Dramatic Irony is irony based on you knowing something the characters don't know. If you've ever seen a horror movie, or a Nicholas Sparks romantic drama, you know what I'm talking about. Examples would be knowing that the blonde character is about to open the door to the room that Jason is waiting in, or the husband coming home to see his wife when we clearly know she remarried while he was off.
So, asides are the main way a storyteller is able to communicate dramatic irony for tension, weather it be dramatic or comedic. Lets go back to the Friday the 13th analogy. The main story involves the teenagers at camp Crystal Lake. So while we'll have a scene fleshing out their characters in the dining room, we'll cut away to an "aside", or scene/plotline that's not directly related to the main plot, of Jason crawling in the window to the bathroom. We then cut back to the main shot, where the blonde character says she needs to relieve herself. Everybody laughs, and as she walks away, we see Jason inching towards the door with machete in hand. The side-plot, or "asides" of Jason getting in the room, builds the dramatic irony of us knowing the blonde is going to die, but the characters don't know that yet as the asides were out of their realm of perspective.
I hope this helps!

Based on the stage directions, An alien
does "Figure One"
Explanation:
Maple Street is full of children playing and adults chatting as the shadow falls, followed by a blanket and a burst of colour. Everybody knows, however they believe r]]] and easily restart their tasks. The inhabitants quickly learned that their electricity had gone off, impacting stoves, lawn mowers, vehicles and computers. They're meeting in the street to address the case. Pete Van Horn, pounded in his bib caps, volunteers to move across to Floral Lane, on the next lane, and see whether it's influenced as well. His friends, Steve Brand and Charlie Farnsworth, plan to go to town, but Tommy, a neighbourhood child, encourages them not to go.
Tommy has read the stories of an alien invasion that has created similar issues, so he claims the aliens don't want anybody out of the driveway. Tommy continues that in the plot, aliens are acting as a family that seems to be human, but are explorers, and the power loss that they create is intended to divide the community. The adults are incredulous, assuring him that the trigger is normal, probably the product of sunspots. Charlie wondered whether Pete Van Horn was able to make it to Floral Road.
