License-suspended Thomas Borchert and Dominique Kuster represent widow Louise Schneider and especially daughter Viola, claiming on feeble grounds medical malpractice killed husband/father Anton Schneider, an MS patient of neurologist Dr. Markus Hoffer. Hoffer and his star lawyer, Borchert's friend Reto Zanger, demand an autopsy, which suggest Anton Schneider committed assisted suicide, with toxic help from someone knowing about his condition. The prosecutor therefore charges the widow, who has access long enough, with homicide. Borchert seeks to clear her, nosing in police captain Furrer's case. Anton Schneider repeatedly visited and paid a pharmaceutical company, which wasn't allowed human tests yet with a potential MS cure. Shortly after, Borchert's taxi deliberately tries to run him over.
