A group of 4 poker friends are playing cards with who they think is a stand-in. It turns out player number 5 is the devil and he has come to take one of them with him. In the end, our group of clever seniors beat the devil in a game of lowball (the lower numbers win).
I really enjoyed this episode, good acting by all the guys. One of the players is Jerry Seinfeld's father on the TV show. Morgan Freeman is also a nice surprise in this episode, maybe he was not that famous back then.
An excellent episode, it is just a little different for the TZ.moreless
AIRED:
A last-minute replacement player at a Friday night poker game elicits suspicions from the others as a result of his uncanny ability to draw the same cards with each hand dealt.

Tony: What's the Devil doin' here in North Jersey?
Jake: What are you talkin' about, Tony? I think he lives here! -
Nick: Uh, Pete, do you have any water?
Peter: Yeah, in the kitchen. Keep it in the faucet. Saves on space, you know? -
(Opening Narration)
Narrator: Just a friendly game of cards. It doesn't take much to buy in to this game, but buying out, may be something else entirely. You see, there's a wild card on the table in a deck that's been reshuffled and cut in the Twilight Zone. -
(Closing Narration)
Narrator: There's an old saying, oft told but seldom heeded: "Never deal with the Devil". But, if by chance you must, it's good to know he can be a good sport. Just a friendly game of cards among a friendly group of guys who've just come back from the Twilight Zone.
