Baltimore when I was young

Warning: Spoilers
I remember as a kid of 12 hearing about this episode being filmed in and around Baltimore. I was living in Baltimore County at the time. As I got older I worked several jobs in Baltimore City and I visited many of the locations filmed in this episode. Mount Vernon Place especially. The last ten minutes of this episode is very well done. It is sad to meet someone that you would hope could be your mother, someone who turned her life around. You hope she would be the long lost mother that Buz never met. It was said with a quiet embrace and a kiss on the forehead from two strangers that will probably never meet again. It doesn't exactly offer any closure but it allows two lonely strangers to communicate on a very deep level. A very touching ending to a great episode.
