, here it is. Mouse.

Oh my goodness!

Happy birthday, Liz! Make a wish.

Where's Liz? And who are you?

Don't you remember me, Jon? I'm Winona.

Liz isn't here and anyway, she's a mouse now.

So, I'll make a wish.

See? I get my wish,

and my wish is you marry me.

Go for it. It could be your only chance.

Wait a minute.

I'm taking you to the Tower of Witchery for the ceremony.

And since you're too big to fit on my broom with me...

Jon!

Now, as for you two...

Run, Odie!

This can't be happening.

[screaming] A mouse!

What are you? A zebra?

I'm not a mouse.

At least, I wasn't five minutes ago.

Well, this is going to take some explaining.

[Jon] Let me go!

Don't fight it, Jon. It was meant to be.

And now it's off to the Tower of Witchery to be wed!

[screaming]

[scary music]

[Odie whimpering]

Of course I have a brilliant plan to rescue Jon.

I just don't know what it is yet.

[Squeak] Try talking to the lady.

Garfield? Can you talk?

To other animals... which I'm afraid includes you now, Liz.

How can we defeat an all-powerful witch?

She may not be all-powerful. She said she's learning.

She borrowed her aunt's broom and spellbook.

And I'll bet her aunt doesn't know about it. Come on.

You'll have to talk to her, Liz.

What will I say?

Just tell her that her niece stole her stuff

and ask her if she wants a cartoonist in her family.

I told her not to touch my book of spells.

And my broom, as well.

We have to stop her from marrying Jon.

I'll say. I don't want a cartoonist in my family.

Nevermore!

That bad niece of mine took my broom,

so I'll have to use my vacuum cleaner.

Who's coming with me?

-Me. -[whining]

I'm going.

I think I'll walk home.

I get airsick. Especially flying on household appliances.

[laughing]

We'd better hurry.

They marry people fast at the Tower of Witchery.

[cackling]

Good luck! You'll need it.

Is that all you do all day? Sit around and say "nevermore"?

It's all I could get.

I have trouble learning my lines. [cawing]

[cackling]

[dramatic music]

I would be proud to conduct a wedding ceremony, Winona...

but whom do you wish to marry?

Him.

Very cute.

And practical.

Your groom is just the right size

to fit atop the wedding cake.

May I say one word?

Is it a good word?

It's an excellent word and it's very appropriate.

Very well then. Say your word.

[yelling] Help!

[Mrs. Cauldron] There!

That's the Tower of Witchery.

But I just realized we may have a tiny problem.

[Liz] What is it?

This vacuum cleaner has a thousand-mile power cord

and the Tower of Witchery is one thousand miles

and six inches from my home.

Uh oh.

[screaming]

[Liz] What are we going to do?

If anyone objects to this man and witch being joined in the magic of matrimony,

let this person speak.

Would it do any good for me to object?

No. Now, then...

[Garfield] Stop this!

[dramatic music]

We're here to save him from marrying a witch

he doesn't want to marry.

We seem to have intruders.

Ladies, what's it going to be?

Insects, statues or frogs?

[excited yelling]

[scary music]

Very well. The frogs have it.

Oh, don't complain!

I could have changed you into a moose and squirrel.

Ok, so we're frogs. [ribbiting]

At least Odie has the tongue for it. [ribbiting]

Hello? Could we get on with my marriage, please?

Indeed. If anyone objects...

[Mrs. Cauldron] I object.

[gasps]

I object to this ceremony.

My niece is not yet a full-fledged witch.

She's not? But she has a broom and a book of spells.

I stole them from my aunt.

[shocked murmuring]

She cannot be wed here if she is not a full-fledged witch.

Drop a house on her!

Quiet! We don't do that anymore.

I'm really sorry, Aunt.

I don't know what came over me.

I just thought he was so cute.

Well, we'll talk about that, dear.

Plus, I want to get your eyes checked.

Excuse me. Could you do something about... you know? This?

Yeah, could you... [ribbiting] ...possibly turn us...

[ribbiting] ...into ourselves?

Oh!

I can do better than that.

I can put everything back the way it was

and wipe your memories

so you'll have no recollection of any of this.

Sim-sala-bim!

Make a wish, Liz, and blow out the candles.

Here goes...

[blowing]

Odie, do you have the feeling that something just... I mean...

kind of...

[whimpering]

Never mind.

So, what did you wish for?

I wished that just once

something really interesting would happen on my birthday.

Be careful what you wish for, Liz.

Hey, we weren't all there to have our memories wiped out.
