action
Resi Berghammer is invited to Vienna by her friend Gerda Feuereisen. Their daughter Fanny - Mrs. Berghammer's godchild - has her prom in the Hofburg . The night before the ball, Professor Feuereisen, a renowned neurologist , finds his wife dead; she was killed by rat poison, which she must have ingested between 7:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m. Your daughter has an alibi through her American lover Max Behn, who is doing an internship at the Grand Hotel that Professor Feuereisen arranged for him.
Benno Berghammer races to Vienna in great concern, because his mother has disappeared without a trace since the death of her friend, although his colleague Nadine Richter accompanied her to Vienna and should take care of her.
Lieutenant Colonel Prantl from the Vienna Homicide Commission is under pressure because within a week three women from different backgrounds were murdered by rat poison: first the coffee house owner Rita Reiter, then the rich Gerda Feuereisen and finally the pastor's cook Erna Schinabeck.
Professor Feuereisen asks Benno Berghammer to help solve the murder of his wife. Berghammer, however, wants to start the journey home immediately after his unharmed mother appears. But since she refuses to provide any information about her disappearance, she falls into the circle of suspects and is not allowed to leave Vienna.
In Nadine Richter, the old love for the profiler Major Joe Gabler flares up again. From him she learns important details about the poisoning that Lieutenant Colonel Prantl withheld from his Tölz colleagues.
Berghammer and Richter find out that all three victims took calcium capsules from the Klauber company against osteoporosis and that Gerda Feuereisen and the pastor's cook Schinabeck frequented Rita Reiter's coffeehouse. In addition, Resi Berghammer was with a mustached man and Gerda Feuereisen in the restaurant early in the evening before their death. Benno Berghammer buys calcium capsules in a nearby drugstore and persuades Lieutenant Colonel Prantl to have them X-rayed to determine whether there is thallium in them, as in rat poison . In fact, some capsules have been prepared with rat poison, with the result that the product is being taken off the shelves across Austria.
Prantl now has the following suspects: Beppi Reiter, who inherits his wife's coffee house; Fanny Feuereisen, the sole heir to her mother's million dollar fortune; Feuereisens housekeeper Grimpelstätter, who inherits 10,000 euros; and then there could be a previously unknown pharmaceutical blackmailer. Grete Domenika Klauber, the 76-year-old company founder, who does not want to transfer the company to her more than 50-year-old son, is furious and fears that the company will be ruined. She categorically rules out rat poison getting into her production because of the high safety standards, and she denies having been blackmailed.
Maridi Steiger and Beppi Reiter are arrested on suspicion of triple murder; Ms. Steiger works at the Klauber company as a laboratory assistant and also as a temporary worker in Reiters coffee house. So she had the opportunity to smuggle rat poison into the capsules. Berghammer and Richter do not believe they are guilty, however, because only a few boxes were prepared and it would have been too much of a coincidence that Rita Reiter of all people caught poisoned capsules. They suspect that Professor Feuereisen prepared a few packs of rat poison and put them back on the shelf of the drugstore - except for one that he intended for his wife. In the event of an accident, Gerda Feuereisen's life insurance pays twice the sum to her husband, namely two million euros - both serial murder and blackmailing a pharmaceutical company or their sloppiness in production are considered accidents. In the laboratory examination of the poisoned capsules, particles of an algae killer for freshwater aquariums were found. Professor Feuereisen has an aquarium in his practice, and he worked uncleanly when preparing the capsules. However, the evidence is so scant that Berghammer, Richter and Prantl reach into their bag of tricks to get Feuereisen to confess: Fanny Feuereisen is arrested on the pretext, whereupon her father confesses to the crime. The reason he gives is that he had to free his daughter from the clutches of her overprotective mother; she also wanted to sell the house, go to America with Fanny and end the marriage. Benno Berghammer contradicts the professor and accuses him of wanting to collect twice the sum insured. Out of greed, megalomania and arrogance, he didn't care at all how many jump over the edge.
background
The shooting was done in Bad Tölz and Vienna ; The Hollerhaus Irschenhausen served as the setting for the "Pension Resi" .
criticism
The program magazine TV Spielfilm writes: “The Viennese Schmäh is already half the battle: If you want sentences like 'Ned dös Herrli bite!' ('Stay nice!') Put a smile on your face and you will have an imperial-royal amusement. ”Conclusion:“ The Viennese air is good for the bull. ”
Trivia
At the beginning of March 2008, the ORF took the first repetition of “Wiener Brut” out of the program for reasons of piety , because on February 9th the mayor of Spitz an der Donau , Hannes Hirtzberger, was poisoned with a Mon Chéri and until March 18th in artificial deep sleep had to be maintained.
