What happens
Emily Blair, a young woman from Blair's Sound, Massachusetts, is losing her hearing, and a Chicago specialist has offered her no hope. On the train home she meets Dr. Merrick Vance, a physician who works in a free clinic, and he later offers her a treatment he has developed. Emily is engaged to Jeff Stilton, but she begins visiting Vance's laboratory twice a week while her family and fiancé know nothing of it.

Written from the episode itself; it never gives away the ending. Every recording is remastered for the stream: cleaned of rumble, hiss and mains hum (and the old TV whine where we found it), then levelled in two passes to steady broadcast loudness, so one show is never quieter than the next.
