The narrative assertion
"Grendel's offer to the Doctor of the throne of Tara in exchange for betrayal (beat_dc3ad285ab4b5ea9) directly triggers the Doctor's refusal and subsequent exposure of Grendel's treachery (beat_52650ee981b8b426). This confrontation culminates in Grendel's desperate act of destroying the android King."
