Mom left Calvin alone while grocery shopping? Of course, taking him to the store would create more challenges, and Hobbes was there to protect him, but he is a bit young.
Mom was ALWAYS home when I got home from school. Except once. I went through the entire house looking for her. By the time I was in the bedrooms, I was totally panicked and totally expecting to find her murdered, dead on the floor somewhere. Then I heard her come in the back door. She had been next-door talking to a neighbor and got back a few minutes late. It took a while to calm me down and after that she was ALWAYS home we kids got home from school!

Wanna bet, Mom, that it has something to do with Hobbes being left out on the porch too?

Or Calvin was first from the car when it got home from the store. Little kids never do that.

A 6 year old should not come home to an empty house. Even for 5 minutes if mom is running late. And she left the door unlocked.

Notice in panel four that the doorknob is on the left but in the last panel it’s on the right? It’s the magic Flipping Door!

I’m up to the end of 1988 on the past strips. Only a couple more years till I’m caught up.

I’m amazed at the judgmental over-analysis of the characters in a comic strip. It’s mind-numbing to read.

@Mourdac Look again. Calvin got off the school bus and knew Hobbes would be lying in wait… Mom looks none too happy.

Obvious Question coming-Why doesn’t she have a key to her own house?
