Moral Dilemmas in Corruption and Choice
Max Devlin You want me to corrupt the souls of little kids? I've never been too fond of kids. I hate kids. Then again, tricking three innocent kids into signing their souls to you is not a nice thing.
Barney Satin Neither is Level 4.
Max Devlin Where do I sign?
Confrontation Between Max and Barney
Barney Satin You got some kind of death wish, Max?
Max Devlin No, but you do! You're lucky you're dead or so help me you will be a dead man!
Barney Satin Watch it. You're getting angry, Max.
Max Devlin You're damn right I'm angry! Don't you ever pull a stunt like that on me again!
Barney Satin I was just trying to get your attention.
Max Devlin Yeah? Well, next time try tapping on the shoulder.
Contractual Pressures and Time Constraints
Barney Satin What about my contracts?
Max Devlin So, this is what that stunt back there was all about?
Barney Satin Yes. My associates on the counsel are getting a little itchy. Why has not one subject signed their souls yet?
Max Devlin I don't care! I got until midnight on May 15. That's our deal. Look, I'm trying to get these people so hooked on me that they'll sign anything, but it takes time. If I go too fast, I'm libel to blow the whole deal!
Barney Satin I like your style, Max. You're a devious fellow.
A Surprise Invitation to the Grammys
Barney Satin Mind if I join you?
Max Devlin What are you doing here?
Barney Satin I've never been to the Grammys.
Max Devlin Be my guest.
Barney Satin Goodie for me and goodie for you too. Congratulations on your engagement. When's the happy day?
Max Devlin This Saturday, sandwiched between the first and second motos and after that, Stella's concert at the music center. I'll get her signature on her contract tonight, then Nerve's at his champion race on Thursday, and finally Toby's after the wedding.
Barney Satin It's gonna be real busy for you these next few days. Your wedding is this Saturday... May 15th. You're cutting it real close, aren't you?
Max Devlin I had no choice in the matter. It was Penny's decision to have the wedding on that day.
Barney Satin Well, at least you will still save yourself.
Max Devlin Yeah.
Barney Satin What's the matter? You don't sound too happy about it.
Max Devlin Nobody said I had to enjoy this.
Barney Satin Beats Level 4.
A Moment of Miscommunication and Apology
Max Devlin Oh my God!
Barney Satin I wish you wouldn't say that.

Barney Satin I know.
A Humorous Take on Heat and Hell
Mr. Billings Hey, Max! My air conditioner is on the fritz and it's hotter than hell up here!
Barney Satin Ha! He doesn't know how hot hell is.
[to Max]
Embracing a New Reality in Darkness
Barney Satin You're one of us now. Inhabitants of hell don't cast reflections.
Handling Responsibilities After Marriage
Max Devlin I have to put up with that kid? I don't think I'll be able to handle him now that I'm married to his mom.
[referring to Toby's sudden hostility]
Barney Satin Yeah? Well, don't worry. I'll put in a call to Agent Hargraves and she will deal with him tonight.
Max Devlin But I got all their signatures on their contracts and I'm free. Am I?
Barney Satin Yes. Technically yes, you are free. But by midnight tonight, Toby and the other two souls will belong to me.
Max Devlin Not until the natural end of their lives. That's what you said when you first instructed me how to carry out this scheme.
Barney Satin Point of fact: I lied. I need them now. They will take your place at midnight as your replacements.
Max Devlin Oh, no! Barney, I never would have agreed to this had I known. Toby's a good kid. If you kill him, you'll kill her! Penny will not have the will to live if Toby dies.
Barney Satin Unfortunately, her soul does not belong to me. Nor it ever will. But then again, you now have your precious life. At least to live out until the natural end of your life before you come back to me... and Hell.
Consequences of Making a Deal
Max Devlin What happens to the kids after I get them to sign?
Barney Satin Nothing. We don't get them until the natural ends of their lives.
