Aided by her reluctant husband, Douglas, the couple seeks out Katseus in hopes he will agree to help her. But with Judith’s determination, along with her sympathy and appreciation for Katseus and his mission, stirred unanticipated emotions in the doctor. He rediscovers his own heart just in time to have it broken as the forces that have brought him and Judith together must ultimately divide them.
