Gladly. Here is a description for Ad Vitam Season 1 Episode 3:

In Episode 3 of Ad Vitam Season 1, the story picks up several years after Claire's initial investigation into the suicide pact between the teenagers. We find ourselves in a futuristic setting, where the population is stimulated by a fictional drug called Nora which is a substance that allows people to be happy about the prospect of living forever. One of the characters, Darius, is investigating a series of murders that have occurred in the city. This investigation leads him to a woman named Reshef who is implicated in the crime spree. Darius has a history with Reshef and had previously been in love with her. The detective must confront his feelings to remain focused on his duty.

Meanwhile, The Convocation is still pursuing the research into immortality. One of the elders, Ida, shares her concerns about the perenniality project with the rest of the council, revealing that the program has been a failure so far. The goal of making people live forever is being hindered by the fact that as humans live longer, their bodies become more resistant to rejuvenation. Nevertheless, the council decides to move forward with a new program aimed at prolonging life.

Later on, Darius meets with Reshef who has been diagnosed with a degenerative disease by the council. In their discussion, it becomes apparent that the murders were committed by Reshef as an act of desperation to highlight the council's hypocrisy in pursuing the idea of immortality. The woman reveals that she was initially attracted to the idea of living forever but now sees it as nothing more than a curse as she has seen everyone she has ever loved die from natural causes. This distress has driven her to take action against the council. Through the discussion with Darius, Reshef finds comfort in knowing that she is not alone in her feelings.

When Darius confronts The Convocation with the evidence of Reshef's crimes, they are hesitant to punish her, as they see her as a martyr for their cause. However, they agree to have her sentenced to a life of solitary confinement. After her sentencing, Claire meets with Reshef and offers her a chance to end her suffering by taking Nora. The woman refuses, stating that she would rather die with a clear mind than live under the influence of a drug.

In the end, The Convocation's latest project is revealed to be a cloning program. It is a development that has far-reaching implications not only for the council but for society as a whole as it raises questions about the ethics of immortality and cloning. The episode comes to a close, leaving the viewer questioning the moral implications of the council's actions and eagerly anticipating what is to come next.
