That was one of the few moments that actually worked for me: the Master's offer, and the Doctor's silence. That hit home. Then we were back to "they're coming to take me away, ha ha hee hee". I agree, it would have been a much higher-stakes season arc (or at least two-parter).
I liked Chris Addison in the first part, but he was wasted in the second; the menace was gone.
