Tue, Sep 04, 2018

Hospitalized after a cardiac crisis, recovering Edwin is bored to death and makes visit-forced Hui act as his partner on the spot to inform him about the latest possible murder case. Fabian Riem claims he killed his wife presuming it was a nocturnal robber. Dr. Rosalind Schmidt discretely joins Edwin's informal investigation, which extends to a second corpse: the robber who operated in the neighborhood since weeks, but isn't necessarily the same or related, so motives are crucial.

S3.E4 ∙ Gut für die Gerechtigkeit

Tue, Sep 25, 2018

After a bare breast feminist protest in Femen style, also in central Cologne, radical youngster Lisa Rossmann is found murdered on the street. Chief Plocher, Vicky Adam and Hui fail to keep Edwin and Günter out of the case, duly fearing PC nonsense from the press, but the seniors agree it's wiser to make young, sensitive minority member Hui their spokesman. First suspect is Lisa's long-term stalker, who proves inoffensive. Even the NGO officials -she supported other causes, like the homeless- consider her methods excessive, but the team finds alternative tracks concerning financial malversation.

Tue, Nov 13, 2018

Günter, his family, Edwin and their colleagues nearly have a fit as the newspaper prints a wanted still from a security video featuring their faces as antiquities shop thieves. Neither Günter nor Edwin has a solid alibi , so incredulous theft section commissioner Ennoch must consider them prime suspects, while chief Plocher insists on discretion until the case is properly solved, and the culprit strikes again, while neither has an alibi. Son in law Hanno stands by them at precinct interviews, but the real thieves are an ingenious vindictive pack from a far from obvious past which keeps setting them up cunningly.

S3.E15 ∙ Alles Symbolik

Tue, Dec 18, 2018

Three seemingly unrelated murders by gun in one day stretch the team, with Gunther still in hospital, to the limit, yet they grudgingly welcome the active participation of captain Plocher. Two victims have old criminal records, the third is unknown, but all share a shark-tattoo, which was posthumously knife-barred. It refers to the crime gang of Mackie 'the knife' Messerschmidt, dead two years, whose son Vincent claims to have inherited only the legal nightclubs. It looks like an inner-gang settlement.
