Scarlioni Laboratory Workbench

A heavy steel workbench dominates the subterranean laboratory, its surface scarred by burns and etched with the residue of Scarlioni's experimental work. Wires and components from the triode array snake across it, tangled amid scattered tools—pliers, soldering irons, and half-dismantled devices. The bench's cold metal glints under the harsh laboratory lighting, reflecting the amber glow of Scarlioni's Chambertin bottle placed deliberately near Kerensky's elbow. Its massive bulk anchors the room, anchoring both the Count's ambition and the tension of his psychological games.

S17E5 · City of Death Part 1

Count and Kerensky argue over timing

The laboratory pedestal serves as the focal point for their confrontation, its precision-etched surface illuminated by eerie blue glow from beneath, displaying scattered tools and half-assembled circuits. Scarlioni rests a proprietary hand upon it aggressively while Kerensky leans over to gesture at readings on its integrated console, using it as both stage and status symbol for their conflicting visions.

Before: Clean and organized work platform with exposed glowing conduits beneath, housing fractured components and experimental schematics secured for delicate procedures

After: Slightly disturbed by Scarlioni’s aggressive presence and Kerensky’s frustrated gesturing, tools and circuits shifted but still secured, maintaining its role as experimental focal point

Scarlioni tightens his grip on Kerensky

The heavy steel workbench anchors the laboratory’s industrial heart, serving as the stage for Scarlioni to display his power. Blueprints and the Mona Lisa rest upon its scarred surface, grounding the confrontation in the tangible machinery of temporal theft.

Before: Littered with oscilloscopes, holographic projectors, and volatile temporal devices amid repaired burns and wire snarls.

After: Deposited with the blueprint and the Mona Lisa force field, further scarred by the weight of Scarlioni’s demands and Kerensky’s trembling hands.

S17E7 · City of Death Part 3

Scarlioni reveals the Mona Lisa heist

The laboratory workbench serves as the operational stage for Scarlioni’s psychological gambit and Kerensky’s moral surrender. Papers detailing the reversed temporal machine design lie strewn across its scarred surface, while the brown cloth parcel containing the painting is dumped onto it. The workbench’s intimidating presence underscores Scarlioni’s dominance.

Before: Clean and organized with oscilloscopes and projectors, bearing the revamped machine blueprint amid tools

After: Scarred and chaotic, now bearing the dumped brown cloth parcel and serving as the display platform for the stolen Mona Lisa
