Fighting the guilt he feels over the brutal death of his girlfriend's mother, he believes he must leave his Bronx home to find his true calling-only to discover it was in front of him the whole time. In "A Birthday Celebration," Helen lives an ordinary life for years before risking it all to discover her true sexual calling, even if that means losing the love of her children in the process. "The Berlin Affair" finds Tom traveling into dangerous territory to recover stolen art from a former Nazi-and possibly witness the death of a woman he is growing to love. "A Chance Encounter" brings Molly face-to-face with a lost child-redirecting her whole life toward the world of neglected children and mental illness.
