[First photo]
Jon: Good evening, Lori, my dear. Our dinner awaits.
Jon: Your steak, madam.
{Lori looks increasingly horrified throughout the strip}
SFX/Odie: Pant pant pant
Jon: Odie! Get out of here!
Garfield: RRRRR
Jon: Gimme that!
Jon: Let go! Let go! Let go!
Lori: AYIIIIEEEEE!!!
Jon: What's with her?
Garfield: Pet hater
[Second photo]
Jon: Guess what I got at a garage sale today, Garfield?
Garfield: You got my attention.
Jon: Tah-dah!
{Garfield looks unamused}
Jon {smiling}: Isn't it great?
Garfield: That diet must've been murder, huh fella?
Garfield: I can't believe Jon actually bought that thing. What good is it?
{Garfield has an idea}
Garfield: Maw! Come quick! The cow's sick!
{The cow skull is on Odie's head}
[Third photo]
Jon: Hey mom, guess what I got at a garage sale?
Jon: I bought one of those cow skulls like you see in the old westerns.
Garfield {snickering}: Behind you, Jon!
{Odie appears, with the cow skull still on his head}
Jon: Hang on, mom, I think I'm about to scream or something.
{Garfield has almost lost his ability to contain laughter}
Jon: Garfield, did you know everything evolves from a lower life form?
Garfield: I didn't know that
Garfield: Why of course! It all makes sense now!
Garfield {pointing to Odie and a rock}: Rocks evolved from dogs.

Jon: Garfield! What are you doing?!
Garfield: I'm unraveling your dental floss.
Jon: I hate that!
Garfield: Oh, very well. Tomorrow we'll do something you like.
Jon: Here you go Garfield!
{Jon presents Garfield with a wind-up mouse}
SFX: CRUNCH
Garfield {looking at smashed wind-up mouse}: It doesn't have much of a sense of humor, does it?

SFX: ZZZ-ZZF-ZZZ-ZZ
{Garfield wakes up}
SFX: ZZZ-ZZF-ZZZ-ZZF-ZZZ
Garfield: Must be Monday.
{Someone is sawing a hole in the table under Garfield's bed}
{Garfield is eating}
Jon: You know, Garfield...
Jon: I wouldn't say you're fat, but...
{Garfield stuffs his empty food bowl in Jon's mouth}
Garfield: Then don't.
[Seventh & final photo]
Jon: I bought you a surprise today, Garfield.
{Garfield anticipates said surprise eagerly}
Jon {smiling}: It's a sweater made especially for you!
{The sweater says "WIDE LOAD"; Garfield is now mad}
{The sweater is stuffed in Jon's mouth; note the sleeves coming out his ears}
Garfield: YAWN
{Garfield climbs out of bed to find the blanket standing by itself}
{Garfield holds a completely firm blanket}
Garfield: I think the old blanket is due for a wash.
