Leipzig - In the latest episode of "Vet Dr. Mertens", the zoo crew grapples with Dr. Berger's unexpected exit. Navigating this challenge isn't a walk in the park, what with issues lurking in both the animal kingdom and the employees' private spheres.
Zoo director Jasper Winter (Dominik Weber, 40) finds himself caught in a dilemma upon learning the gritty details behind Dr. Berger's suspended licence from Susanne Mertens (Elisabeth Lanz, 53): anger overs his lack of prior disclosure mixed with a yearning for justice.
Hand-in-hand with Susanne, he contemplates filing an appeal with the state veterinary chamber to offer Dr. Berger a shot at redemption. In the interim, the vet finds herself bearing the brunt of daily operations.
Meanwhile, the students are bent on launching a social media campaign that encounters some gripes: it appears an invasive and bellicose hornet population has colonized the zoo, and to top things off, one of the sheep meets its untimely demise.

The peace in Susanne's personal life is elusive, too: when Mike (Matthias Komm, 58) reappears at her doorstep following an early departure from rehab, she's left reeling. Should she give the alpaca farm owner another shot?

Simultaneously, Susanne's son, Jonas (Lennart Betzgen, 29), is deep in wedding preparations with his fiancée, Gina (Amelie Hennig, 27). While she's brimming with excitement, he seems to be grappling with reservations.
At a family gathering, he finally voices his concerns - to Mike of all people: "Gina doesn't want kids. But I yearn for Gina, so it seems acceptable... I thought it was." Now he questions if the wedding is the right move given the disparities in their future aspirations.
Mike tries to console Jonas, urging him to focus on the present and postpone thoughts about the future. But will his advice prove wise?
