Full plot
Calvin and Hobbes are playing football, which slowly turns into Calvinball, and Socrates walks by eating an ice cream sandwich. Socrates tells Calvin and Hobbes about a circus that came into town, to which Hobbes expresses his disdain. A bell comes up, which Calvin thinks it's an ice cream truck, but they find out it's a bunch of circus trucks. A box flies out of one of the circus trucks and Calvin alerts his mom, who doesn't believe him. Socrates shows up and convinces Calvin a monkey is inside the box. When Calvin goes to the box, he is cornered by Moe and his gang and Calvin loses the peg to the box. Moe prepares to beat up Calvin when a monkey attacks them. Calvin decides to show Hobbes, but Hobbes says Calvin made a huge mistake opening the box. Sure enough, the monkey attacks Hobbes as Calvin is searching for a peg. The monkey then goes to Susie and rips up her dolls. Calvin and Hobbes notice and go after the monkey, who is destroying Sherman's lab. The monkey destroys Rosalyn's house and attacks Moe again. Finally, the monkey goes to Socrates' mansion where Calvin and Hobbes track him. Calvin duplicates some bananas to distract the monkey while they get the crate. They trap the monkey and return it to the circus. In the end, the ringmaster gives Calvin a free circus ticket and the other characters all get in trouble for actions the monkey caused.
