S17E6 · City of Death Part 2

Doctor and Duggan confront lab secrets

Kerensky loads the Time-Slip Chicken’s unremarkable egg into the device’s focal chamber. The experiment’s polarity reversal by the Doctor later forces grotesque skeletal deceleration to separate from flesh before it collapses inert, vividly demonstrating the machine’s volatile temporal mechanics.

Before: Concealed in a cabinet among military-grade sabotage materials

After: Accelerated through unnatural lifespan stages, ending as inert matter again

S17E6 · City of Death Part 2

Romana uncovers hidden chamber behind wall

The Time-Slip Chicken serves as Kerensky’s primary experimental subject, emerging from its egg in a rapid and distorted lifecycle. Its twitching, sickly existence and subsequent grotesque skeletal inversion under polarity reversal exemplify the temporal dangers of the accelerator, drawing Duggan’s impatience and underscoring the Doctor’s warning about flawed science.

Before: Fully formed, actively struggling chicken with exaggerated aging signs due to forced temporal acceleration.

After: Twitching skeletal form reconstituted into a grotesque parody, then collapsed into skeletal remains that reassemble and vanish under polarity reversal.
