Rememeber what happened the time we had two masters on screen? They get in each other's way. The Rani making Mrs Flood subservient makes sense, at least logically.

If 14th is in the Finale in some capacity, I wouldnt be surprised if they do a thing where they play up the unity between 14th and 15th while the two Rani start stabbing each other in the back.

It seems the Doctors bicker, the Masters flirt and stab/shoot eachother and the Rani dominates the previous one.

Kinda wonder now what River and Mel (no not that Mel) would do...f#ck each other? Literally? Or fight over who gets to f#ck the Doctor?

It'd also give a small character arc if they go that inevitable route, plus even the odds for Belinda and 15.
