In this kinship season episode, Risa traces a line from struggling houseplants in a Montreal apartment to global systems built on the use of bodies—human and more-than-human. Through the biology of spider plants, the story of Henrietta Lacks, and a life rebuilt after rupture, this is a meditation on survival, resistance, and the quiet ways we keep each other alive.
