 /* The chorus cutaway. This is our look at the audience for the first time, and it plays SILENT — no spoken lines, no shouted lines. All characterization through visual beat, posture, gesture, stitched over ambient crowd murmur that never resolves into words. Wide shot across tiered stone bleachers; the Gumball Rule is in full force — each creature rendered in a different idiom, different universes stitched onto the same bench. 2D, 3D, painted, chibi, photographic, sketchy. Do not homogenize. We ride a slow pan, picking out faces in order, each holding one short beat. No dialogue. Music or ambient wash only. */

Brass tray stacked with ceremonial courtly hot dogs balanced on one hand. He's working the aisle with a practiced upward grin, tossing a dog three rows up. It is caught.

 - **The courtroom.** Rain's private throne chamber. Catmull-Baroque ornament on concrete substrate, MOTD frame high on the back wall, obsidian throne on a dais, one throne-room pet (**BD** — cursed-cute liquid-flesh dragonling) on a cushion beside the throne. No bleachers in here. No sand floor. No bubble. The contestants are placed on the lower stone circle in front of the dais for the rules speech, not in the colosseum.
-- **The colosseum.** A separate full-stadium amphitheatre — ringed stone bleachers around a central sand floor, subscriber-count banners, emote gargoyles, the gilded jumbotron on brass rigging above, the **bubble on its iron cradle** at the center of the sand. This is where the chorus (Branndon, the noncriticals, pirate-protogen, foxy, basedgymrat, miclbero, cameoqueen86, rayne8856, and the rest of the Gumball-stitched crowd) sits. Rain is **not** in the colosseum — he watches from the throne next door.

 - **The wall-reveal.** At Rain's cue during the rules speech, the **right-hand wall of the courtroom dissolves into transparency**, silently, from a single point outward. Ornament outlines remain ghosted at the perimeter; the stone frame holds; only the middle has gone clear. Beyond the transparency is a total dreamscape **black** — no stars, no horizon, no atmosphere — with the colosseum **floating unsupported** at middle distance, dream-logic.
 - **The descending staircase.** Also at Rain's cue, a broad flight of gilded-edged stone steps **sinks into existence** from the floor to the right of the throne and continues out through the newly-transparent wall, arcing gently down and away across the void toward the colosseum. No railings, no supports, no anchor; it simply is. Contestants descend it in single file (Azure first per Rain's order).
 - **The under-bleacher approach.** The staircase lands in the colosseum's lower ring, in the shadow of the overhanging stone bleachers. The aperture is cut into the bubble's shell so that the **front-row bleachers hang directly above it**. Chorus feet / hooves / claws / boots are visible through the gaps as the contestants walk the last ten paces to the aperture — the audience is directly overhead, waiting. This is the literal meaning of "the aperture is underneath the bleachers."

 - **Crossing.** **Warp-rescales** the contestant into the interior world. One step out, one step in. No transition VFX on the contestant themselves; the scale shift is shown by cutting from the outside wide (contestant next to a ten-meter bubble) to the inside wide (contestant next to a full-size forest tree).
 - **Seal.** The aperture seals behind the last crosser. During the match it does not re-open. Reconstituted dead contestants emerge from a separate **recovery bay** accessed via a side door on the colosseum wall, not via the bubble.
 - **Bug-drones at launch.** At the moment of seal, Rain triggers the bug-drones; the swarm streams from its brass-latticed hive on the iron cradle and dives through the final dilating seam an instant before it closes. This is the last thing to cross the aperture.
