S4E101 - Stealing Doilies

This episode is a sort of hybrid genre piece. It's part supernatural action adventure loaded up with the overused trope of the sexy librarian. It's part docudrama about a mental health disorder that involves being unable to resist the urge to steal. Oh, and there are hints of a really popular fantasy role playing game.
