Basketball Coach talks to the injured player, who is on the sidelines as the Rebels pull ahead of the Miners. There is a timeout and Sportscaster walks over to Raymond and asks him why he thinks the Rebels are suddenly doing well that season. Basketball Coach gives his team some pointers and the players go back onto the court. Sportscaster keeps on asking Raymond where he is getting his money from and he finally tells him god. The injured player goes back into the game and as he is about to make the game winning dunk, the hoop flashes with electricity and explodes and the injured player misses the shot and Atlanta wins the game. While Raymond and Barbara are in bed, Raymond brings up the topic of them getting married, but she says she can't marry anyone. She tells him there is something wrong inside of her and she thinks there is something wrong with Katy Collins.

Businessman tells Raymond that he will have a marvelous team and Businessman 3 asks Raymond if he is pleased with what he has. Dr. Walker tells Raymond that they are in great danger from Barbara and Businessman 2 tells Raymond that Barbara isn't on their side. Dr. Walker says Barbara is able to give birth to beings of great power and carries the ability to pass on the genes of Sateen. Dr. Walker then orders Raymond to impregnate Barbara.

Dr. Walker operates on Barbara, but she is permanently disabled from the waist down. Barbara is brought home by Raymond and Barbara tells Katy that she and Raymond are going to be more like a family. Jerzy Colsowicz arrives at Barbara's house and tells Raymond he is Katy's babysitter. Raymond and Barbara go out on their date and he tells her she will have a special surprise that night. During dinner, Raymond tells the other dinner guests that he and Barbara are going to get married, which surprises Barbara. Barbara gets upset with Raymond for not asking her if she even wants to get married. Raymond has another meeting with Dr. Walker, who sends Thomas away, and the Businessmen and Dr. Walker tell Raymond, that he has failed and they will take care of getting Barbara pregnant. After she gets an abortion, Barbara is attacked at her home by Katy who starts to strangle her. Katy drags Barbara up the stairs and then kicks her back down as Raymond watches. Raymond puts a wire around Barbara's neck, and Katy makes Barbara's electric stair chair go down, strangling Barbara. Smoke appears in the sky and then turns into a flock of doves.
