* In one arc, Calvin tries to wheedle out of a school assignment (write and illustrate a story), by going forward in time with Hobbes from 6:30 to 8:30, when he will have already written the paper -- only to find his 8:30 self had had the same idea and not actually written the report. Calvin teams up with the 8:30 Calvin and they both travel back to ''7:30'' in an attempt to force ''that'' Calvin to do the homework. To put it simply, things end up escalating into a MeleeATrois.[[note]]Or would have, but the 7:30 Calvin pointed out that, since they're all the same Calvin, the 6:30 and 8:30 Calvins would suffer anything they did to him.[[/note]] Meanwhile, the 6:30 Hobbes and the 8:30 Hobbes write Calvin's story and give it to him when he returns, resolving the whole mess. What they don't mention is that the story was about how he tried to avoid doing the assignment. What makes this funny? At the end, Calvin is furious at Hobbes' prank, only to discover that the report was ''great'', earning an '''A+''', and the arc ends with Calvin ''still'' trying to be mad at Hobbes for the principle of the thing as Hobbes gets starry eyed over a possible career as an author.
