The Garfield Show (2008–2016): Season 1, Episode 3 - Bone Diggers/The Robot - full transcript

Bone Diggers: Unwiling to throw Odie even a second bone from the pork chops he steals from the fridge, Garfields sends Odie digging up one from the garden. When the dog drags in a giant one, Garfield realizes it must be from a Dinosaur and brings it to the city museum, bent on a huge finders' reward. Only there he discovers the home where it was found will be expropriated and torn down, so he flees with it. Then he trick the mean chihuahua guard dog next door and the archaeologists.

-[Garfield] Hee-hee!
-[remote clicks]

Back in a while, guys!

Garfield, don't eat all the ribs
while I'm away.

"Don't eat all the ribs while I'm away."

Did he really think I'd eat all the ribs
while he was away?

What shall I do now?

I think I'll eat all the ribs
while he's away.

Mmm. Yum, yum. Good.

[Odie yips, sniffs]



Oh, it's you. You hungry, Puppo?

Yeah!

Fine. I'll give you the part I can't eat.

That's the best thing about dogs.

They're happy with stuff
that no one else would wanna eat.

Huh?

A bone! A juicy, delicious bone.

Hey, Odie! Look at that mockingbird!
He's mocking you!

Hmm? Hmm?

[Odie] I don't see anything.

Hmm?

Hmm? [gasps] Huh?!

[howls]

-[Odie whining]
-Huh?



Another bone?

How could you have finished the first one?

No, I'm not giving you another bone.

[Odie whines]

If you want a bone, dig up one that you've
buried out in the garden over the years.

[Odie muttering]

[gasps] Wow!

[straining]

[humming happily]

The best part of eating ribs?

Licking your paws.

[muttering]

So you found a big bone. Big deal.
Don't bother me.

[yelping]

So it's the biggest bone you ever saw?

Don't, I repeat, bother me.

[yelping]

Oh, all right, all right, I'll look at it.

Oh, if it only had meat on it.

-Odie, do you know what this is?
-[inquisitive yelp]

But not just any big bone! Come on.

That's a dinosaur bone!
Those are worth a lot of money!

This is the website for the town's
natural history museum. Watch.

Here at the museum, we are especially
proud of our dinosaur skeletons.

Recently, we located this one.

It's a Tyrannosaurus Rex
from the Cretaceous period.

This skeleton is valued at more than
a quarter of a million dollars.

A quarter of a million dollars!
Odie, I'm rich!

Do you know how much lasagna you can buy
for a quarter of a million dollars?

Enough to feed me.

Wow!

I'm gonna take that bone down
to the museum and find that lady.

-You go dig up the rest of the skeleton.
-Me?

We found this skeleton in someone's
backyard on the west side of town.

We had to get a court order
to have the people evicted

and their home torn down
but we did it, all in the name of science.

[whimpering]

Odie, get back to work.

Have that skeleton dug up
by the time I get back.

[yelp]

[chuckles]

Oooh! [gasps]

[panting]

Whoo!

[straining]

"Brontosaurus, also known
as Apatosaurus,

lived 150 million years ago and weighed
a minimum of 23 metric tons."

Twenty-three metric tons?

That's more than I weigh
after a good Italian dinner.

I gotta find that lady who'll pay
a fortune for the bones Odie's digging up.

[bones rattling]

Oh, no!

-[crash!]
-[guard screams]

Hey, cat! You're in a lot of trouble.

And first, you put that bone down.
That's museum property.

Oh, no, no. I brought this bone with me.
It's gonna make me rich!

-[giggles]
-[guard stammering]

Oh, no.

Whoa!

[Tarzan yell from guard]

[Garfield laughs]

Yaaaa!

Aaaah!

Oh, no. I'm trapped.
There's no way out of here.

Okay, I've got him cornered
in the Tyrannosaurus Rex exhibit.

He can't possibly get away.

-[bones rattle]
-[guard screams]

[screaming]
Help! Let me outta here!

Congratulations! You're now an exhibit.

The first security guard to be swallowed
by a Tyrannosaurus.

Help!

Myron! A cat stole a bone
and is heading down corridor 11 with it.

Where's that lady who pays
the big bucks for dino bones?

[guard] Sorry, cat. Our dinosaur bones
are not "to go" orders.

But I brought this with me!
Odie found it in the garden!

Hey, I recognize you.

You live with that Arbuckle guy
on my block.

What seems to be the trouble, Myron?

No trouble, Mrs. Brubaker.

This cat tried to steal
this dinosaur bone.

I don't recognize this bone
from any of our exhibits. It's...

It's from a Brachiosaurus.

A brachiwhozis?

This is one of the rarest dinosaurs
in the world.

We don't have one in our collection.

Cat, did you find this where you live?

I'll take the money in small bills.
Mostly hundreds.

We must have an immediate excavation

to find every possible bone
on the property.

We'll get a court order to tear down
any buildings or dwellings.

Tear down?

You mean you'd just tear down
this Arbuckle guy's home?

Science is more important
than anyone's individual life.

Our house! I won't let you!

The cat's getting away.

Let him. You seem to know
where the property is. Let's go.

Myron?

Myron, can you hear me?

Could somebody come and get me
out of this? Somebody? Anybody?

I have to get rid of those bones
or they'll tear down our house.

Ohh! [panting]

Help!

[clang!]

-[motorcycles buzz by]
-[siren wailing]

[Garfield sighing]

[clang!]

-Odie! You dug up an entire dinosaur.
-Mm-hmm.

You did as I asked, boy, and that's great.

-There's just one more thing to do.
-What?

-Bury them all again.
-No!

[Garfield] No, there's no time.
This is awful.

I should have given you
that second rib bone

instead of sending you out to dig here.

[Odie whines]

What do you mean you never
got the first one?

-I gave it to you.
-No!

What? Hercules stole it?

That little sawed-off Chihuahua
down the block?

[Odie] Mm-hmm.

[Garfield] This could work out just fine.

[snarling] Oh, yes!

Hey, what's haps there, Hercules?

If you've come to take the bone back,
I'm not giving it to you.

I stole it fair and squares!

Oh no, you can keep it.

Odie doesn't bother
with those tiny bones anymore.

This is not a tiny bone.
It is a good size bone.

Oh, you think so, huh? Come on.

Look at the kind of bone
Odie's been digging up at our place.

You can keep any of those tiny bones.
Who needs them?

I have to take Odie for a walk.

So I hope nobody steals his new bones
while we're gone.

Can it be?

It's true, it's true.

The largest, most beautiful bones
I have ever seen.

[straining]

I don't care how many trips I make.
These bones will be all mine!

[siren wailing]

[car doors open]

[close]

[doorbell rings]

Hold on, I just got home this minute.
What is it you wanna do?

It's what we are going to do.

We're having your home declared
a site of vital scientific interest.

We're going to tear down the whole house
and dig for dinosaur bones.

Dinosaur bones?
There are no dinosaur bones here.

There are. Your cat had one.

-Wanna see where the dinosaur bones are?
-You want us to follow you, cat?

There are your dino bones, lady.

My word!

Those are Brachiosaurus bones.

Forget about Mr. Arbuckle's property.
Let's tear this house down and dig!

I don't know how you do it, Garfield.

I don't know how I do it, either.

Come on, boy. Let's get home
and see if there are any ribs left.

You can have the bone, and I'll take all
the meat stuff they stick on the outside.

[slurps]

Lunch will be ready in a few minutes.
I made beef stew!

-[toy squeaks]
-Ooops!

-[clang!]
-[toy squeaks]

Odie, you left one
of your doggie toys out again.

-[Odie whimpers]
-[toy squeaks]

This is not the first time, Odie.

And if it isn't you leaving
doggie toys around,

it's Garfield and his supper dishes.

Whoa!

[crash!]

Like that one.

If you'd fill them more often, I wouldn't
leave them out where you trip over them.

-Guys, you have to pick up after yourself.
-[doorbell rings]

Oh, now, who could that be?

I sometimes feel like I spend
half my life picking up after my pets.

Yes?

Good day, sir.

Do you feel like you spend half your life
picking up after your pets?

I just said that.

Well, I have just the answer
to your problem.

Behold, the all-new, rechargeable,
digital-drive, robotic,

custodial marvel of the ages,
the TI-D 7000!

It's a robot.

Not just a robot, sir.

A robot that can keep your home
sparkling clean, neat, and immaculate.

[Garfield] Jon's right.

I know it doesn't happen often,
but Jon's right.

We are getting the house messy.

He shouldn't be the one
to pick up all this stuff.

Right!

Let me know when you get done.
I'm gonna make a sandwich.

Huh?

Let me give you a little demonstration.

I'll set the robot to clean up after pets.

[beeping, whirring]

[sensors beeping]

[vacuum roaring]

[Odie whining]

This is gonna be a sandwich
of historic proportions.

First, the bread.

Now I need something good to put
between the two slices of bread.

Like maybe... everything.

Here we go.

That'll do for a start.
Now, let's see, I just... Wait.

That's funny.
I thought I had some bread out.

[gasps] Ahem.

Huh? Hmm.

All right, you overgrown toaster oven.

Give me back my sandwich or else.

[robot whirring rapidly]

On second thought, keep the sandwich.
I'm going out for a pizza.

[Garfield screaming]

[vacuum roaring]

[sensors beeping]

Hey! Hey! Put me down! Stop!

Let me out of here!

[banging sides] I don't wanna be in here!
I can't stand being in here!

Here's my sandwich. [crunch]

-This is pretty good.
-[Odie whining]

[Garfield] Oh, hi, Odie.

No, you can't have any of my sandwich.

[both] Huh?

Yeow!

Do you have any idea
what just happened to us?

-Uh-uh.
-No, me neither.

Let's find out so we can make it
never happen again.

Just sign here, Mr. Arbuckle,
and the TI-D 7000 will be yours

for just 7,000 easy payments.

First, I want to see how it worked.

Very nice. Very nice.

I can't recall my living room
ever looking this good.

So is it a deal, Mr. Arbuckle?

Just sign here,

and the robot will be cleaning your house
every hour of every day.

No! Please don't buy that robot.

Please don't buy that robot.
Please don't buy that robot.

Did I say you shouldn't buy that robot?

[Odie, yipping] Please don't buy
that robot, don't buy that robot.

No!

Well, Mr. Arbuckle,
you bought yourself a robot.

Here's the instruction manual.

It has a money-back guarantee.

I'll check back with you later
and see how it's working for you.

You two won't be messing up
the house any longer.

-Yeah, because we won't survive.
-[Odie whimpers]

I never read instruction manuals.

[robot whirring]

[stomach rumbling]

-Shh!
-[vacuum whirring]

Ptooey!

Yum, yum!

[steel "hands" clanking]

[crunching]

[cereal clangs]

[alarm sounding]

[whirring, buzzing]

[gasps]

[sensors beeping]

I don't suppose I could convince you
I was a jar of raspberry preserves?

Aaaah!

[vacuum whirring, "hand" clanking]

Help!

[screams] Whoa!

[Garfield sighs]

[Garfield] In here again!
Well, maybe Odie will get me out.

-[Odie whines]
-So much for that "maybe."

-[Odie yips]
-Odie, old pal.

-We have to do something about this robot.
-[whirring resumes]

[both screaming]

The question is, what to do?
Do you have any ideas?

No, you never have any ideas.

Why am I even asking?

[Odie] I don't ever know.

Odie! That's the instruction manual
for the robot.

Maybe you did have an idea
and didn't know it.

[Odie] I did?

Okay, I think I have it.

We just need someone to distract
that bucket of bolts.

Odie, old friend...

[blows raspberry]

[screaming]

[steel "hands" clanking]

[alarm whirring]

[Garfield] Whoo-hoo!

Yaaaa!

Let's see, reprogramming sequence.

[screaming]

[Odie muttering]

[panting]
Okay, I changed the programming.

Instead of cleaning up after pets,

it's now going to clean up
after pet owners. [chuckles]

[thud!]

[beeping]

Ahh!

[alarm sounding]

Hey, not me, robot.

You're supposed to clean up
after the cat and dog, not me!

You're not supposed to chase me.
I own you! It's my house!

-I'm allowed to get it dirty!
-Let's see how Jon likes it.

Not me! Them! Not me! Whoa!

[crash!]

-[vacuum whirring]
-[thud!]

Stop!

It tickles! Don't! Somebody turn it off!

So, what do you think, Odie?
Shall we turn it off?

Hmm. Mm-hmm.

Help! Help! I'm clean! I'm clean!
Honest, I'm clean! Okay?

[robot powers down]

I'm sorry, guys.
I didn't realize what it would do.

It's that salesman's fault.
He should have warned me about that thing.

Well...

I have an idea about him.

[doorbell rings]

Mr. Arbuckle? I'm here to see
how things are going with the TI-D 7000.

Hey! Where's this mud coming from?
This is awful.

How am I going to get clean?

Stop! No! No! I designed you!
You can't turn on me! No.

Help!

Nice work, Garfield.

-You reprogrammed it to...
-Clean sleazy salespeople.

There are a lot of them, you know.

I'll get rid of that robot and get
my money back and...

My money back! I have to get Mr. Sellers
to give me my money back!

Oh, Mr. Sellers! Robot! Come back!

Come on, Odie.
Let's go in and dirty up the place.

Right.
