As the Doctor's trial for interfering in galactic affairs nears its conclusion, the Master appears in the courtroom.

With the trial in disarray and the Master in his own bid for power, the Doctor flees into the Matrix to confront the prosecutor, into a nightmarish world of torture and punishment. Trapped within, he will have to fight for his life against the ultimate foe...
