action

Inspector Overbeck is given the honorable task of looking after his daughter from Kriminalrat Landau and ensuring that she arrives at home safe and sound from her “graduation party” at a club. But shortly after he and Juliane Landau set off for home in his car, he lost consciousness and did not wake up until broad daylight on a country road without any memory. Neither Juliane is there, nor his weapon, but a bottle with knockout drops in his pocket. Fortunately, Juliane reappears relatively unharmed, but apparently without any memory.

The suspended Overbeck turns to private detective Georg Wilsberg, who should help him find out what happened last evening. At first Wilsberg tries to find out in the nightclub which people were in Julianes and Overbeck's vicinity, but the discotheque owner is initially not very cooperative. Without further ado, he persuades Ekki, as a tax auditor, to “put some pressure on”, and so he learns the name and address of Thomas Schindler, who works as a security guard at the university where Juliane studied. In addition, based on the special composition of the drug detected in Overbeck's blood, he can find the dealer who sells this substance as “flower fertilizer”. This Lemmy, however, claims that he does not know a Thomas Schindler. Wilsberg cannot prove the opposite to him either. In return, he finds out that Schindler Overbeck's predecessor was in the police force and was dismissed for an official offense, in which Overbeck played a large part. When he learns that Schindler may have deliberately taken revenge against him, he freaks out and explains that he would not put up with it. On the same day, Thomas Schindler was found shot with Overbeck's weapon, so that Detective Landau was convinced that Overbeck had become a murderer.

But Wilsberg finds out that Schindler was only used. The cause of the knockout drop campaign was Julian's friend, Sebastian Bachmann. Up until a few weeks ago he was a roommate with Lemmy Schönebeck and stole the narcotic drug from him because he wanted to help Juliane by all means so that she passed her test this time, which her father placed excessive value on and she did not want to disappoint him. They needed the security guard Schindler to exchange the wasted examination paper. They numbed him with knockout drops and opened the door to the exam paper room with his thumbprint, where they exchanged Julian's work. In retrospect, Schindler tried to blackmail Juliane, which is why Bachmann quickly cleared him out of the way. Overbeck had gotten in the way of their fraud attempt at the club, so they had to put him out of action with the drug.

In the end, Anna and Overbeck drive to the parade when the detective Landau tries to brush his daughter's involvement in the crime under the carpet by attempting to bribe.

criticism

Tilmann P. Gangloff from tittelbach.tv said appreciatively: “The story is interesting and unpredictable, the ensemble is convincing, the mixture of crime and comedy is balanced. A good 'Wilsberg'. "

Martina Borgschulze at rtv also rates positively: “The film doesn't keep up with the rapid pace of the opening sequence. But the noisy prelude with wild cuts should have irritated die-hard 'Wilsberg' fans anyway. In the rest of the episode, which is carefully staged as usual, tension and laconic wit are wonderfully balanced. In the showdown, the makers let it rip again. "

The TV Spielfilm editorial team gave the thriller a “thumbs up” and said with praise: “The regular staff delight the fans with the usual quirks, and there is also a murder.” Conclusion: “Quite funny and a bit tricky.”
