Set in Austria in 1889, the story tells of a young woman about to give birth to her 4th child to a drunkard of a husband, having lost her first 3 children at various stages of their early childhood.
I have to say this is one of my favourite episodes of TOTU. O.k, the acting is a bit hammy and for parts of the episode you are wondering where it is going, however, when the twist is revealed at the end it makes you think how close he came to not existing at all, I found it fascinating. The setting is really well done (i do agree the accents are a bit dodgy) but i think it adds to the character of the episode. If not the most well acted fast paced episode it certainly makes you think. Well worth a watch in my opinion.
