SEASON 3, EPISODE 14 REPETITION Award-winning columnist Walter Cromwell (David Ferry) falls asleep at the wheel after working all night on a story and his car skids into a wooded area, where it strikes and mortally wounds nine-year-old Heather Stevens (Vicki Wauchope). Panicking, Walter pushes the girl's body down a nearby well and drives off. Several weeks later, Walter discovers an antique cameo locket tangled beneath his car. When he looks at it, he is shocked to see Heather's face in the cameo and hears her voice plead with Walter to kill another person so that she can live again. Anxious to be cleansed of his guilt, Walter brings his terminally ill mother to the scene of the accident, and at 7:14 a.m., the exact moment Heather died, he suffocates his mother with a blanket. Heather then returns to life and skips happily home, while Walter calls the family doctor and asks him to arrange for his mother's funeral. But Walter's troubles are far from over. Now, instead of Heather's voice emanating from the locket, Walter hears his mother's powerful pleas to save her. What would Walter do? And would the truth finally come out?
