[edit] Episode recap

Garfield discusses the concept of mini-malls, and he states that the malls are actually grown, not built. A worker plants a mini-mall seed in an empty location, and then Odie turns on the hose and irrigates the land. After a few minutes, the mini-mall emerges, and Garfield takes the viewers on a tour.

Odie interrupts Garfield twice by trying to tell him something, but Garfield doesn’t pay attention because he’s busy with the tour. At one point, Garfield goes into a frozen yogurt shop and picks a number for service (his number is 3,478, and the clerk is at number 3 although Garfield is the only customer in the shop). After Garfield’s number finally gets called, the clerk offers him a free sample, but Garfield is upset that there is no lasagna-flavored yogurt and throws the cone in the clerk’s face.

Odie bothers Garfield again, and Garfield finally pays attention to him and learns that the hose water is still on. The mini-mall then floods and floats away downstream. Garfield and Odie then canoe after it, but it ends up drifting out to sea. Garfield then decides to go back and grow another mall; then he ends the lecture. Meanwhile, the mall washes up on an island where a man had been shipwrecked, so he runs into the yogurt shop and picks a number. He ends up with number 2,912, and the clerk is at number 6.

[edit] Quotes

Garfield: From time to time on this show, we like to bring you something a little educational. [Remote control pops up] No, no! Don’t change channels! It’s not that educational.

Garfield: “What is a mini-mall?” you ask? A mini-mall is a whole bunch of stores you’d never go to, except that they’re all together so it’s convenient.

Garfield: This is a mini-market. This is a mini-cafeteria. And this is a mini-pharmacy. We were going to show you a Minnie Mouse, but she’s on another show.

Garfield: What!? No lasagna flavor!?
