[edit] Story
Hudson seeks the help of doctors, who prescribe medications — none of which really help.
He is awakened from his trance-like state, though, one day in a meeting with Sara, who also quickly falls for Hudson, and they get together. He eventually explains his illness to her, and she promises to help him get through it.
But due to the pressure of his illness, and his continuing kleptomania, they break up. He then embarks on a relationship with Dr. Blaine, but ends that when she becomes too obsessive. He eventually convinces Sara to give him a second chance.
