Plot[]
Jack is wandering around Hell when he hears a commotion. Arty is battling with a hell beast and decapitates it. While distracted talking to Jack, Arty is attacked by another beast, causing him to panic. As he is preparing to attack, the beast is suddenly killed by a well-placed arrow to it's head, and Jack is surprised to see it was delivered by Vinci, who like Arty is now also an angel.
Arty makes a big but facetious show of berating Vinci for being in Hell while still in training, and Vinci just sardonically agrees. He asks Arty if he can stay behind for a few moments to speak with Jack, and his partner allows it. Alone, Vinci has a sincere discussion with Jack, telling him that in answer to his previous question, yes, people dream in Heaven. He tells Jack his dream is that one day Hell will be empty, because everyone has found redemption, even Jack.
He plans to help Jack's rebellion, and tells him he's never forgotten his time in Hell, and that's convinced him to find a way to get people out. He has to leave, but promises to see Jack again soon.
