Transcript:
Rosalyn: "Ok Calvin, listen up" Calvin: "AAA! No! I'm not going to bed! You can't make me!" Rosalyn: "You and I are going to make a deal" Calvin: "A deal?! What kind of deal?? I'm not making any deal!" Rosalyn: "You don't give me ANY trouble tonight, and we'll play a game" Calvin: "What's the game? "Kill the kid"?! No way!" Rosalyn: "Plus, you get to stay up half an hour past your bedtime" Calvin: "Notice how obediently I'm sitting here"

This actually IS the best of the Rosalyn stories — she literally beats him at his own game!

Both Hobbes’ are standing idly by on the side carefully observing Calvin and our comments…

Wow! That was easy, she only had to bribe him with 1/2 hour. Calvin should’ve negotiated for at least an hour!

I always let kids I was babysitting stay up past their bedtime by some length or other. Of course, I never sat a brat like Calvin either.
