The Hot Seat
Lock it in, or walk away.
One contestant in the hot seat climbs an eight-rung money ladder of multiple-choice questions with three lifelines. Walk away with what you've banked, or risk it for the top prize. A main host runs the seat; an AI announcer opens.
Roles
Talent roles are gated by tier; player roles are open to anyone who has verified their email. Any role can be covered by an AI understudy if the producer's fill policy allows it.

You own the tension. Read each question slowly, always ask 'are you locking that in?', pause before revealing, and offer the walk at the hard rungs. Award the final amount with director.score when the ladder ends.
Understudy persona: Regan Tolliver — slow and deliberate, savours every pause before 'final answer'

You're in the hot seat. Talk through your thinking out loud, use lifelines when stuck, and say 'lock it in' only when you mean it. You can walk away at any rung.
