The Write Stuff (FRFlag Essaie encore, Garfield) is the 28thUS/50thEU episode from the third season of The Garfield Show.

Synopsis[]

Samuel W. Underburger is the new script-writer for the Garfield Show but...he refuses to waste his time writing comedies! Garfield puts up all sorts of funny scenes to prove him wrong: Underburger is so little amused that he threatens to write everyone out! Alert!

Plot[]

Garfield interrupts the shooting of a scene of the Garfield Show due to its rather depressing content and what he sees as unfitting dialogue. When asked who wrote this episode, a newcomer named Samuel W. Underburger turns out to be the writer, which leads Garfield to look for him. At his office, Underburger tells Garfield that writing comedy would be "a waste of time", and except of once in his childhood, he would not laugh.

Outside the studio, Garfield tells Underburger to write "funny stuff" for him and Odie, only to be shocked when finding out that Odie had been written out by Underburger.

Garfield then tries to make Underburger laugh and runs into instructions from Dr. Whipple in his TV show (laughter as medicine and surprises). First he performs a role play with Squeak and Earth, followed by several physical pranks with help of Eddie Gourmand and the mole and Herman Post in a chicken costume.

Very angry about those actions and planning on writing all mentioned characters out of the show, Underburger steps on a banana peel thrown by the mole. His own fall makes Underburger laugh, and all the more committed to write funny dialogues. Garfield helps him, and even convinces him to write Odie back into the show.

Back in the studio, the scene still starts depressing, but changes its tone when Liz throws Jon a pie into his face. After filming the scene, Underburger plays a prank on Garfield in which a mobile phone dummy splashes him wet.
