Against Georg's cynical advice, Ekki gets drunk to seduce to foxy women, only to wake up in bed and sneak out called late for an office presentation, having used Wilsberg's name to check into the hotel, ignoring the shower runs over the corpse of illegal Belorussian 'working girl' Elena. Ekki has a blackout but is held in jail, so Wilsberg starts investigating and Alex replaces the incompetent pro bono lawyer (who only offers a reduced accountability plea) with law firm boss Faber's son Markus, her lover. Wilsberg finds a trail to the other prostitute and the mysterious brothel owner, which Alex finds to be an anonymous mastermind but also Faber senior's client. Compromising pictures show Ekki was lured into a blackmail trap, but the only 'dodgy' tax case he was working on seems absurdly unimportant, old Lehmann's travel petty agency without major irregularities. Another murder shocks everyone, and a third is planned.
