This is a great episode! Supernatural elements and a very compelling storyline really keep the interest! Five stars!

I went into this story with low expectations because I'm not a fan of tales about fortune tellers. This story held my interest and up until the very end, I wasn't sure of the conclusion. I don't want to give anything away but I wish the end went a different way. Sometimes things end up badly and sometimes good. When the writer doesn't choose the right path, it ends up hurting the overall effectiveness of the tale.

I don't quite understand why the woman was so upset at gaining second site. I'd be thrilled!
