Bunce provides an essential service for those in need. He approaches John Treadwell and informs him that the octogenarian mother-in-law who lives with him will live at least another 32 years. Bunce's offer is quite simple; he will dispose of her for a fee. Treadwell initially rejects the offer out of hand, but the old lady is becoming more and more demanding, further eroding Treadwell's tolerance of her constant aggravation. In the end, he accepts Bunce's offer but then ponders what his own children might do when the time comes. Written by garykmcd / edited by Rob / re-edited by Hans Delbruck See less
