Summary
Calvin and Hobbes are in Calvin's room; where they soon find a dusty photo album with panels of them from the comic. Calvin's mom (who is now named Mrs. Jacobson) yells at them below to clean his the attic. Calvin asks if he could look at the book. Calvin's mom was fine with it, as long as they help her with cleaning the attic. They do so, and then open the book. After looking at the panel where Stupendous Man attacks Rosalyn (aka Babysitter Girl), they wonder how they first met. Hobbes remembers the story, and tells it to Calvin. (The full story Hobbes tells can be seen here.)
