Dying Comm Unit

The Doctor slams the failing unit against his palm, its worn casing groaning under repeated impact. The screen bleeds static where Lane's fragmented replies struggle through the interference, the voice amplifier coughing out syllables before dying into silence. Its low hum has become a dying breath, mirroring the control room's crumbling cohesion as the Master's trap tightens around the Doctor's hand. The unit's once-functional circuits now strain under the weight of unseen sabotage.
