Henry Girard Flower Peabody VI, a member of Philadelphia society by birth and breeding, has always felt there was an element inside him that did not fit his sober side. As a young man, he kept his crazy, fun-loving girlfriend, Megan, a secret from his other friends and his strict but ailing mother. But when Megan suggests that Henry end his mother's lingering life or else, Henry realizes he can no longer lead a double life and must kill one of them.

I save these episodes to my audio/radio drama playlist but I also had to save this one to the mythic/folkloric list. It's got classic folktale and mythological elements to it and I don't just mean witchcraft. Megan's more than a witch, she's the eternal femme fatale and her counterpart in Henry's life is the eternal devouring mother who's always waiting for him at home and who'll never let go of him. They both personify negative aspects of what Jung called the anima, the link between consciousness and the collective unconscious, and we can either use that link to understand and integrate the forces that are steering us, or just be swept along rather than become more conscious. Jung said "Unconsciousness is man's worst sin": It's the sin Henry pays for with madness and it's the sin the whole western world paid for with WWII and the Holocaust, the sin civilization is paying for now in the Middle East and Ukraine.
