Strip by: Edwin Chee

{Jon is soundly sleeping}
Jon: Z
{Garfield arrives on Jon's bed riding Odie}
Jon: Z
Garfield: Whoa, Simba!
Garfield: {Lifts Jon's head by his hair} Why, it's an ancient ruin of a human being.
SFX: WHUMP!
Garfield: Let's unearth this relic, Simba.
{Odie drags Jon's blanket away}
Garfield: {Lifts Jon's left arm and inspects the hand} This must be a hand with which it used to prepare food.
Jon: Z
Garfield: {Lifts Jon's feet and inspects them} And this must be the feet that carried it to the kitchen.
Jon: Z
{Odie came back with a pickax}
Garfield: Please hand me the pickax, Simba.
Jon: Z

The author writes:

What would happen if Jon needed that beauty rest and can't get out of it? It won't end well for him.
