Synopsis for "The Judas Goatee"[]
The Doctor discovers evidence that the Master had at some point set himself up as the messiah of a group of bearded Sontarans in order to cause a civil war. This means that he, the Doctor, can use a Sontaran suicide bomber — the Sontarans' attempt to end the apostasy once and for all — to temporarily disable his pursuer, the Then and the Now. He then goes to free River Song from the Stormcage containment facility so she can help him prove that he is innocent of the particular war crime of which he is accused by the Then and the Now's employers. Meanwhile, Abslom Daak performs a surreptitious act of spontaneous niceness by rescuing the last Rassilonian timeflies in existence, and is very embarrassed when Alice spots him doing it.
