  "summary": "Patrick McIntyre and his team at Trivandi are facing a tight deadline to transform the OVO Hydro from a netball court back into a concert venue for Simple Minds' performance. With only six hours to complete the task, the team must remove seating, anti-doping rooms, broadcast rigs, and reinstall power, water, and toilets. This rapid turnaround is necessary due to the compressed nature of the Commonwealth Games, which have seen the Hydro host both opening and closing ceremonies, as well as all netball fixtures. Despite the challenge, Patrick is confident in his team's ability to complete the task, as they have already tackled the process in reverse during the Games' opening ceremony.",
