At the beginning of the story the Master assumed form of a snake as his other form had been exterminated by the Daleks. He caused the TARDIS to crash land on Earth.

Later he escaped from the TARDIS and took Bruce the Paramedics body to help him get a new body, later he realised the body wouldn't last long and decided to take the Doctors remaining lives.
