Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Trenchard's death in 'The Sea Devils' (Episode 12) is a direct result of the Master's manipulation, while Hyde's rapid aging in 'The Time Monster' (Episode 22) is another form of the Master's victimization. Both events underscore the Master's role as a perpetrator of suffering, creating a thematic throughline of his villainy.
