Hoarders (2009)

Episode Overview

Susan has a compulsive habit of buying and selling cars and electronics, though she rarely manages to make any sales. One day, while she was out hunting for new items, a burglar broke into her home, tied up her wheelchair-bound mother at gunpoint, and made off with some of Susan's collection. Meanwhile, Michael's upbringing was overshadowed by his father's past as a Nazi SS officer during the Third Reich, who ruled his household with an unforgiving hand, even forcing Michael to eat his beloved pet rabbit to "harden him." Now, Michael is a hoarder, living in cramped conditions with his dog amidst the overwhelming clutter.
