Explanation[edit | edit source]

In the original, Jon just turns the light on once, hurting Garfield's eyes by doing so while his eyes were adjusted to low light conditions. Here, Jon appears to be throwing a lightswitch rave, much as The Cheat does in Strong Bad email #45: techno. The title is a pun on the "obligatory old movie quote from some sci-fi movie" (which Matt Chapman says Mike made up) that is heard in the music. The author's note is a paraphrase of what Strong Bad says to The Cheat when he discovers what he's doing.

The author writes:[edit | edit source]

The Jon is grounded.

Original strip: 1981-10-24.
