[[Joe Barker]] stumbles down the street, drunk and depressed, frustrated with how his music had been ignored this past night in the club, how his last record had been a flop. A truck rushes in front of him as he's yanked back, but the trumpet in his hand ends up mangled. Standing over him is a [[Mephistopheles (Body and Soul)|man]] in a green [[zoot suit]], [[pork-pie hat]] and a skull mask who introduces himself as [[Godparent (rank)|Godparent]] Mephistopheles. Mephistopheles says that Joe should have died here tonight, but he's being offered a second chance, a gift from the [[loa]], a chance to replace that timeline with a new trumpet that he offers to him. | [[Joe Barker]] stumbles down the street, drunk and depressed, frustrated with how his music had been ignored this past night in the club, how his last record had been a flop.
