(The final episode of this four-part series begins with a quick recap of the story thus far. Garfield is reading Odie a story about Prince Jon, who must marry soon before the evil Viceroy–Dr. Whipple–becomes king. The Handsome Cat–Garfield–and Dimwitted Dog–Odie–agree to help him. The Prince meets Fair Elizabeth–Liz–the Wicked Witch–Aunt Ivy–tricks Elizabeth into eating spaghetti bolognaise that puts her into a deep sleep. The animals gather around her and silently mourn what happened)
(After the summary, Odie is outside in the backyard, still crying from the tragic events that happened in Part 3)
Odie: Cries (Garfield opens the back door and steps outside. To his credit, he is willing to finish the story despite Odie’s antics)
Garfield: Huh? Wanna hear the rest of the story? (Odie turns around) It has a happy ending! Not everything in life does, (Odie turns back around, not fully convinced) but fairy tales do. That’s what’s great about ‘em! But if you don’t wanna hear it… (He heads back inside. Odie looks up at the camera, suddenly having second thoughts)
Odie: Mutters (He races back inside and beats Garfield to the couch. The pup sits back down on his spot)
Garfield: OK, have a seat. (He’s already sitting, so this line is unnecessary. Garfield grabs the book and continues the tale) “Well as you can imagine, (The camera shifts to Odie, who holds his paws together and blinks several times) the animals were all very sad about what had happened to the lovely Elizabeth.”
(Around the entrance of the cottage, several animals have gathered. Inside the cottage, the Handsome Cat and Dimwitted Dog stare mournfully at Elizabeth)
Handsome Cat: Sigh
Dimwitted Dog: Moan (Outside, the animals also mourn their loss)
Hercules: Oh. (His ears droop sadly) She was always so KIND to us!
Squeak: Hey, who’s that cat that just arrived?
Squirrel: That’s Prince Jon’s cat, I think. (Arlene–who is among the animals–speaks up, although her name in the story is “Beautiful Lady Cat”)
Beautiful Lady Cat: Prince Jon’s cat, I’ve always admired him. He’s so wonderful!
Chicken: Oh, where’d he go? (Harry runs up)
Harry: He’s inside the cottage. (He points and the Handsome Cat leaves the cottage, slurping the spaghetti from earlier)
Handsome Cat: Smacks lips Mm. sorry, I smelled the spaghetti bolognaise and I had to have a taste. EYUGHHHHH! (He freezes for a second as the poison does its thing. He falls backwards, being sent into a deep slumber)
Animals: Gasp! (The Handsome Cat sits up for just a second)
Handsome Cat: Oh, and it could use just a touch of basil. (He falls back down, snoring noisily)
Animals: Overlapping chatter
Handsome Cat: Snore (Some of the animals, including the Dimwitted Dog and the Beautiful Lady Cat, gather around him. A small kitten voices his opinion)
Kitten: Maybe Elizabeth is just asleep.
Squeak: But she snores way more dainty.
Dimwitted Dog: Bark! (The camera pans up into the trees and transitions into the living room. Garfield reads and wiggles his toes, and Odie lies on his stomach with his head in his hands listening intensely)
Garfield: (narrating) “They quickly discussed what they had to do. (He holds a finger up) It was the Beautiful Lady Cat who came up with the answer.”
(Back in the forest…)
Beautiful Lady Cat: (while shaking her head) We have to get him to a wizard. (Harry scratches his head)
Harry: Where are we gonna find a wizard at this hour? (They hear loud footsteps. The Dragon appears on top of the house and the animals gaze up at her)
Animals: Gasp!
Dragon: I know where there’s a wizard near here who’s open 24 hours.
Hercules: Well then, let’s get him there! (He hops in place)
(Later, the Dragon swoops and sways through the trees, carefully carrying her cargo, including Handsome Cat, Beautiful Lady Cat, Harry, and Dimwitted Dog)
Garfield: (narrating) “Through the forest they raced, raced to the dwelling of Merle, the all-night, we-never-close wizard.” (Dragon lands in front of a tree trunk with a door in it, Merle’s home)
Animals: Oh! Wow!
(Inside, Merle–played by Professor Bonkers–strokes his beard and thinks)
Merle: It looks like the Spaghetti of Doom! (He zips over to the table. Several bottles of magic mushrooms and potions lie on it) My wife used to make that. (Beautiful Lady Cat, who is sitting on the bed with the sleeping feline, pleads for help)
Beautiful Lady Cat: You’ve got to help him, O great wizard! You just have to!
Merle: I can’t help him, but (He zips over to her) YOU can!
Beautiful Lady Cat: Me? (She puts her paws to herself)
Merle: He sleeps the sleep of magic (He rises over a bubbling cauldron and sprinkles some magic dust above it. After doing that, he walks back to the cats) and can only be awakened by a kiss from one who loves him! Judging by the concern on your face, (he puts his hands on his hips) I would say that’s you.
Beautiful Lady Cat: (While turning to stare at the snoring fat) You mean…just kiss him? (She seems hesitant. The pup, who has been silent until now, speaks up)
Dimwitted Dog: I don’t know… (He looks over his sleeping friend)
Merle: Eh, give it a shot! (Harry, who hasn’t done much, nods next to him) See what happens.
Harry: Yeah, go for it. (He pounds his fist onto the table)
Dimwitted Dog: Bark! (Merle puckers his lips, and makes kissing sounds. Beautiful Lady Cat, slowly turns to her love. Merle, the pooch, and Harry watch eagerly as she leans over Handsome Cat and gives him a kiss on the face) Whoa! (The wizard, Harry, and puppy smile. As Beautiful Lady Cat gets off, Handsome Cat wakes up)
Handsome Cat: Gasp! Hey, is there any more of that great spaghetti?
Harry: Wow, it worked! (Merle holds Harry and Dimwitted Dog as Handsome Cat sits up. The latter three celebrate)
Handsome Cat: Chuckles (He and Beautiful Lady Cat look at each other, and the two lovebirds hug each other)
(On the couch in Jon’s living room, Odie hugs Garfield. It’s adorable, even if Garfield doesn’t approve. The cat just glares at his canine companion before gently pushing him away with his paw to continue reading near the end of the book, as there are only a few pages left in the book and this four-part series is nearly complete)
Garfield: (narrating) “Not only did they wake up the superb cat, (Garfield nudges Odie back down on his rear. Odie, who had his eyes closed during the hug, opens his eyes and continues listening)
Odie: Huh?
Garfield: (continuing) “but they learned something else.” (He holds up a finger as the scene returns to Merle’s home)
Beautiful Lady Cat: Is that how to awaken our friend Elizabeth?
Dimwitted Dog: (quietly) Mm-hmm.
Merle: Indeed! (He holds a finger up) A kiss from a true love (He holds his hands together and tilts his head, making it look like he is depicting sleeping) is all that is required!
Handsome Cat: And I know
Beautiful Lady Cat: (turning to her love) Huh?
Handsome Cat: who her true love is! C’mon! (He motions with his arm that he wants the others to join him) Let’s go get Prince Jon! (The trio of cats and singular pup leave)
(Above the castle, a bluebird flies and sings its song. It happens to land between the bars of the prison door where Prince Jon was being kept. The prince looks at the bird)
Prince Jon: Moan (He holds his crown, almost certain that he will be giving it up anyway. After finding the prince, the bluebird flies off)
(Later, as the sun rises on a new day, the main three cats and dog are surprised to see all the other animals just outside Merle’s tree trunk house)
Handsome Cat: Hey, what are you guys doing here?
Mole: (while shaking his head) We just heard terrible news!
Chicken: Yes! This bluebird says that the Viceroy has locked Prince Jon in the tower! (The bluebird flies to the Handsome Cat)
Bluebird: Chirps
Handsome Cat: Gasp! Huh?
Dimwitted Dog: Moan! (Beautiful Lady Cat turns to look at the moaning pup. Harry scratches his head and a kitten next to him scowls. Harry then silences him by covering his mouth) Yowl!
Beautiful Lady Cat: He can’t do that! We need Prince Jon to kiss Elizabeth and awaken her!
Handsome Cat: And then he needs to marry her (He puts his paw to his lips, thinking, and starts to slowly step away from the group) so that he can be king and stop that evil man!
Animals: Overlapping chatter
Garfield: (narrating) “But the wise cat knew that there was only one answer to the problem.” (As if to answer Garfield, the Handsome Cat turns around and shouts to his animal comrades)
Handsome Cat: We are!
Animals: Gasp!
Handsome Cat: (continuing) Everybody, follow me! (He turns around and zips away)
(On the couch, Garfield reads and Odie looks at the book)
Garfield: (reading) “And so all the animals went off…” (He points up)
Odie: Huh?
Garfield: (continuing) “to rescue Prince Jon, (He looks at Odie) and also save the Fair Elizabeth. (Returning to the fairy tale, time has passed, as the sky has taken its brilliant blue rather than its sunrise orange and red) As they marched towards the castle, (The Handsome Cat and the others march over a small hill) others joined in, animals who had been befriended over the years by Elizabeth.” (Some of the others include more dogs, a couple of horses, among others. Upon reaching the top, Handsome Cat puts his hands on his hips and looks at the castle. He, Beautiful Lady Cat, and Dimwitted Dog glare angrily at it and Dragon lands, making her presence felt)
Dragon: Roar!
Handsome Cat: Grunt (He waves his paw, signaling the others to follow. They slowly march their way toward the village and castle)
Garfield: (narrating) “While at the castle, the evil Viceroy had decided not to wait to seize power!”
(The camera flies toward the castle, and then points to what’s happening within the walls. The Viceroy descends down the stairs and addresses two lines of knights in blackened armor)
Viceroy Whipple: Guards, from now on you are to address me as “Your Highness”, and follow orders! Is that clear? (The knights raise their Medieval axes and plant them back into the ground, standing straighter in submission to their new ruler)
Guards: Yes, Your Highness. (The evil Viceroy walks toward Al, the Royal Dog Catcher)
Royal Dog Catcher: But you aren’t king until tomorrow, (He holds his finger up) and only if Prince Jon doesn’t marry.
Viceroy Whipple: Ha! (He points at the dog catcher) How can he marry? He’s in the tower prison! (He points behind him at the prison) And the one woman who he’d marry (He clenches his fist) is sleeping for all eternity!
Royal Dog Catcher: Cries Why?
Viceroy Whipple: (while pointing his thumb at himself) I’m taking the throne NOW! (He points at the ground) Chuckle (A knight on top of the wall calls to Whipple)
Guard: Your Highness, there’s an army marching on the castle.
Viceroy Whipple: An army? An army of barbarians? (The knight disappears for a split second to see what is approaching. He then reappears and shakes his head no) An army of pirates? (Once again, he disappears, reappears, and shakes his head no. Viceroy Whipple shrugs his shoulders, out of guesses for what army could be coming. The knight sentry puts his hand to his visor to see farther, but can only see specks in the distance on top of a hill. Using a telescope, he sees the Handsome Cat leading a charge of animals, with Dimwitted Dog, Beautiful Lady Cat, and others following close behind. The knight then reports to Whipple)
Guard: It seems to be an army of squirrels, (He raises his hand with each animal he lists) and cats and dogs and chickens.
Viceroy Whipple: Laughs Just keep the gate locked. (He extends his hand toward the gate, turns around, and walks away, talking to the Royal Dog Catcher) We have nothing to fear from squirrels, and cats and dogs and chickens. (The camera spins and pans to the castle tower)
Garfield: (narrating) “While up in the tower…” (Inside the dark cell, Prince Jon laments to Lamren, AKA Nermal, who the Viceroy threw into the dungeon in Part 3)
Prince Jon: It is no use. Even if I COULD escape from the cell, Elizabeth will not marry me!
Lamren: Sure she would. She’s CRAZY about you!
Prince Jon: Uh…(He turns to Lamren) she is?
Lamren: Sure! (He turns around and steps a bit further) She thinks you’re even cuter (He spins around and points his cane at the prince) than I am, and that’s real cute. (He winks) You just need to convince her that you’re brave and good!
Prince Jon: I am! (He stands up. Outside, he hears a loud noise) But how do I prove it to… (He puts his crown on and walks to the door) what’s that commotion? (Lamren follows. Prince Jon grabs the jail door bars)
Garfield: (narrating) “The prince had no idea what was going on, and the rescue party didn’t have much more of one, either." (The animals march across the bridge, but are forced to stop when they reach the door. The Handsome Cat pauses to think as a kitten, who waks up next to him, asks the obvious)
Kitten: How do we get inside the castle?
Squeak: Yeah, the gate is locked! (A mole pops up next to the Handsome Cat)
Mole: I know! (Everyone turns to hear the mole’s suggestion)
Dimwitted Dog: Huh?
Mole: (continuing and pointing) I’ll dig us a tunnel inside! (He waves his claws as if he were digging)
Handsome Cat: (while shaking his head) How long will that take?
Mole: Oh…not more than a month
Handsome Cat: Ugh… (he hangs his head in frustration)
Mole: (continuing) or two!
Dragon: We don’t have time for that. (She steps across the bridge. All the animals around her clear a path)
Animals: Gasp!
Dragon: (continuing) Leave it to me. (The guard above the door group closer together in fear)
Guards: YAAAHHHHH! (The dragon shouts a wave of fire on the wooden door)
Dragon: Roar! (Just like kindling, the door reduces to ashes)
Guard: YAAAHH! (He flees as the animals charge forward)
(Above them, the evil Viceroy watches and pounds his fist on the wall in front of him)
Viceroy Whipple: Stop them! (Down below, a wolf attacks one knight and a chicken flies in the face of another) Stop those animals!
Guard: AAAAAHHHHH! (Squeak and his friends join in the fun, rushing in and hopping into the eyeholes of one of the knights' visors. That knight falls over, while two others are being chased and sat on by two different squirrels. A chicken sits on another guard’s head, while a horse kicks another guard high into the sky. He wails and then crashes into the four knights standing above the door to the sound of bowling pins. Other animals chase and bite the knights, including the Dimwitted Dog, who clings with his teeth onto a fleeing guard. Above them, a murder of crows flies toward the Viceroy, who turns around and retreats into the castle)
Viceroy Whipple: Whoa!
(In the castle courtyard, Handsome Cat, a chicken, and a squirrel team up to take out four more guards. The chicken lays an egg, the squirrel tosses it, and the Handsome Cat, who is holding a tennis racket, serves it into a line of sentries, who all lose their balance. For good measure, Dragon breathes her fire at them, causing them to evacuate)
Guards: Whoa!
(Two knights standing at the castle door stand in position to stop the Handsome Cat as the latter runs up the stairs. The feline freezes, but the guards are immediately takes out by the Twin Nieces, who drop chairs on both of their heads)
Twin Nieces: Kitty cat! (Instantly, nine more knights charge forward and stand in the hallway the animals need to get it. At first, Handsome Cat, Dimwitted Dog, and Beautiful Lady Cat are aggressive, but seeing the roadblock makes them stop. At that moment, Hercules the Chihuahua storms up the stairs and growls at them like a wolf)
Hercules: GRRRRRRRR! (Horrified, the knights flee)
Guards: AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH! (Hercules smiles and hops excitedly in place. The Handsome Cat rushes past him and into the castle)
(Inside, Handsome Cat, Dimwitted Dog, and Beautiful Lady Cat follow a raven inside. They reach a fork in the hallway, except the right side has five knights standing right next to them)
Handsome Cat: Gasp!
Dimwitted Dog: Moan (They stop quickly and run the other direction the knights follow) Howl! (Terrified, the heroes see that on the other end of the corridor are some more knights. At the perfect moment, the Twin Nieces open a door and allow the animals to take cover)
Twin Nieces: Kitty cat! (They wave. The animals–minus the raven, as he is no longer in these scenes–run in and the door slams behind them, causing a wave of evil knights to crash into the door. Eventually, the force of the knights opens the door, where the Nieces and animals each grab a plate and fling them like frisbees at them, hitting some of them on the head and knocking them over)
(Next to them, the Viceroy steps toward the door with a confident look on his face. The knights barge through the door, only to see a second door on the other side wide open. The Viceroy points down it and commands his troops)
Viceroy Whipple: Follow me! (He waves his arm, gesturing to them to follow)
(Elsewhere, the cats, pup, and twins were actually hiding in the chimney sweep. One by one they exit, with four of them making a clean landing. The Dimwitted Dog, however, just lands on his rear)
Dimwitted Dog: Yowl! (They run down another hallway and get intercepted by three of Whipple’s goons. The animals, using their smaller size, bolt in between the guards, avoid their axes, and escape. The twins, however, seem to be able to hold their own)
Twin Nieces: Let’s play dress-up! (The knights tremble at the prospect of “Dress-Up”. They flee, with the twins following) Overlapping chatter
(Elsewhere, the Dimwitted Dog slowly tiptoes up the stairs to the Witch’s room. He can hear the Royal Food Taster still snoring loudly on the floor)
Royal Food Taster: Snore! Snore! (He reaches the top and looks into the top. There is the Food Taster, much to the puppy’s surprise)
Dimwitted Dog: Hmm? (He runs over to him and screeches to a halt next to him) Mutter (He looks uncertain about his next move, but decides to go with it. He steps closer to the Food Taster, tapping his fingers nervously, and gives him a couple of licks) Slurp! Slurp! (Instantly, the Food Taster wakes up)
Royal Food Taster: Oh! (He sits on his side and shakes his head) Did somebody kiss me?
Dimwitted Dog: Bark!
(Elsewhere in the castle, the Nieces chase the knights all over)
Guards: AAAAAAHHHHHHH!
Twin Nieces: Laugh (They point at the terrified sentries and then turn around to face some more) We have a nice prom dress (They run after the guards, who, of course, flee for their lives. OK, maybe not their lives. For their dignity) for you to try on!
(Inside the castle prison, Lamren and Prince Jon notice how well the animals are doing)
Lamren: Wow! My friends have taken over the whole castle! Do you think somebody’s going to rescue us? (Prince Jon smiles. At that moment, his cat kicks the jail door down and barges in)
Handsome Cat: Consider yourself rescued! (He points at them and grins. The prince and kitten get off their seats and follow. Prince Jon gets free, but the conniving kitten gets a door slammed in his face)
Lamren: Ow! Hey! (He angrily grips the bars)
Handsome Cat: Not you! (He leaves)
Lamren: AAHHH! (He pokes his head out from between the bars) Grrrrrrr! (He scowls at the Handsome Cat. Well, as they say, “Snitches get prison”.)
(On top of one of the castle turrets, the Wicked Witch–Aunt Ivy–rendezvouses with Al the Royal Dog Catcher. The witch screeches to a halt in front of him)
Wicked Witch: The whole castle’s flooded with (She trembles in terror) animals!
Royal Dog Catcher: Uh, (He glances around nervously) we gotta get outta here! (The Viceroy appears carrying a treasure chest on his left shoulder)
Viceroy Whipple: I’m going to take the tax money I've collected so far, and FLEEEEEEEEEEE!
Wicked Witch and Royal Dog Catcher: We’re with ya! (All three of them climb onto the witch’s broom and make their escape, well, except the Dog Catcher, who clings onto the bottom)
Garfield: (narrating) “It looked like the bad guys were gonna escape (The broom dives, weighed down by the extra passengers and money) with all the money the evil Viceroy (The broom stabilizes and they fly toward the castle) had stolen from the people of the city!”
Viceroy Whipple and Wicked Witch: Evil cackle (They seem destined to escape, but they forgot one thing:) Gasp! (The dragon floats in front of them and blocks their path)
Dragon: ROAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR! (The villains flee, with the dragon in hot pursuit)
Garfield: (narrating) “The Viceroy, his aide, and the Wicked Witch fled in terror of the dragon!” (They weave around the buildings, but cannot shake the dragon)
Viceroy Whipple: AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH! (The chasees and chaser split paths around a lookout tower, except the Witch is flying too low) WHOAAAAA! (The Royal Dog Catcher hits the top of a roof, and the other two villains–followed by the Dog Catcher–slam into the chimney of the same house. The broom flies away and disappears behind another house. The villains then slide down the room and land in a heap on the ground. The treasure chest of money hits the Viceroy directly in the face)
(Nearby, the Handsome Cat watches from behind a barrel. Next to him is his pooch pal)
Handsome Cat: Quick!
Dimwitted Dog: Huh? (The feline points at…something)
Handsome Cat: (continuing) Turn the catapult (He rubs his paws together, as if concocting a plan) so that it faces the castle!
Dimwitted Dog: Uh-huh. (He nods and obeys)
(Not far, the trio of villains attempt to escape with their loot, but the Handsome Cat stands in front of them, blocking their path. All three of them brake on their heels)
Handsome Cat: (while putting his paws on his hips) You wanna get away from the dragon? Quick! (He holds a finger up) Use the catapult! (He glances at it, and then back at the bad guys. He then zips over to the catapult spoon) Get right in and I'll fling you to safety! (He grins)
Viceroy Whipple: Thank you.
Royal Dog Catcher: Chuckles (All three of them pile in without a second thought)
Handsome Cat: All comfy now? Good. (He gives the pup the thumbs-up. The Dimwitted Dog pulls a lever on the catapult, flinging them into the air)
(While in mid-air, they realize where the catapult is pointing: the dungeon)
Viceroy Whipple, Wicked Witch, and Royal Dog Catcher: WHOAAAAAAAAA! (All three of them break through the ceiling and land in a pile in front of Lamren. The treasure chest then lands on Whipple’s back)
Viceroy Whipple: Grunt! (The prince and his cat stand in the doorway. They shake hands)
Prince Jon and Handsome Cat: Laugh
(On the couch, Odie wonders something)
Odie: Questioning mutters
Garfield: Huh? No, (He waves his paw between himself and Odie) we’re not to the (He points up) “happily ever after” part yet. (He wags his finger at the big-hearted beagle) We still have to wake up the Fair Elizabeth and get her to marry Prince Jon, (The Tubby Tabby grabs the book) remember?
Odie: Ohh. (He looks at the ceiling, as if he was thinking) Mm-hmm. (He nods)
(Inside the cottage, the main animals and Jon surround Elizabeth)
Garfield: (narrating) “After that it was pretty simple: Prince Jon kissed Elizabeth, (He kisses her on the face) she woke up and realized who’d saved her…”
Fair Elizabeth: Gasp! You! Prince Jon!
Animals: Awwwwwwwww!
Fair Elizabeth: And all these animals.
Handsome Cat: He was willing to fight a fire-breathing dragon for you. (Prince Jon gently helps Elizabeth to her feet)
Fair Elizabeth: For me?
Handsome Cat: Chuckles
Fair Elizabeth: It seems you DO have heart (The lovebirds hold hands. Next to them, Handsome Cat and Beautiful Lady Cat stand with their paws on the other’s back) and courage.
Prince Jon: Then will you honor me by joining your heart to mine in marriage?
Fair Elizabeth: But of course! (Prince Jon smiles)
Animals: Cheer
(On one of the castle turrets, Prince Jon and Fair Elizabeth wear white wedding clothes and start singing)
Prince Jon: We'll be happy together, (They step down from the altar)
Truly birds (They begin dancing) of a feather.
Fair Elizabeth: Having someone who cares,
Answered my prayers, (The Handsome Cat bows to the Beautiful Lady Cat, who laughs. She joins the Handsome Cat hand in hand and dances on her toes)
Prince Jon and Fair Elizabeth: We will be happy, happy,
We'll be so happy. (In the prison, Viceroy Whipple joins in the song, with Lamren in front of him, but not saying a word, yet)
Viceroy Whipple: If they put us on trial, (He leaves from the window and dances in the center on the cell, where a spotlight shines)
We'll be gone for a while. (For his finale, he does a belly flop, expecting to be caught. However, Lamren steps to the side)
(The main four villains start breaking rocks as part of their prison duty. Lamren starts singing)
Lamren: Bid freedom farewell,
Some prison cell, (He mops the floor in the cell as the Viceroy reads a newspaper)
Lamren and Whipple: Will be our home. (They hold hands together as the camera pans to the outside. Whipple sings solo, and then is joined by Lamren)
Whipple: I once wore the crown...
Lamren: Now you're going down...
Lamren and Whipple: Then together all the way. (Outside, the dragon breathes her fire into the shape of a heart)
(In the ceremony, the Handsome Cat continues dancing with the Beautiful Lady Cat)
Handsome Cat: I wish good times upon ya, (The cats sing together as the Dimwitted Dog steps over to his friend)
Handsome Cat and Beautiful Lady Cat: Lots of pie and lasagna, (The pup winks and points with his thumb at the buffet table nearby. Seeing the banquet, the Handsome Cat locks hands with his canine companion and they skip toward the table. The puppy dog also sings a verse)
Dimwitted Dog: (in song) Bark, barkbarkbark bark bark! Barkbarkbarkbarkbark! (The best friends grab themselves some food: the pup, a couple of chicken legs and the cat, practically everything else. Everyone joins in and sings together)
Everyone: We will be happy, happy,
We'll be so happy. (The cat and dog duo clink their food together, as if they were glasses to toast)
(The prince and Elizabeth dance together in the center of the turret, as well as both feline lovers)
We'll be happy together,
Any storm we can weather, (Merle magically creates a wave of doves. Everyone watches)
Having someone to hold,
Better than gold, (The camera focuses on the front of the doves as they fly away)
We will be happy, happy,
We'll be so happy. (The Handsome Cat sings one last verse)
Handsome Cat: We will be happy! (The song ends, but in the distance, the Handsome Cat screams)
Handsome Cat: YAAAAHHHHH! (The camera returns to the party, where the heroic cat has been dressed by the twins in a pale yellow princess outfit. It matches pretty well, with his orange fur. The shade of yellow is like the color of his lips) Well at least, they finally picked out a good color for me. (The Twins nod. The Beautiful Lady Cat gives the Handsome Cat a kiss on the cheek) Chuckle
(Back on the couch, Garfield wraps up the story)
Garfield: “But apart from that, (Odie scoots over to the Flabby Tabby, who is now standing up) everyone lived (Odie stands up and bounces in place, clapping his paws together) happily ever after.” (They then hear the sound of a door opening and closing) Hey look, (Odie steps behind Garfield) the prince and the Fair Elizabeth are home. (They look furious. Jon holds an empty basket in his hand) I-I mean, Jon and Liz! (Jon holds the basket in front of his cat)
Jon: Garfield, did you eat our picnic? (Liz taps her fingers against her hip)
Garfield: (pointing up) Must be time for lunch or dinner or some meal. (He puts his paw to his chin, as if he was thinking)
Odie: Oh… (Garfield holds the book in two paws and taps his fingers on it)
Garfield: So, did you like the story, boy?
Odie: Mutters (He nods his head yes. I liked it, too. It was fun to watch and write a transcript for. But all good stories must come to an end and with one last wink from Garfield to the audience, I can write the two most satisfying words when doing a big project, or a multi-part series)
THE END
