But years later, when Alex encounters Lauren as a stag party's featured entertainment, both doctor and patient are sticken with shame. Reluctantly, the psychologist chalks Lauren up as one of the inevitable failures of a challenging profession. But for all Alex's skill and effort, Lauren resists-angrily, provocatively.
