Steve Caplan, and Allan Richards, two con men, are just out of prison and plotting their next moves when Caplan has a horrifying experience. Pressure in his chest causes him to pass out and two men try to drag him away from his body. He manages to escape, thereby passing his time of death. As Caplan reflects on this, he discovers those two men are actually the demons, Shamaaz and Ashtar, who let their guard down and allowed Caplan to escape. Now they cannot deliver his soul and Satan is not happy. What follows is their attempt to keep Caplan from straying off the beaten path, and away from the straight and narrow. If they don't succeed, they'll be adorning Satan's office permanently - as his new favorite couch. Their attempts are at times funny, and at times scary, but always unexpected. Shamaaz and Ashtar try to be Caplan's puppet masters but he works with a whole different set of strings. Caplan and his partner Richards never act totally as they should and continue to make life worrisome for the frustrated demons.
