Rains on Me / Take Care Of All Of My Children / Spidey’s Wild Ride, Orphans, Tom Waits [377/378/379]

Some soothing, some heartbreak, and some extreme weather for Miss Yankey, as she examines another set of Orphans with Sam and Martin. Waits looks back on his Troubador years with tenderness, calls for care of the children of Seattle, and delivers a questionable hip-hop tribute.
