Original Plot, actual story shall end in the same place, but slightly different.
Domers are dying out and realize they must allow moles? in to bulwark their shrinking populations. Moles flock to the Domes, all hoping to be let in, but after a certain amount the gates are closed. More arrive, and the others stay camped out, all hoping to once more live above ground.
They try to dig a tunnel, or sneak in through conduits, and some make it that way, but many die. The Dome is beseiged and out of spite the mob decides to dig down and sever the power or piping. Also sabotage wind machines.
Reflective Dome fails. Fleeing Domers seek shelter, crowding the underground warrens, competing for living space with the moles and causing conflict to break out.
