Plot Hole #2: How did "Old Man" Marley know Kevin was at the Murphy's house at the end of the movie? Technically, wasn't "Old Man" Marley trespassing too? On top of all that, I thought "Old Man" Marley was at the church listening to his grand daughter sing?
Plot Hole #3: Why didn't "Old Man" Marley call the police after he rescued Kevin from Harry and Marv? At the time, the old man had no idea that Kevin had already called 9-1-1. After the police arrived, why didn't the old man tell the cops what happened?
Plot Hole #4: After rescuing Kevin, why didn't "Old Man" Marley ask Kevin what he was doing in the Murphy's house?
Plot Hole #5: After rescuing Kevin, "Old Man" Marley tells Kevin "Let's get you home." This implies that "Old Man" Marley took Kevin back to his house. Why didn't the old man attempt to consult with Kevin's parents? Wouldn't it have made sense for the old man to try to explain that their son was inside someone else's house being assaulted by burglars? Wouldn't the old man have discovered at that point that obviously Kevin was home alone?
Plot Hole #6: Early in the movie, the cops go to the McCallister's to check on Kevin. The cop knocks on the front door a couple of times and then just leaves. It had already been established that the garage door was open. Why didn't the cop try to go in through the garage or knock on the door leading from the garage into the house? Also, later on in the movie Marv is able to simply open the basement door and walk in. Knowing that, couldn't the cop have done the same? Why did the cop only check the front door? Also, why did Kevin hide under the bed from the cop (a good guy), but not the burglars (bad guys)?
