Synopsis:
Deadman, in the body of Raisa Gorbachev, tries to use an alien weapon against a spirit entity who claims to be the devil and is inhabiting the body of Nancy Reagan. Mikhail Gorbachev spoils Deadman's aim, but the spirit flees from Nancy's body anyway. Deadman leaves Raisa's body and takes over Major Kasaba. He then leaves the party.
Once Kasaba is alone, Deadman leaves her body also. However, she is aware that Deadman is present and requests that he communicate with her. Deadman takes over a nearby guard, then explains that the entity from the jar has escaped. That entity now possesses Stan Kriptman and is still claiming to be the devil. Then D.B. Cooper shows up. He exposes the entity as Yakin, a minor demon, not the devil. He explains that he is Yakin's boss.
