This episode was fascinating. A young lady has an abortion as a result of a relationship with an older, abusive man. Following her abortion, she seems out of sorts--shouldn\'t she be. Abortions are traumatic experiences. The story seems to weave the pasts of three people together--the young lady who had the abortion, her older boyfriend, and a maintenance man of the apartment that the young lady shares with her parents. The three are bound together by ghosts of the past, and present. 
I am normally not an Elspeth Eric fan. Her writing is normally more feminine in taste. This episode is no different. Lots of emotion brought out by all characters. As far as a ghost tail, the supernatural elements were subtle which added to the dialogue of the characters. Overall, a great episode that probably connects with female listeners. 4 stars.
If this episode were acted out today (2013) I could see/hear Julia Roberts and George Cloony playing the parents, Bruce Willis playing the part of John Draper, Steve Busceme acting as the creepy maintenance man, and an innocent Ellen Paige playing the part of the young lady.
