Object
Sickbay Entry Door
A flush, human‑scale bulkhead door leading into the Enterprise sickbay: matte composite leaf, narrow seam, muted hydraulic hiss and a recessed call strip beside the frame. Light scuffs mark its lower edge from routine traffic. Medical staff pause at its lip; the door frames entrances and exits, and characters use its swing to admit patients or to sever contact as Worf turns away and leaves through it.

Purpose
To control physical access to the sickbay treatment area—admitting or isolating patients, regulating foot traffic, and providing a sealed threshold for medical privacy and operational control.
Significance
The door functions as a decisive threshold: Worf's exit through the aperture converts a procedural medical moment into an irrevocable moral action. Its closing literalizes separation—cutting off rescue, sealing Patahk's fate, and transforming private refusal into a catalyst for wider political consequences.
