Doctor's Medication Aerosol Cans

Two small metal cans with nozzle attachments, clutched by the Doctor during the airlock crisis. These aerosol containers hold pressurized medical compounds—antibiotics or pain inhibitors—applied directly to Idas's bleeding wound. Their small size makes them nearly lost in the Doctor's hands as he works with practiced urgency, dimpled metal reflecting the failing airlock lights while thick fumigation gas swirls beyond the transparent door.
