Episode 1: Three Irish men who play in pubs and call themselves "The first punk-folk band in Ireland" are sitting having pints, when Frank Murphy reveals that every Friday night for the past three weeks when he is walking home he sees a black goat which talks to him, but he doesn't know what it's saying. So Frank takes Puca and Ciaran to the scene and they too see the goat, which Ciaran kills with an axe, which then conjures The Devil asking "Why did youse kill my goat?" He asks them to play him a song and if he likes it, he will not burn their souls in the ditches of Hell.
