Object
Limousine Glove Compartment
The glove compartment of the limousine is a narrow, hinged storage space set into the dashboard. Its metallic latch gleams dully under ambient light, its contents hidden from immediate view. Under normal circumstances, it would secure everyday items—maps, tissues, perhaps a flashlight for emergencies. In this scene, the Doctor forces it open during the frantic moments after the ambush, fingers prying at the dampened metal to reveal a framed print of an Amelia Ducat fritillaria tucked inside, its glass front reflecting the dim quarry light.
