protecting my turf...
but, uh,
I don't hate the guy.
I understand Happy
has a big surprise for us.
A special treat.
What have you got for us, Hap?
Ah, guten Morgen, Chris.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I have been working
with a very special new friend...
and I would like
to introduce him to all of you.
Odieschnitzel!
Lookee here!
It's Odie!
And he's safe and sound.
Although, he seems to have found
an alternative lifestyle.
He still can't dance.
Well, this gets me off the hook
with Jon and the gang.
- Now I'm gonna be the hero.
- That's one talented dog.
Oh, I'm glad you think so, Chris,
because I have a little announcement to make.
Old Happy Chapman
and Odieschnitzel...
are going to be climbing aboard
that New Amsterdam Limited at 3:00 p. M...
bound to New York City,
where we have the opportunity...
to be regular contributors
on Good Day, New York.
Huh? That's his last name...
Schnitzel?
Thank you for all your help yesterday.
You were... You were great.
Jon, Odie's on TV,
and he's wearing lederhosen.
L-I'm sorry.
Garfield, not now.
Um, I upped the reward
to, um, $200.
And, uh, I'm going to put up
some more posters tomorrow.
He's clog dancing, I think,
wearing lederhosen.
I'm sorry.
Garfield, not now.
- Oh, you're gonna miss it.
- I'm sorry, Liz. I'll call you later.
Garfield's
being... Garfield.
Do I have to bark
like Lassie?
Come on.
Humor me, would ya?
Arf. Arf. Arf.
Quickly!
While we're young.
Today! Let's go!
Be happy.
Oh, you're gonna miss this. He's the small one.
The small one in the guy's hand.
Garfield, I'm not in the mood.
You know, it's never good
when you turn off my TV.
And this may be
the worst ever.
Odie's not ready.
H-He's months of positive reinforcement
away from consistently performing.
Happy, you promised
you'd never use that.
I mean, that collar
is inhumane.
This collar...
is the dog's future.
Do you have a problem
with that?
- No.
- No.
Now we'll see how smart
you really are.
Happy Chapman. Happy Chapman.
Happy Chapman.
Not now, Garfield.
Jon, you're denser
than ever.
I gotta think outside the box here.
Hey, the box!
Wait a second.
My box... My box
had something on it.
Let's see. AppleJacks.
Frosted Flakes. Cocoa Puffs.
Kibbly Kat.
Yes, there it is.
Telegraph Tower. That's where they make
The Happy Chapman Show.
Yeah. But how far away
can that be?
Maybe...
Hmm, a paw?
Apaw and a half maybe.
This is a done deal. I can do this.
No!
Can't do this.
Reached physical limits.
Shouldn't have tried it
without snacks.
Must go back and reload.
Jenny, how are you? Welcome to the show.
Mmm! Mmm! Mmm!
Mmm. Mmm.
Mmm.
Ah, and that's the sign
that the tank is full.
I can do this. Beyond this intersection
is just another intersection.
And another and another.
On the other hand, I wonder if there's
any meat loafleft in the fridge.
No. Now's not the time
for a plate of meat loaf.
Now's the time
for a plate of courage.
Ladies and gentlemen,
Garfield has left the cul-de-sac.
He is trampling out
the vintage where the grapes
of wrath are stored
He has...
Now that's more my style.
Oh, taxi.
Step on it, will you, driver?
No, Odie's not a hound dog.
Yes, I'm sure.
No, I don't want
another dog.
Thanks anyway.
Garfield, lunchtime.
I made your favorite...
lasagna.
Garfield!
Garfield!
Garfield, where are you?
Can anyone direct me
to the pink building...
that's shown on the back
of the Kibbly Kat box?
Uh, it's the one right by
the blue-and-orange tree.
Well, this doesn't feel
pink building-ish.
- Hello?
- Now where you going? Oh, what is that?
- Uh-oh, rats.
- Come on! Come on!
- Rats the size of rats.
- Come on, kids.
Is that big orange blob a cat?
Hey, now, why am I
being surrounded here?
Some of my best friends are vermin.
Finally, some meat.
Meat? No, it's not meat.
I'm... They measured.
It's 100% body fat.
No nutritional value whatsoever.
Hey, body fat's
good with us.
- Mmm.
