Moo Cow Mutt

Moo Cow Mutt is an episode from the fourth season of Garfield and Friends.

Synopsis

Garfield tricks Odie into believing he's a cow.

Plot

Garfield is bored and finds nothing good on TV. To lighten his mood, he decides to play a trick on Odie. By replacing a picture of a cow in a book with a mirror, he has Odie look at himself as if the book says he's a cow, thus prompting Odie to start acting like one.

Jon finds out about this trick and decides that he and Odie need to teach Garfield a lesson. Jon pretends to act like a big wig and say that Odie thinking he's a cow will make him rich while Garfield is worried about this. He tries to tell Odie that he's not a cow at all, but Odie keeps acting like one to trick Garfield into believing he convinced him by showing him all the things cows do by doing them in his own way. Jon tells Odie that he can stop now and that Garfield has suffered enough.

Garfield claims he wasn't fooled by their little charade one bit, even as the cartoon is about to come to an end.

The cartoon cuts away to the start of a US Acres quickie where Orson hears that Roy's building a life-size replica of Thomas Jefferson out of okra, but before they can see it, Garfield interrupts the quickie still stating that Jon and Odie didn't fool him but eventually gives up and walks away. Just as he does, a cow barks just like Odie.
