Scene 1: The camping trip[]
(Calvin is reading a comic book. Hobbes is watching Power Rangers Jungle Fury. Mom is writing a letter. Then a duffel bag flies into the room. The three look up.)
Calvin: What was that?
(Two more duffel bags fly into the room, followed by three fishing rods, a bag with the word TENT, and a cooler.)
Mom: Uh-oh.
(Dad enters in camping gear.)
Dad: Everyone ready to go camping?
Calvin: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HOBBES! MOM! RUN FOR YOUR LIVES! CALL THE HUMANE SOCIETY! WE'RE RUNNING TO ORLANDO!
Dad: C'mon everyone! Let's hit the road!
Mom: Actually, dear, I have to stay here.
Calvin: TRAITOR!
Mom: I have to clean for some guests I invited over tomorrow.
Calvin: BENEDICT MOTHER!
Dad: Well, can it wait? Reschedule or something.
Calvin: WE'RE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER!
Mom: I can't.
Calvin: DESERTER!
Dad: Why not?
Calvin: WEASEL!
Mom: Because he's your boss.
Calvin: SNEAK!
Dad: OK. Have fun scrubbing.
(Mom grins smugly at Calvin, who glares at her.)
Dad: Well, looks like we have some real father-son time now, huh, Calvin?
Calvin (through gritted teeth): Gee, Dad, that's swell.
Scene 2: The stowaway[]
(Dad throws all the stuff into the car, and Calvin throws the Hypercube in the car. Socrates and Andy are watching them.)
Andy: What's going on?
Calvin: We're going on another one of Dad's torture weeks to an unknown location.
Socrates: Where is it?
Calvin: You've heard of Dante's Inferno, right?
(Andy and Socrates nod.)
Calvin: That's where we're going.
Andy: Oof! Stinks to be you.
Dad: Come on, Calvin! We're leaving now!
Calvin: Bye, Andy. Bye, Socrates.
