Synopsis

When the person in charge of sound effects quits the show, Garfield hires Odie to handle the job. Odie ends up letting the sounds go out of hand.

Plot

One afternoon Garfield decides to do some sit-ups for some exercise. After doing just one, Garfield decides to take a nap only to find Nermal sleeping in his bed. Annoyed Garfield uses all types of loud devices to wake him up from a loud paper bag, to a trumpet and drums but is surprised that there's no sound coming out of any of them.

Wondering what's going on, Garfield goes backstage and finds the person in charge of the sound effects has quit to do sounds for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. He then wonders who will be stupid enough to do the job to which Odie decides to take the job. After showing him a series of examples with right sounds he puts Odie in charge of the sounds though Garfield thinks he'll regret that decision.

Once he gets home Garfield rings the bell since he forgot his keys. However Odie uses the sound of guns firing instead of a regular ringing. He knocks on the door that uses whistle sounds and then uses a spare key under the mat and the key makes a cash register sound. Once inside his footsteps make loud and weird sound effects and he realizes that hiring Odie was a bad idea.

Going back to his bed Garfield tries to wake Nermal up again. But the sounds are messed up. The paper bag makes a train whistle sound, the drum has the sound of a tin can and the trumpet spews out a telephone ring. Finally he kicks the bed which finally wakes Nermal from his nap. Nermals complains that Garfield is so mean to him but Garfield assures that doing that is in his contract and the fact he's upset that he slept in his bed. Nermal then guesses he'll be more mad at him since he ate all the lasagna in the kitchen to which Garfield runs into the kitchen to find out. He finds it true and now is even more mad at Nermal and attempts to mail him to Abu Dhabi.

Nermal attempts to reason with Garfield but the cat is too mad to be reason with and a chase ensures all while creating weird sound effects. He chases Nermal out of the house and through a traffic light. The traffic makes tribal noises while a policeman blows his whistle and it makes animal noises.

Eventually the chase leads to a zoo where Nermal hides and Garfield is looking for him. Garfield wonders if Odie is still doing sound effects to which a tiger roars at him but instead makes an alarm sound. He eventually finds Nermal in a kangaroo pouch and is about to mail him to Abu Dhabi. Just then a barrage of planes is heard and the two take cover in an alley but then a herd of elephants is approaching them. Garfield then remembers that Odie is behind the sound effects and goes out to prove there's no danger. However it's revealed a herd of elephants had indeed escaped from the zoo and trample Garfield.

In the end Garfield fires Odie from the sound effects and apologizes to the audience for the weird sounds and they'll get a new sounds effects person as soon as they can. Finally a chicken comes to him and makes a dog barking sound while tribal music is heard ending the episode.
