Looks like Mom gave up and went home. All kids look like angels when they’re sleeping. ;-)

I remember when we forgot the teddy bear at the hotel…
The Arrowhead Hilton was nice enough to mail him to us. There was little sleep until he arrived.

Hey, mom took away the “captain cap” from Hobbes in the 3rd panel. Who’s in charge of the trip now? Guess it’s mom…

This isn’t the ending I thought it was going to be. Another time that Hobbes got lost, Calvin found him with Susie Derkins at a tea party.

runar: In the episode of which you are thinking, Calvin was knocked over by a dog, who ran off with Hobbes. Susie found Hobbes where the dog left him.

Dad’s logic is flawed. I think we saw recently that Calvin has tried to lose himself in the woods and always seems to find his way back, much to his own chagrin.

Dad is giving the impression he doesn’t care, but the truth is he is just as relieved as Mom.

In the fourth panel, is that a sinister smile on Calvin’s face or is Hobbes happy to be home? …. lol

Mum wants it done but expects someone else to do it. Typical? Dad does it but feels as a male that he needs to present a gruff attitude. To allow mother to feel good about her non-participation?

Um, Mom,w ho else would be coming into your house?

Dad’s not coming off too good in this arc. We all know he loves Calvin, but he’s just being a jerk. Course, he might just be trying to curry some extra happy time with Mom. So, maybe not that big a jerk.

I also thought this was the Susie tea party arc.

calvin’s mom stops looking for hobbes 10 minutes after she starts and then when dad gets back she probably makes him rub her feet!:)

Yeah my dad used to say that about me when I was a kid. He’d always say “He’s a good kid…. When he’s sleeping”.

Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson

Bill Watterson’s Calvin and Hobbes has been a worldwide favorite since its introduction in 1985. The strip follows the richly imaginative adventures of Calvin and his trusty tiger, Hobbes. Whether a poignant look at serious family issues or a round of time-travel (with the aid of a well-labeled cardboard box), Calvin and Hobbes will astound and delight you.
