Overview
Jerry Paulsen can hardly believe his eyes. He is actually investigating the murder of Karola Dörffler, director of the senior residence "Wohlfühloase," who was bludgeoned to death with the award statue "The Grey Lola," which she had received for the facility's excellent leisure program. But now the detective sees resident Rita Fischer sneaking into the victim's office with her handbag open. Is she trying to finish what the victim interrupted? The finances of the sprightly senior are apparently not in good shape. Before Jerry can really put the pressure on her, however, she reveals several interesting details that could aid the investigation—because the circle of suspects is large. Particular suspicion falls on nurse Donna Pérez, who, much to the annoyance of her superior Konrad Heuser, is trying to found a union. Or does the head of nursing himself have a motive? Jerry's colleague Sophia Strasser catches him arguing with the young trainee Shari Oduro. The young woman from Africa is under Donna Pérez's special protection. And what role does the caretaker and hobby musician Wickerl Hammerschmied play? Thanks to his afternoon dance events, he has some explosive news for Jerry. Johanna also has something important to tell him—but Jerry is currently fighting a hopeless battle for clean dishes in his all-male flat share with Beissl. Will the perpetrator be caught—and will things also turn out well at the Beissls'?
About the show
The series revolves around Chief Inspector Benedikt Beissl (Andreas Giebel), who lives in Berchtesgaden with his wife Elisabeth and their three daughters, Maria, Johanna, and Eva. Beissl has been upholding law and order in Berchtesgaden for decades. Much to his annoyance, he is one day assigned a new colleague. Until now, the solitary inspector has preferred to work alone. His new partner, Jerry Paulsen (Peter Marton), is the son of a Black GI and a landlady from Bad Aibling. He is quite daring, a team player, and moved from Hamburg to Bavaria for love. However, Jerry's love interest happens to be Beissl's daughter, Johanna. In each episode, the two police commissioners must solve a murder in the area. The locally rooted Beissl often knows the victims, their environment, and potential perpetrators.
