With her last breath, she warns him about the robot bus controller. The Doctor is immediately attacked by it, but manages to resist and defeat it. He then resumes his travel towards the Circus, accompanied by a fan of the Circus, who came here to join in the talent contest. They see some [[kite]]s in the sky, and the Doctor recognises them as the instruments which were used to check and/or kill the refugees [[The Greatest Show in the Galaxy (TV story)|when he came to the Circus]]. He tries to warn his companion, but she goes on to greet them and is killed in return. | ||
The Doctor reaches the Circus, and is immediately snatched away by the Master on a psychic plane. The Master, who is wearing a pendant with an eye on his neck, gloats about his success into harnessing and exploiting the psychic energy generated by the artists of the Circus, and using it to feed both himself and the Gods of Ragnarok. The Doctor's reply to his boast is to start juggling again, and in doing so, he throws a ball in the air - and it does not come down. The Doctor then proves the Master is not really in control of the plane: not only the Gods are the real masters here, but the people in the Circus are able to control their own energy and can take it away. | The Doctor reaches the Circus, and is immediately snatched away by the Master on a psychic plane.
