Overview
A young woman lies dead at the port, raped and suffocated. Kopper remembers a similar case in Mannheim. Based on this clue, Lena finds more unsolved murders in Mannheim and Ludwigshafen. Are the detectives on the trail of a serial killer targeting confident, athletic women? During their investigations, Lena Odenthal and Mario Kopper come across a ship that was instopped at the port in question, Mirko Zessner works there, with a previous conviction for rape. But Lena doubts: could it be that the wanted murderer is so calculated that he planned Zessner as a "pawn victim"? Otherwise, the break-ins into the victims' homes make no sense.

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.
