- You notice how every week

I say something different here?

- The prima ballerina

Jetes onto the stage.

The olympic gymnast

Finishes his routine

With a full back layout.

Here we are in the final round

Of the world international

Hopscotch competition.

- Garfield, why can't you

Just nuzzle like other cats?

- You deserve better.

- Garfield!

Look what you've done!

- What I've done?

Look what you've done!

- Let's get outta here!

[ Barks ]

- Hurry!

We're being attacked by yogurt

And it isn't soft or frozen!

- I can't get the door open!

The whole house

Is filled with yogurt!

[ Chattering ]

- Boy, what luck.

Jon finally gets

Some decent quantity

Of food in the house

And it had to be yogurt.

- Mr. Arbuckle,

Do you know your house

Is filled with yogurt?

- Yeah, I kind of had a hunch.

- How'd this happen?

- It's all garfield's fault.

- It's not!

Liar, liar, pants on fire!

- I'll tell you

How it happened.

I remember every detail of it.

We were in the car

This morning...

Are you hungry again, garfield?

- I haven't had anything

To eat in 10 minutes!

I demand food! Now!

- Oh, I'll stop at

The first place

To eat I come to.

I hope you like it.

Here it is, soft frozen yogurt.

Oh, I do so hope it pleases you.

Garfield was his usual

Ill-behaved self.

- Yogurt? Yuck!

Pooey! Yuck!

Ickey-poo! Blah!

But it's food, sort of.

I'll eat it.

Carry me.

- I took garfield inside

Trying to please him,

But the prices were

A little steep.

$7 For yogurt?

- Humph, you can

Get real food for $7.

- You know, if we

Made yogurt at home,

I could save a lot of money.

Give it to the poor

And needy people.

- You're always so cheap

When it comes to my stomach.

- I had to add just

The right ingredients

So the yogurt would

Be just right for garfield.

[ Doorbell rings ]

- My, who could that be?

- He never makes enough food.

- Garfield, look what

You've done!

- What I've done?

Look what you've done!

- Let's get outta here!

[ Barks ]

- Hurry!

We're being attacked by yogurt

And it isn't soft or frozen!

- I can't get the door open!

The whole house

Is filled with yogurt!

[ Chattering ]

- I remember exactly

How it happened.

It was all garfield's fault.

- Oh, you fibber!

That's not how it happened.

Let me tell you the true story.

I remember every bit of it.

I was behaving myself as usual.

- Humph, hungry again,

Garfield?

- Oh, I haven't had anything

To eat in a day or two,

But, hey, it's all right.

- I'll stop at

The first place

To eat I come to

And you'll like it!

Here it is.

Soft frozen yogurt.

That's all you're getting.

- Well, I'm not wild

About yogurt,

But I try to be polite.

Oh, goodie, soft frozen yogurt.

Wait. I can walk.

He took me inside and

I immediately noticed

That the prices

Were a little steep.

- $7 For yogurt?

- You can get real food for $7.

- You know, if we made

Yogurt at home,

I could save a lot of money

And spend it on selfish things.

- Look, you don't have

To spend a lot on feeding me.

Jon didn't know

How to make yogurt,

So he just threw anything

He had lying around

Into the pot.

[ Doorbell rings ]

- Oh, who could that be?

- Oh, I'm worried about this.

Jon wants so much to please me.

Maybe some salt

Will help this yogurt.

But it was too little, too late.

- Garfield, look what

You've done!

- What I've done?

Look what you've done!

- Let's get outta here!

[ Barks ]

- Hurry!

We're being attacked by yogurt

And it isn't soft or frozen!

- I can't get this door open!

The whole house

Is filled with yogurt!

[ Chattering ]

- And that's exactly

How it happened.

You believe me, right?

What do you mean,

You don't believe me?

I'll prove it to you.

- What do you mean,

You don't believe me?

- Well, I just said it sounded

A little suspicious.

- I'll prove it to you.

- Odie, you saw what went on.

Didn't it happen exactly

The way I said?

- Uh-uh.

- Odie, you were there.

Didn't everything happen

The way I said?

- Uh-uh.

- Well, maybe

I exaggerated a little.

- I agree. Maybe you did, too.

- We've got to find some way

To get rid of all this yogurt.

- Leave it to me.

[ Chattering ]

- Step right up, folks!

All the yogurt you can eat.

One little dollar.

Thank you, sir.

Here's your spoon.

[ Laugh ]

Garfield, this was
a terrific idea!

We'll run that fancy place

Out of business

And we'll get rid

Of all the yogurt!

- Not only that,

But now I can go out

And get some real food.

- Garfield, it's hot

And humid today!

The conditions are perfect!

I'm getting a front row seat.

I've been waiting all year

For this!

- Silence, please.

We're watching

The linoleum curl.

- Orson goes on vacation?

Oh, no!

Is that what this cartoon

Is about?

That's what it says.

Orson goes on vacation.

Oh, this!

This is a catastrophe!

[ Stuttering ]

C-a-t-a-s-t-r-o-phe!

[ Humming ]

- Why is this cartoon called

Orson goes on vacation?

- Maybe because orson

Is going on vacation.

- Oh, impeccable logic,

I suppose.

But who will be in charge

While you are gone?

- I'm only going for one night

And I've told everyone that,

If any problems arise,

Wade duck is in charge.

- Oh, well,

That's good to know.

- I'll see you

Tomorrow afternoon.

- Nothing will go wrong

Because wade duck is in charge.

It is a good thing we have

Wade duck to...

I'm wade duck!

Help! Wrong person in charge!

Oh, orson, wait!

Come back!

[ Humming ]

- Orson, you cannot put

Wade duck in charge!

I am wade duck!

- You're wrong.

- I'm not wrong!

I am so wade duck!

I checked my driver's license.

Here, see?

- No, you're wrong that

You can't be in charge.

Anyone can be in charge.

- I'm not anyone!

I am wade duck!

- Wade, give me one good reason

Why I can't go away

And leave you in charge.

- Your bus is leaving.

- Hey, wait!

Wait for me! Hey!

- Me? In charge?

I think this has

Just become one of those

Science fiction cartoon shows.

Wait a minute!

Orson's only gonna

Be gone one day.

How much can go wrong

In one day?

Watch it!

- I'll get you, you worm!

Fight like a man, you worm!

- I have to remain calm.

After all, I am in charge.

- Come on, guys.

Orson's away.

Let's get ourselves

Some vegetables.

- The new water line

Goes over there, not here!

- You're like always

So disagreeable.

- Wrong!

I never disagree with you!

- You just disagreed with me!

- I did not!

Wade, you're in charge.

- Yeah, like you

Settle this, man.

- Tell him he's wrong

That I disagree with him!

- Like my sister's
wrong. Tell her, wade!

- I am not!

- Am too!

- Am not!

- Stop! Stop!

- The duck's upset, man.

- No, he isn't!

- This being in charge is

Getting to be most disturbing.

[ Chickens clucking ]

[ Laughs ]

- That wasn't funny, roy.

Wade, you're in charge.

Roy dropped a tomato on me!

- Sheldon was late,

So I thought this way

He could catch up.

[ Laughs ]

- Not funny!

- Aw, can't you take a joke?

- Wade, tell him
to leave me alone!

- Wade, tell him

He has no sense of humor.

- Wade, tell him he's a...

- No! I cannot handle this!

Oh, no, it's the...

[ Stutters ]

- Weasel?

- Yeah, yeah, yeah!

What you said! Help!

Weasel!

Oh, no!

Vegetable thievery!

And I am in charge!

I order you to replace

Those zucchinis

Where you found them at once!

- No.

- In that case, then,

Get those vegetables outta here.

- Let's get outta here,

Brothers.

- Like the new water

Main's all installed, sis.

- Uh-huh, that's

What you think.

- You won't get away this time.

I'm coming after you, worm.

[ Laughing ]

[ Rumbling ]

- Hey, what's going on here?

- Help! Vertical flood!

- Help!

- Dropping tomatoes on

Someone is not funny.

- What's that?

[ Shouting ]

- Vegetables on the head

Is so funny!

- Hey, you're right.

That is funny.

- See? I told you

That was a bad place

For the water line!

- Let me turn down the h2o.

Hey, weasel crossing!

- Roy, the weasel

Stole some chickens!

- What do you want me

To do about it?

I'm a chef's salad.

[ Grunts ]

- Maybe you're right, sis.

That is a bad place

For the water line.

- I disagree.

It's a fine place.

- Still think vegetables on

The head is funny, roy?

- It's all in the delivery.

- Gee, I wonder

Where wade went.

He's supposed to be in charge.

- Oh, worry.

Oh, dread.

Is it tomorrow yet?

- Well, wade, I'm back and

Everything seems fine.

You did a good job

Being in charge.

- I did?

Oh, I did, I did, yeah.

I was in charge and

I was very much in charge.

- And next month, I'm gonna

Go away for a whole week

And leave you in charge.

- Yes!

You are going away for

A we...

Maybe you could give

Someone else a chance

To be in charge?

- This was such

A surprise, marian.

How long has it been since

We've seen each other?

- Years, but when I came

To town to get married,

I knew I had

To call my cousin jon.

- We have a lot of

Catching up to do

And I want you to meet my dog,

Odie, and my cat, garfield.

Garfield must not be around now.

- How can you tell?

- Because there's food here

And we're eating it.

Who's this guy

You're marrying tomorrow?

- His name is harold jon.

Isn't that a coincidence?

His last name is the same

As your first name.

- You see, odie,

When I order a hotdog

With everything on it,

I want everything on it,

Including a hamburger.

- Uh-huh.

- And I'd be honored

To be an usher

At your wedding tomorrow,

Marian.

- Oh, jon, that's wonderful.

You'll love harold.

He has a great sense of humor.

- Hmm?

- Beautiful woman kissing jon?

What is wrong with this picture?

Come, watson,

We must investigate.

- I can't wait to see you

At the wedding tomorrow.

Just think, I'll be marian jon.

- Odie, did you hear that?

She's marrying jon!

Tomorrow!

No, I didn't hear that.

She didn't say it.

Not true!

- I can't wait to see you.

You'll be a beautiful bride.

- I heard that!

Odie, it's true!

Jon is getting married!

- Aww.

- Odie!

[ Humming ]

- Goodnight, garfield.

Gotta get up early

Tomorrow morning.

I don't want to be late

To the wedding chapel.

- Oh, maybe it won't be so bad.

It'll be two people

To cook for me instead of one.

[ Yawns ]

But they'll probably have a kid!

Maybe two kids!

What'll that be like?

- Daddy, jonny's being

Mean to me again!

- Am not.

- Am too.

- Am not!

- Am too!

- Not! Not!

- Enough already, you two!

Here's what I want you to do.

- Send them to zurich.

Give them to the martians.

Just don't tell them

To play with the kitty cat.

- Go play with the kitty cat.

- Oh, help me!

Somebody help me!

- There you are, kitty.

Would you like to play

A nice game?

- No, absolutely not!

No way! No games!

No!

- Good.

We'll play spin the bottle.

- No!

Not spin the bottle!

Anything but spin the bottle!

Help! Feeble cries of help!

- And now it's time

To spin the bottle.

- No!

I don't wanna be shaken well

Before serving!

I think I've just been poured.

- I wanna play

With the kitty cat.

- No, no, you don't.

I'm a bad sport.

- Let's play teeter-totter.

- No! Anything

But teeter-totter!

I'd rather play

Spin the bottle

Than teeter-totter!

I don't wanna

Play teeter-totter!

- Here we go.

- I hate playing teeter-totter.

I really hate it.

You have no idea

How much I dislike this.

- Let's play more games!

- Let's play. Play hearts!

Mah jong?

- No! No!

Jon, no!

Why did you have to marry her?

Why? Why?

Why? Why? Why?

Why?

- I have a wedding

At dawn, odie.

See you later.

[ Whimpers ]

- Did jon leave

To get married yet?

- Uh-huh.

- We've gotta stop

This wedding, odie.

Come on.

- And do you, marian arbuckle,

Take harold jon to be

Your lawfully wedded husband,

To have and to hold?

- I do.

- If there be anyone present

Who can show cause

Why this couple

Should not be married,

Let him speak now or forever

Hold his peace.

- Stop! This man is my da-da!

- Garfield?

What are you...

- I'm his baby

And you'd have

To take care of me

And feed me and, boy,

Do I eat a lot. Watch this.

[ Clamoring ]

- What is going on here?

What is the meaning of this?

- What are you doing?

You're ruining

Marian's wedding to harold!

- Marian can't marry harold!

What about me?

What about...

Gosh, guess the joke's

On me, huh?

- Cousin marian,

I don't how to apologize!

- Jon, is that your cat?

He's so funny.

[ Laugh ]

- I loved it!

This is a wedding

We'll never forget!

- I told you harold

Had a great sense of humor.

- Let's get on with this,

Could we?

[ Laughs ]

- If you insist.

- You two stay out here

Until the wedding is over.

You can baby-sit

Marian's cousins.

- Well, jon's not

Getting married

And I didn't cause

Too much trouble.

[ Whimpers ]

- Hey, it worked out

And now everything's fine.

- Hey, there's a kitty cat!

- Oh, let's play with him!

- Yeah, I wanna

Play with the kitty.

[ Both talking at once ]

[ Sighs ]
