After a failed attempt to give Nermal away, Garfield is disciplined and threatened by Jon into never being fed again if he continues being mean to Nermal.

Nermal is bored of all the soap operas on TV and asks Garfield to tell him a story. Garfield tells him the story of Hansel and Gretel, with the title duo and their father all resembling Garfield. They have eaten all of their food and their father, a woodcutter, is out of a job. He annouces that they run out of the food. The kittens stop eating and discover, that their father was not lying. Hansel has to contest for a chunk of cheese with a mouse. To cheer her father up. Gretel offers to find food with her brother. The woodcutter agrees and pushes his offspring from the house to find the wood.

They head out to the find food and leave a trail of bagels, which Nermal disbelieves. They soon come across a gingerbread house, where the witch, who plans to cook them, lived. Nermal protests against the graphic idea of children being cooked and eaten, noting cartoons are supposed to teach morals about friendship and kindness.

After the witch invites them in, the kids are about to push her into the oven, which frightens Nermal. When Jon enters the room and tells him to stop, Garfield changes his story. He says that they called the contracting company, with the building inspectors foreclosing the house for being built out of gingerbread. The house is sold at an auction. Hansel and Gretel's father cut it down, providing them with food again.
