    • Trivia
      First time that Matula and Dr. Franck work, at least initially, on opposite sides of the story. This episode indeed doesn't follow strictly the common schema of the series (homicide - alleged murder arrested and stating his innocence - Dr. Franck asked for help - Dr. Franck asks Matula for help), but begins with a suicide, a widower whose interests are represented by Dr. Franck and a sister who wants Matula to help her to find elements to contest her late brother's will, which excluded her from the heredity in favor of her young sister-in-law.
