[theme song]

Angie says the last few

Manzian White Lions are in Manzia.


So that's obviously

where Dinkum is heading.


Do you have any idea

how much Spendington


will pay me

when I'll bring him


Manzian White Lions

for his zoo?

We want to hear a roar!
A roar?
Grr...
[laughter]
After her!

How do we get past

the guards?


That's what I've been

trying to figure out.

[muttering]
"Where'd Jon get the van?"

They borrowed it from that

cargo company that flew us home.


Jon can't figure out a way to

get inside so it's up to me.


All right, guys.

Here's what I want you to do!


Go right on in.

You're just in time.


Mr. Spendington's about to unveil

the newest addition to his zoo.


Two male guests,

two female guests...

[monkey squeaking]

Three baboon guests...

"Three baboon guests!"

Uh h*!

Baboons? They must have

gotten out of the zoo somehow.

Stop! Stop, baboons!

Look!

The guard is leaving his post!

This is our chance!

Mr. Spendington,

your zoo here is divine.


I especially like

those little bears

with the black eyes.
Oh, you mean my pandas!
Glad you like them, Mrs. Dumont.

They're very rare

and very expensive.

She's all set, Mr. Spendington.
Now, about my fee...

Spendington, is this unveiling

going to happen?


I need to get back

to the station


We can't keep

the Chief of Police waiting!

This way, Chief Wilson.
Woof! Woof!
Argh!
Garfield! Come join us!

-We wanna go too.

-Yeah! We wanna help Mom!

Stay here. Odie, guard them.

Come on.

I have no idea what to do.

Sounds like a typical Jon plan to me...
...and as you know,

I collect the most interesting

animals


from all around the world

to share with my friends.

My very rich friends.
[Appreciative laughter]

With the help of famed trapper

Dirk Dinkum here...

Yeah!
Woof!
Argh!
I bring you direct from Africa,
the rarest animal in the world
the Manzian White Lion!
Oh!
Oooh!

This is the only one

in the country

and I have her!
Do what I do!

That animal looks sad.

Are you mistreating her?

Oh!
You shouldn't mistreat animals!
We're descent people!

We don't want

animal mistreatment!

Why is that lion so sad?
[clamour]
No, no!
This lion is happy.
Very happy!

I'll show you how happy

she is...

I wouldn't go in there with her.
Keep your advice to yourself!

You can see she's too depressed

to do anything.

Oh...
She can't even move!

Please! Assure us

this lovely creature

is not suffering!
No, no, she's fine, she's fine!
Get up! Get up!
She's very happy to be here!

You want a White Manzian Lion,

Mr. Spendington?

I brought you the best one!

My uncle bagged it

and now you can pay me for it


instead of paying that

ornery bloke!

Buckley, you double-crosser!
[roar]
Ooh!
[roar]
Garfield! That lion!

-It's King Royale!

-What?

It's King Royale!

-Queen Tanya's husband!

-The father of the twins!

The one the hunters took away!

-[roar]

-Mama!

[muttering]
Woof! Woof!
Someone! Anyone!
Let me out of here!

I told you my uncle

had a white lion!


You didn't told me you were right

for once in your life.

Guard!
Dinkum !
Please! Somebody!
Cat! Please, let me out!
There switches over there!

Switches that unlock

the cages here!


Throw the switch

marked "lion cage."

Okay!

And while I'm at it,

I think I'll throw this switch

and this switch...
and this switch...
[growl]
[howl]
Ooh!
Oh! The animals!
They're all loose!
Aah!
Argh!
All my animals are loose!
All my expensive, costly animals
that I paid so much for!
Ooh!
I'm telling you guys!

I don't have any more

sandwiches for you!

You work for me!

Not any more, mate!

You fired me!


Well, I've got a good mind

to hire you back

so I can fire you again!
Ooh!

[Mrs Dumont]

And now the other lion is loose!

[roars]
Aah!
Ooh!

Let's you

and I settle this later!

Whatever you say, Dinkum.
Let me out of here right now!
Let me out!

-Nice job, guys.

-What are the white lions doing?

Reuniting!

I want you to meet

your son and daughter.

My son... my daughter...
Daddy!
Woof!
Sit tight, folks.

We're real close

to a happy ending here.


Get every man

we can spare over here!


We have dozens of animals

to round up. And...

Oh!
[whistle blast]
Everyone, be quiet!

I'm going to

get to the bottom of this!


Remember back in Africa

you showed me that webpage


about the law

against hunting these lions?


-I've got it bookmarked!

-Call it up!

We may need it.
Who's responsible for this mess?

Those people!

They weren't invited!

The trouble all started with them!
And that cat!

That cat let all my expensive

animals loose!

Cat, is that true?
Yeah!

I'm going to have to arrest you

and your friends here!

But you can't!
Let us explain...
Before you do, Chief,
maybe you'd be interested in... this!
Mr. Spendington!

Can you prove these

Manzian White Lions are yours?

Absolutely!

I'm buying the two big ones

and those two little ones

from these fine men here.
Let me out of here right now!
Because it says here

that importing Manzian

White Lions is ill*gal


and that people involved

in doing such things

go to prison for many years!
Aah!
Bye bye!
Woof!
[laughter]

I called the cab

and it's on its way.


Don't you want me

to drive you two to the airport?


Thanks, Jon.

But you deserve a rest


Right.

I was just telling Liz here


Mr. Spendington has agreed

to make his private zoo public.


And to allow the animal rights society

to return the rarest ones to the wild.


They're going to spend a long time

where they tried to put the lions:

behind bars...
Speaking of which

King Royale, Queen Tanya and the twins

should be back in Africa by now.

Back in their natural habitat.
And those baboons, too.
You're a fine man, Jon Arbuckle!

-And you're lucky to have him.

-I think so, too.

Most of the time.

We got back three years ago


-
Three minutes ago!

-
Just like I said...


The lions are acting

like everything is normal.

[muttering]

Odie wants you to say hello to the twins.

We'll let you say it yourself.

-Hello, Mr. Garfield!

-Hello!

And we wanted to say...
we're sorry.

-We think you really are a cat.

-A really good cat.

Aw, shucks!

Well, you two are going to

grow up to be

pretty good cats yourselves

-[laughter]

-[roars]

Grrr!
[laughter]
[laughter]

You know, Odie, sometimes,

you go through a lot of misery.


And then one picture comes along

that makes it all worthwhile.


[song]

♪Don’t sit in a lonely room♪


♪With fear and with doom and gloom♪


♪The world can become your stage♪


♪If you break out of your cage♪


♪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♪

[African music]

♪Life out in the wild♪

♪Filled with harmony♪


♪That's the way life should be♪


♪Life out in the wild♪

Hey! Hey!
[raven croaking]

Did I get everything

at the market, Garfield?

Yes but not enough of it.

Bread, milk, butter, cheese,

more cheese, more cheese,

more cheese...

[Mrs. Caldron] Tarantula knees,

lizard soup, eye of newt.

I had to buy the frozen kind.

You just can't get

fresh eye of newt these days.


[Jon] More cheese,

more cheese, more cheese...

Oh!

-Oh, hi, Mrs. Cauldron.

-Mr. Arbuckle.

Imagine running into you here.

[Garfield]

You remember Mrs. Cauldron,


the lady

who lives over on Ackerman Lane.

Hmmm...
The witch.
Oh.

[Mrs. Caldron]

This is my niece Abigail.

She's staying with me
while she attends school here.
Nice to meet you, Abigail.

There's no school

around where you live.

It's a special school.
I heard about you, Mr. Arbuckle.

And that's your cat

that sleeps all day

and eats everyone's lasagna.
Guilty as charged.
In fact, we have to get home

so I can help Abigail

with a lesson.

Good day.
I like Mrs. Cauldron.

There are some neighbors

who claim she's a witch

but I know that's ridiculous.
[laughter]

Are you gonna tell me

about the enchanted book,

Aunt Esther?
Just as soon as we get home, dear.
Will you do that laugh for me, Aunt?
For you, anything.
[evil witch laugh]
Witches...what a silly idea.
What a ridiculous...
[evil witch laugh]
A thousand years ago,

there was a witch

named Varicella

who gave her own heart
to Black Magic in exchange
for greater power...
[diabolic laughter]
Consumed with hatred

for the Human race,

the heartless Varicella


searched

for three legendary magical

artifacts.

They were the Mercury Slippers,

the Broom of Sorrows,

and the Lilith Wand.
By combining their powers,

Varicella could then unleash

the Forbidden Moon


a deadly spell that would plunge

the whole world

into eternal darkness,
and turn all Humans
into helpless toads.
[croaks]
Varicella was so wicked
that all the witches agreed
she had to be stopped

before

she could complete the spell.

The Witches banished Varicella
into the pages of a magic
spell book...
My magic spell book.
[scream]
[applause and laughter]

As for the three

magical artifacts,


they were scattered

across the Magic Realm,


so that no one might ever

bring them together again.


[Varicella]

Let me out of this book!

That is why since that very day,
there have been good witches

and there have been

wicked witches.


Cool. Can Varicella

ever break free from her prison?


Only if someone

was ever foolish enough


to use the book's magic

for their own selfish needs...

Auntie, when I grow up,

will I be a good witch

or a wicked witch?


Well, I hope you'll be the best

possible good witch you can be.


Now, I'm going to go

bake some frog muffins.

[the raven croaks]

When can I learn how to cast

some real magic spells?


I want to become

as powerful as Varicella!


Don't worry, Bruce.

I'd never hurt you.

You're my bat.

[Mrs. Caldron] Abigail,

how many times do I have to tell you?


The strongest magic

doesn't come from a wand.

But from the heart, I know.
[disgusted gulp]
[humming a happy tune]
Garfield,

if you think you're going to eat

this entire pizza by yourself,

you're wrong.
I'm right.
[dog barking]

Odie!

Do you want to fetch a stick?

[dog barking]
[car horning]
Go fetch it, boy!
[dog barking]
I know, I know!

Even after three seasons,

he still falls for it.


[Jon]

Odie! Odie!


If Odie doesn't show up

for dinner,


maybe you will have to eat

his half of the pizza, Garfield.

Oh, I suppose I could...
No, it's not fair.

I won't serve dinner

until Odie is at the table.

[growl of frustration]

I am being forced to work

entirely too hard for pizza.


Not that pizza is not worth

some effort, of course.


I'm the most powerful witch

of the whole Magic Realm!

[scream]
[she groans]

♪The choice for me♪


♪Is what to be♪


♪I have to choose♪


♪My fate♪


♪A good and trusted witch♪


♪But maybe I should switch♪


♪For years,

I've always understood♪


♪That bad♪


♪Is not as good♪


♪It's tempting to be devious♪


♪Instead of just as previous♪


♪To use my magic to destroy♪


♪Is something that I could enjoy♪


♪I could be someone to be cheered♪


♪Or someone who was feared♪


♪So which witch will I be?♪


♪The choice is up to me♪

Bruce, come back!
I didn't mean to scare you!

I'll get grounded if I turn up

to school without my familiar!


[Mrs. Caldron]

Abigail!

What's all that racket?
Ready in a second, Auntie!
Zing zang zou!
I have to get Bruce back!
[scream]
Bruce! Please come back!
I'll give you treats...
Oh!

Come back here,

you stupid bat!

[dog barking]
Bruce? Bruce!
It's no use. He's gone.
I'm going to be so grounded.
Unless...
Zimbalo bidou bou!
Oh sorry. Wrong spell.
[croaks]
Bing bam bouh!

Oh come on Abigail,

you can do this!

Where is that pooch?
Odie !
Mimimi mani mowww!
Odie got turned into a bat

and taken away

by Mrs. Cauldron's niece and...


Why am I telling you this?

You saw it, too.

Perfect!
No one will know the difference.
Mimimi mani mowww!
Odie!

[c*ck-a-doodle-do]

[Mrs. Caldron] Abigail,

Time to leave for school!
Here I am, Auntie.
Hop on your broom, my dear.
We can't waste time.
Mrs. Cauldron is a real witch?

I should have figured it out

in season two.


Only a real witch could have

survived a whole episode

with Minerva and Drusilla!

Why can't I find

that transportation spell?

I know where everything is.
[raven croaking]

[raven]

Nevermore.

Ah! There it is!

[Mrs. Caldron]

"Spulchkripia...

Krypteris... Rapispherix!"
Now, remember!
Listen to your cousin Winona!
I will!

And I'll try to be a good witch,

Auntie Esther!

Bye!
[raven croaking]
Odie!

This is my fault for trying

to get his half of the pizza.

That book!

It must have the secret

of how to change him back.

[the floor cracks]
Ouch!
[raven croaking]

I have to go

check on my frog muffins.

They're not for you, Raven.
You eat birdseed.
Nevermore!

There are thousands of spells

in here.


How am I going to find

the one Mrs. Cauldron just used

to send her niece off to school?

[Varicella] I believe you'll find

the spell you're looking for on page .

Oh. Thanks.
Did you just say that?
Nevermore.
That's right. You're a raven.
You just say nevermore.
Who's talking?

[Varicella] Just a friend.

Here...let me help you.

Thanks... Whoever you are.
Whatever you are.
Let's see. "One way trip

to the School

of Witchery & Witchcraft"...

That's the one!
