Not a very memorable episode (although the news was interesting to listen to).  Three wishes, the first of which has an major unexpected consequence, the second doesn't seem to have any consequences, but the third (and last) does.  Interestingly enough the brother didn't like the father and wanted to be rid of him and also didn't want him to know about the wishing stone which, in the end, helped rid the brother of his father in a twist of fate.
