[edit] Plot
Jon now recognizes that he needs a life, an escape from his boring existence as the guy who arranges his sock drawer. He tries to find some girls around town, but none of them are impressed, and they all find him to be a dweeb. One night, he sees an advertisement on TV about "Lorenzo's School for the Personality Impaired" and decides to go there. He meets a lady named Mona and starts a friendship with her without using any of the techniques they learned in class. Garfield, however, knows that their companionship could soon turn into marriage, and that will mean a kid, which Garfield would hate. Garfield tries to warn Jon only to be put into a trance when Mona scratches his back. Suddenly, Mona sneezes and remembers that she's allergic to cats. Jon decides to take her home, and Garfield chaperones them by sticking on the back window of Jon's car using suction cups, à la the Garfield Stuck On You plush.
