S1, E2: While still in Austria, Georg receives a call from Erika Green, a Merseyside Police inspector, who informs him that Jeremy Hall has been found dead. Georg is shocked. Even though he knows that Jeremy is in poor physical condition due to his advancing cancer, the sudden death of his former colleague strikes him as strange. Detective Green wants to question Georg personally after his return to Liverpool, as he was the last person Jeremy had called. But for now, Georg decides to concentrate on the clinic. He meets up with all the investors: hotelier Franco Casutt, pharmaceutical couple Clara and Klaus Fischer, Chinese businessman Chai Dan and his niece Anne Hsu. Diana, in the meantime, meets with Edmunda Cerna, a highly respected biochemist who works and researches at the clinic. She tells Diana there is an enzyme that could help her walk again. As much as she longs for her old life back, she contemplates becoming Edmunda's lab rat. While flying back to Liverpool, Georg tells Diana about Jeremy Hall's death and his claim that the accident was an attempted assassination. Diana refuses to believe it. In England, Georg learns that the last doping samples he had personally supervised are unusable. Allegedly, the cold chain had been interrupted. Georg suspects the samples were deliberately destroyed to cover up a doping case. Things are not much better at his workplace in the hospital either: Georg's conflict with his superior escalates. Diana investigates Jeremy Hall's allegations and meets Mary Perkins. The journalist wants nothing to do with it anymore. Instead, Mary gives Diana a first glance into Jeremy's not-so-flawless past. Diana senses that she is on to a story for the first time in a very long time. DCI Erika Green and her associate Sgt. Ian Sabel has to face another body discovery: Betty Chong, the young Asian woman who murdered Jeremy Hall, is found dead.
