The law of the court given physical form. Referee uses rule enforcement mechanics to bench opponents, block any shot in its zone, and stage a viral cutscene awakening that dominates the highlight reel.

You Ladies Alright?
Cutscene opener — the Ref pulls up in his club car, hops out smooth, and hits the viral 'You ladies alright?' pose after snatching the ball.
