Summary
Will doesn't leave Hannibal's dinner party for his date with the Chesapeake Ripper. As a result, Hannibal alerts Will of his encephalitis that night and uses Will's recovery to explore his curiosity about friendship-- and what makes Will Graham fascinating. Hannibal's growing affinity for Will compels him to use a somewhat softer approach to influencing the man than he had originally planned, and Will isn't impervious to becoming the object of someone's affection after a lifetime of self-imposed social isolation.
TL;DR: S1 goes in a much fluffier direction as of "Sorbet." Will is Will. Hannibal is Hannibal, just a smidge closer to the man we know and love by the end of S3.

Summary
Hannibal decides not to frame Will for his murders. However, that complicates things in ways Hannibal didn't predict. After recovering from encephalitis, Will disappears. Hannibal doesn't handle it well.
When the bodies of killers start showing up around the country, Hannibal takes notice. And when Will finally returns, he's not the same person that left Hannibal behind.
He's better.
