Salamar confirms danger and orders alert

The Doctor and Sarah’s escape from the alien creature’s lair forces Salamar to face the planet’s immediate peril. His observation about the situation crystallizes the threat, while Vishinsky’s decision to sound the crew alarm triggers urgent mobilization. The military base’s fragile authority now confronts a dual crisis: the external predation of the energy creature and the internal threat of unauthorized discovery. The scene marks a decisive shift from reactive evasion to proactive defense, though the choices made here will only deepen the expedition’s instability and the planet’s volatility. key_dialogue: [ SALAMAR: As I thought.
