The heat is unbearable under the Arbuckle roof. In fact it's unbearable everywhere. The only person seemingly happy with the heatwave is Mr. Allwork, whose sales in air conditioning and ice cream and sunblock have gone through the roof. Unfortunately for Jon, this day is also the day he promised the twins, Drusilla and Minerva, he'd take them camping in the woods.
Plot[]
Jon is watching TV, when a weather report tells them about a big heat wave hitting their area. Anthony Allwork comes onto the channel and tells the audience that he is making loads of money by selling his cooling goods and services to everyone.
Jon turns off the TV and finds out that Garfield and Odie drank all of his lemonade, so he chases them slowly when the doorbell rings and Drusilla and Minerva come in. Garfield and Odie make a frantic attempt to hide. Drusilla tells Jon that he promised that he would go camping on this day, and Jon reluctantly agrees, getting Garfield and Odie, and they go into the woods.
After pitching their tents, Jon went for a swim in the lake but painfully realizes that the scorching heat dried up most of it. Druscilla and Minerva then spots the heat drying up all the flowers in the area.
