Queue
The Queue is decorated with several Calvin and Hobbes relics, including framed Sunday strips, storyboards from the TV movie Follow That Tiger!, and an Infamous photo of Bill Watterson working on a strip (”DAD” is etched on the frame as a joke that Watterson created Calvin and Hobbes). There is also a TV that plays one out of four 12-hour episode reels.

Pre-Show
Before the main attraction, guests are ushered into a pre-show area made to look like Calvin’s living room. Calvin and Hobbes formally introduce the viewers to Calvin and Hobbes 4D. Calvin receives a phone call from Norman that Mr. Marcus has escaped from the Phantom Zone. Calvin then says that technically, He didn’t escape from the Phantom Zone due to international copyright laws, causing Norman to hang up. Mr. Marcus, in a wispy blue form, shows up on screen and demonstrates the things that he can do now he’s a ghost. He then proceeds to take his head off, terrifying Hobbes. The screen bugs out and a Technical difficulties card with Bill Watterson’s rotating head appears. A framed picture of Calvin’s dad, which is actually a digital screen, tells the viewers to leave the area and explains the safety rules before returning to Normal.
