Yowei has a problem. She's having trouble explaining the show to people who don't get it. She knows proxy conversations work. But why? How?

Part 1 of a 4-part quest to solve the mystery of proxy conversations. Yowei learns about a proxy conversation happening in a completely different context: restorative justice with proxy survivors and offenders.
