The series' original opening theme sequence showed the viewer that Matula had been fired from the police and tried or convicted. Dr. Renz has defended him and Matula is seen walking out of the jail accompanied by Renz. Before closing we see that Renz has hired Matula as a private detective.
By what is currently available on ZDF Mediathek, the opening theme for the first episode is the same as for subsequent ones, showing random scenes involving Renz and Matula, not what is stated here (though the original TV airing, or translated versions, may have been different). Also, Matula has not been defended by Renz, nor has he been jailed. His background is explained in episode 1: Matula, a police officer a the time, has apprehended 18-year-old Paul while he was vandalizing cars and testifies against him in court. Defense attorney Renz helps Paul get away with a suspended sentence. Matula later gets romantically involved with a woman named Laura, whom he has met through his work, not knowing she is Paul’s older sister and foster parent since the death of their parents. Matula befriends Paul and, when called to the scene of a burglary committed by Paul and his friends, helps Paul escape. Still, Paul is eventually apprehended and Matula is charged with obstruction of justice. Matula attempts to hire Renz as his defense attorney, who declines due to conflict of interest but provides Matula with a defense strategy that helps him get away with a fine. Renz meets Matula outside the courtroom, and the two go to a bar. Matula announces his intention to resign from police duty and find work elsewhere. Renz suggests he take up work as a private detective, as some of his cases require detective work.
