Ed misses his mother, who has been dead for a year. He had lived almost his whole life with her and they had been very close. When a stranger appears one day from the "Happy People Ltd." company and claims that they can bring his mother back to him for $1000, he agrees right away. For a while everything is fine and Ed's mother bakes cakes and takes care of him exactly as before. But then she starts to act more and more strangely: peeling potatoes in the fridge, repainting the kitchen overnight, chasing dogs for meals, jumping over fences, and other things that ordinary elderly mothers usually don't do. Things really get out of hand when Rob (whom Ed's mother had sent to jail) suddenly appears.—Mika Perl
