Episode Notes
The episode title, tabula rasa comes from a Latin phrase that means literally "scraped tablet" or more colloquially, "blank slate." It is a popular title for television episodes when the plot turns on some form of amnesia. Outside of dramatic titling, the phrase describes a particular perspective on human development.
