King Nermal ( Nermal s'incruste) is the 11th^US/13th^EU episode from the first season of The Garfield Show.

Synopsis

Nermal's owner has gone away on vacation, and Jon has offered to look after Nermal while he's gone. Watch out, everybody! The cutest kitten in the world (he says so himself) is coming over for a week! This is hell for Garfield, who can't stand his airs and graces.

Plot

Nermal's owner is out of town for ten days, so Nermal has to stay with Garfield. At first, Garfield and Odie try to kick Nermal out, but Jon scolds them and makes them tolerate his visit. Nermal starts annoying them by blocking the TV and pretending to have a leg injury when they retaliate. Jon orders Garfield and Odie to be nice to Nermal while he recovers, or they will be in trouble.

Garfield and Odie reluctantly take care of Nermal, who demands treats and massages. Jon is impressed by their care and rewards them with lasagna. However, they catch Nermal lying about his injury and try to tell Jon the truth. Unfortunately, Jon doesn't believe them and punishes them instead. Nermal takes advantage of the situation and manipulates Jon into keeping them in trouble.

One day, Garfield and Odie see Jon giving Nermal their lasagna and get angry. Garfield decides to trap Nermal in a trashcan. When Jon hears the bell ring, he thinks Garfield and Odie have harmed Nermal again and furiously kicks them out. That rainy night, Garfield and Odie sneak back in and disable the bell to prevent Nermal from calling Jon.

Despite thinking he has the upper hand, Nermal is unable to ring the bell. Garfield and Odie manage to get back at Nermal until he runs to Jon, who believes his leg has healed. As Garfield and Odie leave, they accidentally trip over Nermal's bandage and hurt themselves. They end up in casts, unable to eat regular food, while Jon mocks them and Nermal stays to oversee their recovery.
