The Doctor gets Mikey to recount the story how it all started, prompting a flashback. After getting off the bus, the four teenagers — [[Colin (And You Will Obey Me)|Colin]], [[Helen (And You Will Obey Me)|Helen]], and [[Janine (And You Will Obey Me)|Janine]] and [[Michael Masterson|Mikey]] themselves — bicker about whether Mikey knows the way back as he claimed. Before things can get too far, however, they see [[Goth's TARDIS|the Master's TARDIS]] plummeting to the ground, causing tremors as though a bomb just dropped. | The Doctor gets Mikey to recount the story how it all started, prompting a flashback.

Making their way to the flaming barn into which the timeship crashed, they hesitate with coming closer until the Master emerges from the "capsule", asking for help. He grouches and complains as they help him up, however, and threatens them with a [[staser gun]] when they try to call for medical assistance. After they recant, he tells them that his facial disfiguration is nothing new, and that what ails him as the result of his crash is trauma to his genetic structure.

Not realising when and where he is, he asks for directions to a genetic therapy clinic; when Janine tries to have a joke at his expense, he drops any pretence of affability and demonstrates his hypnotic control over her, spooking the others into obedience. He then reads Mike's mind to see his greatest desire (that his wounded brother be healed) and promises it to him in exchange for total submission to his will. He soon repeats the same offer to the other three. | ||
Mikey and Janine go on to chronicle how the Master transferred parts of his essence and thus hypnotic powers to them, so that they could "steal" various electronic components on his behalf by simply walking into shops and demanding to be given them. The Doctor notes that it only makes sense that he would have "infected" those close to him with parts of his being, if his "[[biodata|genetic structure]]" had been damaged. | Mikey and Janine go on to chronicle how the Master transferred parts of his essence and thus hypnotic powers to them, so that they could "steal" various electronic components on his behalf by simply walking into shops and demanding to be given them.
