Buddha, Allah and Elohim are worried: God is going through a major existential crisis and neglects the interreligious croquet game. Instead of promenading leisurely through the elysian fields, he takes the shape of a poodle, roaming amongst humans. Outraged by the state of his creation, he decides to put an end to the misery. Apocalypse now. Just like in earth's creation, there must be order in its destruction. It took seven days to build the whole thing, now it takes seven corrupt souls to undo it all. And so God sends out his adoptive son Ralf, aka "The Evil", to hunt for souls. May it be a mansion, fame, fortune, sex or cultural distinction: Ralf fulfills one wish after another - in the most unpleasant manner, but always by the letter; one soul after the other is being sold over to him. The other gods are getting nervous. If God erases everything, they have to start all over, a complete repeat performance from Dinosaurs to recycling. There is only one way out: Ralf has to find true love, and as quickly as possible.
