Dalek Detention Cell Alarm
Auditory warning device integrated into the detention cell door mechanism activates with a distinct sound when Ian jams the door using a piece of the spy camera casing, preventing proper closure. The blaring alert immediately notifies Dalek 1 of the prisoners' tampering, drawing it toward the cell amid Susan's listening, Barbara's mud-smeared eyepiece distraction, and the Doctor's coordinated ambush. Its sharp tone pierces the tension, forcing the group to accelerate their disabling of the guard.
