The mission of the Warlock is to assemble the three sections of the Grand Grimoire, a book of the devil that will reveal the true name of god, thus presumably ending all of creation. Arriving in the future, the Warlock is innocently taken in by Kassandra (Singer) and her gay roommate.


While preparing an omelette for the Warlock, the gay roommate suffers the loss of a finger and an eye. Kassandra is inflicted with a curse of rapid aging, and she agrees to join forces with Redferne to hunt down the Warlock before he can complete the book.
