- The two detectives find a shot couple. The woman's son is suddenly at a hospital. An old family tragedy seems to be the reason for this case.
- In a single-family home in Munich, detectives Batic and Leitmayr find the body of Michaela Danzer and Daniel Ruppert, who was critically shot. The dead woman's six-year-old son disappeared and was found completely disturbed in front of a hospital on the night of the crime. The boy is apparently an important witness, but he doesn't say a word. Did he see the perpetrator? Before the inspectors receive an answer to this question, Quirin disappears from the clinic.

- In a single-family home in Munich, detectives Batic and Leitmayr find the body of Michaela Danzer and Daniel Ruppert, who was critically shot. The dead woman's six-year-old son disappeared and was found completely disturbed in front of a hospital on the night of the crime. The boy is apparently an important witness, but he doesn't say a word. Did he see the perpetrator? Before the inspectors receive an answer to this question, Quirin disappears from the clinic. Suspicion of having kidnapped him initially falls on his biological father.
The trail leads to a family drama During emergency surgery on the surviving victim, Daniel Ruppert, the doctors discovered the scar from an old gunshot wound. The scar leads Batic and Leitmayr on the trail of a crime to which almost an entire family fell victim in Augsburg 15 years ago. What happened there seems to have been tragically repeated today. There was one survivor at the time: Ella, Daniel Ruppert's seven-year-old daughter. The fact that the perpetrator from back then is the victim of today gives Batic and Leitmayr a lot of headaches, especially since Ella's trail is lost in nothingness a few years after the tragedy in Augsburg. Did she take revenge on her father 15 years later? Or is the crime an act of jealousy on the part of the dead woman's husband, who is fighting for custody of Quirin?
Revenge on your father? The search for Ella leads the investigators to the Munich Zoo, where she works as a zookeeper for the elephants. It looks like Ella (who now calls herself Emma) has the boy with her, but she has disappeared from the work container where she was apparently hiding with him. The trainer Lissy, who Ella knows from her self-defense courses, doesn't help the investigators either. What does the young woman, still struggling with the trauma of her childhood, plan to do with Quirin? Case analyst Christine Lerch fears that when Ella is withdrawn from pills, she will slide further and further back into her old trauma and will no longer be able to distinguish between today and yesterday. What danger threatens the boy?
When Batic and Leitmayr finally find out where the two of them are through Lissy, all they see is an empty rowing boat on the lake. Quirin's stuffed elephant bobs in the water on the jetty. Did Ella pursue revenge after her father survived? Or is she not the perpetrator in the end? Who shot? Where does the blame lie? And can Ella and Quirin's lives be saved?
