Episode 2: Vienna - Codename Kidon
A man falls from the top floor of a luxury hotel in Vienna. The Iranian diplomat and nuclear physicist Dr. Bansari apparently committed suicide. But why did he buy expensive opera tickets for the same evening? Moritz Eisner and his colleague Bibi Fellner want to investigate the matter, but the Iranian embassy and the Austrian Foreign Ministry immediately get involved.
The case is subject to the strictest secrecy - the dead man's laptop and cell phone are confiscated. The two investigators are annoyed, but do not give up. The hotel's surveillance video leads them to the trail of the shady lobbyist Johannes Leopold Trachtenfels-Lissé. He has arranged a secret deal with Dr. Bansari.
Eisner and Fellner find out that the case involves valves and pumps that are needed for nuclear reactors. A trainload of the high-quality components is to be sent to Iran via third countries. For the two investigators, a race against time begins - and against the Israeli secret service Mossad.

Episode 13: Borowski and the Children of Gaarden
The 60-year-old alcoholic Onno Steinhaus is found dead in a working-class district of Kiel. Steinhaus had a criminal record for pedophilia and, as Borowski and Brandt quickly find out, lived in complete isolation. Ironically, however, a group of children seemed to have gone in and out of the dead man. Apparently they exploited the dead man's desires, but - as they claim at least - never complied with his wishes. The police officer responsible for the district, Thorsten Rausch, seems to have capitulated in view of the social neglect in his area. Sarah Brandt's investigations bring to light a video that shows a boy - Timo Scholz - in a catchy situation with Onno Steinhaus. Timo denies having been abused. Borowski has to observe that Sarah Brandt is conspicuously often trying to get close to her police colleague Rausch.
