How these two moments in the story relate

The narrative assertion
"The Master's initial psychological torment of Adric in Episode 2 escalates into supernatural control via psychic grip and spectral manipulation in Episode 3. This tracks the Master's trajectory from psychological manipulator to godlike tyrant."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The Master's cruelty towards Adric (psychological torment in Episode 2) evolves into a deeper, more insidious form of control in Episode 3, where Adric is 'trussed in the Master’s psychic grip' and used as a spectral weapon. This aligns with the lens focus on the Master's 'tyrant obsessed with domination.'
