Shortly before his death, Maschke asked her for an urgent conversation. Max Fischer learns from company lawyer Julian Gottwald that the company is researching the development of aircraft cars with investor funds. And the competition doesn't sleep. CEO Henriette Kloose also has no explanation for the violent death of her employee, to whom she said she had little contact. The PR specialist Amira Kantner looked different,who apparently didn't just get on well with Maschke.
As it turns out, she had a non-conflict-free triangular relationship with him and the programmer Robby Hagen. Further investigations show that the young start-up already has an eventful past. One of the co-founders died of an overdose shortly after leaving the company. The victim's mother, Hannah Lambertz, accuses the bosses of pushing their son out of the company.

The investigation shows that the dead man operated the sawmill together with his wife Maria Habold.
And apparently there were disagreements between the spouses over an exclusive supply contract for their sawmill with forest owner Hedi Malthus. The latter, in turn, is arguing with her son Uwe Malthus and his partner Carla Löffler about the way their forest is managed. In the further investigation, Bernd Reuther, Kerstin Klar and Julia Schröder encounter numerous inconsistencies.

While winemakers Carsten Löber and his wife Sandra do not believe in murder, Carsten's widowed mother Verena is shocked by the violent death of her employee. On the other hand, oenologist Tom Dahmen looks strikingly confused. As it turns out, Carsten Löber and his brother Niels have been deeply divided since they inherited the winery from their late father. Different opinions regarding the management of the vineyards are responsible for the family tensions. In contrast to Carsten, Niels and his girlfriend Muriel rely on new natural wines.
The investigation shows that the Löber winery is financially with its back to the wall. In the victim's apartment there are indications of sabotage of the winery.

Is there a possible motive here? Reuther goes to the theater to deliver the news of her husband's death to Lydia Richard. The set designer suffers a nervous breakdown.
She can't make sense of what's going on. Her daughter Mira, who is currently doing an internship at the theater, is also shocked. The commissioners' investigations lead to Hermann and Ulrike Kiefer. Frank Richard's therapy does not seem to have struck the couple living in separation. To make matters worse, the jealous Mr. Kiefer accuses the victim of having spanned the woman out of him.

The more they find out about the victim, the more it becomes clear, that Richard apparently had some secrets from his family.

A dead asset manager calls Chief Prosecutor Reuther on the scene. Julia Schröder and Alexander Witte conduct the investigation behind the scenes of an investment company. Sebastian Fuchs was stabbed in the park at a late hour. A robbery seems to be eliminated. As Reuther the widow Dr. Isabel Fuchs-Eschenberg delivers the death message, he finds that their marriage was obviously not carefree. This was not least due to the tense relationship between Sebastian Fuchs and his mother-in-law Hermione Eschenberg. Isabel's mother seems to have had a problem with the fact that her now deceased husband had given Sebastian the management of the Family Office. Sebastian's petty-bourgeois origin obviously did not fit into her worldview.
The relationship between Hermione Eschenberg and Gerlinde Fuchs, the victim's mother, and their partner Bruno Schreiber, who is not a blank page with the police, was correspondingly tense. Investigations into the victim's professional environment finally lead the commissioners to Christian von Buchloe, who supports the Eschenbergs in various sustainability and charity projects. He attended a meeting with Sebastian Fuchs on the day of the crime, but his statements raise questions. It is quickly clear that this complex murder case can only be resolved if Reuther and the investigators succeed in reconstructing the exact course of the crime evening. The episode is available a week before the broadcast in the ZDFmediathek.

After an anonymous tip, a 17-year-old is found dead in a holiday apartment. Now it is up to Chief Prosecutor Reuther to find out why the girl had to die. Rabea Finck was reported missing three days earlier. The suspicion of a kidnapping is obvious, even if there was no ransom claim. When Julia Schröder and Alexander Witte deliver the death message to the father, they learn that he is being threatened. A monetary claim seems to be the motive for the kidnapping, since Dennis Finck says there is nothing to be fetched. The commissioners learn that the Fincks have recently had stress with their neighbor Stefanie Gerber, who constantly complained about Rabea. Above all, Ms. Gerber seems to have had a thorn in her side that Rabea was with her son Tobias.
Is she possibly behind the anonymous threats? Another trail leads to Robin Weißenborn, who rented the apartment where the victim was held. As luck would have it, Weißenborn works in Dennis Finck's cell phone shop, of all places, and investigators soon find clues to crooked business. The question soon arises as to what connection there is between Fincks Handyladen and Simone Voss, who runs a bar in the city. To solve this complicated case, Bernd Reuther and the investigators have to find answers to many open questions.

Legal trainee Fabian Schumann collapses shortly before a trial in the courtroom. Prosecutor General Bernd Reuther and his investigators must clarify the circumstances of the death. Schumann was doing his legal position in the law firm of Dr. Magnus Strelleck, whom Reuther knows only too well as a lawyer. Forensic doctor Dr. Sahra Darbandi assumes cardiac arrest as the cause of death. There are indications of cocaine use. Bernd Reuther asks why the victim used drugs despite a heart defect. Or had someone specifically given him the cocaine to kill him? Chief Commissioner Julia Schröder and High Commissioner Alexander Witte find out that Schumann apparently had no easy relationship with his brother Elias. Legal trainee Dr. Alina Berg and Dr.Teresa Anger puzzles the investigators.
First of all, it is unclear how the two relate to their late colleague. In any case, there seems to be great pressure to perform among the trainee due to the competitive situation. And that Schumann had kept an eye on Teresa Anger of all places did not suit her friend David Reimann at all. There are therefore a number of potential suspects from whom Reuther and the Commissioners have to identify the real perpetrator.
