Garfield, long-running champion of Cartoon World's Fun Fest talent show, believes he can't lose with his winning comedy routine. Problem is, his sidekick (and girlfriend) Arlene wants to change the act. When Garfield refuses, Arlene partners up with the super suave new cat in town, Ramon, for a showstopping Tango.

With hours ticking away until showtime, Garfield and Odie set out to find the magic pond of funny water within the Mystical Forest. In a hilarious journey of riddles, jokes, and a meeting with Freddy the Frog can Garfield learn the lessons of true comedy and make it back in time to capture first prize and win Arlene back?
