Re: Dropping In
Firefox spends a bit of time studying Becka's aura. Even at this distance, and with the pollution of excited fans spilling out into the manasphere, Firefox gets a fairly strong sense for Becka. She's currently feeling bored (but cute) and a little peckish. Her handler, Baz, is more on edge. Becka is, after all, a literal man-eater, as adorable as she is.
She can scope out the other contestants; the handsome one, the excited one, the underdog, the ambitious one, and so on, with each one reading the excitement, the adrenaline, then the soul-crushing as Simone chews them up and spits them out (Becka does not seem especially hard hit, owing to her very strong internal locus of control, her fantastic courage, and her not understanding language).
The security sorcerer does seem to notice her. While there's nothing illegal about paying customers using astral perception, it's enough for him to give you the hairy eyeball.
(It sounds as though your current plan doesn't rely on the other contestants, so I won't go into detail. If you choose to, you can consider this information available.)
