Säckler ('lederhosen' tailor) Johann Laubinger is found skull-smashed in his workshop by mayor Karl Schretzmayer, who jumped the cue for a prize piece to impress a Japanese colleague he hopes to sign a twin town deal with, which gets messed up by the music academy's string quartet guests from Rosenheim's own twin team, despite Achzinger helping release the evidence garment by priority. *Sven Hansen and Stadler find Johann Laubinger disowned son Christian, who runs an Asian knock-off shop, I favor of under-paid adult apprentice Martin Keller, who stole and resold expensive deer leather. Much younger second wife Anna Laubinger had an office affair. Alibis must by thoroughly checked.
