Short filmTranscript
00:19Good morning, John.
00:20Sorry to disturb you.
00:22I know you have a busy social calendar,
00:24but if you will be so kind as to go to the kitchen
00:27and fix me a huge breakfast,
00:28I will allow you to come back to bed and finish your sleep.
00:41Rise and shine, John Arbuckle.
00:43It's time to serve your nation as you serve your fellow man.
00:45Yes, it's time to serve them pancakes.
00:47Pancakes the size of Australia.
00:49And coffee. Yes, John, coffee.
00:51We wouldn't be the great nation we are today
00:53if it weren't for coffee.
00:54So do your patriotic duty, John Arbuckle,
00:56and fix me breakfast.
01:05I wonder if people with goldfish have this problem.
01:15I trust breakfast met with your satisfaction.
01:20It was filling.
01:22What about those pancakes?
01:24Next time, a little less pan, a little more cake, okay?
01:28Well, stomach,
01:29I guess it's time for our early-mid-morning nap.
01:36Check that.
01:37It's time to abuse the dog.
01:45Kids, don't try this at home.
01:48Hello, what's this?
01:50Take Garfield to vets today.
01:53Oh, no, not the vet!
01:57John can't take me to the vet.
01:59That's inhumane.
02:01The vet thinks she knows what's good for me.
02:03Good for her.
02:04But that's bad for me,
02:05because what's bad is good for me.
02:07But if I go to the vet and that's bad,
02:09she'll prescribe what's good for me,
02:10and that's not good.
02:12Maybe if today disappeared,
02:15John will forget about his little note.
02:18Here, Odie.
02:19Wednesdays are good and good for you.
02:22Hello, Odie.
02:24Hello, hello?
02:25What's this?
02:28Tomorrow is Thanksgiving.
02:31Do you see that, Odie?
02:33Tomorrow is Thanksgiving.
02:34That's the day people celebrate having food
02:37by eating as much of it as possible.
02:39Huh?
02:39Yes, that's the day people try to eat
02:42every turkey, pumpkin, and cranberry
02:44on the face of the earth.
02:45It's a tradition.
02:46And you know how I love tradition.
02:53Oh, John.
02:56Nice calendar.
02:57Thanksgiving.
02:58Food.
02:59Eat.
03:00Tradition.
03:00Yes, I know.
03:01Tomorrow is Thanksgiving,
03:02which reminds me,
03:03we had better go to the grocery store
03:05to get lots of good things to eat.
03:08I'm with you.
03:09Do the mashed potato.
03:11Do the candy yam.
03:13Do the funky turkey,
03:14cause it's time to jam.
03:16If you don't wanna dance,
03:17baby, that's all right.
03:19Do some nonstop shopping.
03:21Work up an appetite.
03:24Make your Thanksgiving one more meal.
03:26Cause the more you eat,
03:29the more grateful
03:32you are gonna feel.
03:41Now this is what Thanksgiving is all about.
03:44Thanksgiving is cooking.
03:46Thanksgiving is pie filling.
03:48Thanksgiving is coleslaw.
03:49Try carefully, John.
03:51Don't wanna bruise my tongue clots.
03:53Wait a minute.
03:54Where are we going, John?
03:56This isn't the way home.
03:57We're going to the vet, Garfield.
04:15Now just relax.
04:16Want me to relax?
04:18Take me to Hawaii.
04:18I'm only bringing you
04:19to the vet for a checkup.
04:21Check out, John.
04:22You're only bringing me here
04:23to check out the vet.
04:24Why don't you marry her?
04:25Then she can make house calls.
04:26Next.
04:28Hi, Liz.
04:29How have you been?
04:29That's Dr. Wilson to you.
04:31Put the cat here.
04:38So, Liz.
04:40That's doctor to you?
04:42So, Dr. Liz.
04:44How about that weather?
04:45That's a rather personal question,
04:46don't you think, Mr. Arbuckle?
04:48I can see this relationship
04:50is off to a roaring stop.
04:54How about a date?
04:55I'd sooner die.
04:56Well, don't do that.
04:58Mr. Arbuckle, please.
05:00You can call me John.
05:01I can call out for pizza, too,
05:02but I'm not going to call you that.
05:04Call me what?
05:04John!
05:05No, made you say it, made you say it.
05:08Don't blame John.
05:10Snappy repartee does not come easily
05:12to a dip.
05:12Okay, I'm giving you
05:14one last chance.
05:15Doctor.
05:15Doctor, will you go out with me?
05:17No.
05:18Okay, one more chance.
05:20Never.
05:21Okay, I can take a hint.
05:23I'll just stand here.
05:26Quietly.
05:27I'll just stand here
05:29and hold my breath
05:30until you say you go out with me.
05:39Oh, that'll impress her.
05:45Well, Mr. Arbuckle,
05:47I have examined your cat
05:48and I have some good news
05:49and some bad news.
05:50I hate this part.
05:52The good news is
05:53your cat is healthy as a horse.
05:55Hear that, John?
05:56The woman is a great physician.
05:58A specialist.
05:59The bad news is
05:59he's also big as a horse.
06:01He'll have to go on a diet.
06:03Quack.
06:04She's a quack.
06:05Get me out of here.
06:06This can't be happening to me.
06:08I don't do it yet.
06:09Low fat?
06:10Fat is some of my best...
06:11Sugar?
06:12Starch?
06:13Without them,
06:13I'll be lonely.
06:15Exercises for sweat.
06:16I'll be cramped.
06:18Fibers for sweaters.
06:19Plenty of water.
06:19Water's for a birdbath.
06:21Larity of quality
06:22of the gas nutrition
06:23determined to quality
06:24for the rest of life.
06:25Without food,
06:26there's no life as we know it.
06:28You'll take good care of him
06:28and he'll be around
06:29for a long, long time.
06:31Yeah!
06:36Okay.
06:37I'll go out with you.
06:40Really?
06:41I can't stand to see
06:42a dumb animal suffer.
06:44Great!
06:46Tomorrow, my place,
06:47I'll fix a big Thanksgiving dinner.
06:49You're gonna love it!
06:51Well, at least we won't
06:52be seen in public together.
06:53And then this weekend,
06:54underwear...
06:55Don't push it, Buster!
06:57Okay.
06:57Mr. Arbuckle!
06:59Yes?
06:59You forgot your cat.
07:00My cat.
07:01Oh, my cat!
07:11Got a date with my dream check.
07:14Got to impress her
07:14and make her my girl.
07:17Oh, woe is me.
07:19I'm being put on a diet
07:20and I'm gonna die.
07:23Here, Garfield.
07:24Have some food.
07:24According to your diet,
07:26you get this.
07:28That's it?
07:29That's all?
07:30Just one scraggly piece of lettuce?
07:32Oh, I'm sorry, Garfield.
07:34That's not what you get.
07:35Well, I should hope not.
07:36You get half a leaf of lettuce.
07:38That's better.
07:49I've been on this diet
07:50only ten minutes
07:51and I can tell
07:51I've already lost something.
07:54A sense of humor.
08:13A-ha!
08:14Caught you!
08:15Yeah, well,
08:16what did you do?
08:17Booby trap the refrigerator
08:18or something?
08:19Garfield,
08:20I'd like you to meet
08:20my new diet monitor,
08:21Odie the Fierce.
08:27Odie will be watching
08:28your every move
08:29and every time
08:30you go off your diet,
08:31he'll blow his whistle
08:31and I will come running.
08:35That is the dumbest thing
08:37I've ever heard of
08:37in my life.
08:39Who's gonna put an end
08:40to this charade
08:40right now?
08:47Someday you're going
08:48to thank me
08:48for this, Garfield.
08:51You're in desperate trouble
08:53mister.
08:54Well, might as well
08:55see how the old
08:56diet's going.
08:58Hello, I'm RX2,
09:00your talking scale.
09:02I can tell you
09:03your weight,
09:04your fortune,
09:05or just about anything
09:06else you would like
09:07to know.
09:08Okay, smarty pants.
09:10What's my name?
09:11Judging by your weight,
09:13you are Orson Welles.
09:15Great.
09:16A voice chip
09:17with a cruel streak.
09:18May I have
09:19your autograph, please?
09:21Oh, shut up.
09:22Why is everybody
09:23picking on me?
09:25Well, what's wrong
09:25with being large-boned
09:27anyway?
09:27I've seen
09:28all your movies.
09:30Hey, how would you like
09:31to have your battery
09:32removed?
09:33I wouldn't like that,
09:34Mr. Welles.
09:35It's not like
09:36I'm all that overweight.
09:38I can still see my feet.
09:40I've seen
09:41Citizen Kane
09:42eight times.
09:44All right,
09:44that's it.
09:45You're history.
09:52Rosebud!
10:01Odie!
10:03Oh, Odie!
10:05Yoo-hoo!
10:06Are you anywhere
10:07around here, boy?
10:09It's snack time.
10:36The lack of food
10:38must be making me
10:38hallucinate.
10:49Good morning, Garfield.
10:51Sleep well?
10:53Well,
10:54aren't we nasty today?
10:55Save your energy, Garfield.
10:57Nothing you do
10:58can spoil my good mood.
10:59It's Thanksgiving
11:00and I have a dinner date
11:01with a dream boat.
11:03Oh, which reminds me.
11:04She'll be here
11:05in about three hours,
11:06so I better get
11:06the old turkey
11:07out of the freezer.
11:12Gonna fix dinner
11:13for the girl I love.
11:19Okay,
11:19first we start
11:20with the bird.
11:21Let's see here.
11:21Remove bird from freezer
11:22at least 24 hours
11:23before cooking.
11:25Well, I'm sure
11:26that's just a minor
11:27technicality.
11:29Yum, yum.
11:30Turkey on a stick.
11:31Remove giblets
11:32from cavity
11:33and stuff
11:33with one cup
11:34of prepared stuffing.
11:35Oh, well,
11:36you can't believe
11:37everything you read.
11:38I can hardly bear
11:40to watch.
11:41Place in roasting pan,
11:42breast side up.
11:43Rub skin with butter.
11:45Hmm, well,
11:46I don't see what good
11:47that'll do,
11:47but okay.
11:50Cover with foil
11:51and roast
11:52at 325 degrees
11:53for five and a half hours.
11:57I guess I'll just
11:58have to speed
11:58things up a bit.
12:00500 degrees.
12:02That was easy.
12:03Okay,
12:03now for the vegetables.
12:05Let's see.
12:05Corn,
12:06broccoli,
12:06Brussels sprouts,
12:07turnips,
12:08squash.
12:09Be still,
12:10my beating heart.
12:11Add water
12:11and done.
12:13Did your mom
12:14and grandma talk?
12:15I always thought
12:16preparing a Thanksgiving
12:17meal was tough.
12:18Ha!
12:18I'll get back
12:19to this later.
12:20I'd better
12:21spruce myself up a bit.
12:24Thanksgiving.
12:26Humbug.
12:27What good is it
12:28if you're on a diet?
12:34If I can't enjoy
12:35Thanksgiving,
12:37nobody will.
12:42You know,
12:42old buddy,
12:43if you want something
12:44in this world,
12:45you just gotta reach out
12:46and grab it.
12:47Know what I mean?
12:47I mean,
12:48I'm a man, right?
12:50Well,
12:50you're a wimpy man,
12:51but yeah,
12:52you're a man.
12:52And Liz,
12:53she's a woman, right?
12:54No, John,
12:55she's a veterinarian
12:56and a cruel one at that.
12:58It's time this relationship
12:58with Liz got off the ground.
13:00She's the one I want
13:01and by golly,
13:01I intend to get her.
13:02Careful,
13:03you're starting to sweat
13:04off your shaving cream.
13:05I'm going to win
13:06her heart, Garfield.
13:07You'll see.
13:08I'm in control
13:08of my own destiny.
13:10Ah!
13:11Ever considered
13:11putting someone else
13:12in charge of your destiny?
13:15Garfield,
13:15I need help.
13:17Understatement of the year.
13:18As you know,
13:19clothes make the man.
13:20I need your frank opinion
13:21on what to wear for dinner.
13:23How about
13:24the formal look?
13:27Semi-formal?
13:29Informal?
13:31High roller?
13:32The sporty look?
13:34Disco John?
13:35Beast?
13:36The rugged individualist?
13:44I'm running out of clothes,
13:45Garfield.
13:46You got any suggestions?
13:47Yeah, try dressing as yourself.
13:49Maybe if I just dressed as myself.
13:50Guy has a shaky grasp
13:52of the obvious.
13:53How's this?
13:54Bingo!
13:55With one teeny tiny
13:57little exception.
13:59Oh boy,
13:59she's here, Garfield.
14:01She actually came!
14:02When it comes to insecurity,
14:04John's a heavyweight.
14:08Liz!
14:08Nice to see you.
14:09Nice polka dot
14:10boxer shorts.
14:12Oops.
14:16Thanks for telling me
14:17I wasn't wearing
14:18any pants, Garfield.
14:19Oh, sure.
14:20Blame it on the pet.
14:21Come on.
14:22I want you to be nice
14:23to my dinner guest.
14:24First I have to be
14:25a fashion consultant,
14:26now I have to be an actor.
14:29Come in, come in,
14:30my dear.
14:31Welcome to my humble avode.
14:33It's not much,
14:33but we like to call it home.
14:35Yeah.
14:36Come in, Doc.
14:37Tell me,
14:37are you fond
14:38of indigestion?
14:40Hmm, something smells.
14:42Oh, that's just
14:43a little Thanksgiving dinner
14:44I whipped up.
14:45Oh, I was afraid of that.
14:48Make yourself comfortable, Liz.
14:49I need to slip
14:50into the kitchen
14:51and take care
14:51of a few last-minute details.
14:54Yeah,
14:54like finding something to eat.
14:57So, Garfield,
14:58how's the diet?
14:59I see you're still
15:00the size of an aircraft carrier.
15:04Well, as long as you're here,
15:05I might as well
15:06check you for any deficiencies.
15:07I don't want you
15:07to become anemic.
15:09Don't forget
15:09beri-beri, rickets
15:11and scurvy too, Doc.
15:12Sometimes people
15:13who suffer from
15:14vitamin deficiencies
15:15as a result of dieting
15:16can become listless.
15:19They can also be
15:20irritable
15:21or nervous.
15:23Sometimes they suffer
15:24from an uncontrollable
15:25twitch
15:26or even dementia.
15:28They may even have
15:29difficulty in breathing.
15:35You know, Garfield,
15:37maybe this diet
15:38has been too hard on you.
15:39I'd rather see you
15:40fat and healthy
15:41than like this.
15:42Maybe I could let you
15:43skip the diet
15:43for right now
15:44and start you
15:44with some mild exercise
15:46instead.
15:47Would you like that?
15:53I'm free,
15:54I'm free,
15:55I can eat.
15:55Oh, joy,
15:56oh, rapture,
15:57oh, no.
16:04Hey, John,
16:05another frozen dinner?
16:08Everything is ruined,
16:09Garfield.
16:10What can I do?
16:11I'm doomed.
16:12Liz will never
16:12speak to me again.
16:23Very funny, Garfield.
16:24I can't feed Liz this.
16:26John, you nitwit.
16:28Well, this is
16:29Grandma's favorite record.
16:30Should I play it for Liz?
16:33This old pillow
16:34Grandma crocheted
16:35is comforting, Garfield,
16:36but it still doesn't
16:37solve the problem
16:37with dinner.
16:40I'm not cold, Garfield.
16:41Why did you drag out
16:42the sweater Grandma
16:43made for me last Christmas?
16:44Last chance.
16:48I know.
16:49I'll call Grandma.
16:51She'll know what to do.
16:52Oh, John,
16:53you're a genius.
16:55If he had a brain,
16:56he'd be dangerous.
17:02Thanks, Grandma.
17:03You're a lifesaver.
17:04See you in a few.
17:13Have cooking utensils,
17:14we'll travel.
17:15Ha, ha, ha, ha.
17:17Well, what he's just
17:18standing there for, boy.
17:19Get in there and spark
17:20your young lady friend
17:21and leave the kitchen
17:22to Grandma.
17:23Shoo!
17:23Shoo!
17:25Now, where's the patient?
17:27How's dinner coming?
17:28Great.
17:29Uh, just great.
17:30It's, uh, simmering,
17:31or whatever food does.
17:33Mm-hmm.
17:33Can I give you a hand?
17:34Nope.
17:35Uh, thanks.
17:36You know,
17:36one of the things
17:37I always like to do
17:38for Thanksgiving
17:39right before the meal
17:40is to reminisce
17:41on the real meaning
17:42of Thanksgiving.
17:43Are you serious?
17:44Just what is Thanksgiving?
17:46Is it a day
17:46just like any other day?
17:47No?
17:48Is it an object
17:49like my old trusty chair here?
17:51No!
17:51Thanksgiving is a holiday.
17:53A harvest festival, really.
17:54A day for giving thanks
17:56for our blessings.
17:57You are serious.
17:59How's my favorite
18:00kitty cat today?
18:02Better,
18:02now that you're here, Grandma.
18:04Oh, you're looking
18:05a little thin.
18:06Isn't that grandson
18:07of mine feeding you?
18:09Grandma, I love you.
18:10Don't ever leave us.
18:11My, my, my, my, my.
18:14What have we here?
18:15Looks like something
18:16the cat dragged in.
18:17Ha, ha, ha!
18:18If you'll pardon
18:19the expression, Garfield.
18:21Well, I love a challenge,
18:22and this sure as heck
18:23looks like one.
18:24Stand back, Garfield!
18:26This is war!
18:27Now, the first Thanksgiving
18:29was in 1621.
18:31The Pilgrims had had
18:31a good harvest,
18:32so Governor Bradford
18:33declared a three-day feast,
18:34you see.
18:35They invited their
18:36Indian friends
18:36to join them,
18:37and everyone brought food.
18:38There was venison,
18:40turkey, duck, fish,
18:49and Indian pudding.
18:51Ever had Grandma's
18:52famous turkey croquette,
18:53Garfield?
18:54Nothing fun.
18:55Go, Grandma, go.
18:57There you are.
18:58We'll just put together
18:59a little white sauce.
19:00A bit of parsley,
19:00dash lemon juice,
19:01and grated onion.
19:02Now we'll add our turkey
19:03to the white sauce.
19:03Make some brown roller mixture
19:04in the bread
19:05and a deep fat fry.
19:06Deep fat fry.
19:08Deep fat fry.
19:09Music to my ears.
19:11Interestingly enough,
19:12it was Abraham Lincoln
19:13who officially proclaimed
19:14the last Thursday in November
19:15as Thanksgiving
19:16in 1863, you see.
19:18Now, get this.
19:18In Canada,
19:19they celebrate Thanksgiving, too,
19:21but it's not on
19:22the fourth Thursday of November.
19:23They celebrate it
19:25on the second Monday
19:26in October.
19:26Isn't that wild?
19:27I had no idea.
19:30How about some sweet potatoes?
19:33Oh, now, come on, Garfield.
19:35You never had
19:36Grandma's sweet potatoes.
19:37This is true.
19:39A cup of butter,
19:39a cup of brown sugar,
19:41and some marshmallows.
19:43I'm starting to like them already.
19:44Now, guess where it'd be
19:45if you were to bow
19:46before a shrine of candles
19:48and offer a bowl of rice.
19:50Any guesses?
19:51It'd be in Japan,
19:52and they call it
19:53Labor Thanksgiving Day.
19:54Have you ever seen
19:55my split-second cranberry sauce?
19:58Too late, you played, Garfield.
20:02And now,
20:03for the piece de resistance,
20:06pumpkin pie.
20:08Skip the piece of resistance,
20:09just give me a piece of pie.
20:22Nice touch.
20:25Now, I'll just slip quiet
20:26out the door, Garfield.
20:28You tell that young lady of his
20:30that she couldn't find
20:30a better man than John,
20:32and she better not blow it,
20:33or she'll have to answer to me.
20:35Oh, then, Garfield,
20:37eat a piece of pie for me.
20:44They just don't make them
20:46like that anymore.
20:46And in England,
20:48their Thanksgiving is called
20:50Harvest Home Day.
20:51Now, in Bolivia,
20:54I think things should just about be ready.
20:59Where am I?
21:00Dinner is servèd, madame.
21:08Oh, John, I'm so impressed.
21:11So am I.
21:13It's a quiet celebration
21:16with family and friends.
21:19A time for counting blessings,
21:22a time to make amends.
21:25There's a feeling all around you.
21:27You can hold it in your hands
21:30and pass it round the table
21:32for all to understand.
21:35Though tomorrow
21:36may take us far away.
21:44Let's stick together now.
21:47Let's find a way somehow
21:50to feel Thanksgiving
21:54every day.
22:00That was a wonderful meal.
22:02Thanks for inviting me, John.
22:04Same time next year?
22:05Mm-hmm.
22:06That'd be nice.
22:07I'll be here before the meal,
22:08but after the history lesson.
22:17Well, it was a great day.
22:20And judging by the looks of you two
22:22and your bellies,
22:23I'd say you had a great day, too.
22:25I know one thing I'm thankful for today.
22:28Grandma.
22:30Well, let's take a little walk
22:31and try to work off
22:32some of this food, boys.
22:34Mmm.
22:45Come on, boy.
22:46Come on, Odie.
22:48Oh, no.
22:49Not you, too.
22:51I suppose we'll have to put you
22:53on a diet as of right now.
23:00All right, Odie.
23:01Give me ten.
23:02And wipe that stupid smile
23:04off your face.
23:05Come on, soldier.
23:06I said down and ten.
23:08One and two
23:09and one and two.
23:10Are we having fun yet?
23:13One and two
23:14and one and two.
23:17Do the mashed potato.
23:18Do the candy yam.
23:20Do the funky turkey
23:21cause it's time to jam.
23:23If you don't want to dance,
23:25baby, that's all right.
23:26Do some nonstop shopping.
23:28Work up an appetite.
23:30Make a Thanksgiving one more meal
23:33Cause the more you eat
23:36The more grateful
23:38You are gonna feed
23:42And I'll see you next time.
