action
Torsten Schmitt hires private detective Georg Wilsberg to shadow his ex-wife, because he suspects that she has a wealthy lover and that he no longer has to pay maintenance if he can prove this. Before Wilsberg knows it, the woman becomes the victim of a murderer who, of all people, is run over by Inspector Overbeck during a police operation and is seriously injured and taken to hospital. However, nobody considers him a murderer, but initially only a harmless passer-by. Because of the media hype caused by Overbeck's action, the police officer is supposed to keep a low profile for the time being and is suspended by Commissioner Springer on the advice of the Criminal Investigation Council. He has to live with Wilsberg for the next few days and is not allowed to show himself in public.
Contrary to expectations, Wilsberg's assignment did not end with the death of the wife, because his client wants to know who the man is, with whom his wife has met. Since this man is Ingo Peters, who Wilsberg also believes to be the murderer of Elvira Schmitt, he can calmly further investigate. Peters allegedly met Elvira Schmitt at an anniversary party for the agricultural machinery company "Kehrer", where the victim had worked as a secretary in the accounting department. Wilsberg visits the company and is astonished to find Ekki there who is doing a tax audit. This quickly leads to some inconsistencies, because Elvira Schmitt was never married and Wilsberg suspects that the woman was abused as a spy in order to pass on the plans for a newly developed tax module to third parties.
Ingo Peters is a journalist and turns to Alex Holtkamp to entrust her with an envelope as a lawyer. Peters is murdered that same day. Wilsberg learns from its editor-in-chief that Peters had become a drinker because of permanent failures and was desperately looking for an explosive story. Commissioner Springer opened the ominous envelope and found only a list of spare parts. However, Wilsberg suspects illegal arms deals, which Peters had discovered, because the export country is in Sudan, where war is currently being waged. Wilsberg wants to confront Kehrer, but he has also been shot in the meantime. The perpetrator turns out to be his colleague Karla Berhenke, who shortly beforehand also killed the man in the hospital whom she had hired as a killer because Peters and Schmitt wanted to blackmail her. If she is taken hostage in the company's warehouse, she is effectively put out of action by Overbeck.
Wilsberg's client, who introduced himself as Torsten Schmitt, is an investigator from the BKA who, with Wilsberg's help, can now prevent the arms trade by acquiring the plans for the control module, which is also suitable for military purposes. So that Wilsberg Overbeck can “get rid” of his apartment, he helps him with his rehabilitation. He depicts the accident caused by him as an intentional act, because he wanted to stop Harry Keitel under surveillance by the BKA and the murderer of Elvira Schmitt.
background
Danger in Default was released on DVD along with the episode Bullenball from Polarfilm . Director Hans-Günther Bücking also worked as a cameraman in this episode.
The running gag “Bielefeld” appears shortly before the 6th minute of broadcast when a police student says to Overbeck: “Front? But we're here in Münster and not in Bielefeld. "
criticism
Tilmann P. Gangloff from tittelbach.tv says appreciatively: “The new 'Wilsberg' doesn't tip you out of your chair, but the modular system consisting of the different storylines and pitches works smoothly again. Solidly made serial television entertainment. Of course, the real fans see it differently. "
The TV Spielfilm editorial team gave the crime thriller a "thumbs up" and only said: "The Münster crime thriller as a murderer rally."
