S19E2 · Castrovalva Part 2
Doctor finds clarity to lead escape

The Doctor’s emergency notebook, carried in his coat pocket, serves as the vessel for his fleeting but critical instructions. Smudged ink reflects his shaking hands and mounting pressure as he scribbles the manual override steps, its charred corner a reminder of the Master’s trap field.

Before: Stored in the Doctor’s coat pocket with erasures and hasty annotations, a charred corner from prior scorching.
After: Open in the Doctor’s hands, filled with the override schematics as Nyssa reads upside-down while Tegan steadies him.

Before: Held in the Doctor's coat pocket; pages already marked by smoke damage from earlier events
After: Lying open on the corridor floor, pages hastily filled with smudged emergency annotations
