Summary
A gay tourist is taking pictures of men in Vienna. In his wandering in the city, he flirts and uses up three full rolls of film. He's later murdered in his hotel room, leaving Moser and Rex with dozens of photos but no way of telling which was the one that led to the murder.

The good
There's a good chase scene through the shopping centre and the solution to this mystery was a good one. The vet drops in to visit Moser and learns that he is a police officer. He claims that real police are not like the stereotypes, they actually do have time for private lives - at that point Stocki rings him and demands he comes in to work. More of Dr. Graf and Max Koch is this episode.

The bad
Klaus Händl was not convincing. Höllerer is absent completely during this episode although he does send his co-workers a postcard from Italy.

Disclaimer : Kommissar Rex is owned by Mungo film, Tauris film, SAT.1 and ORF and was created by Peter Hajek and Peter Moser. None of the characters, actors or photographs belong to me, unfortunately. I'm just borrowing them, having a bit of fun and then returning them more or less unharmed.
