Secret Room Contingency Message
The Doctor directs Sean and Jacko to leave this message in the secret room should they fail to locate the fish people during their rebellion mission. In the hidden chamber, Polly, Ben, Jamie, and Sean listen as the instruction sets up a fallback amid plans to starve Zaroff and kidnap him. The note promises to bridge their isolation, scribbled hastily if needed to relay progress or summon aid.
