(The episode opens when Garfield was sleeping, then Jon comes.)
Jon: In bed? On a beautiful day like this?
Garfield: I believe in letting the fates guide my life.
(Garfield goes to a spinner that say sleep eat)
Jon: Sleep, eat, sleep, eat, sleep, eat, sleep, eat, sleep, eat, sleep, eat, sleep.
(Garfield goes back to bed.)
Garfield: See? Fate.
(Jon pushes Garfield out of the house.)
Garfield: Some people don’t believe in fate. What else can go wrong today?
(Odie comes with a ball in his mouth)
Garfield: Well, I ask a bonehead question. (to Odie) You want me to throw the ball?
Odie: Uh-huh.
Garfield: And then you’ll go fetch it and bring it back to me to throw again?
Odie: Uh-huh. Uh-huh.
Garfield: And we’ll do this all day back and forth, back and forth?
Odie: Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh.
(Garfield gets a basket of balls and dumps them all out and Odie chases all of them)
Garfield: There. That ought to keep you busy for a while. All that work made me hungry, I need food.
(Jon sets a pie at the window. Jon walks away but Garfield gets behind the bushes and he takes the pie.)
Garfield: Pie is food.
(Garfield, about to eat the pie, misses it as someone takes it from him. There was a dog eating the pie.)
Dog: Mmmmmmm!
(The dog licks his lips)
Garfield: Excuse me, I believe you have my pie. Please return it.
Dog: What did you say?
Garfield: I said...
Dog: (growls)
Garfield: ...enjoy the pie.
(The dog eats the pie, spits the plate out and walks away.)
Dog: See you around, cat.
Garfield: Gee, that wasn’t fair, I stole that pie first. I don't--
(The pie plate falls on Garfield's head before he's able to finish his sentence and falls flat on the ground; Jon carries another pie, notices him lying on the ground outside and runs to him, dropping the second pie upside down.)
Jon: Garfield! Garfield, are you all right?
(Jon taps Garfield on the paw to try to get him back to his senses)
Garfield: Auntie Em...Auntie Em...Are we still in Kansas?
Jon: Garfield?
Odie: (whimpering)
Jon: Odie, fetch me the special Garfield first-aid kit.
Odie: (barks affirmatively and runs off)
Garfield: Garfield? Who’s Garfield?
(Odie quickly returns with the Garfield first-aid kit and hands it to Jon who opens it)
Jon: Here, the first-aid kit has a delicious lasagna in it.
Garfield: Lasagna? Take it away. Too many calories, and cholesterol. How about a nice salad with low-calorie dressing? Boy, I’m overweight, and this fur coat I’m wearing is pretty shabby.
(Garfield walks off wondering who he is)
Jon: Something’s wrong Odie. Something’s terribly wrong.
Odie: (barks in agreement)
(Scene changes to animal hospital; Liz is checking Garfield and conversing with Jon)
Liz: Apart from the bump on his head, he seems to be in fine shape. What makes you think he’s lost his memory?
Jon: He won’t eat, he won’t sleep, he doesn’t beat up on Odie or claw the furniture.
Liz: And you want me to restore his memory?
Jon: Y.....uh.... Le-let me think about this for a second.
(Odie tugs on Jon's pant leg)
Odie: (whines and barks worriedly)
Jon: You’re right Odie. We want our old friend Garfield back.
Liz: Well, it may just wear off. Or something familiar may jog him back to his old self.
(Garfield leaves and returns with a shot syringe)
Garfield: Are you sure I’m not due for my shots?
(scene changes back to the house)
Jon: Okay, remember, Odie, we have to remind Garfield of who he is.
(Jon walks over to Garfield, who is sitting on a table)
Jon: Oh, Garfield.
Garfield: Why do you keep calling me that?
Jon: Look! Odie is on the edge of the table! It would be so mean if someone were to shove Odie off that table!
Garfield: Say no more. I know what to do.
Jon: (giggles quietly) It's working. Shoving Odie off the table is Garfield's favorite sport! He's going to do it...
(But instead of shoving Odie off the table, he places him far away from the edge of it.)
Garfield: You shouldn't stand near the edge like that, puppy. Safety first.
(Odie is left confused as Jon approaches
Jon: (whispers) Slurp him, Odie. You know how Garfield hates that.
Odie: (snickers)
(Odie nods, runs to Garfield and slurps him)
Garfield: (giggles) That's nice of you, doggy. You're so sweet.
(Garfield pats Odie on the head)
Odie: Hm?
(Jon next attempts to give Garfield his bed)
Jon: Uh... Wouldn't you like a nap?
Garfield: In the middle of the day?
(Garfield pushes the bed back to Jon and walks away)
Odie: (whimpers)
Jon: I'm not giving up, Odie. I know how to restore his memory.
(Dissolve to kitchen where a whole tableful of food is placed in front of Garfield)
Jon: (to Garfield) I thought you might be hungry, so I whipped up a little snack.
Garfield: I wonder what army is coming by to eat all that fattening food. But I'm not hungry. I'll just have some of these raisins.
(Garfield walks down the corridor and eats raisins)
Jon: Here! At least take this lasagna!
Garfield: This strange person obviously went to a lot of trouble, so I don't want to hurt his feelings. I'll take a walk and maybe I'll find someone to give it to.
(Garfield takes the lasagna to Jon's delight and heads out of the house; cut to Herman Post, who is about to place letters in a mailbox, and he comes in horror after seeing Garfield)
Garfield: Hello, Mr. Mailman! Such a dedicated hard worker.
(Herman is surprised and confused to see Garfield doing nothing to stop him)
Garfield: Why is everyone acting so strangely? And why do they keep calling me Garfield? It's such a dumb name.
(The same dog peeks out at Garfield's lasagna from behind a tree)
Dog: (laughs and takes the lasagna) Thanks, cat!
Garfield: You're quite welcome. Enjoy.
Dog: (laughs, then stops) Eh- I'm welcome? What do you mean, I'm welcome? I just took your lasagna!
Garfield: And you're quite welcome to it. Eat hearty.
(Garfield waves and starts to walk away)
Dog: Wh-why? What's wrong with this stuff?
(The dog runs back to Garfield and tries to give the lasagna back, but Garfield tries to give it to him)
Dog: Oh, no. This has gotta be a trick or something.
Garfield: But I want you to have it.
Dog: No, no, not a chance! You take it!
Garfield: No please, I insist.
Dog: No way! Keep your lasagna!
(The dog runs away and Garfield gives chase with lasagna in paw)
Garfield: But I don't want it going to waste.
Dog: Oh, that cat's up to something!
Garfield: Come back here and eat my lasagna!
(The dog runs into an alley, but notices a dead-end as Garfield slowly corners him)
Dog: Aah! I'm trapped!
Garfield: Now are you gonna eat this lasagna yourself, or do I have to leave you?
(The dog falls to his knees as he's handed the lasagna)
Dog: No! Please! Don't make me eat your lasagna! I'm sorry I mistreated you! I'll never do it again! I--
(The dog, seeing the lasagna, sticks his tongue out in disgust and throws it away from him)
Garfield: Can't stand seeing food wasted.
(The lasagna falls on Garfield's head and he wobbles away; dissolve to a sad Jon and Odie in the kitchen inside the house)
(fade in to a sad Jon and Odie)
Jon: We may have to face it, Odie. Our friend Garfield is gone forever.
Odie: (whines)
(The front door suddenly is heard closing; Garfield walks into the kitchen as Jon hands him a pan of fresh lasagna)
Jon: Please, please, you've got to eat lasagna, please!
(Garfield shrugs and starts to eat lasagna, much to Jon's delight)
Jon: He's eating! He's eating lasagna!
(Garfield notices a lot of food and eats it; Jon walks over to him)
Jon: Garfield, are you really acting like Garfield again?
(Garfield, seeing Odie, pauses his eating and shoves Odie off the table;
Odie: (yelps)
(Jon picks Odie up off the floor and both are relieved to see Garfield's eating in action again)
Jon: It's good to have Garfield back.
Odie: (barks in agreement)
(Garfield finishes one bowl of food and picks up a piece of ham)
Garfield: Hey, I don't understand it. But sometimes...
(Garfield eats the ham)
Garfield: ...you don't ask questions.
(Garfield starts eating another bowlful of food as the episode ends.)
