[theme song]
I am Sir Arbuckle III,

I was on my way to track down

a mythical treasure.

The Horn of Plenty.
Mackookoo,

I challenge ye

to a pirate showdown!


Ye may have won this battle,

Cap'n Garfield...

It's me boat!
Not any more it isn't!

You must be mistaken.

This is indeed the Cat O' Nine Tails,

Cap'n Garfield's vessel!
Yeah! You can tell it's mine
'cause it's full of canned lasagna.
Not any more. A one-eyed parrot

sold it to me

for three measly doubloons...


That blasted,

cargo-thieving parrot!


And what is thy lovely name,

fair lady?

[birds are singing]
I'm, uh...
Liverpool Liz.

I've heard no tales about

any pirate named Liverpool Liz...

Me neither.

♪When someone says Liverpool Liz

Everyone knows just who that is♪


♪On all the ships

And on the piers♪


♪I am the queen of buccaneers♪


♪No sailing ship is safe from me♪


♪The crews I conquer all agree♪

♪My crewman shout hip-hip hurray♪


♪They give me great applause

And cheers♪

Is just your crew♪


♪They'll never now know

The real you♪


♪And if someday a pair of lips♪


♪Should conquer me as I seize ships♪


♪He will not draw too many tears♪


♪From the poor queen of buccaneers♪

I'll tell you what,
how about I hire you as my crew?
Mine just, uh, called in sick.

Bubonic plague

or somethin' like that.


Oh, yeah. There's a lot of that

going around.


Me, a mere crewmember

on me own ship?

Not gonna happen!
Not so smartly, rapscallions!

Arrest them and seize

their treasure map

handsomely!
Uh, all things considered...
we'll accept yer generous offer...
Fine! Hop on board!
They're getting away!
Do something!

We're too late!

That mangy cat escaped!

Ye? What are ye doing here?

Same as ye!

Trying to stop Cap'n Garfield.


Since it appears we both

want the same thing,


maybe it's in our best interest

to work together.

And why would I need ye?

Because I know something

ye don't...

You've got yourself a partner, mate.

[narrator]

On, the Cat O' Nine Tails cruised,


deeper and deeper

into the Caribbean...

[snores]

That hot bath

was really long overdue!

Good afternoon, Liverpool Liz.
What?
Is something wrong?
Sir Arbuckle?
You clean up pretty good, Arbuckle.
[moans]

I say.

You look a little...sea sick!

Seasick? Of course not!

Not with all the years

I've logged aboard ships.

I'm glad you agreed to join us

in our quest

for the Horn of Plenty.


Why not? To accompany you

on a real treasure hunt?


I daresay that would be

quite marvelous indeed!

Er... Arrr! Yo-h*-h*! I'm in!
And where shall we look

for the missing part

of that map of yours?

Gloogloo Island.
Gloogloo Island?
Every scallywag knows better

about setting foot

on that cursed island.

Relax.

There's no such thing

as an island with a curse on it,

except in cartoons.
Wait a minute.
This is a cartoon.

♪Off we go to find a treasure♪


♪Finding it will be our pleasure♪

[cheering]

♪Off we go upon our quest♪


♪Looking for a hidden chest♪


♪I can see the jewels and gold♪


♪Such a picture to behold♪


♪Riches far beyond compare♪

[narrator]
And soon,

our band of merry scallywags


sailed past the deadly reefs

of Craggledoom,


around the bay of Point Dread


and far beyond

the Gangrene Peninsula,


on their way to the cursed

shores of Gloogloo Island.


But, unbeknownst to our heroes,


an evil mastermind


and his insufferable new sidekick

had already beaten them to it!


The narrator

doesn't seem to like me.


See? I told ye they'd be setting

sail for Gloogloo Island.


Perfect. Let those addlepates

do all the dirty work,


then we'll steal both

parts of their treasure map!

[evil laughter]

[narrator]
Before long,

the Cat O' Nine Tails


had reached

Gloogloo Island...


There's something scary

about this forest...

Somewhere on this island
is another piece of the map
to the Horn of Plenty.
[Odie moans]

[Garfield] I'll settle

for a good hot dog stand.

[turkeys gobble]
[Garfield moans]
Let me handle this.

During my time

as a castaway,


I've learned to channel

my inner-animal


and communicate

with any life form...

[clears his throat]
Guzzi guzzi gooo!

Whooza pretty birdy?

Whooza pretty birdy?

Guzzi guzzi goo!

I'm not sure

but I think he just said,


"I would like to

serve your family


with giblet gravy

for Thanksgiving dinner!"

[electronic music]
Sorry!

♪Bobby blew a bubble

And then he blew a double♪


♪Got into a squabble

Gobble gobble gobble♪


♪Randy rocked the rubble

And found himself in trouble♪


♪Got into a squabble

You will be happy to hear

we have decided to release you.

Good.
Three of you, that is.
The cat will stay with us.
Bad.

Leave him and we will let you

leave this island.


You can't leave

Captain Garfield here.

Yeah. What they said.

We can't leave without

what we came for...


a piece of the map

to the Horn of Plenty.

Hand me the piece of map.

Here it is.

Now, do we have a deal?


The map and your freedom

for the cat.

You have a deal.
Sir Arbuckle! You can't.

[narrator]

But Captain Garfield had figured out


what was on the mind

of Sir Arbuckle


and it was a clever plan...


They were released,

the map was given to them


and Sir Arbuckle

handed over the cat...

He is asleep.

Allow him the privilege

of a final nap.

Prepare him for dinner.

I have long yearned to feast

on roast pussycat

with all the trimmings.
[gobble]
It is a stuffed toy!

We have been tricked!

After them!


Glad I took that toy

of Cap'n Garfield

along in my backpack!
[screaming]
[bell]

Throw us the two parts

of the treasure map first,


and I'll ask me bucko here

to maneuver close enough


so ye can hop

on the crow's nest...


And how do we know

you'll keep your word?

Parrot's honor!

We don't have much choice,

Cap'n Garfield.

Hey! But you said...
"But you said, but you said"
[laughter]

Ye should never trust

a parrot's word!


Again we see there's nothing

ye can possess


which I cannot take away,

Cap'n Garfield!

Ye'll regret this, me bucko!

Well... It was a pleasure

knowing you, lads...

I just wanted to say that...

[narrator]
There they were,

floating in the sea.


I'm glad you agreed to join us

in our quest for the Horn of Plenty.

Maybe it's in our best interest
to work together.
And where shall we look

for the missing part

of that map of yours?

Gloogloo Island.

Throw us the two parts

of the treasure map first!


Ye should never trust

a parrot's word!

[screaming]
[shrill vocals]

I haven't seen

fish run like that


since I went to that

all-you-can-eat seafood buffet.


What on earth could possibly

make such abominable sound?

[laughter]
That would be us!

Thanks for scaring those sharks

away, fair ladies...

"Fair"? Please...

They're just big sardines

with way too much makeup.

You're welcome.

We weren't going to let

those mean bad sharks devour


such a handsome lad,

were we, girls?

No. We weren't.
Men...

Pardon me

but we have bigger fish to fry,

no offense.
None taken.
You have amazing vocal talents.
Thank you. Of course,
we could show you if you'd like.
No thanks, we're good.

♪When you're a mermaid

You spend your days♪


♪Hanging around

All the beaches and bays♪


♪The land's inviting♪


♪Seems so exciting♪


♪But still we have to stay here

By the water♪


♪Where we sing this phrase♪


♪Doo doo doo doo doo

Doo doo doo doo doo♪


♪Doo doo doo doo doo

Doo doo doo doo doo♪


♪You're on a rock

The whole afternoon♪


♪They give us two weeks off

Every June♪


♪The land is calling♪


♪It seems enthralling♪


♪But still we have to stay here

By the water♪


♪Where we sing this tune♪


♪Doo doo doo doo doo

Doo doo doo doo doo♪


♪Doo doo doo doo doo

Doo doo doo doo doo♪


♪To live like this♪


♪It may seem wrong♪


♪But in each piracy tale♪


♪We serenade and we get paid♪


♪That’s a good reason we belong♪


♪Here by the water with this song♪


♪Doo doo doo doo doo

Doo doo doo doo doo♪


♪Doo doo doo doo doo

Doo doo doo doo doo♪


♪Doo doo doo doo doo

Doo doo doo doo doo♪


How about we escort you

back to your boat?


Yeah! We'll protect you from

those mean nasty sharks.

Well, if you wouldn't mind...

Oh, no.

We'll go fetch yer rowing boat!


[narrator]
Soon, the mermaids

were taking their new friends


back to their ship...


Floor it, sea-witches.

We don't have all day.


[panting]

We're... doing... the best...

we can...
Thanks, ladies!

You're more than welcome,

Sir Arbuckle!

Come visit us again.
We know lots more songs!
I'll bet you do.
[Garfield] So long!
[bark]

Well. Now that

Mackookoo and Nermal


have two-thirds

of the treasure map,

we might as well call it quits...
Despair not, me buckos,

for I had time

to decipher a note


scribbled on the back

of the second part,


right before tossing it

over to our enemies!

You did?

It said that the third

and final piece of the map


was stolen

by Purple Beard...

[scream]
You've heard of him?

Every scallywag

knows of Purple Beard.


The most feared pirate

in all of the Caribbean!

Was.
No one has seen him in years!

He made the front page news

of
Pirate Monthly
:


"Purple Beard's puzzling

disappearance"


His ship, the Purple Turtle

went missing


while sailing

North of Tarantula Island!


And I'll bet

our entire loot of lasagna,


that's where we'll find

that worm riddled parrot


and his treacherous

furry partner!

Yo-h*-h*, me hearties!

Fly the banner

up the high mast!


We're setting sail

for Tarantula Island!

I can see Tarantula Island!

Soon the last part of the

treasure map shall be mine!

Ours!

We're in this together,

remember?

Uh... Of course!
Once we find the Horn of Plenty,

I shall rule over

the seven seas and I shall...


-Arr!

-Not now!


Ye're interrupting my villainous

monologue, fat pirate!

Where was I?
Oh yes!

Once the Horn of Plenty

is finally mine...


-Arr!

-What is it?

I apologize, Liverpool Liz.

I don't know

what came over me!


Those mermaids must have

had me under a magic spell...

A magic spell? Please...

That's the lamest excuse

if ever there was one!

Oh please...forgive me!
Never!

I won't listen

to any more of your lies!


I'd rather be

eaten alive by a giant whale!

Is everyone all right?
[panting]
Where are we?
Why is it so dark?

Shiver me timbers!

We're... We're...

In deep trouble.
Wait, where's Cap'n Garfield?
Cap'n Garfield!
He's gotta be in here someplace.

He got swallowed up

like the rest of us.

Hey,
isn't that him over there?
I think that is him.

-But he looks...

-It can't be.

Oh no...
It is Captain Garfield.
But he can't be...
[Odie howls]
No!
Buck up, men.

The Cap'n would have

wanted us to be strong.

[moans]
Hey!

Can't a guy

take a nap inside a whale


without everybody

jumping to conclusions?


[Harry and Bruno]

Our Cap'n's alive! Yo-h*-h*!


Well, let's set to it.

Where's me ship?

Where be the Cat O' Nine Tails?
I'm afraid this is it, Cap'n.
Oh...

[Mackookoo]

Oh! So glad ye finally made it!

Mackookoo!

Out of all the giant whales

in the ocean,


why did ye have to pick

this one?


Tis' no time for bickering,

me bucko.


I suggest we call

a temporary truce

'til we get out of here alive...
We're doomed!

We'll never get out of

here and worst of all,


the world shall no longer

be graced

by my breathtaking beauty.

[gasp]

Hey!

Have we met somewhere before?
Yer face seems familiar...

Commodore Nermal

acts like he knows you...


He must have me confused

with someone else...


Tis' sailcloth!

It's from the Purple Turtle,

Purple Beard's vessel!

This whale must have swallowed

Purple Beard, too!


Odie, can ye find

him for us?

[barks]
You already have?
[barks]
Then take me to him!
[barks]
[barks]
[hubbub]

[narrator]

The brave dog led the others


deeper into that whale's gut...


And more importantly,


they found what

must have been Purple Beard.


A part of him, anyway...

He's lost weight. And beard.
But you know what he does have?
The last piece of the map!
The map!

I'll be holding onto that,

Mackookoo.

Sure, mate. Of course you will.

So now we have the map

to the Horn of Plenty.


Yeah. A lot of good it'll do us

stuck in here


'til we all look like

Purple Beard.


There must be

some kind of way out of here.


[narrator]

It was the time of defeat.


It was the time of despair.


It was the time

in one of these stories


when someone says


"It's a crazy idea

but it just might work."


It's a crazy idea

but it just might work!

Commodore Nermal!
I'll need your candlestick.
What?
Everyone! Take cover!
Or something!

Sir Arbuckle?

If we don't get out of here I...


I forgive you about

that whole mermaid incident.


I don't exactly

deserve a gold star

for best behavior...
What do you mean?
I'm not really who I said I was.
Well then...who are you?
I'm really...

Wow. I didn't think

that would work either!

[laughter]

[narrator]
Indeed,

it looked as if Cap'n Garfield


and his band

of merry scallywags


were back in action!


But what terrible

ordeals awaited them


on their quest

to find the Horn of Plenty?
