Snowball Confrontation — Good Cop/Bad Cop at Donna's

The staff's cab serves as the mobile staging platform's arrival point and as the waiting escape route. The driver is told to wait; the cab idles during the confrontation and later takes the group—physically and narratively—away from the public exposure back to institutional space.

Before: Driving down the residential street and stopping to let staff exit; then idling at curb awaiting return.

After: Occupied by the staff and Donna; carries them away from the scene after the confrontation.
