action

The medical-technical assistant Myriam Ritgen is said to have killed the head of the clinic, Prof. König, with one of his historic weapons after a lunchtime. After all, she was seen secretly leaving his property, a multitude of indications from the crime scene speak against her, and she is the main heir. Brinkmann, however, is not convinced of her guilt and lets Ritgen describe the night of the crime to her while in custody. As an explanation for leaving the property, she gives the paparazzo Rob, who was on the professor's heels. Rob can only serve with blurry photos of another date. Mrs. König seems to be out of the question, as she was at a reception by the mayor in the Römer at the time in question . Brinkmann's case is finally withdrawn - but he doesn't care. Bothe and Wegener watch as their boss Marbach enters the Villa König with a bouquet of roses and Rita König leaves the house after his visit. Bothe overhears scraps of conversation between König and her lover Harry Hartung, which point to murder. Ritgen escapes from pre-trial detention directly to Bothe, who is supposed to help her catch the perpetrator. Bothe has his gun, clothes and money removed and Ritgen goes straight to the Villa König, where Marbach courts Rita König. Brinkmann can intervene while Ritgen threatens König with a weapon. After some back and forth it turns out that Ritgen and Hartung made common cause and in the end it was Ritgen.
