This question is about "who" or "to see" or both. Possible changes are these:
When Walter leaves the house, whom does he go to see? [whom is the object form of "who"]
When Walter leaves the house, whom does he go see? [the infinitive form of "see" but without the "to"--known as the "bare infinitive" by grammar experts]
If you see this on a grammar test, you definitely want to use "whom" but "see" and "to see" are both correct.

Michael--
Your answer is a nice response to what appears to be a flip question. The fellow just posts that sentence but he doesn't ask a question about it. He isn't serious about it, it isn't really a question, and it deserves your response that perhaps this line (so poorly written) is from some work of literature. I decided to play it straight to see if the guy would acknowledge the answer. He hasn't. So now he has two answers and the sarcastic one is most likely the best one! Maybe the student can look for that great novel with Bobo as the main character!
