7. The McCallister Kids Are Bad At Math
A tragic number of coincidences lead to Kevin being left behind, with the main culprit being that really annoying kid neighbour who come's along and is accidentally counted in Kevins place. A detail thats ridiculously easy to miss is that even if he hadnt arrived, Kevins big sister Megan would have screwed up the headcount anyway; she accidentally counts herself twice outside the van. Buzz isnt much better with numbers, because later when he and Megan are talking about Kevins situation he lists three reasons why nothing bad will happen, which he lists in the following order: A, two and D. Its entirely possible that none of the McCallister children will be accountants when they grow up.
