The narrative assertion
"The escalation of the Master's manipulation of Midge and Ace's Cheetah instincts (beat_8d732c60d5919e50) leads directly to the Doctor's intervention to prevent Ace from fully transforming during the motorized joust (beat_c5f00f10afb5da5d). This shows the climax of the physical and psychological conflict."
