-<!-- (First watched 2024-10-08, -09, ) I don't quite understand the machine in use in the prison. So it removes bad impulses from prisoners... but what's it storing? If it was just electrical imbalances or whatever there'd be nothing to store, but they talk about the device being 65% full. So is it supposed to be physically removing some sort of ''evil'' substance? That they have no better way of disposing of than just leaving it in the machine indefinitely? That's how you create deadly Doctor Who villains, dude. I also don't understand how it is using mental control to convince people to die, but they actually end up with water in the lungs and whatnot. That's going beyond the mental, unless their brain convinced the rest of their body to secrete liquid to the lungs?

+Next episode, aaaand the Master's back. And so are his masks that look perfect until they look awful when he removes them.
+Jo gets caught in a hostage situation... then ends it by stealing a gun and shooting it. She's crazier than I realized! Even crazier is a half hour episode that manages to have the same prison overtaken by prisoners twice in one episode, but I guess with the Master's help anything is possible.
+I don't quite understand how the Master is involved in all this. Just, logistically. He's "Dr. Keller" who provided the machine that removes the negative impulses from prisoners, sure. But for him to take on this persona, make the device, get it accepted by enough people to actually start putting into practice... wouldn't that mean he's been at this for a very long time? Certainly he'd have had to start it before the events of the previous episode, even though in the previous episode he wouldn't have known he was going to NEED another plan. Maybe he's just the kind of guy who plans for failure and has 10 evil schemes cooking simultaneously just in case?
