Rex Resolution 5: Ein perfekter Mord


This is the so-called 'naughty' episode where us delicate viewers in Australia were spared the 'x-rated' version. If you want to see what was edited out for us, check out the clip above. Note, that it's probably not suitable viewing for younger Rex fans, even though some of the later Rex episodes got a bit heated.

Beyond the physical exertion, it seems it is true what they say, microwaved food is not that good for you. Ask the poor tavern owner whose pacemaker went into a tailspin when he heated up some fried chicken.
Still Moser knows there's something more afoot than a funky piece of chicken and he and Rex are soon on the case. It's all about interwoven family relationships (and I thought my family was dysfunctional!)
Other notables: This episode marks the first mention of Stocki's stomach operation, Moser boxer alert if that's your thing.




Other players include Veronika Ferres as Gerda Felsner, Christine Neubauer as Helga Felsner, and Florentin Groll as Hubert Felsner.

Also, not listed for this episode in IMDB, the late Georg Trenkwitz.



More Recyclers with Michael Rastl, Hans Felsner here, Gasser Sen in Toedesrennen (1996) and as Thomas Faerber in Sein Letzer Sonntag (2004). Michael also appears in Stockinger as Kronreif in Toed in Saalbach (1997). Heinz Petters also reappears in this episode as Wuerstlmann (see Endstation Wien for details).
