August 20, 1992
August 22, 1992
Transcript:
Calvin: As soon as we turn the lights off, the monsters will come back out from under the bed. They're not going to go away, so I guess we need to find some way to live with them. Hobbes: It's hard to co-exist with things that want to kill you. Calvin: Well we've got to do something. Hobbes: We are. We're staying awake all night with the lights on. Calvin: I wonder if we could set fire to the bed without burning the house down.

Calvin’s belief in monsters under his bed must be stronger now than it was in ‘Yukon Ho!’, since, in that book, he could get rid of the monsters simply by turning on the light.
