The narrative assertion
"The Black Guardian's order to throw the Doctor into the void results in Tegan and Striker believing the Doctor is lost (a low point). However, the Doctor reappears later (beat_9cf8538fe3bdeda4), subverting the expectation of finality and reaffirming the victory of resourcefulness and hope over darkness."
