Cal feels guilty but not enough to change.

It's hot, he has no friends and the only kid around is his six-year-old brother, Sammy, who can barely throw a basketball as high as the hoop.Ĭal occupies his time by getting his brother to do almost anything: from collecting ants to doing Calvin's chores.
