Full plot[]
Calvin, Hobbes, and Socrates are playing Calvinball, unaware Dr. Brainstorm and Jack are watching, planning to attack them. Calvin, Hobbes, and Socrates escape on the wagon, but Dr. Brainstorm follows them. They outwit Dr. Brainstorm by using Calvin duplicates and Dr. Brainstorm tries to escape, accidentally knocking Socrates into the duplicator and accidentally duplicating himself. Calvin becomes very scared, and the two Socrates' run away to do prank work. They prank Andy and Calvin, and plan an elaborate prank which involves ice cream and a swimming pool. However, Socrates falls asleep in the middle of it, and the clone runs him like a drill sergeant. Eventually, the clone gets around to pranking Socrates himself, and Socrates declares a prank war. Meanwhile, Calvin, Hobbes, Andy, and Sherman volunteer to clean up the failed prank by eating the ice cream, and they come up with an idea to charge people for eating in the pool, and see Socrates flying through the air. As they set up, Calvin invites Susie to the ice cream pool, and a blam makes them hug each other. In the pool, everyone is having a blast, including Calvin's parents. The two Socrates' confront Calvin and ask to be un-duplicated. When that happens, Socrates accompanies Calvin and Hobbes to the pool, and Hobbes teases Calvin about him and Susie hugging.
