action

The young student Carola Hartmann often skips school and prefers to spend the nights in the disco with her friend Wolfgang Stettner. Wolfgang is friends with the drug manufacturer Klaus Zoske, who supplies him with material. Carola can't do anything with her boyfriend's affinity for drugs and refuses the material offered by him. Her parents are divorced and she lives with her father. Your friend Wolfgang regularly goes into his drug business as a small dealer in discotheques. Shortly thereafter, Wolfgang is found dead in the disco toilet, apparently he has taken an overdose of heroin. Behnke is puzzled because the syringe with which the fatal shot was administered cannot be found. On the basis of the car keys found on the corpse, Wolfgang, who had no papers with him, can be identified by the police, but the inspection of the car reveals no traces of drugs. An employee of the discotheque tells Behnke that it is not uncommon for junkies to administer the heroin without a syringe when one is not on hand, so the officials should not interpret too much into the lack of the syringe. A visit by Behnke to his colleagues in the narcotics department did not initially provide any new information, except that heroin is often contaminated by admixtures, which can lead to the death of the junkie.

Carola learns from a classmate that Wolfgang is dead. She seeks out Klaus Zoske, who denies knowing the background to Wolfgang's death. While he tries to compliment Carola, he confesses that he was Wolfgang's dealer. When he shows himself cold and without empathy and provocatively offers Carola that she too could have the first shot of him for free, out of an old friendship with Wolfgang, Carola in anger takes a bottle and hits Zoske with it, Zoske collapses. Meanwhile, Carola's ex-boyfriend Dieter Schwarz has informed Carola's father Erich that Carola's new boyfriend is dead and had something to do with drugs. When he finds hashish in Carola's things, he meets with Dieter and he shows him Zoske's apartment, from which Carola is fleeing, shocked about what she did. Erich confronts his daughter, who confesses to her father that she has just killed Zoske. Meanwhile, Zoske is found by one of his customers, Moni, who is shocked and tells her friend Joachim Schanitz, a dealer and also a customer of Zoske, that Zoske is dead, and he goes back to Zoske's apartment by himself. He takes the opportunity and searches the apartment for money and drugs. Meanwhile, Zoske, who was just unconscious, wakes up and catches Schanitz taking drugs. When Zoske tries to confront him, Zoske overpowers him and flees. Zoske is fatally injured.

Shortly afterwards Erich goes to Zoske's apartment to get his daughter's handbag, which she had left there in shock. Schanitz watches as Erich transports Zoske's corpse away to cover his daughter; he can't find his daughter's handbag because Schanitz has already taken it. Due to an anonymous phone call from Moni to the police, Behnke and his colleagues are called to the scene of the crime. The officials are puzzling over how the body could be removed in the short time between the call and the arrival of the police. In Zoske's apartment, the officers found drugs in abundance and lipstick. In the case of Wolfgang Stettner's death, it has now become apparent that he was at fault. The lipstick found in Zoske's apartment is identical to the one with which a message left by Carola on Wolfgang's car with a "kissable mouth" was signed. The officers only know that the girl's first letter begins with "C", Behnke instructs Hassert to investigate Stettner's environment accordingly. After his findings, Behnke seeks out Carola, who admits to having written the note. Zoske knew her too, albeit only superficially, and had not been with him in the last few days. Behnke seeks out Carola's ex-boyfriend Dieter, who says he saw Carola go to Zoske's, and also that he informed her father Erich and they drove to Zoske's house.

Behnke seeks out Erich Hartmann, who says that Wolfgang had a bad influence on his daughter and claims that he never heard the name Zoske. Behnke confronts Hartmann with Dieter's statement, Hartmann then admits to having gone to Zoske the evening before. Meanwhile, Carola also admits to Hassert that she was with Zoske and drove home alone. Hartmann, on the other hand, says he drove home with his daughter. After the officers leave, Carola breaks down crying, regretting not having gone straight to the police. In addition, Carola also receives a ransom note from Schanitz because he took her handbag from the crime scene and is now making her pay for its contents. She accepts the blackmail and pays. He saw Erich Hartmann at the crime scene and asked for more money. She is being watched by a civil servant from the drug squad who was assigned to the dealer. From the meeting with Carola Hartmann, they conclude that Schanitz is blackmailing Carola. The next evening, Erich Hartmann also meets with Schanitz to deal with his extortion, Behnke and Hassert intervene when handing over the money and arrest both of them for the time being. Schanitz states that his girlfriend Moni was the anonymous caller and that the two found Zoske dead. Hartmann then claims that he killed Zoske. Schanitz adds that he saw Hartmann transporting the body away.

While Hassert visits Moni, Hartmann makes a false confession with which Behnke confronts Carola. Hartmann asks his daughter to confirm this, Behnke makes it clear that he does not believe a word of it. After some hesitation, Carola admits that she knocked Zoske down with the bottle. Hartmann then shows the officers the hiding place of the corpse, which is autopsied immediately, which shows that the blow with the bottle was not the cause of death, but that a strong blow between the shoulder blades led to a spinal column fracture. A further questioning of Behnke's with one of Zoske's neighbors shows that at the time of Zoske's death only Schanitz could have been in the apartment. Behnke, Hassert and the colleague from the narcotics department go to Schanitz, when he does not open, they kick in the door and catch him firing one last shot before being arrested. Carola and her father are relieved and go home relieved, while Zoske's gun and the missing drugs are found at Schanitz's.
