She did a lot of runs around the base either repairing something or giving someone something. Soon she came to her final assignment. While trying to deliever to Toby some paperwork, she found he was missing. Then she heard the airlock open and close. While investigating she discovered the possessed Toby standing on the surface. He tried tempting her to join him. She raised her hand towards him but after moments refused his offer. He eventually murdered her by sealing off the doors, preventing Scooti from escaping. Then he caused a hull breach, sending the young Scooti to her death, in the vacuum of space, kicking and screaming.
Biography
Scooti was in the control room when the Doctor and Rose first arrived and announced the incoming earthquake.. She was checking the main console in the room to prep everything for the earthquake when the Doctor and Rose came in with the security team. She was dumbfounded just like the rest of the crew. She even said "People, look at that, real people" in an excited voice. While Danny walked up to the Doctor and Rose she sat down at her station. During the first part of the quake she was calmly leaning back in her chair and moved very little. Then during the second quake she was shook violently with her hair flying all over her face and her consol sparking behind her. She then turned around to check up on her station. Scooti was asked by Zach if she was ok to which she responded "No damage". Then she walked back up to the main console. She went over and stood by Ida Scott. When Rose asked if there was a hurricane out there, Scooti responded that you need an atmosphere for a hurricane and that it's complete vacuum out there. She looked at Ida when Rose asked what's shaking the roof with a confused look on her face. Then Ida began introducing everyone in the room to the duo. She was introduced last with Ida putting her hands on Scooti's shoulders. As Ida put her hands on her shoulders Scooti smiled very warmly and kindly. Then Ida opened the overhead shutters to observe the black hole.
Later she was at the meeting to inform the Doctor and Rose about Krop Tor. Scooti sat with Danny Bartock after walking around abit. When Zach came to explaining about the funnel and Danny explaned that if the funnel closed they'd all be trapped, she joked that they have fun speculating about that. Then he hit her lightly with the scroll saying "Yeah, that's the word....fun". She turns around and gives him a rather dirty look. Later Rose asked what the Ood where and laughed at her play on the Ood's name. When Rose expressed her disagreement with the Ood being slaves Scooti rolled her eyes, but not unkindly. She jokingly mocked her by calling her a member of the Friends of the Ood.
Then it turned to the nightshift. Scooti left the base via airlock decked in a spacesuit while being watched by Jefferson. She had a wrench in her hand and walked over to what looked like a radar. She began tightening something on the radar. After she was finished she instantly got a grin on her face. She radioed in that she was all finished and was coming back inside. Then she turned around and started to walk back inside.
During dinner she was up in line getting food when Rose walked up. Scooti said she could eat whatever she wanted but advised against the green or the blue.
She was later present at the eating up of the Scarlet system. She had watched the lights flickerand when Ida called Zach about it she told him it was just the Scarlet system being eaten up. She watched in awe at the system being eaten up. Afterwards she was ordered by Ida to check the airlocks.
Scooti later hopped into Toby Zed's room with a blue file in her hands. She said that she was coming to give him his expenditure. Scooti looked around in his room, but soon learned he was not there. She went over and stood by the desk her face being shown by the light. Scooti put the file on
his desk. Then suddenly the computer announced the opening of door 41. Scooti's head rose and she looked forward. Scooti stayed still, unsure what she just heard. She then turned around to look in the direction of the announcement with a curious look on her young face. While she was doing this, she heard the computer say "Close Door 41." Then looked back in the direction of the desk perturbed. Then Scooti uttered, "41..", to her self. After that she realized what had happened and turned around knowing that something was wrong. She ran out of the room at top speed.
Soon after, Scooti came rushing through door 40 and it closed on it's own as she went over to Door 41. Scooti went over to a panel by door 41 and activated the computer. She quickly asked the computer if it opened and closed door 41. To which it confirmed her worries. Scooti then said "But... that's the airlock. Why would you open the airlock? It's the night shift, we're not allowed outside. Has someone gone out?" The computer confirmed this. Then Scooti asked who it was. And the computer said "Cannot confirm." Scooti quickly said "Hold on I know. Tell me who's spacesuit has been logged out." The computer calmly said "No spacesuit has been logged out" Scooti said "You aren't making any sense, you can't go outside without..." An irritated Scooti backed up, now fed up with the computer. Scooti then activated her radio watch. She attempted to report that the door was malfunctuning. However her radio crackled up and died. Scooti now very confused and getting angry reactivated the computer. She asked what was wrong with the radio, to which the computer calmly told her nothing was wrong with it. Scooti, now completely irritated, yelled at the door to tell her who went out. However, it responded with "He is Awake". This freaked the young Scooti out. She then asked "what". Then it repeated itself. Then Scooti, now very disturbed, asked what that meant. And it said "He bathes in the black sun".
Creeped out she pushed away from the door. Scooti stared at it unbelievingly for a moment. Down the hall near Door 42 a shutter opened to the outside. An extremely curious Scooti walked over to it. By the time she got fully there the shutter was almost open revealing the surface. Scooti discovered a possessed Toby without a spacesuit standing unharmed on the exposed surface of Krop Tor. Scooti's eyes widened in shock at this sight. Then he turned around and smiled evilly at her as soon as he saw Scooti. Scooti then said his name. She muttered in shock that there wasn't
any air and was confused as to how he was surviving out there. Toby, still grinning, nodded and began motioning for her with a finger to come forward, probably in an attempt to convert her. Scooti raised her hand at that motion and extended it towards Toby as if hypnotised. Her eyes began to soften as if being conforted. Also her young eyes began to have a longing look in them. Soon, her eyes began to get wet as if about to cry. The young woman was on the verge of tears by this point. This continued for a few moments and her hand got continually closer to the glass and Toby continued motioning for her to come. However, she finally managed to break his control over her body. Her eyes gazed on her arm after being freed. She slammed it down at her side. Scooti then yelled at him to stop though the glass with a pleading look on her face and her eyes still wet with a few tears on her face. She was also almost shivering from what happened. After hearing Scooti yell at him to stop, his smile disappeared. He had grown angry with her because she refused him. Scooti was now terrified of Toby, after what he managed to do to her. His former grin was replaced with a vicious glare. Toby decided it was time to murder the young woman. Toby then clenched his fist. Sounds like glass breaking began to fill the air and a cloud formed on the window. Scooti, with her eyes still wet and still terrified from what Toby had been doing to her, frantictally looked at the window, trying to find the source. Soon a fissures and cracks appeared on the window. Scooti gasped in fear, now realizing Toby's intent to kill her by sucking her into space. The frightened Scooti sprinted for the door as fast as she could.
Unfortunately for Scooti, Toby, using his powers given by the Beast, had psionically locked the doors. Thereby, trapping the young woman in the soon to decompress airlock section. Scooti at first tried to open it frantically telling it to open. But the door refused her attempts to open it. The second time, she began to get very fearful as heard in her voice. However it still wouldn't refused her passage. Scooti began screaming at the top of her lungs and tugging frantically at the door to open it. However the door ignored her pleas. Toby just continued to break the viewport outside. Scooti now was certain Toby would kill her and this scared her even more. However, the door still wouldn't respond to her and refused to obey her command to open. All the while the window continued to crack more and more. Soon, a huge dent had appeared on the window and most of the window was now covered in cracks. This was signalling her closely approaching death. This only scared her more and more. Soon the very young Scooti lost all of her normal calm and composure. Her youthful face became twisted with fear. Scooti's eyes got all wet again, but this time in fear. She began looking as if about to just simply break down crying because of her fate and beg for her life. However, Scooti tried to be defiant, and kept screaming and tugging at the door. All in a vain attempt to open the door standing in her way to her freedom from death. Scooti wanted to live, however, his was not to be. Scooti was still screaming "Open Door 40" Scooti then said "Open Door...", but Toby cut off the young Scooti by quickly uncoiling all of his fingers. Then the glass completely exploded into shards under the pressure and was pulled outward and a large hole replaced it. The airlock section was now open to the deadly vacuum of space. Scooti's needed air was rushing out the window tvery quickly and it hissed as it flew out. Her death was now certain. The rushing air ripped Scooti's skinny fingers away from the door handle. The young woman was pulled backwards from the door. The rushing air was simply too strong for the young woman. The desperate Scooti tried reaching out to grasp the handle once again in a vain attempt to survive. However she was pulled too far away and couldn't reach it. The completely terrified Scooti now began screaming wildly with her last breaths, not wanting to die, especially not alone. Scooti was pulled down the hall with her legs towards the window. Then the young woman was sent kicking, screaming, and probably crying towards the breach. The young trainee maintenance officer was then sucked out into the dark vaccuum of space to the possessed Toby screaming all the way to her death. Eventually she suffocated to death probably screaming with her last breaths.
After the hull breach had been contained the Jefferson tried to contact her. However he ended up not getting an answer. Zach said that her biochip stated she was in Habitation 3. However the crew didn't find her there and began calling other habitations. However, the Doctor soon found her. Her pale corpse was outside the base near the domed viewport just floating there. Jefferson called and reported "Officer Scootori Manista, deceased 43K 2.1" Zach silently mourned her death. Ida then walked over to the swich and said how she was only 20 years old. As the shutters closed Scooti's body turned and began it's trip to the black hole. Shortly after this, the drilling that she and the rest of the crew had been waiting for just stopped. Showing that she had died just when the mission was about to end. (DW: The Impossible Planet)
Personality
Scooti appeared to be a relatively nice person and was willing to do many task and highly energetic. However she appeared to get angry quickly as she was pretty mad at the computer for not getting a straight answer. Also she appeared to be scared easily judging by her reaction to the computer's response "He is awake" and when Toby began ripping apart the window she lost composure quickly. Also, she seemed to be logical minded and quickly dismissed Rose's comment about it sounding like a hurricane outside. Though completely frightened in her final moments, Scooti was obviously very brave considering she was on that deadly planet.
Appearance
Scooti was a relatively tall woman. She had long, curly, golden colored hair. She wore a black sleeveless shirt, and black jeans. She also wore a necklace that was a string around ring. She was also a very young and youthful looking woman with dark eyes and normally had a smile on her face
