Holliday’s forced departure fractures the alliance

The hay in the livery stable crunches underfoot as the group gathers, its dry golden strands creating a sensory backdrop to the tension-filled moment. The Doctor drops the wanted poster into the hay as they depart, the poster’s presence among the hay symbolizing the moral and physical detritus left behind in Tombstone. The hay also serves as a neutral witness to the group’s fractured alliance and their hasty escape.

Before: Scattered across the floor of the livery stable, undisturbed until the Doctor drops the poster.
