Kamil enjoys friendly relations with the players and the club managers and has become a close friend of two of the players. One evening, at a bar, Kamil is made aware that the coach and sports scientists are supplying performance-enhancing drugs to the players. He later verifies this information for himself when he discovers a package containing the banned peptide Thymosin beta-4 at the club headquarters. Kamil discusses this issue with both the coach and the club management who, in turn, offer him an even higher salary in exchange for his silence on this matter. In accepting the offer Kamil can ensure care for his poor, aging parents in Lebanon. However, he is aware that Thymosin beta-4 not only enhances athletic performance (and is in breach of the anti-doping rules in sport), but it may also cause long-term health issues, but the players, in being contractually bound to follow instructions by the coaching team, are not really free to refuse to use this banned peptide
