Anticipating the Sequel
Garfield Why are you still here? Oh! I know! You're waiting for the sequel!
Garfield's Culinary Creativity Unveiled
Garfield My medium is cuisine. My colors are flavors. My palette is my palette, if you will. Dinner is served.
[voiceover; Soon, He's done making food. Though it doesn’t look appetizing]
Vic Wow, son! I didn’t know you could cook.
Garfield Ah, yes. Pasta is my paint and the dinner plate is my canvas. Oh, so that’s where that went.
[as he tries to pull out a piece; puts out a piece with a saltshaker in it; He gives a piece to Vic, who tries it]
Vic I had worse.
[laughs]
Jon Thank you, Garfield. Uh, is he gonna be coming around for dinner often?
[notices Vic eating up]
Garfield Yeah. He's family.
Jon What? Why do I have a take-out bill for 6,000 drone deliveries?!
Apologies and Reflections on Home
Garfield Uh... Well, this is us.
[sighs]
Vic Right. Your home. I just..
Garfield I just wanted to say I’m sorry.
Vic I’m sorry. What are you sorry for?
Garfield For misjudging you.
Vic Oh. Well, thanks. Well, I just wanted to apologize to you for…
Garfield Everything bad that happened to us the last three days?
Vic You know, you had your hand in a few bad decisions back there, too, but... Yeah, I’m sorry for dragging you into my world. This is where you belong here. Here with Jon and... what’s your name again? Odor?
[sighs; to Odie]
A Deal in the Foggy Night
Garfield It was a dark and foggy night. The air was damp and heavier than a broken pipe. On nights like this, you can’t swing a cat without hitting shady characters making shady deals all over town. Oh, but this night was going to be different. Justice was about to be served with a helping of retribution on the side.
[voiceover; Marge flashes headlights at the figure, who flashes his flashlight back. Voiceover]
Marge Malone Is that the package?
[She steps out of the truck]
Garfield It is.
[disguised voice]
Marge Malone Well, we have a deal.
[She whistles and Ethel steps out of the truck]
Garfield No one will come looking for her?
[disguised voice]
Marge Malone Nope. I did what you said. I burned her paperwork, and then shredded it, and burned it some more. It’s like she never existed. Except for the image of her face on millions of dairy products.
Garfield This...never happened.
[disguised voice]
Marge Malone Agreed. Oh, save it, Cat Fancy! I know you planned the milk truck heist and then tried to throw those innocent cats off a train to cover it up. The boys told me everything.
[She leaves with the cage, revealing Jinx inside it. She growls at Marge]

An animated film series based on the iconic lasagna-loving, Monday-hating orange cat, Garfield, and his friends.
