Jago's Pocket Watch

A brass pocket watch with a fractured crystal and tarnished fob chain that Jago fidgets with during moments of stress. The watch remains half-drawn from his waistcoat pocket throughout the confrontation, its metallic chime audible when he taps it impatiently against his thigh. The Doctor seizes it not as an object of timekeeping but as a physical conduit for hypnotic induction, pressing the watch face against Jago's forehead during the compulsion sequence.

Before: Tarnished timepiece in Jago’s waistcoat pocket.
After: Seized by the Doctor and pressed against Jago’s forehead during the compulsion sequence, afterwards returned to Jago in a daze.
