What Season 3 of Inspector Rex

This season follows Moser, Bóck and Rex in Vienna. Bóck joins the team in the second episode, so the season also shows how he fits in with his partners. The cases come one after another: an illegal street race among young people, a poisoning that spreads fear across the city, and a diamond heist at a museum. Then come a prisoner who manipulates an admirer, a heroin overdose, a string of doll-related murders, and a case under hypnosis. The team also looks into a matter tied to a diving school and an incident during a theater performance. Moser carries the weight of the investigations, while Rex brings the instinct that interrogations don't always provide.
