Basic Trope: City under a dome.

  • Straight: Bepistown is encased by a large glassy dome.
  • Exaggerated: Bepistown is covered by a dome, a slightly larger dome, a tarp covering that dome, a glass box, and one more dome encasing all that.
  • Justified:
    • Bepistown is underwater and its residents breathe air. The dome keeps the air in so the Bepians don’t drown.
    • Bepistown, Mare Tranquillitatis, Moon: Without the dome you'd suffocate.
  • Inverted: Bepistown is on top of a dome.
  • Subverted: Bepistown looks like it has a dome over it, but that’s just a hologram made by the local government.
  • Double Subverted: There’s a real dome that’s a couple feet larger just outside the hologram.
  • Invoked: A construction team is assembled to construct a dome over Bepisville.
  • Defied: Mallory smashes the dome with her signature mallet.
