Guests’ Clothes

A set of civilian garments worn by the Doctor and Sarah Jane upon arrival, treated as temporary property under Solon’s regime. Their removal becomes an act of ritual submission, stripping visitors of autonomy under the guise of hospitality. The clothes—unnamed but implied practical—are confiscated by Condo at Solon’s order, reinforcing the neurosurgeon’s godlike control over even the most intimate artifacts of identity.
