I see what you're saying... But I don't think so - It seemed pretty clear to me that what the Master did was position Lucy to kill him if the going got rough, then he fed himself into the ring, and then Lucy had orders to go get him. We'll see - I suspect they won't go anywhere with it for quite a while and who knows if the actress will be available?

BTW: Here is the scan I was talking about: http://cane-tie.livejournal.com/21199.html
