"I made my choice, for better or
for worse. Isn't that right Harry?"
Lucy came from a good
family and went to Roedean an all girl’s school. She fell for Harold Saxon after he was kind
to her father, but she's not the brightest card in the pack and it could be one
of the reasons that the Master was able to manipulate her. A stronger will might have been harder to
break in the time it took for the Master to set the traps for the Doctor and
prepare for the world for his new Time Lord Empire on Earth with the Toclafane.
Vivian Rook threatened
to expose her husband Saxon as a fraud.
Although Lucy herself seemed to know to some extent, that the name Saxon
was a cover, it would mean that she would lose the rich lifestyle she was
accustomed to.
But judging by the
levels of bruises on her in the final episode ‘Last of the Time Lords’, it did
appear that the Master treated her badly.
When Lucy shot and
killed Saxon on the deck of the Valiant, it’s unclear whether she was still
under some form of hypnotic state or in a form of shock at the way she had been
treated, and it was her desperate struggle at breaking those bonds.
In a later season
involving Donna, Lucy Saxon is in prison, but seems much stronger than her
previous self. She is aware that some of
the prison staff are looking to resurrect the Master after his ring is
collected from the funeral pyre, which hadn’t been in as remote a place as we
were led to believe.
Similar in ways used to
restore Voldemort to a corporeal figure, the Master is returned to life through
means of the ring and his last physical connection, Lucy Saxon and the
sacrifice of his mortal followers. A
huge explosion during his regeneration however rips through the stone building
destroying it fully killing everyone but the Master!
