We have a new boss.

He wants to see all the unexplained murder cases from 2000 on.

- He will not find anything. - Mama said you're in Berlin.

- Maybe we could meet sometime? - What for?

What if the culprit is not from Menken's environment?

Someone with a mission?

Someone who thinks that the verdict in Sandra's case was not appropriate?

Excuse me I ...

This is Menken's dog. He is just freaking out.

The stepsister, Sabine Menken, we heard with Grosskopf.

I did not see him for three years.

Please check out the unexplained cases.

See if you can find a similar pattern.

Freya Becker

Jo Jacobi

What's up, Mr. Zöllner?

Look at me.

Breathe quietly.

Breathe quietly.

Exactly.

OK then.

Good.

Is he dead?

No, Mr. Schaller, he's sleeping.

Mr. Zöllner in Room 6 was restless.

I visited him twice, finally got him to settle down and rest.

Maybe you sould keep an eye on im.

- Alright. - Bye.

Bye, see you.

- Good Morning. - Good morning, Freya.

Nice to see you're back.

Yes, I think so too.

Everything went well in Lower Bavaria?

Yes. Thank you.

Yes, when your mother dies, it is always a tough situation.

No matter how close you were.

I dreamed about her last night.

She sat in my kitchen and served soup.

And then she said to me "Don't think that you are leaving me now."

Yes I understand.

Sometimes it takes a while until you can really let go.

Yes that's true.

Morning.

The guy from the auto repair shop just called,

He's there until 12 o'clock.

Tell him we'll come by in an hour.

Do you have a minute for me?

I have looked at all the files again all the way through to Thilo Menken.

There are two things I stumbled over.

I'd like talk to you about them.

Why with me?

You were at the interrogations with Thilo Menken and are not involved in any investigations.

I would like your opinion.

The initial statements from the bartenders and the two regulars,

all allegedly involved in the rape, contradict each other with respect to both time and what happened.

Some say Nadine was there, others deny it.

Four statements mention a blue dress Sandra was supposed to have been wearing on the day of her have disappearance.

But according to the mother and other witnesses, when Sandra was last seen...

...she wore pink leggings and a blue sweater.

That's one thing.

The other is, there is testimony that Menken, on the day of Sandra's disappearance...

was seen at 16.30 at a highway parking lot near Linstow.

Another witness claims that he had seen Menken and Sandra at 4 p.m. at the Karo.

Menken cannot have been in two places at the same time.

The testimony about the motorway parking lot in Linstow was, however, never followed up

What's your point?

I don't know yet.

Sandra's hair was found in the trunk of Menken's car.

He was seen by several witnesses, and thus incriminated.

He confessed.

He had a nervous breakdown here in our interrogation room.

Menken confessed that he sexually abused Sandra.

But maybe that happened earlier?

Not on the day of her disappearance.

The focus has always been on the Caro.

But what if there is a completely different crime scene?

A place we don't know about yet?

Maybe you will come up with something else.

Yes.

Morning. We're looking for Cem Atalan.

- Back there. - Mm.

You have a lot of nerve. No cop ever contacted me.

And now you want to talk to me about my testimony?

- That was almost two years ago, man. - Yes, we know.

Why don't you you tell us your story again anyway.

How high is your conviction rate?

94 percent. It could be 95 with your help.

Hopefully.

I was on my way back from Rostock and stopped at a highway parking lot out near Linstow.

- Tea? - Mh-mh.

No?

So, there are only toilets, no gas station or cafe or anything.

There was nothing going on. Two or three cars. I passed those two and parked five metres away.

Who are "those two"?

Well, the guy. Menken and a woman.

Yes. The woman was wearing gloves,

- I remember that. - Gloves?

Yes, white gloves. In the middle of summer.

They argued. She screamed something as I drove by, but I couldn't understand anything.

When I got oout of the car, they fell silent.

She turned away, and he looked at me.

When I came back, they were both in the car. That's it.

- What kind of car? - VW Polo, blue.

- License plate? - How would I know?

Can you describe the woman?

Middle-aged, late forties.

- Bitter looking. - Is this her?

Nope. No idea. She seemed more like a man.

Tomorrow, Yanik will cover for you on the Menken case so you can work on the unsolved cases.

I see.

- Is everything okay? - Why shouldn't things be okay?

I'm just asking.

- Don't be so self-important, okay? - What?

Because you didn't feel like it the other day I must surely be beside myself, desperate,

on the verge of a nervous breakdown or who knows what?

My goodness.

Exactly.

Stupid cow.

I tried again, and this time Nadine's neighbors talked.

Drescher moved in with her about three months ago.

A neighbor has confirmed that on the day Menken disappeared, he met him at 11 o'clock.

Theoretically he could have been in the Grunewald earlier.

Tell me, do you even listen to me?

I'm out. I have to go through the unsolved cases.

- Says who? - Silovsky.

- Oh, the great Silowski? - Yanik, shut up.

- Where are you going now? - Out. Forever.

Hello Jo. May I introduce you to Natalie?

Glad to meet you, I'm Jo. Nice that you are here.

- Everything good? - Wonderful.

If you need something, let me know.

- Many thanks. - See you later.

I can fool myself.

Just like I will later with you.

Come on, it has to be fun.

Sorry, but this isn't working for me.

- Have you made a decision? - Nothing for me, thanks.

Everthing is fine. Just stay and sit with me. Hey, wait a minute, hey!

- Did you see that? - I'm sorry.

I am sorry, too. Hello? Wait a moment!

- Stop, Madame, it does not work that way! - Stop that!

You know that I can leave if I want.

Then I have the right to know why.

It seemed like everything was fine. Is there a problem?

What do you care?

I know her. It's my business if you endanger her.

Everthing's fine. The man just wanted to say goodbye.

Was that what he wanted?

Thank you.

My pleasure.

Would you like something to eat?

With pleasure.

- Here you go. - Many thanks.

You are welcome anytime.

Thank you.

Hey.

What are you doing here?

Visiting you so we can drink champagne.

Okay.

- Where is Tabea? - At home.

Alone?

Elisabetta is with her.

She always leaves at six o'clock.

But not today.

Hello, this is Jo.

I just want to check whether everything's okay.

Yes, everthing's fine. Thanks, Elisabetta, see you later.

You aren't happy.

But, well, I don't like it when you just do someting without letting me know..

You used to call me up and show me to a small table set in the corner.

Deliver me a plate of pasta and bring me a glass of champagne.

Every now and then you'd come by and sa, "Is everything okay, Mrs. Jacobi?"

Everything okay, Mrs. Jacobi?

- A glass of champagne would be wonderful. - Uh-huh.

Coming right up.

- Thanks again. - My pleasure.

Ciao.

So.

Is it okay like that?

There's a man waiting to talk to you.

Hello, I'm Sister Labella.

- You wanted to talk to me? - Good day. Silowski, Kripo Berlin.

Sorry, I have a broken hand.

I am the successor to Roland Grosskopf.

We're investigating the case of your missing brother, Thilo Menken.

- Please sit. - I prefer to stand.

You told my colleague that you have had no contact with your brother.

Right.

When did you last see him?

Three years ago, something like that.

And why did you break off contact?

Because he was with this hooker.

- And this hooker's name is Nadine Krug? - Right.

What do you have against Mrs. Krug?

She made a pimp out of him.

Why a pimp?

Everything is in the files. Just do your work.

There is a witness who saw you and your brother in a highway parking lot near Linstow.

On the same day that Sandra Berg also disappeared.

That cannot be true.

As I said, I have not seen him for three years.

Do you have any idea what could have happened to your brother?

No.

Good. That's it for now.

Thank you for your time.

I'll get back to work.

See you.

- Hello Sascha. - Yes?

And? Have you considered it?

Considered what?

Maybe we could do something together.

- Do you have hobbies? - What do you mean, hobbies?

Well, I was trying to think of something we could do.

I see. No, I have none.

Okay.

- We could eat something. - Where?

- Wherever you'd like to go. Choose something new.

No matter how expensive?

Yes, no matter how expensive.

Good, then I'll think of somewhere.

Hello, are you Mrs. Fox?

Anne Liebig, Kripo Berlin.

Did you find Lise?

No, unfortunately not.

First he invited over the boys.

Playstation, watching movies, video games.

And later the girls came too. Lise was very excited.

There was always something going on, and he would always invite them in.

At one point, Lise said someting about photos.

I said, "What photos?"

And she says, "On the sofa in my underwear."

This rang alarm bells for me

I went to the social worker, the old guy.

I told him he needed to check ou what was going on in the Belitzky's apartment.

But there was no followup, and the children didn't say anything either.

The kids never said anything, they always stuck together.

Even later, after Lise disappeared.

Belitzky gave them money.

Lise's clothes were found next to the gym.

All of her clothes, you understand?

What did they do to her?

Have you seen Belitzky since he was released?

Nobody in the whole place has any idea what happened to Belitzky.

Don't you find that strange?

His blood was found here in the yard in the garbage cans, but no corpse.

The children were interviewed, and all the residents, but to this day, there is no trace of his body.

After all these years, do you have any guesses as to what could have happened?

No.

Good. Thank you, Ms. Fuchs.

I have not given up hope that somebody will tell me what happened to Lise.

We are working on it.

There was this other woman with me whose daughter had also disappeared.

She said, "Every time the doorbell or the phone rings, it is a stab in the heart."

Who was that? Do you still remember what her name was?

She was thin, with dark hair.

Her daughter was named Marie, I remember that.

- Ah, Freya. - Hello.

Pizza Golosa.

Bacon and sausage. Are you hungry?

Yes.

She blew me off.

Said we should just do our job, that it would all be in the files.

Really severe, that woman.

I have the shift schedule from that time.

On the day when she allegedly met with Menken at the parking lot on the highway,...

...she supposedly worked the day shift along with another sister.

But that woman now works in Halle.

The problem is that everything was so long ago.

Nobody can remember exactly what happened.

Sorry, I'm droning on. I don't want to bore you.

You do not bore me, not at all.

We even spoke to you, Freya.

Do you remember?

Can you tell me about it?

With pleasure.

I came for a month, every night, for four or five hours.

Someone told that he had seen Marie here with two men

I moved into her apartment because I thought she might call or come home.

If she did, I needed to be there right away.

I didn't go to work anymore.

I was out every night, searching every pub.

There was always someone who told me that he had seen Marie.

But she was nowhere.

And then Lutz killed himself.

It was all over. I could not do it anymore.

I could not even get up anymore.

Everything in me said, "Stop it, it's over."

Then I dreamed of Marie for the first time.

She said to me, "You have to get up, Mama."

So I got up again.

And I kept doing it. For her.

I need to know what happened to her.

It doesn't matter how awful it is.

Come on, let's go have a drink.

Hello, Elisabetta.

I'm really sorry. many thanks for coming.

- Yes yes, it's okay. - Tabea is already sleeping.

I left you some food, and the laetst season of "Miss Sue" is in the DVD player.

- Thank you. - May I help?

Yes.

Thank you very much.

Do you know where she is?

I'll find her. It's not the first time.

If anything comes up, call me, yes?

- Yes, yes. - Thank you.

That's Jasna. She was Marie's best friend.

I come by every now and then.

- I'll get us something to drink. - What would you like?

Water.

Freya with a man. Looks good on you.

He's my new boss.

- You'll reel him in.. - And if he does not want me?

He already does.

A water and a red wine.

- Not this evening. - Who are you with?

He is my new boss.

Do you think it's a good idea to show up here with your boss?

Good evening.

It's about Menken's sister, Sabine.

There is a witness who claims to have seen Menken and his sister at a highway service area near Linstow....

...on the day Sandra disappeared.

Yes? And?

Then Menken is not guilty and died along with Sandra even though he might have had nothing to do with it.

What do you want from me now?

I have to know if it is true.

Then find out.

- I want to stay. - You've had enough.

I have not had enough, I want ...

We'll have a nightcap at home.

Oh yes, we will. Let's do it!

Jo!

Yes, honey. No, that's enough.

Come on, two steps and ...

Hello, Elisabetta. Would you be so nice ...

Thank you very much. So nice that you're here too.

- Come on, sweetheart. - I need my shoes.

Elisabetta has your shoes.

- I have your shoes. - Great. Oh. It's okay.

I know. I'm just making sure you don't fall.

- It's great here.. - Yep, still a nice place.

We'll be there soon, no problem.

If you have to vomit ...

Sit down.

We'll take off your jacket, yes?

Come on, help me a little. Come on honey.

Yes.

Keep your arm straight. Help me a little.

Shit.

Put your arms around me.

I love you. Why don't you get that?

I love you!

Here it is.

That was a wonderful evening.

Yes, I think so too.

Just like it used to, when everything was so easy.

Good night, Henry.

Good night.

Hey honey. Hello.

What do you want from that?

It's too late for that now, Mom.

I brought breakfast.

- Make some coffee. - Okay.

I have pretzel sticks, sesame buns, Berlin buns, baguettes, ham, Salami with nuts, cheese.

Spreewald cucumbers and eggs.

- Super. - You sound better already.

Meeting in the lunchroom!

I have spoken to a colleague of Nadine Krug.

Three years ago they worked together at a brothel in Karlshorst.

Then Nadine canceled her room and bought an apartment in Kreuzberg.

That was a year and a half ago, shortly after Menken was arrested.

She even paid for his lawyer.

That's a lot of money for a freelance whore.

Good. I have a requesting in to look at her bank accounts.

- Good morning. - Morning.

- Good morning, Freya. - Good morning.

The sister who was supposed to have worked the shift with Menken has contacted me.

She remembered that at the time in question she had a violent argument with Menken.

During the shift she apologized for an hour, but the parking lot was still three or four hours away.

Not reachable.

And the others there could not remember the woman.

I called in the registration. Menken drove a blue Polo.

Oh really?

And you?

I sspoke to Connie Fuchs, the mother of the disappeared Lise Fox.

She told me the same story all over again, nothing new so far.

She mentioned that you visited her, Freya.

Yes that's true.

I wanted to talk to someone who had undergone the same things as happened to me.

That's all.

- Wouldn't you like to join us? - I have to go.

If anything happens, go to Sabri. He'll take care of it, okay?

Okay.

Hey, you only have one and a half years left.

Do not let them provoke you, keep quiet, stay out of the way of that ptick Achmed.

Gather up!

- I will come and visit you. - Form two lines.

Come on.

- I said two lines. - Of course, boss!

- Take care of yourself, guys.

- Take care. - See you outside, yes?

Samir, come here.

Remember what I said.

Good job, boys.

- Take care of the little ones. - Don't worry.

Thank you.

Hey, Murat, this is for you!

Dani is over there.

- Cool. - Have fun.

To signify how the agency will blossom and thrive.

Wow, with a vase? I'll take it home with me later.

Thank you.

Jo?

- Can it be? - Mia.

- So nice to see you! . - How cool.

Wow, you look great.

Well, you're still a handsome man. So you haven't been staying out late much?

- How are you? - I'm self-employed.

- Going well? - Clearly you haven't been around for a while.

Now they just swipe their cell phones. Nobody goes to the brothel anymore.

- Now you're exaggerating. - Only slightly.

And are you alright?

- Yes I'm fine. Really?

Yes, I'm fine. Really.

But sometimes I miss you.

I certainly hope so.

I have to say hello to someone. See you later.

Hey.

Hello. What are you doing here?

I thought you might be here, so I came too.

- Are you a friend of Dani? - Yes, you could say that.

I used to have a club back in the day. It was called Loretta.

Dani was our bartender, the best in Berlin.

Los of people came just because of her.

I can well imagine.

Is the Loretta still around?

Not for a long time, it got burned out.

Really? What happened?

Not important.

- How did you connect with Dani? - A friend recommended her to me.

I don't like that you are doing what you do.

Well, pretty ones. What are you telling each other out here?

He just told me about you and the Loretta.

It was a long time ago.

Come on, we'll take a picture with the other girls.

- See you later. - See you later.

- Good evening. - Good evening.

"Murder of Ferid Nadarevic.

See also the statement of Marie Becker! "

- Feierabend for a beer? - No, not today.

- Found something? - We'll see.

Well then.

In five to six years things will be falling down around our ears.

The Middle East is sinking into chaos, Africa is starving.

Russia is falling to the Mafia, and the former SSRs are left holding nuclear weapons,

IS recruits the unemployed youth of the whole world.

Thank you.

Every week bombs explode in Europe, leaving hundreds dead.

Those who can afford it emigrate to Canada or Australia...

...but they are tightening their borders.

America doesn't care if Europe goes to the dogs. Fuck Europe.

We are now the lost continent.

All this makes the question of what one wants to do pretty much pointless.

Okay.

So? What is your plan?

No plan, that's the plan.

What about money?

Money is not the issue.

- And instead? - The question of how to survive.

You need money to survive.

Money and career will no longer be things that matter.

What matters is how we save the planet. Society will be reorganised.

In what way?

Guaranteed basic income for everyone, for example.

No longer will everyone just be taking care of themselves. We'll have to work together to survive in the future.

We will create a kind of ecosocietyy which breaks the power of the lobbyists.

Where did you get it all from?

What do you mean? Don't you read the newspaper?

I am much too busy with the dead and spend too little time on the living. Unfortunately, that's how it is.

Well ...

We will always need people who take care of the dead

Yes exactly. I'm glad you can see that.

And what about women?

- What about them? - Do you have a girlfriend?

Not really.

- Complicated? - Yes.

You could say that.

- Dessert? - Yes, absolutely.

- Good job last night. - Thank you.

"Police Department Berlin, section 36."

I have info about the missing person Sandra Berg.

"Please tell me your name."

I'm sorry, I cannot give my name. Unfortunately it is not possible.
