Hubert ohne Staller

Hubert and Staller actually only want to catch an escaped parrot, but then discover that the bird's owner has passed away.

Bringing rowdy youths to heel at the suburban train station sounds like a routine job until Staller suddenly finds himself standing in a pool of blood in the public restroom.

According to Staller, contract killings in old people's homes are generally quite rare. But senior citizen Hannelore Kramer is convinced that someone wants to send her to the afterlife.

The only car for miles speeds through a traffic checkpoint without braking, flies off the next curve, and overturns. The victim: a sober doctor.

Hubert and Staller are supposed to teach children proper behavior in traffic. But then, teacher Beck is found dead, and teacher Sommer is nowhere to be found.

Staller finds a baked-in finger in his bread roll… but Police Councilor Girwidz sees the current dog infestation as a much bigger problem.

Hubert and Girwidz observe a woman attempting to enter the home of architect Nicole Jansen. The woman claims to have an appointment and that the doorbell is broken. Inside the house, Hubert and Girwidz discover that the architect would not have been able to open the door anyway. She has been shot with a crossbow bolt. There is much to suggest that her husband is the perpetrator, but Robert Jansen has a solid alibi...

Girwidz discovers the body of general practitioner Dr. Volker Imhoff in a toilet. Everything points to death by hypoglycemia due to his diabetes. But when Dr. Fuchs takes a closer look at the dead man and examines his insulin cannula, she finds traces of tampering. Apparently, Imhoff's killer increased the insulin concentration, leading to an overdose...

Hubert and Girwidz receive an emergency call from Dr. Fuchs: a corpse has disappeared from the pathology department. Hubert believes it is a patient who is only apparently dead, and Girwidz searches the clinic half-heartedly. But the missing corpse happens to be the father of state parliament representative Elke Schwiers, who has been pushing for the privatization of the clinic and thus the closure of the pathology department for years...

The police are hot on the heels of a cunning gang of burglars who have been wreaking havoc in Wolfratshausen's high society for some time. They mainly steal valuable paintings without leaving any traces behind. This makes the case almost impossible for Hubert and Girwidz to solve. But then Hubert discovers that all the stolen paintings were purchased from the same gallery...

Riedl is buying doughnuts at the Rattlinger bakery when a confused woman with blood on her clothes appears. However, she is unharmed, and the blood is not hers. She is Magdalena Meier, who has escaped from a secure psychiatric ward. When Hubert and Girwidz bring the woman back, they find the clinic in a state of shock: a nurse has been murdered...

Because a witness failed to appear at the police station despite being summoned, Hubert and Girwidz want to search for the man. Too late—he is found dead in the sewage tank, his workplace. Sewage treatment plant manager Ulrike Mettmann assumes it was a tragic accident. But it quickly becomes clear that someone helped him along. When it also turns out that the tap water is contaminated, a state of emergency is declared in Wolfratshausen. For Hubert, however, this warning comes too late. He has already drunk the contaminated water...
