In the midst of his preparations for the battle, the Master explains that he was once a "rich-blooded second-generation," but after his family's death, he became "an ordinary person" .

The Master asks if he has taken over the body of Lilly again, and he wonders if it is possible for him to revive the wedding ring he threw away.
