Nyssa and Adric clash over the Doctor’s absence

The miller's house serves as the distant crisis point where Tegan remains trapped under threat from the android, its modest and vulnerable setting heightening the stakes of Adric's demand for immediate rescue and Nyssa's insistence on caution.

Atmosphere

Strained with impending danger and unresolved peril, the house embodies vulnerability and the cost of hesitation as a potential crime scene or battleground in waiting.

Functional Role
