Complete story — includes the ending

When Ed wants to learn more about his parents (who abandoned him as a child), he receives help from One-Who-Waits ( Floyd "Red Crow" Westerman ), his 256-year-old Indian spirit guide. Meanwhile, a gorgeous woman ( Jessika Cardinahl ) passing through town steals Chris' voice. One-Who-Waits tells Chris (via Ed) that the only way to get his voice back is to sleep with the town's most beautiful woman - and Chris (and the rest of the town) believes Maggie is the one.
