action
The pop star Tony Gordon gives a concert in the Bad Tölzer Kurhaus. Resi Berghammer wants to get his autograph and goes to his cloakroom. There she finds him stabbed with a letter opener on the floor and the next moment she gets a champagne bottle to the back of her head. When her son, Commissioner Benno Berghammer, worried, arrives at the scene of the crime, she is perky again and wants to give a testimony immediately, but her son insists that she be examined in the hospital first.
Forensic doctor Dr. Robert Sprung notes that the branch canal is divided into two in the last third. The perpetrator must have pulled the blade out a little and stabbed it again. Only the second stab hit the left ventricle and resulted in death.
Benno Berghammer and Sabrina Lorenz find that the murder victim probably had more enemies than friends: bassist Max Unger, who is constantly broke because of his cocaine addiction, had an argument with his boss shortly before the concert; the insufficiently talented singer Franziska Schmirl hoped for a steep career when she went to bed with Tony; and Tony's manager Charlie Forster allegedly embezzled royalties , which is why the pop star wanted to part with him. His wife Susanne Hödlmoser and stepdaughters Kathrin and Maria are not really shocked about Tony Gordon's death either.
Resi Berghammer takes advantage of her position as the only witness and gives the local reporter Goetz from the "Tölzer Kurier" an interview for 850 marks - much to the annoyance of her son, because the newspaper now contains details relevant to the investigation that should not be made public.
The case suddenly took a turn when 14-year-old Maria Hödlmoser attempted suicide. She survives the jump from the school roof largely unscathed, but she loses her unborn child.
The commissioners learn from newspaper reporter Goetz that Tony Gordon was into underage girls. He underpins this with clear photos. Then they arrange a genetic test in the fetus , which unequivocally shows that Tony Gordon has impregnated his stepdaughter. When asked about this, Maria's mother denies having known anything about it. Sabrina Lorenz, on the other hand, argues that even the class teacher noticed a change in Maria. Susanne Hödlmoser admits that she just didn't want to admit it. The commissioners confront them with a testimony that their daughter Kathrin was seen leaving the cloakroom. Thereupon she also confesses to the murder of her husband, but when re-enacting the crime it turns out that she has no idea what happened.
Kathrin Hödlmoser comes to the police station and in turn confesses the murder. As a motive she gives the sexual abuse of her sister. She herself was also abused by her stepfather from the age of 11. At the time, he threatened to kill herself and herself if she told someone about it. When she moved from home at the age of 16 and moved to her boyfriend's house, she threatened her stepfather with going public if he ever assaulted Maria. He promised her not to. But when she found out about Maria's pregnancy, she went to him in the cloakroom and confronted him. It was as disgusting as he tried to talk his way out of it. So she took this letter opener and just stabbed it. When Berghammer asked how often, she said she had stabbed once, then he went down and whimpered miserably. Then she could only run away.
Now that the perpetrator has been determined, the question of who knocked down Resi Berghammer is still open. Benno Berghammer does not trust Kathrin Hödlmoser to pull a bottle over the skull of an old woman. In addition, the double puncture channel indicates a second perpetrator. Berghammer also finds it strange that Franziska Schmirl, when they last met, pretended that everything was okay between Tony Gordon and his manager, as if Charlie Forster had sent her to make him look better with the police. Since they have no evidence against the manager in hand, they set a trap for him: Resi Berghammer is equipped with a wireless microphone and is supposed to try to blackmail Charlie Forster, while her son and his colleague stay in the background and overhear. When Ms. Berghammer got so far that he asks how much she asked for her silence, she said she needed so much to be able to settle in Mallorca . - “Mallorca” would have been the key word to intervene, but the Commissioners hope to find out more. Only when Charlie Forster freaks out and attacks Ms. Berghammer do they act and can barely stop him from another murder.
The enterprising Resi Berghammer turns this experience into money: she sells the story to the "Tölzer Kurier" for 2000 marks.
