action
Chief Detective Franz Kappl will be his successor after Max Palu's departure. He bursts into the birthday party of Chief Inspector Stefan Deininger, who assumes that he will succeed Palu. When Kappl introduces himself as the new head of the commissariat, the company dissolves in no time at all and Deininger in particular reacts extremely angry. Not a good start for both of them who have to solve the death of a colleague in their first case. Kathi Schaller, that's the name of the young woman, had sung a few hours ago as Marilyn Monroe double for Deininger Happy Birthday to You . Three shots were fired at them. A striking feature is a precious ring, for which you can later find the matching jewelry case. The lid contains the inscription "In Liebe". In the evening Deininger, who had a particular weakness for Kathi Schaller, listens to her birthday song for him again and breaks out into unrestrained sobs.
A request for the ring in the Bader jewelry store reveals that it was bought there. The co-owner Suzanne Bader refers to her husband, who is currently on business. When Kappl wanted to find out more about Kathi Schaller from his colleagues, they realized that they actually hardly knew anything about their work colleague. Deininger tells Kappl that some time ago he drove Kathi home after a party and she invited him for a coffee. On that occasion, she told him that she had met a guy and that she intended to quit the police in order to get into the music business. Annoyed by a flippant remark by Kappl, the commissioners clash again.
In the photos taken at the crime scene, Deininger notices a man whose picture he can print out in order to investigate without consulting Kappl, and finds out that it is Charlie Wax. Kappl means to Deininger that he will not tolerate such solo efforts in the future. Together they drive to Charlie Wax. He loses his nerve and wants to flee, but Kappl and Deininger take him on. He says that Kathi was his girlfriend and that he was composing a song at the time of the crime, and he also doesn't have a gun. A later conversation with Alain Bader reveals that he had sold the ring worth 9,480 euros to a friend. Kappl expresses his suspicion to Deininger that Schaller was Bader's lover, which, however, he does not want to admit. Further investigations by the forensic team reveal that traces of talc were discovered on the broken door . The medical examiner Rhea Singh informed the commissioners that Schaller smoke weed and have had before her death even consensual sex. At another meeting with Wax, he shows the inspectors a recording in which he sings with Kathi. He tells them that his girlfriend was a natural, he wrote some great songs and he would have made the breakthrough with her. So why should he have killed that great woman.
Further investigations reveal that the Baders have had their backs to the wall across from their bank for years. Kappl also asks why Wax and Kathi had such specific plans for the future when they lacked the money and is convinced that they had a specific plan on how they wanted to raise the money to make it happen. This is also supported by the fact that it is established that Kathi slept with both Bader and Wax shortly before her death. When Kappl and Deininger follow Bader in the car, they witness how he is beaten up by two men whose car has a French license plate. When they ask him about the men, he claims not to know what they might have wanted from him, but at least admits on the basis of the incriminating evidence that he was with Kathi Schaller and wanted to leave his wife because of her. They had planned to build something new together. Kappl says he even believes that he loved this woman, but she didn't love him, she had completely different plans. As has since been established, Bader has a gun license , but his pistol is not in the safe, as he claims. The car with French registration is registered to a Monsieur Raoul, he and other men fraudulent drugs on a large scale and used Bader for money laundering . The inspectors learned from a Mr. Schmidt from customs that Bader had the appropriate authorization, that he was entitled to carry diamonds of considerable value and change with him. It is also determined that Kathi Schaller slept with Bader in the car in order to enable her friend Wax to slip away with the change in the trunk and the diamonds.
Suzanne Bader appears in the police station and gives the police officers a pistol that she found while cleaning up in the workshop, she executes. To her amazement, Kappl has her handbag given to her. When Suzanne Bader leaves, the inspectors follow her and witness her meeting with the French, whom she tells that they will find the package they are looking for at Charlie Wax. The two immediately go to him and brutally abuse him. When Kappl and Deininger intervene, there is an exchange of fire. Ultimately, however, the French can escape. In fact, the package with the diamonds is owned by Wax. Kathi gave it to him. Wax is arrested, but the weapon seized from him was not the murder weapon. Kappl and Deininger visit Suzanne Bader again and tell her that her husband's weapon is the murder weapon. She was touched with latex gloves. With the help of flakes of skin, they could prove to her that she used the weapon. Deininger gets Suzanne Bader to confess. She says that her husband and the business were all she had. Every day she felt that her husband had built his own world. She even stood by him when he set up the French business. That would have been the last chance to get out of debt and then everything would have been gone, money and the jewels. She quickly realized that Kathi Schaller had to be behind it. She was to her apartment, but nobody opened it. She took tools out of her car, put on gloves, broke the door and looked everywhere but found nothing. Then Kathi suddenly stood in the door and looked at her like that and then she shot that she was so angry, incredibly angry.
Kappl offers Deininger the "you" and has one more surprise for him, he campaigned for Deininger to be promoted to chief detective. And he organized a corresponding celebration right away.

Reviews
TV Spielfilm found that “Chief Inspector Kappl's debut was weak”.
Kino.de was of the opinion "that Brückner was the momentum that ARD wanted to bring to the Saarbrücken 'Tatort' by retiring Max Palu and installing Maximilian Brückner as Franz Kappl, the youngest 'Tatort' inspector of all time, bring along, but sometimes you want a furrowed face at your side. Because life experience [is] a good not to be underestimated when solving criminal cases. "
Thomas Ays from Moviesection came to the judgment “that the case that is to be dealt with here, given the two investigators and their problems with each other, [step] a little too much in the background, but with a largely opaque story and good actors to score. Burghart Klaußner [was] a safe bet, as always, and Andreas Schmidt as a disappointed musician and Lena Stolze [were] authentic performances. [...] The new team in Saarland [have] rough edges and [could] successfully investigate the ARD. In any case, the two commissioners [would] have what it takes. "
The critic Rainer Tittelbach said, “that the case of the death of a police colleague was cleverly thought up, put the new team to the test and also presented a few musical delicacies. In addition, guest Andreas Schmidt [could] present himself well (and emotionally) as usual. The humor alone is not yet right. Conclusion: not a high-flyer crime thriller, but exactly what one [could] expect from Saarbrücken. "
