[theme song]

[Liz]
We've got to fly to Africa


to stop Dirk Dinkum


from capturing a Manzian White Lion


and selling it to Spencer Spendington.

[alarm]

Next time I fly anywhere,

I'm going by bus.

[screams]

[Jon] Armstrong thinks

there's a town ten or miles from here.


We're going to leave you guys

to guard the plane.

Maybe we can sleep in this cave.
[screams]

Odie!

We're lost in the Savanah!


We're miles from civilization.

Miles from human life.


Miles from a place

to get a decent burrito.

[moan]

Which reminds me.

I haven't eaten for six hours.

This is the longest I've gone without food
since Jon tried to barbecue spaghetti.

-[ukulele sound]

-What's this music?

[whistle]
[Odie mutters]
Hey, cousin! Who do you be?
I be Garfield and he be Odie.
[bark]
Welcome, weary travellers!
I'm Bunky and he's Funky.
And I'm Funky and he's Bunky.

And he's Plunky on account of

he plays the accordion.


-Ukulele.

-Like I said. The ukulele.

And together,
we're the Baboon Brothers.

♪Welcome, dog and cat♪


-♪Here's our welcome mat♪

-♪We’ll have a lovely chat♪

[whistle]

-♪You are a joy to meet♪

-♪Sorry about the heat♪


-♪So sit and rest your feet♪

-♪Have something good to eat♪

[laugh]

Jupiter is the largest planet

in the Earth's solar system.

[drum roll]
Nice to meet you, Garfield.
We don't get a lot of mice around here.

-I'm a cat.

-Like I said, cat.


A cat's ear has a total

of thirty two muscles.

You and your friend look kind of hungry.
You're one smart baboon.
We can let you share in our evening feast.

We always have our favorite

traditional local recipe.

I'm famished but what is it?

I know not what you call it

where you come from,

but here, the name we have for it is...
Lasagna.
[giggles]
Yeepee!
Is this a kind of food you could eat?
Oh, I suppose I could give it a try.
He he.
We'll spend the night at the hotel here,
then go out first thing in the morning.
I'm worried about Garfield and Odie.
And about stopping Dirk Dinkum.
I'm not worried about stopping Dinkum.

-Not with you around, Jon.

-Ahem.

Hello, hello.

What were you saying

about Garfield and Odie?

Well, we're worried about them.

It's hard for me to imagine

Garfield out in the forest


eating berries and plants.

He must be so miserable.


♪Life out in the wild♪


♪The place for you and me♪


♪Running merrily♪


♪That’s the way life should be♪


♪Life out in the wild♪


♪Go out and climb a tree♪


♪Forget all misery♪


We should never

have left them with the plane.

They must be so hungry.

♪Some people surround themselves♪


♪With walls

That limit what they see♪


They're probably cold.

And scared.

And bored. And lonely.

♪Life out in the wild♪


♪It's a total symphony♪


♪Filled with harmony♪


♪That's the way life should be♪


♪Life out in the wild♪


♪Just hear the melody♪


♪When you're living free♪


♪That’s the way life should be♪


There's nothing

we can do for them tonight.


I suppose you're right. Come on.

I'll walk you to your room.

Poor Garfield. Poor Odie.
Hey!
This map that bloke sold me is worthless.
You can't blame that on me.
Sure I can!
But I got a lead in the village.

There are Manzian White

Lions up at the west portal.


I'm tellin' ya.

My uncle knows where there's--

Oh, shut up about your uncle.
We're going to the west portal

where I'm gonna bag me

a Manzian White Lion.


Great. Hey, how much is that

Spendington guy gonna pay us?


He's gonna pay me so much, I can

buy the house next door to his.


I'm gonna take a nap. Wake me

when we reach the west portal.

That was a great breakfast, guys.
And a wonderful sleep.

I am glad you like

our native breakfast foods.

We call that "pancakes with sausage."
I'll have to remember that name.
There are ,, seconds in a year.

Yeah... you wanted to know about

the Manzian White Chipmunks.


-Lions.

-Like I said, Lions.


They're supposed to be

these super-rare animals.


And they're supposed

to be incredibly beautiful.

Well, I think they are magnificent,

but you can see for yourself.

There's one up there.

[Bunky] That's Queen Tanya,
a Manzian White Lion.
[mutters]
Odie wants to know why she seems so sad.
She's sad because she lost her mate.
King Royale, they called him.
It happened three months ago.
Two months ago.

Like I said.

Two months ago.


King Royale...he was

a fine figure of a lion.


Regal. Majestic.

When he roared,


every animal for kilometers

around snapped to attention.

[royal roar]

And he and Queen Tanya were a fine couple.

And then one day,
this hunting party came into the area.

We knew what they wanted...

What they all want.


-[growls]

-Odie wants to know...

Isn't hunting ill*gal?
Sure it is!
By international treaty!
I looked it up on the 'net, see?

"ill*gal to hunt or capture

the Manzian White Lion."

So we did our best to distract them.

[Plunky]
But it did not work.


When he spotted them,


his first instinct was

to stand his ground and fight.

[growl]
But then...well, Funky has a theory...

Ahem!

The theory is


that he wanted to lure

the hunters away from Tanya.

By the way, an adult male lion

can run at speeds of up

to fifty miles per hour.

[sniggers]

[Plunky]

But it still wasn't fast enough.


-[g*nsh*t]

-[gasp]

That was the last we saw of him.

-Was he... You know...

-We don't know.

We think we know,
and we think the worst.
But Tanya
is sure he's alive.

Every morning, she goes up there

and waits.


Just waits for him to come back

to her and the children.

[sobs]
Children?

Just after King Royale went

away, she had triplets.

Twins!
[Bunky] Like I said, twins.

The boy is named Prince

and the girl is named Princess.

Want to meet them?
Queen Tanya doesn't talk much.

She hasn't said a word since

King Royale went away.

But we'll introduce you to the twins.
Come on!

[Armstrong]

No sign of them in the plane.

And no sign of them anywhere around.

Which direction would Garfield

have started walking in?

Which direction is the nearest pizzeria?

See? I told you I saw them

ahead on the road.


Doesn't matter. While they're

doing what we're doing,


I'll be bagging me one very

expensive lion. Come on.

We'd better head for the west portal.

We have to reach those lions

before Dinkum does.

You're right.

Let's just look around a little

more for Garfield and Odie.

Fine.
Jon is amazing.
So smart and so adorable.
You're talking about my Jon?
Of course!
Hun hun.

I don't think she really

understands that he's my Jon.

I'm making real good progress, sir.
Dinkum, we should go and--

Shut up.

I'm talking to the bloke

who's going to make me very wealthy.
Pardon me, Mr. Spendington.
I was just saying...

if there's any way you could get

the Manzian White Lion

back here by tomorrow night,
I'm having a party,

and I'd like to show it off for

some of my wealthier friends.

The ones who own their own islands.
I'll do my best, sir.
Dinkum, we really need to pick--

-Will you shut up?

-Just saying...

Nice to talk to you too, sir.
What is so all-fired important

that you have to interrupt me

talking to a man


who's going to give me

millions of dollars?

I realized this is a quicksand area.
Quicksand?
Quicksand isn't dangerous.

Nobody in the world is stupid

enough to sink into quick--

Buckley, you idiot! You moron!
I'm telling ya, Dirk.

It would be so much easier

if we called my uncle.

Again with the uncle!

Buckley, I've had it with you!

You're fired!


You'll be sorry, Dinkum!

You'll be so sorry!

I'll call my uncle

and you'll be sorry

you treated me the way you did!


Better start walking.

You got a long way home.

Max? It's Dinkum.
You still based in Manzia City?

[Max]
Sure! What's up?


Great.

You still got that helicopter?

The one with the trapping attachments?

[Max]
Got it right here, ready to go.


Perfect.

I need you to pick me up

and head for the west portal.
I'm through kidding around.

We're gonna go bag me

a very valuable beast.


[Jon]
Angie says the last two Manzian

White Lions

are in Manzia.

So that's obviously

where Dinkum is heading.


How much is that

Spendington guy gonna pay us?

He's gonna pay me so much
I can buy the house next door to his.
[all scream]

Odie!

We're lost in the Savanah!

I'm Bunky and he's Funky.
And I'm Funky and he's Bunky.

It's hard for me to imagine

Garfield out in the forest


eating berries and plants.

We're going to the west portal

where I'm gonna bag me

a Manzian White Lion.


Oh! Dinkum's on his way

to the west portal.

He knows where the lions are.

So we'd better be on our way

to the west portal.

Garfield... where are you?

[Prince] Mr. Garfield, could we

ask you a question?


-[Princess] Yeah. Could we?

-[Garfield] Sure. Go ahead.

What are you?
Yeah, what are you?
What do you mean?

Well, Alice is a rhinoceros

and Brucie is an elephant

and Jeremiah, he's a giraffe.
So, like... What are you?
I'm a cat.

-[laugh]

-You can't be a cat.

What?
Yeah. We're cats.
Not all cats roar.
We roar.
Yeah, let's roar for him.
[roar]

Now me! Now me!

[roar]

[purr]
We want to hear you roar!

[together]

We want to hear you roar!


-We want to hear you roar!

-Alright, alright.

I'll roar.
[strange roar]
[laughter]
[laughter]
You call that a roar?
Jeremiah Giraffe roars better
and he can't even make any sound!
[laughter]
Okay, so I can't roar.
But I can do other things.
Like what?
Can you gallop across the ravine?
No.

-Are you the King of Beasts?

-No.

Can you pounce on a dangerous foe?

Only if it's a mushroom pizza.

Listen, I do a lot of things.


I eat and I sleep.

Then I eat and I sleep.


And then for a change,

I sleep and then eat.

Oh, and I mail Nermal to Abu Dhabi.
Then I eat some more,
and then I sleep.

[gasps]

-Eh eh eh!

-Bwaaah!

Huh... You're not a cat.
Nope. Not a cat.
[groans]

How are Jon and the others

ever going to find us?

Hey, Garfield!

Did you know that snails can

sleep for up to three years?


In my home,

we call that a quick nap.

Funky, is there a phone around here?

Ha ha!

The nearest phone is--

. kilometers away.
It says here you share your birthday

with at least nine million

other people on this planet.


I've got to find some way

to tell Jon where we are!

[engine sound]
And I think I have to find it in a hurry.
There's lions around here someplace!
And there they are!
Two of them!
[Prince] What's that?

[Princess] That's the weirdest bird

I ever saw!

[barks]
A little on the small side but they'll do.
[roar]

Down there!

That's the kind of lion

Spendington will pay good money for!
That's the one I want!

-[barks]

-[roar]

What is she doing?

Trying to draw that hunter away

from the twins!

Come on!
Here! Hide these two.
We'll hide you from the steamship.
Helicopter.
Like I said. Helicopter.
Wow!
A hunter! We gotta go save Mama!
Yeah!
[arguing]
No! We have one lion in danger!
We don't need three!
Argh! Missed!

But I won't miss again!

Max! After her!


I have to find some way

to tell Jon where we are.

[mutters]
No, there's no phone for miles.

Funky looked it up on

his computer and he said--


Hey, did you know that Wayne Newton

is only four foot tall--

Nevermind!
Can you send a text message on that thing?

Sure!

You got a phone number?

It's --
-...

Garfield?

Where are you?


The lions and Dinkum could be

anywhere in this whole area.


Jon! I've got your cell phone

and you just got a text message.

Not now, Liz.
But it's from Garfield!
Garfield?

And he gives us the coordinates

of where he and Odie are!

And the lions!

Give 'em to me, ladies!

And hope we're in time!

Run all you want!

Eventually, you'll be too tired

to run and I'll still be here!

They're somewhere in this area!
Yeah. But where?

That helicopter! That's got

to be Dirk Dinkum!


Odie!

Do you know how to roar?

[mutters]
Well, learn fast!
[groan]
I am about to make myself very rich.
[growl]
What is that animal?

That's a very fat pussycat

trying to distract me.

Nice try, cat!
You can lose the roar-over, Odie.
It's not working.

-Garfield!

-Come on!

[panting]
[laughter]
[roar]
[evil laughter]
[groans]
Max, fly me to the airport.
I have a very precious cargo to deliver.
[groans]
We got here too late.
That bad man got her.
Didn't he?

-He got her...

-But we promise you...

He is not going to keep her.
[groans]
At least we know where he's taking her.

To the Spendington Estate.

It's not far from where we live.

We can be on the next plane there.
I have a friend who flies cargo there.
He can give us a lift.
You know how determined I was

that time Jon said

"No more pepperoni pizza"?

And how determined I was when Nermal

wanted to turn

the whole house into the Nermal

World Fan Club Headquarters?
Hmm hmm!
I am even more determined
than those two times put together.
Wow!
[chatter]
We're almost ready to take off.
The plane only seats four plus the pilot,

so you two will have to ride

in the cargo hold.

In the cargo hold?
Like baggage?
What does he think we are? Animals?

But I still won't do it. I will

not ride in the cargo hold!

And I forgot to tell you.

You'll be happy to know

what the cargo is in there.

Canned lasagna.

He didn't tell me

this was a luxury flight.

Yeepee!

Come on, Odie. I get the seat

near the can opener.

[groan]
Wait! Wait!
You can't leave without us!
We're coming with you on the unicycle.

-Airplane.

-Like I said, airplane.


Great.

But where's Funky?

Right behind us.
[whinny]
[laughter]
They insisted on coming along.
We told him if he didn't take us...
We were going to run there.
They would have done it.
And probably beaten us there.
Okay. Everyone aboard!
[together] Yeah!
[Jon] No kidding,

this Mr. Spendington

has his own private zoo.

Man, talk about rich.
It's full of animals,
rare species that belong back in the wild.

Or at least in public zoos

where people can see them.


That's no place for one

of the last Manzian White Lions.


I checked and Mr. Spendington's

having a big party

at his estate tomorrow tonight.
He probably wants to show off his new--
[ukulele]

Does anyone besides me think

they're hearing music?

It sounds like Ukulele music.
