6/10
Pretty Simple Deal with the Devil Plot
9 July 2017
A guy who is an absolute schmuck is hated by his wife, treated disrespectfully at his two bit job, and in general has little to offer the world. So he goes to a place called Future Trade after seeing their ads all over the place. He is suspicious about signing up, but the promise of exchanging places with someone meeting his criteria (money, cars, women) gets him to put it down on the dotted line. And he gets what he wants. The thing is we know it's the Twilight Zone and so he is going to pay dearly for his fun. Every show we've ever seen where a guy signs a contract to have all he wants are going to end in disaster, even death. Not much new territory here.
