Brigade Leader Lethbridge-Stewart

Cautiously skeptical, with underlying tension between her duty to the regime and her instinct to question the Doctor’s motives. Her emotional state is a mix of professional detachment and quiet unease, as she grapples with the implications of the Doctor’s knowledge.

Conflicted and resigned, with a hint of moral unease. Stewart’s emotional state is one of internal tension; he questions the Doctor’s claims but ultimately defers to Stahlman 2, suggesting a man torn between his role as an enforcer and any residual humanity. His hesitation in reporting the Doctor’s request to speak to Gold hints at his awareness of the regime’s injustices, but his final compliance—ordering the Doctor’s removal—reveals his prioritization of survival over morality.

Cold, calculating dominance—he derives satisfaction from exerting control, viewing the Doctor as a threat to be eliminated rather than a person in distress.

Cold, calculating authority—his emotional state is one of bureaucratic indifference, masked by a thin veneer of procedural justice. There is no anger or fear, only the certainty of his power and the regime’s absolute control. The Doctor’s warnings are irrelevant; the system must be upheld.

Cold and authoritative, with a sense of superiority rooted in his unquestioned power. There’s no hint of doubt or empathy—only loyalty to the Republic and distrust of the Doctor’s claims. His emotional state is controlled and detached, reflecting his role as an enforcer of the regime’s will. The only moment of urgency comes with the telephone call, but even then, his demeanor remains composed and in command.

Shocked and defensively indignant, masking a creeping sense of vulnerability as the regime’s infallibility is called into question.

Simmering frustration with a flicker of doubt—his grip on control is slipping, and he resents the Doctor for exposing his regime’s vulnerabilities.

Authoritative and unyielding, with a simmering concern over the Doctor's defiance and Stahlman's erratic behavior.

Tense and defensive—his authority is challenged by Stahlman’s erratic orders, and the Doctor’s warnings force him to confront the possibility that the crisis is beyond his control.

None (off-screen, invoked as a threat).

Not directly observable, but his implied presence carries a sense of cold, calculating menace. Shaw’s threat to turn the Doctor over to him suggests that Stewart operates outside the bounds of her own (already harsh) methods, representing the regime’s most extreme measures.
