Summary
With the help of an accomplice, Polish prisoner Borek escapes from custody while at the dentist. Pursued by Moser and Rex, Borek panics and takes an entire ballet school hostage, demanding that his accomplice be released.

The good
This episode sees another appearance of Fritz Muliar (Max Koch) and some nice bonding moments between him and Moretti. The whole gang gets involved and once again, works well together.

The bad
The contents of Borek's mystery suitcase (I'm not going to spoil it for you) is dodgy. If you watch closely, whenever Borek manhandles the ballet teacher she assumes a graceful pose. Nobody should be that graceful when a gun is being pointed at their head.
