* NeverSpeakIllOfTheDead: The Doctor chides Liv for speaking ill of the Master, one of the most psychotically insane people he's ever met, who once blew up a good chunk of the universe ''by mistake''.
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: As the Ravenous consume him, instead of pleading with The Doctor to save him, The Master commands him to save himself and avenge The Master's death. It's a nice nod to their long ago friendship that he can put aside all the centuries of hatred and fighting when he knows he can't survive and make sure The Doctor carries on instead.
* TheOnlyOneAllowedToDefeatYou: Invoked when the Master tells the Doctor to leave as the Ravenous consume him, the Master proclaiming that if he can't be the one to kill the Doctor he won't let these things do it instead.

!!Tropes:
* TheBadGuyWins: The Eleven manages to sic the Ravenous on the Master and get away with it.
* CallBack: Hearing a vortex manipulator going off, Helen assumes it's River popping in for a visit. The following audio story shows it is definitely ''not'' River.
* EvilCannotComprehendGood: The Burned Master doesn't get that the Doctor might actually be trying to pull a heroic sacrifice to save him.
* HoistByTheirOwnPetard: The Burned Master's various attempts at keeping himself alive mean he's a walking smorgasbord for hungry, hungry Ravenous.
* HorribleJudgeOfCharacter: The Doctor assumes the Eleven is genuine when he wants to reform, as does Helen. Liv is the only one who suspects a rat.
* KilledOffForReal: After many, many, many, '''''many''''' near-misses, the Burned Master dies for reals when the Ravenous eat him. Well, sort of...
* {{Macguffin}}: The Master is combing Parrak for the Tomb of Artron, which he believes will allow him to gain a new lease of life.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: The Eight says this when the Eleven escapes.
* NeverSpeakIllOfTheDead: The Doctor chides Liv for speaking ill of the Master, one of the most psychotically insane people he's ever met, who once blew up a good chunk of the universe ''by mistake''.
* YourDaysAreNumbered: At the beginning of the story, the Master is actually facing the genuine end of his life, as his body begins to wear completely thin. He even notes that the constant pain he's felt is beginning to die down... because the parts that feel pain are shutting down bit by bit.
* YourPrincessIsInAnotherCastle: Villainous version. The Eleven reveals the brain-scan of Artron isn't in his tomb. It's all just a trap so the Ravenous can dine on the Master.
