The Rembrandt Research Project's Challenge (1x7)

:

A representative from the Rembrandt Research Project from Holland, Dr. Lastman, arrives in Tokyo. He pronounces that the Rembrandt painting in the Tokyo Takada Museum is a fake, horrifying the directors. Fujita offers to buy the painting at a discounted price but they refuse. Later, Fujita and Sara visit the small regional Tokiwa Museum which also claims to have a Rembrandt painting. Dr. Lastman and Mitamura also arrive to assess the painting. Dr. Lastman pronounces it a fake because of some technical details, but Fujita argues against his assessment, providing a different analysis of the same details. Eventually, when faced with a companion painting, Dr. Lastman agrees that the painting is genuine.
