Overview
The senior boss Karl Grimm is found dead in the vestibule of his hotel. Reason for his adult children, Heike, Walter and Pia, to start the war of inheritance. None of the three is too bad to cast suspicion on the siblings and to present themselves in the best possible light. Lena Odenthal has to overcome a wall of lies, intrigues and suspicions - and she can't even count on the official help of her colleague Mario Kopper, because he is struggling in the hotel kitchen. Due to a mix-up, daughter Pia mistakes the inspector for the new cook and quickly sends him to the kitchen before he can clear up the mix-up. There, between potato salad and Jägerschnitzel, Mario Kopper tries to get important information about the murder case from the employees - a sweaty affair even for a hobby cook. Meanwhile, Lena Odenthal is trying to solve the mystery of why Karl Grimm fell over the banister at one o'clock in the morning while his apartment door was locked and the key was hanging in the apartment.
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.
