The clause is - when the thief entered the house
- As it does not represent a complete notion, such a phrase cannot stand alone as a complete sentence.
- Generally, this clause employs the terms whether, whereas, because, then, when, once, since etc
- For example - When he was sick, his teacher gave the exam or Because mom said so, I apologised to Rose..
- Thus, the correct clause in the sentence is - when the thief entered the house
