Highway to Heaven

Mark trades his soul to save a girl's life, unaware that his bargain gives the Devil access to an angel's spirit. By making this pact, he inadvertently enables the Devil to claim the celestial being, putting both his own soul and the angel at risk.

"The Devil and Jonathan Smith" is a programme presented as a single episode. It falls squarely within the episode genre, offering a self‑contained story that can be watched in one sitting. The title hints at a confrontation between a mortal and a supernatural figure, setting the stage for a compact narrative. The central thread follows a man called Mark, who strikes a bargain to hand over his soul in exchange for rescuing a young girl’s life. In making this pact, Mark believes he is securing a noble outcome, yet he inadvertently creates an opening for the Devil to claim something far more precious: the spirit of an angel. The exchange thus pivots from a simple rescue to a far‑reaching supernatural transaction. The unintended consequence of Mark’s deal is that the Devil, rather than merely gaining Mark’s soul, succeeds in obtaining an angelic essence. This twist underscores the peril of bargaining with dark forces, as the price paid extends beyond the immediate sacrifice. By the episode’s conclusion, the audience is left with the stark realisation that a seemingly altruistic act can unleash a far more dangerous and otherworldly outcome.
