Doris Donath is just one doorstep away from making a career as a successful banker. Currently she has the position of team leader, but as assistant director Stracher claims to like her and supports her aims, she is highly motivated to go further.

Now Stracher refuses to support Doris any longer and begins to blackmail her.—Oliver Heidelbach
