Ressad recognized Sooger and approached him, but the masseuse was in disguise as a waiter and trying to remain incognito, as he had been sent by the contessa to kill the arms dealer Jedron Bly. He pretended not to know Ressad, who then left him to speak to the baron and Bly. The baron made introductions between Ressad and Bly, after which the arms dealer asked to be left alone with her as he was attracted to her. When they were alone he tried to put his arm around her waist, but she slipped away from him and avoided it. He then successfully tried again and pulled her close, causing her to stamp down on the insole of his foot. As Bly doubled over in pain, Ressad gracefully glided away from him past other party guests who were gathering round him to check if he was alright.

Sooger later called Bly and pretended to be Ressad's personal assistant, claiming she wanted to meet him away from prying eyes in order to lure Bly into a remote part of the yacht. The ploy worked and the Dor Namethian killed Bly and then pretended to have discovered a fire, causing Ressad and the other guests to evacuate the boat.
