- Guido's boyfriend Frank discovers a ten-year-old corpse in an ancient grave at a monastery. The victim was the monastery's abbot at the time of his death, and his near-dictatorial reign of the monastery gave him many enemies. Mitch has trouble bonding with his colleagues.—Dutch90
- Guido doubts Carine's sneer that Mitch, who's surprised to see him kiss archaeologist Frank, is just a spy for his Uncle, commissioner De Kee. The abbot resisted the city of Brugge's archaeological digs in another of his cloister chapels, and there is a relevant surprise: an extra, more modern, yet no longer stinking corps in a rich man's medieval tomb.

Van In takes a particular interest in another personal affair: the abbey's archivist Raimakers, is a former monk married to widow Simonne Vanderveken, mother of taxidermist Louis, who renounced a major inheritance of art in favor of the abbey...—KGF Vissers
