About this episode

Amy is a nurse’s assistant in a progressive care unit. One day, one of Amy’s patients says to her: “The tall man in the hat doesn’t like you.” Later that day, the woman passes away. Then, a few months later, the exact same thing happens. And then it happens again… and again… and again…
