Private brewery Brockmayer's CFO Holger Ludwig's corpse is found in the owner family's grand home, skull-smashed. A break-in robbery was badly staged. CEO Johannes Brockmayer, saw his position challenged by Holger, who is suspected of fraudulent theft. Ludwigs' wife Petra knew he regularly used company funds at a small casino, actually as lover of the croupier, but could cash his huge life insurance. Johannes's formally retired father disapproves of his modernizing plans. Andy Lorenz looks forward to a course in a surfing town, confident like chief Achtziger about his well-reputed temp Antje Kögl, yet Seitz drops by to check up on her and goes beyond working her in, arousing motivational speculations in the precinct.
