    This is such a funny, sassy little play. We all have a friend that is with someone we just can't understand. Stevie is hilarious trying to come to terms with his best friend Roger's new love interest. And not just because the guy's a lawyer!

    There’s a new spin on “the devil made me do it” and Baker is solely responsible for the connection and laughs. If you ever thought mind-numbing tv commercials and wacky billboards were from the devil, read this. And remember, the devil is a master in disguise. He could be hot. Really, really hot.

    How fabulous was it to hear this read at a recent weekly playwright's session. DON has such a wonderful and honest voice for his characters. Add to the scene a character that is both demon AND lawyer... and this short piece becomes truly priceless.
