Synopsis for "Ghosts In The Machine - Part 5: Electrogeddon"

Praxis and Quarral shoot at the crazed Richard Redditch, but the man's energy leaves the dying body, going into the electrical system through the computer and travels across the electric network until it reaches the computer of Mr. Rand; the man in charge of a defense program which could start World War III if unleashed.

Quarral and Praxis deduce that Redditch was their serial killer and they close the investigation. Corrigan does the same and tells his crew members to inform Redditch's widow about the situation. However, Spectre knows that Redditch's evil "essence" is still out there, which is why he gets ready to face the unknown enemy.

Spectre inquires the nature of armageddon to Madame Xanadu, as he fears the end of days is coming. Knowing there's a chance life will cease to exist, Spectre tells Xanadu he'd like to experience her touch in the same way as she would experience it. Like this, Spectre transforms into Corrigan and embraces Xanadu in a soft kiss until he transforms back to Spectre and vanishes.

Meanwhile, Redditch uses his new body to make sure the defense program is not stopped and after creating a world within the electrical system using the souls of his victims, he starts the defense program, hoping to exterminate enough lives to increase the ranks of his electrical army. All this, while Spectre reaches Redditch's electric world and struggles against his minions to stop the destruction of mankind.
