Episode 7: Love me!
Feline Wagner disappeared a year ago and a friend reported her missing. Now her body is found by chance in a burial forest during preparations for an urn burial. An argument at the site distracts Faber: It's hard to miss the fact that Commissioner Bönisch and the KTU member Sebastian Haller are already having their private dispute on duty again. Observing that Martina Bönisch's emotional life is putting a strain on herself and her work doesn't leave Faber unmoved.
Rosa Herzog and Jan Pawlak contact the Ihle funeral home: The gravesite was reserved here, a few days after Feline Wagner disappeared. It was paid for in cash by a man who gave a false name. Another murder victim is rescued, just a few steps away from the first. There was a year between the two murders - and soon twelve months have passed again...
Episode 9: Prophet
What begins as a completely "normal" murder investigation takes on ever wider ramifications: The shopaholic Magnus Rosponi is found beaten to death in his apartment.
But neither his cheerful bowling friends nor Silke Haller, who recognizes the dead man as a teenage crush, can explain why the popular man had to die. Instead, Professor Boerne finds a strange, small object in the corpse. Thiel discovers parallel amorous entanglements. And when the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution turns up in the shady characters Muster and Mann, things get absurd.
Apparently Thiel and Boerne have stirred up a hornet's nest and even attracted the attention of an assassin. But how is it all connected? And what's the story with the little dog that loves eating bananas?

Juan's father is the ambassador of an authoritarian country. The questionable despot is known for having members of the opposition and journalists arrested and tortured. While Juan's girlfriend Hanna has the worst fears, his best friend August suspects that the boy just wants to avoid the official celebrations of the state visit. Whatever the reason, Juan's disappearance puts the Bergsons, the teachers who run the school, in distress. The good reputation of the school is its most important asset. In the course of the investigations by Falke and Grosz, the boy's bodyguard comes under suspicion, especially when a blackmail letter appears: Juan's kidnappers are trying to free imprisoned opponents of the regime and journalists.

Episode 13: Fair's Fair
Eisner (Harald Krassnitzer) and Fellner (Adele Neuhauser) are called to a crystal-clear case: two bodies and a perpetrator who actually alerted the police himself and is waiting for the investigators at the crime scene—complete with the murder weapon, a motive, and a full confession. It appears to be a crime of passion—a cuckolded husband who simply snapped. Everything could have gone so "smoothly," were it not for the fact that the country's most cunning defense attorney had taken on the accused's case—and secured an acquittal. Shortly thereafter, the attorney himself ends up on the autopsy table—and the acquitted man vanishes without a trace. To top it all off, "Inkasso" Heinzi (Simon Schwarz)—an old acquaintance of Moritz and Bibi—shows up once again to put the pair's friendship to a grueling test.

When Mila Sahin sees through this,she is shaken by the tragic fate of her colleague and initially covers him. But Borowski's constant going it alone finally forces her to involve her superior Schladitz.
