Sinopsis breve

En este quinto episodio, el protagonista (el operador de la Light Shop) enfrenta las consecuencias acumuladas de sus ventas: clientes que han regresado con inesperadas secuelas y una investigación que comienza a cerrar el cerco. Aparecen historias cruzadas de dos clientes recientes cuyos retornos del “otro lado” no han sido lo que esperaban: una mujer que recupera recuerdos que la vuelven peligrosa para su entorno, y un hombre cuya segunda vida revela secretos que involucran a personas poderosas. Mientras tanto, el protagonista lucha con una oferta tentadora de un tercero que busca regular o controlar las transacciones entre vidas.
