The SSC people dropped Cristina and her entourage off at DC and Los Angeles, sending them out in scouts from the Aurora. From the scout that carried her, Cristina emerged, wearing a pink jeweled-belt long dress, and she looked up at the sky. No roof over her head.

She then did a press conference about her visit and what she learned and what deals she made.

One of the reporters asked her about whether she was afraid that her hosts would strike back at her for asking tough questions. She said that it was a risk that she was willing to take, and she got her entourage to handwrite a lot of notes. "Fortunately, they were good sports about my criticisms of them."

The Aurora then landed in Andrews Air Force Base, and SSC people unloaded a lot of supplies from their ship, and several politicians went to that base to pick up the gifts from them, including some members of the "Gang of Forty" and some Ethics Committee members.

Senator Mitchell Ferguson and Representative Bud Hawkins did not show up, instead holding a press conference denouncing all the "quislings" in Congress, like all those Congressmembers who were "eager" to take "bribes" from the "mall rats".

But many Congresspeople appreciated her and what she did, including some Ethics Committee members. Nevertheless, Congresspeople grilled her on her trip, and she showed off what she did on that trip, including making deals for SSC assistance and confronting SSC people about what they did earlier. Even Ethics Committee members did so.
