The Trick

He unwittingly has a close encounter with a transvestite, then is caught stealing. Given a choice of jail or serving a term in the Army, he chooses the Army. It’s not long before he is court-martialed and given a dishonorable discharge. He falls into a relationship with a junkie, and overdoses on hard rock cocaine. In an out of body experience, he is standing over his body while doctors work to save him, when he is approached by a man who offers to save him. The man offers him fame and fortune in exchange for his soul. The alternative: face “The Judges” who will punish him harshly for killing himself. Bobbie takes the deal, which is sealed by wearing and emerald ring. This ring now controls his destiny. It’s not until his life is again in danger that he discovers that he has been tricked. Now he must find a way to go back and undo the deal with the demon.
