Summary For hotel manager Alexander Tomschi, it is a catastrophe that hotel management student Samira Malouf is found beaten to death in the storage room. She was not only the best trainee. The timing is also bad, one day before a big party is to take place in the "Unterschmied" hotel. Samira's best friend and colleague Babsi Zintl is dismayed and tells the detectives what a great person Samira was - and that she recently had quite a fight with classmate Julian Kunz. To Sophia and Jerry's astonishment, Julian recently took over the unpopular early shifts for Samira. Why? The detectives are in the dark for a long time. Just like Beissl with his daughter Eva, who receives mysterious mail from the University of Salzburg and obviously still has no idea what she wants to do after graduating from high school. Eva's big sister Johanna recommends psychological coaching. Meanwhile, events are taking a turn for the worse: Samira's brother Adil, who has been watching over his sister since fleeing Syria, comes under suspicion and disappears. Samira's mother Ina Malouf fears losing her second child as well. Caro finds an interesting sequence on a surveillance camera. And what is the boastful hotel regular Karsten Butenberg up to? The murder weapon, a candlestick, is discovered under his bed, and the suspicion is that the married man had an affair with Samira. Butenberg wants a lawyer. But the barman has a better idea.
