Patient in the Adjacent Bed (Abducted Patient)

A Moonbase crew member admitted to sickbay with the mysterious illness sweeping the base. He occupies the bed next to Jamie McCrimmon under Polly's care. Stricken and unconscious, he represents the vulnerable human personnel targeted amid the Cybermen crisis. His plight draws the Doctor's attention to the invasion's human cost, positioning him within the base's medical ward hierarchy. Notably, he resists abduction with physical struggle, revealing defiance against superior mechanical strength before being carried off helplessly, which alerts companions like Polly and Jamie to the hidden alien threat.
