Tooth for Tooth is a German television film by Maris Pfeiffer from 2006. It is the 34th episode of the crime series A strong team with Maja Maranow and Florian Martens in the leading roles.

action

The dental representative André Konitz is murdered at a dental congress. Chief Detective Verena Berthold and colleague Otto Garber take over the case and are initially looking for a motive. The survey of the conference participants very quickly shows that Konitz was not a food lover and had a lot of love affairs - even with married women. In his apartment, the investigators find a collection of DVDs that Konitz has made of his intimate activities with various women. For the investigators, conference participant Professor Marie Rosnicek appears to have the greatest motive for the crime, because Konitz tried to blackmail her because his collection also includes a DVD with delicate recordings of her daughter. When the commissioners ask her about it, the resolute woman admits to having had a dispute with the victim, but she wouldn't kill him because of that. She has her own methods of dealing with people like that. Conference organizer Henry von Haase, who owns a dental laboratory and owed massive amounts of money to the victim, became the investigators' main suspect. When there is a witness who saw von Haase coming out of the victim's room at the time of the crime, he was arrested. He goes along voluntarily and admits the act. He had no other advice to save his company, which he recently had to transfer to Konitz as security.
