The physical interface embedded in the Master's corrupted TARDIS that projects distorted holographic communication despite temporal instability.
5 appearances
Purpose
Interdimensional communication device used to maintain visual and audio contact between the Doctor and the Master during periods of temporal stalemate.
Significance
This scanner link becomes the focal point of the Doctor and Master's final confrontation, where visual contact through a time-locked interface tests both Time Lords' convictions. The device's instability mirrors the ethical dilemma of their battle—its distortions force the Doctor to witness the Master's desperation directly, while the Master himself struggles to control the temporal feedback that revokes his own autonomy.
