Astrid's Kitchen

Astrid’s kitchen is a brief but critical support location, where Victoria fetches warm water at the Doctor’s request. The sink and counters hold everyday domestic gear, creating a stark contrast to the violence unfolding in the living room. The task of fetching water is mundane, yet it underscores the group’s temporary normalcy before the assault. The kitchen’s role is functional—it provides a necessary resource—but its atmosphere is one of fleeting calm, soon shattered by the gunfire next door.
