Rich, semi-retired divorce lawyer Reiter's skull-smashed corpse is found at home by detached wife and heiress Elisabeth, whose own business is in trouble. His current client Ulrich Stegmüller was furious about an unfavorable court ruling they were appealing against, but it has twists for and involving his ex-to-be Sonja. Meanwhile publican Jo unwittingly sets up incumbent Sven against newcomer Anton, who both want the same boathouse.
