The missing brooch “Idän Tähti” still bothers Barbie. At Mrs. Drayton’s evening party, Barbie stages a glowing “spirit” to spook Valerie—who flees outside, sees the “Idän tähden hengetär” and panics. Conscience-stricken, she confesses she stole the brooch intending to “find” it later to deflect suspicion. Forgiven, she returns it. Barbie explains to Skipper that she engineered the ruse: a note to lure Valerie, roller skates and a cassette for sound effects, and a borrowed glow-in-the-dark gown (“Unelmien hehku-puku”) to play the spirit.
