The Woman Who Stole Flowers: 3* An American on a sabbatical in Budabest sees the same old woman repeatedly steal flowers from around town. She follows her home, but saw a young woman water the flowers. An archeological teacher shows her a Roman Flora doll depicting both a young woman and an old woman. Susie leaves an offering of flowers for the woman. Lacks something, but interesting.

Welcome to Heroism: 3* good but a bit vague at times? A new app dares the users to do something like crossing wildfires or exposing politicians. It eventually becomes anti-government. The maker of the app is rumored to have been executed, a final message asking for people to do the right thing appears. Very vague ending.
