Episode Summary

Bitter recluse Nancy Waldron, who cares more about her cats than about people, ironically dies from being hit in the head by a cat statue. Othniel gives her a second chance to learn to like people by sending her back to the orphanage where she grew up dreaming about being adopted by the perfect mom, just like in her favorite movie. Instead she, or so she thinks, endured a heartless orphanage director, Miss Hannah, who forbade cats in the house.
''
''While her guide Mr. Smith is taught a lesson in humility and something about himself Nancy, now the orphanage's matron Peggy, tries her best at getting her younger self adopted by the seemingly perfect woman, despite Hannah's stern warnings. But as Peggy learns the inner workings of the orphanage and the pressure Hannah is under, she soon sees that many things aren't the way they seem, or how she remembers them.moreless
