The Devil (played to much fan acclaim by John Glover) makes a deal with Stone: Stone will be returned to Earth to track down these 113 escapees, and if he can return all 113 to Hell (before one of them gets him) he will earn a second chance at life on Earth, and therefore, Heaven.
Stone wears the name and pictograms of these souls as tattoos over his body; as each soul is sent back, his or her corresponding tattoo disappears.
Stone wears the clothing he was killed in, and carries his service issue pistol-which he has no need to load or reload- and his detective's gold shield (in one episode he jokes; "Badge number 666"), neither of which sustain any damage including police bullets.
