Summary Mechthild is arrested in front of the house of the recently murdered real estate shark Thomas Steeler. She and others were there to demonstrate against speculators who buy up apartments and houses around the lake and sell them again at a huge profit. This is embarrassing and a real challenge for Nele. Steeler had nothing but enemies. Even his wife Michaela Morgenroth openly admits that she hated her husband and that is why she separated from him. She is the editor-in-chief of the newspaper in which a recent celebratory article about Steeler appeared. Written by the handsome Johannes Riedler, who uses his charm to try to coax more information about the case out of Julia. But Julia tells him nothing about Marius Behrwald, whose traces are found at the crime scene. The homeless father is under pressure because the youth welfare office has banned him from seeing his daughter without a home. He is initially able to evade arrest because his colleague Fred Danner has a tip for him about where another apartment is empty. Then Jakob discovers a new trace on Steeler's cell phone. A train ticket from Milan now plays a crucial role. Paul comes to Nele's house for a private barbecue and surprises her.
