S5E17 · The Enemy of the World Part 1
Astrid reveals Salamander’s threat

Astrid’s living room begins as a tense but relatively safe space, where the Doctor tends to Astrid’s wound amid probing questions. The dim light filtering through the curtains creates an atmosphere of uneasy intimacy, broken only by the occasional clink of medical tools. However, the room’s mood shifts violently as Anton and Curly burst in, guns drawn. The living room becomes a battleground—bullets rip through the air, Rod crumples dead, and the Doctor’s group scrambles for cover. The space, once a sanctuary, is now a trap, its shattered furniture and bloodstains marking the transition from dialogue to chaos.
