The Great Garfield-Green Acres Crossover
Episode 2: "Dahling, there's a strange cat on our lawn!"
Once the brilliant light fainted at the Ziffel house, Mr. Douglas was still a bit skeptical, although amazed that a pig could create such an amazing light from a toaster. DING! The toast popped out of the toaster. "Why thank you, Arnold!" Mr. Ziffel said, grabbing a piece of toast. "Wait a minute, this isn't the toast you put in it! This toast is, well, different!" "Whatever. Come on Lisa, Let's go home. I have work on the farm that needs to be done." Mr. Douglas said. "Oh, but Oleevahr dear, don't you believe in Arnold's experiment?" Lisa asked, following him out the door. Oliver shook his head. "These time-dimensional portals are only in cheap sci-fi movies!" he replied. When they walked up to their house, they noticed Garfield and friends on their front yard. "Dahling, there's a strange cat on our front lawn!" Mrs. Douglas said. "Who are you?" Olivar asked Jon. "I'm Jon Arbuckle, and this is my dog, Odie, and my cat, Garfield." replied the shaken Arbuckle. "Well, come on in." Lisa said, welcoming the strangers. "But Lisa," Oliver began, but he shook his head. The five of them walked into the old Haney place, now the Douglas residence. Eb walked in at that moment from the kitchen and instantly recognized Garfield. "Hey look! By golly, it's my favourite fat, lazy cat, Grafield! And his pals, Odie and Jon!" he said, shaking hands (and paws) with them. "It's sure nice to meetcha!" "The pleasure's all mine." Garfield replied. "Now can we eat? I'm hungry!" With an uncanny sense, Lisa knew what Garfield was saying and said, "Why don't we all have hot cakes for supper?" Mr. Douglas groaned. "Can't you make spaghetti?" he asked. "Why? What's wrong with my hot cakes?" asked the insulted Mrs. Douglas. "Uhh, erm, nothing! Just a little change would be nice!" Oliver replied, and Lisa nodded, and started to cook the spaghetti. "Could you, perhaps, make lasagne?" Garfield asked. "Oh, but Garfield, I don't know how to make that, but I guess it wouldn't hurt to try!" Mrs. Douglas replied.
"Wow! Gawrsh! A real celebrity!" Eb said, staring at the orange, striped fat cat. "He's from the comics, you know!" Mr. Douglas looked through the newspaper and found the comics section, pulled it out, and showed it to Garfield. "That's you!" Eb said. "You sure insult Jon a lot!" Oliver said. Jon looked at him and Lisa and remembered why they looked so familiar. "Hey! I know you! You're the Douglas', from Green Acres!" he said. "It's a TV show!" "Wow! I'm on TV?" Eb said, looking around for the camera. "Where's the camera? I'm ready for my close-up, Mr. Deville!" Garfield thought on this. "I heard you talking about some time-dimensional vortex. Whoever created it must've sucked us up into this dimension of eternal reruns, also know as tvland. So, Jon, Odie, and I are from the second dimension while you are here in the fourth dimension. We were sucked up from are time and place, so that means we better get back!" he said, and Lisa nodded. "Well, what did he say!?" Oliver asked. He couldn't read the minds of animals. "Garfield said that he was from zee second deemension and vee are from zee fourth deemension and eet is also known as tvland. It is also called zee deemension of eternal reruns. So vee are really a tvshow!" Lisa repeated for Jon and Oliver. "Oh yeah, and this means we're all fictional characters in a fictional world!" Garfield added, then repeated by Lisa. "But this doesn't make any sense!" Oliver said. "I-uh-oh, nevermind!" "It's important that we get back to our dimension as soon as possible, because if we aren't there for future generations, who will?" Jon said. "Bark! Arrarf arf!" Odie said. "You are absolutely right, Odie!" Lisa said, followed by the excalmation of Mr. Douglas, "What did he say!?" "He said zat if zey aren't zhere for future shenerations, zey shildren will only have second best comics to read in zeir Sunday's and Daily's!" Mrs. Douglas repeated. "Well, the toaster sucked us from our time period as well." Jon said. "We're from 2004, which is why we look a little different than back in the 70s, right now. We went through a few different styles, but just two, until we came to this one." "But you can stay for supper, right, Jon?" Lisa asked, Jon and Garfield nodded. They hadn't eaten all day, since it was morning in their comical dimension. Lisa then came in with a big ball of white goo on a fork. "Here iz zee pasgetti!" Lisa said. "Uh, dear, it's 'spaghetti'." Oliver corrected her. "And how did the spaghetti come out like that!?" Mrs. Douglas shrugged her shoulders. "Eat up, everyone!" It looked so icky, even Garfield passed up on firsts! "Uh oh, I think sumthin's wrong with Garfield, he's almost always hunrgy!" Eb said. "No, I'm fine, I just had a big breakfast, that's all." Garfield replied. It the spaghetti was like this, and Mrs. Douglas cooked like this everyday, no wonder Mr. Douglas passed up on hot cakes! The same was Jon's excuse, and Odie just whimpered, nudging the blob with his nose. "Mmm, this is, good." Oliver said, pretending to like it. "Good, because I have more on zee stove!" Lisa replied. "Oh no, Lisa, I'm stuffed!" her husband said, pretending to be full. "Well, we shouldd really get back to our time and dimension, now." Jon said. "Aww, but do you really have to go?" Eb asked, finishing his 'spaghetti'. "Yeah, it's a good idea to leave as soon as possible." "Hey, since you're from the future, could you tell us what it's like?" Jon was about to tell them, but when he saw Garfield shaking his head, he changed his mind. They then walked out the door when Mr. Haney's truck of junk came to a halt. "Helllo, Mr. And Mrs. Douglas?" Mr. Haney said, stepping out of his truck, then noticing Garfield. "Could I sell you some gen-u-ine la-san-ya for your cee-leb-ri-ty geust?" he asked. Will Garfield & friends, and the Douglas' make it to the Ziffel place, or will Haney hold them up with all his junk? Find out next time, on...The Great Garfield-Green Acres Crossover!
