All he wants to do is sleep the day away. Jon tries to convince Garfield to help him with the preparations, but Garfield refuses to budge.

As Jon leaves to buy the turkey, Garfield continues to laze about in his bed until Odie comes into the room. Garfield sees the joy on Odie's face and realizes how much Odie loves Thanksgiving. Garfield is touched by Odie's enthusiasm and decides to help Jon with the preparations.

Together, Garfield and Odie start preparing the dinner. They make cranberry sauce, pumpkin pie, and green beans. Garfield even plays chef and creates his own dish, a lasagne, which he is convinced will be the highlight of the dinner.

As Jon comes back with the turkey, the trio starts cooking the meal. But as they are about to enjoy their feast, disaster strikes. Jon accidentally drops the turkey out of the window, and it's immediately consumed by a pack of roaming dogs. The trio is devastated as they realize that there won't be any turkey on the table.

But Garfield has a plan. He remembers that his grandmother always used to make a big meal using whatever was in the pantry. Garfield, Odie, and Jon raid the pantry and come up with an eclectic Thanksgiving dinner consisting of pizza, popcorn, jellybeans, and Garfield's homemade lasagne.

As the trio sits down to eat, they realize that Thanksgiving is all about being together and appreciating what you have. They may not have a traditional dinner, but they have each other, and that's all that matters.
