Cousins Leonard "Spike" Johnson ([[Patrick O'Bryan]]) and Hoax Arthur Wilmoth
([[Stephen Geoffreys]]) are teenagers who live with Hoax's overtly religious and
domineering mother, Lucy Wilmoth ([[Sandy Dennis]]). While Spike is the
neighborhood motorcycle bad boy, Hoax is an introverted nerd. Even though Spike
genuinely cares for his cousin and protects him from bullies, Hoax is filled
with resentment that he cannot stand up for himself or succeed romantically
(both of which Spike does effortlessly).

Both boys stumble upon 976-EVIL, which, on the surface, is just a [[novelty]]
phone line that offers creepy-themed [[fortune-telling|fortunes]] for a few
dollars. However, the line is actually used by [[Satan]] to subtly corrupt
[[wikt:mortal|mortal]]s into his bidding. Spike loses interest in the line
quickly, but Hoax soon discovers the true nature of the line and uses it to get
revenge on everyone who has wronged him.

There were a few major trade cities with access to the ocean which brought in
and launched trade boats, distributing goods all around the Mediterranean.<ref
name=":1" />
[[Pisa]], situated near the mouth of the Arno, became a place through which
there was a lot of trade traffic, particularly with the people on
[[Sardinia]].<ref name=":6">{{Cite book |last=Abulafia |first=David |title=The

[[Populonia]] was the only Etruscan settlement on the sea<ref name=":3" />, but
many inland cities had sister cities with ports.<ref name=":1" /> Populonia, as
early as the iron age had walls for fortification to protect from attacks
originating from the sea. The city took in mostly metals from Elba and
redistributed them.<ref name=":3" />

politics) ==
Etruscan ships were crewed by different groups of people for different reasons.
The main use, and the one for which there is the most evidence, was trade. There
was also an Etruscan naval presence and written accounts of naval battles
between the Etruscans, with the help of their allies, and the other habitants of
the Mediterranean. Etruscan pirates are a controversial topic among scholars,
who use the evidence supporting the idea that they existed and the contesting
evidence used to argue that they didn't, or at the very least, didn't exist in
the capacity they were written about.

An Attic red-figure [[Dionysus Cup|cup]] displays this scene, depicting what is
inferred as a typical Greek pirate ship. However, the techniques seen in
Etruscan ship building lean more towards defense, as is the case with merchant
ships, than offense, as would be the case for pirates. Pirates, in order to have
the capability of seeking out merchant ships and intercepting them, need to use
ships faster than merchant ships, like warships.<ref name=":3" />

It's also thought that the scene depicted on the Aristothonos Krater could be a
depiction of an encounter between Etruscan pirates and a Greek warship.<ref
name=":1" /> Additionally, there were big ports around the Mediterranean that
handled a lot of marine traffic, specifically in Carthage, that could have been
a kind of refuge for Etruscan and Greek pirates.<ref name=":6" />
