 SEASON 3, EPISODE 4 CRIPPLED INSIDE The dreams of teenaged ice skater Rachel Horn (Stephanie Morgenstern) are dashed forever when she runs into the path of an oncoming car while fleeing an attempted gang rape. Her injuries confine the embittered young woman to a wheelchair, where she spends her days silently staring out the window. But one spring day, Rachel's mother persuades her to go to a local yard sale to get some air. There, Rachel's eye is drawn to an antique wicker wheelchair. Quietly, an old man pushes it toward her and after mysteriously whispering that it could heal her, gives it to Rachel as a gift. In the privacy of her bedroom, Rachel discovers the chair's secret- she can leave her crippled body behind in the chair while her transparent astral presence is free to roam and allow her the chance to take her revenge against the classmates who tried to rape her.
