Overview

Once again false alarm for the Leipzig Kripo. The parts of an alleged woman's corpse in the container turn out to be a prosthesis. Less than half an hour later there is a dead person in the immediate vicinity. A young girl was killed in her parents' house and fell down a flight of stairs. The fatal thing about the case is that Chief Inspector Kain had just seen the girl on the street. She was involved in an argument with her boyfriend and was forcibly returned to the house by himbeen pushed. Although he had arranged for a routine check, Cain blames himself for not having intervened himself. He finds the obvious perpetrator as Martin Kubelka in a BKA file. The saliva analysis agrees with his values. For Cain, the case is clear. Without waiting for the sperm analysis, he obtains an arrest warrant from the public prosecutor. But the next day, Kubelka is free again – due to a lack of evidence.

About the show

Tatort is a long-running German/Austrian/Swiss crime television series set in various parts of these countries. The show is broadcast on the channels of ARD in Germany, ORF 2 in Austria, and SF1 in Switzerland. The first episode was broadcast on November 29, 1970. The opening sequence for the series has remained the same throughout the decades, which remains highly unusual for any such long-running TV series to date. Each of the regional TV channels that together form ARD, plus ORF and SF, produces its own episodes, starring its own police inspector, some of which, like the discontinued Schimanski, have become cultural icons. The show appears on DasErste and ORF 2 on Sundays at 8:15 p.m. and currently about 30 episodes are made per year. As of March 2013, 865 episodes in total have been produced. Tatort is currently being broadcast in the United States on the MHz Worldview channel under the name Scene of the Crime.
