However, this seemingly impossible task becomes easier after an epic spirit battle between them. The possibility of Carter's spirit being stuck in his father's body wasn't exactly part of the plan to make his father ultimately pay for any part he played in the conspiracy and perhaps even in Carter's own murder.
