The scene opens on Team 3, a motley crew including Brick, Cork, and others, huddled in tense conversation. Bone stands isolated twenty feet away, an unexplained boundary enforced by silence. Telescope, a blue lens with white oval eyes, says little. His focus is singular: every thirty seconds, he swivels to verify Bone hasn't breached the distance. The tension is palpable as they discuss their hatred for the distant figure and their love for victory, while Telescope merely observes, paranoid and precise.
