They say that revenge is a dish best served cold. History has many tales of people who took the act of revenge to a whole new level. In this episode hear the stories of The 47 Ronin of Japan, and of Olga of Kiev, the Russian princess turned Catholic Saint whose bloodthirsty act of vengeance wiped out an entire city.

Some people find it so difficult, in fact, that they bring their remains home with them. Hear about the true bizarre story of Carol Tanzler, a man who was never able to let his true love go, even long after she was dead and buried.
