Strip by: Sloublues

Jon: I've been thinking...
Garfield: We're bachelors, baby!
{Jon turns to look at Garfield in surprise}
Garfield: Sorry, I panicked.
Jon: Ahem... I've been thinking...
Garfield: Wow! And they said it couldn't be done!

The author writes:

It happens to the best of actors. You're on the stage, the cameras are rolling, it's your turn to deliver dialogue... and your mind goes blank. There are those who can ad-lib convincingly, but as we've seen previously, Garfield isn't one of them. And as in that strip, Jon has little patience for his fellow actor's shortcomings.

Actually, I didn't remember the existence of #1637 when I made this. I just saw the original and thought, "Hmm, that looks like a blown take."
