[edit] Synopsis
Christine is a news anchor in her 40's afraid of losing her job to a younger reporter. She hears about this new water called "Aqua Vita" which has the ability to make one younger with its use. She begins to spend massive amounts of money in order to keep up with the steadily rising prices and ensure delivery. An unfortunate side effect of Aqua Vita is that ceasing drinking the water daily results in rapid aging. When this effect becomes apparent, Christine and her husband contemplate what to do next; he decides to drink the remaining water in order to join her in old age.
[edit] Closing Narration
"There is indeed a fountain of youth, but not the one Ponce de Leon dreamed of. The true fountain of youth lies in the human heart, and its healing properties are without price. An oasis flowing everfresh from the headwaters of the Twilight Zone."
