Two kinds of blood
Schimanski seeks relaxation on the soccer field. And there, a man is beaten to death, apparently the victim of the increasingly brutal brawls between soccer fans. Is the dead man really the victim of the fans, or did he have something to do with the illegal recruitment of foreign workers, or did he perhaps want to monetize his knowledge and was therefore eliminated?

Uproar in a factory housing project in Duisburg: it is scheduled for sale and demolition. Industrialist Grassmann regrets the fate of the residents, but he, too, is forced by economic necessity.

A dead man lies in a Duisburg bus - apparently the accidental victim of a stabbing. The murdered man was the owner of a dance studio that he ran together with his wife, Manuela Prinz.
The investigation reveals that the perpetrator is a Thai. But when the detectives track him down, they find another body. Everything indicates that the Thai committed suicide. Schimanski suspects that the aloof Manuela is not telling him everything she knows. But suddenly it is she who asks him for help: her husband's "business friends" have contacted her and threatened her life if she is not willing to secure further "deliveries".
Read MoreSchimanski - Moltke
Schimanski and Thanner are confronted with a case that happened a long time ago and that they were unable to solve: in 1978, one of the perpetrators was seriously injured during a bank robbery and was then executed in the bank by the leader of the gang. The perpetrators managed to escape - except for the Pole Zbiginiew Pawlak, who waited next to his dead brother until the police arrived. During the subsequent investigation, Pawlak was unable to say a word. The press then nicknamed him "Moltke", which he kept even during his prison sentence because he remained stubbornly silent.
