From another prostitute Marina he learns that the gang use the girls to produce babies for influential people who, for various reasons, cannot have children of their own. If the girls are HIV positive like Sofi, they are killed, a fact that Anna had uncovered. Harry approaches Anna's father who says he knew what was happening but wanted to shield Anna from it, before dropping another bombshell. With the British ambassador and other dignitaries involved in the plot, the pathologists have to trust Orban if they are to bring an end to the racket.
