Garfield in Madagascar trilogy

Chapter 9

The others walked back to the lake. Marty said "What have I done? This is a nightmare! And it's all my fault. Now, because of me, we've lost Alex."

Melman asked "Well, what are we going to do?"

Gloria said "We'll find a way to help him. That's what we'll do."

Melman said "Oh! OK."

Gloria said "Come on, we are New Yorkers, right?"

Marty said "Yeah."

Gloria said "We're tough. We're gritty."

Marty said "Yeah!"

Gloria said "We're adaptable!"

Marty said "Yeah!!"

Gloria said "And we are not going to lay down like a bunch of Melmans!"

Melman said "No, we're not." They heard a fog horn "Oh. Garfield."

Garfield said "That was not me, OK? That was the boat. The boat!"

Marty said "The boat? The boat's come back for us! Come on, guys, we got to flag it down."

Marty, Garfield, Vic, odie, Melman and Gloria race to the beach where they saw the boat.

Marty said "There it is!

Melman said "Hey, over here!"

Garfield said "Hey!"
Vic said "Over here!"

Gloria said "Over here!"

Marty said "Over here! Over here! Yo! Yo! Yo!"

Gloria said "Melman, give me a lift. Hurry up! Lift me up!"

Marty said "Help! Help! Help!"

Garfield said "Over here!"
Vic said "We're here!"

Melman said "Oh, my neck. My neck. My neck. You guys. Over here!"

Gloria said "Over here! Melman! Steady. This way!"

Marty said "Over here!"

Melman said "You have no idea how much this hurts."

Marty said "Hey, boat! We're over here!"

Gloria said "Look! It's turning! It's coming back! It's coming back! It's coming back!"

Melman said "Yes! This way! Come on! Come on, baby! WHOO!! Yes, you guys!"

Marty said "You guys flag down that boat. I'll go get Alex."

Garfield stopped Marty by holding his tail "Whoa! Hold on there. You cannot go back there by yourself."

Marty said "Aw, come on. I know Alex. He hears we're rescued, he'll snap right out of it."

Melman said "The people are coming. They can help us."

Gloria said "Melman's right. The people will know what to do. Now, come on. We got to flag down that boat."

The boat got close then it landed. The penguins land on the beach.

Skipper said "Now, this is more like it."

Gloria said "You?! Oh, ma... Where are the people?"

Skipper said "We killed them and ate their livers." Gloria looks shocked "Got you, didn't I? Just kidding, doll, the people are fine. They're on a slow lifeboat to China. Hey, I know you two. Where's that psychotic lion and our monochromatic friend?"

Melman said "Marty? He's right...." they realized Marty was gone "Where did he go? He was right behind us."

Gloria groaned "He went back for Alex. He's going to get himself killed!"
