Absolute evil exists and one can encounter it anytime and anyplace, even on your way to Florida to have a holiday with the whole family. You can try to appeal to the remains of good in it, flatter it, try to deceive it (clumsily), talk about God with it, beg it but everything is in vain. The evil will be polite, it will confide in you and will tell you the story of his life. But eventually, the trigger will be inevitably pressed.
It is a heart-wrenching story, a roller-coaster with brilliantly-develped characters.

“Lady,� The Misfit said, looking beyond her far into the woods, “there never was a body that give the undertaker a tip.�
