action

Due to the information from the business owner Pallenburg, Commissioner Haferkamp arrests the serial burglar Brossberg. In the previous firefight, Haferkamp's brother is killed. At the end of the court hearing, Brossberg swears revenge on the inspector and his lover Frau Pallenburg. Haferkamp doesn't really care because he believes that after a long prison sentence, no one will think of retribution.

When Brossberg was released eight years later, Ms. Pallenburg stood in front of Haferkamp's door and claimed that she was afraid of Brossberg because he had allegedly wanted to come to her apartment. Ms. Pallenburg announces that she wants to stay with Haferkamp for the time being. Haferkamp is not very enthusiastic about this and tries to remove her from his apartment with the help of the patrol police. When Mrs. Pallenburg threatens to commit suicide, he reluctantly accommodates her in his apartment, although he cannot take any concrete measures and has nothing against Brossberg. Brossberg, in turn, is shadowed by Kreutzer on his own, but seems to lead an inconspicuous existence, so that initially nothing reminds of the vows of vengeance expressed eight years ago.

The story takes a turn when a shot is fired from the building shell opposite at Haferkamp and Ms. Pallenburg's apartment. Brossberg is suspected of being able to escape the police at first, but is then put in a colliery by Haferkamp. While chasing a blast furnace, both suffer from carbon monoxide poisoning. Haferkamp passes out in front of Brossberg, who - instead of killing him - walks past him and is hospitalized with the same poisoning. Now Haferkamp - also through tips from his ex-wife Ingrid - doubts about the role of Mrs. Pallenburg. It turns out that she has his apartment wiretapped with the help of a bug, staged the attempted murder herself and wants to eliminate Haferkamp together with Brossberg, who has since been released from custody. Haferkamp lets himself be anesthetized with a sleeping pill in his apartment and puts her life in danger when Mrs. Pallenburg manipulates the old coke heater and gas flows into the living room with the sleeping Haferkamp. However, since Haferkamp had only apparently drunk the sleeping pill, he escaped the toxic smoke gases in good time. He confronts Mrs. Pallenburg, who tries to escape from the apartment. Brossberg is arrested on the opposite shell by Kreutzer and the police, who were there the whole time.
