The New Healers is a programme presented in an episodic format. It falls under the genre of a single episode, forming part of the broader series that carries the same title. The show’s structure is that of a self‑contained story, allowing viewers to follow a complete narrative within one instalment. In this episode, Dr Sloan takes on the task of probing the death of a soap‑opera performer who was widely regarded as unpopular. The central mystery revolves around uncovering who, among the actors and the production team, possessed the most compelling reason to commit the killing. Her investigation is driven by the need to sift through the various relationships and tensions that existed on set. The case forces Dr Sloan to concentrate on motive, weighing the potential grievances of each member of the cast and crew. By analysing the circumstances surrounding the star’s unpopularity, she seeks to identify the individual whose motive stands out as the strongest. The episode therefore centres on her methodical effort to pinpoint the perpetrator within the close‑knitted environment of the soap’s production, ultimately aiming to bring the truth to light.
