***SPOILERS*** Abrasive radio talk show host Luther Mandrake, Jerry Stiller, known to his radio audience as the Devils Advocate is really ready for action tonight at his 12 Midnight to 4 AM time slot. Almost missing starting his show because he found a dead homeless person on the driver seat in his luxury car parked in his high security luxury apartments parking lot Mandrake was now fit to be tied in his precious privacy being invaded even by a dead man and was more then ready to let his frustration out on his abused audience. Whom Mandrake was really mad at was not the dead man in his car but the police response to his call in getting the stiff out of it. This almost made Mandreke miss starting his show for the first time since it premiered some 13 years ago.
Now with the call coming in hot and heavy Mandrake is at his nasty best making anyone who's willing to call him's life a living hell. Showing no sympathy to any of his callers Mandrake tears into them like the woman who's husband was just laid off from his job or the night watchman who despite being a big fan of his being made to feel like dirt in the menial job he's doing! As if Mandrake talking for four hours a night and abusing those who call him was contributing to society more then he was.
As the show goes on it becomes apparent that something isn't quite right about it and its host Mandrake. It's the callers who are now getting the best of the shows host not the other way around! Mandrake turning out to look like the devil himself starts to pour his heart out in why he's the nasty and unfeeling creep that he is. Also the callers seem to be calling not now in the present but from the past many before Mandrake was even born!
***SPOILERS*** We as well as Mandrake then get the truth to what's really happening on the Devils Advocate Radio Show from the person who's really in control of it with Mandrake being only his faithful and obedient servant: The Devil himself! Yes Luther Mandrake had really made it big on radio but he paid a heavy price for it. Mandrak's wife had ended up in a coma after blotched operation with his teenage son as well as parents who died tragically over the years was the high price he paid for his success. With Mandrake now having outlived his usefulness he was just about to join them: Only in death but not where he was about to go. A place that he earned for himself after years of working for the "Man" who was now sending him there!
P.S As for the dead man in Mandrake's luxury car whom he was so mad about Mandrake would have been a lot less nastier and far more sympathetic towards him if he realized whom that person really was!
