Tom and his wife have a volatile relationship. When he gets home after meeting Old Scratch, he really doesn't want to tell her about their meeting. Unfortunately, instead of listening to his inner voice, he tells her anyway...... she, of course, wants Tom to take the deal. When Tom declines (just to kake her mad), she runs out to make a deal of her own. When Old Scratch gets rid of Tom's wife for him..... he isn't the least bit sorry.
