Tatort S2005E31 - Palu - 18 - Rache-Engel

Vera Schneider, nationally known foundation chairwoman, formerly celebrated pianist, is honored for her commitment to the rehabilitation of young prisoners. A few hours later, the charity lady is dead - fell from the balcony. A robbery and murder, as evidenced by the traces left by a burglar in Schneider's apartment. Inspector Max Palu, colleague Stefan Deininger and the tried and tested part-time employee in the secretariat, Ms. Braun, are dealing with five suspects: Heinz Schneider, the industrialist, head of Schneider machine tools, who coldly wants to dump his wife because she is redesigning him gets in the way of his private life. Martin, the prodigal son who suddenly reappeared years later. Marion, the adoptive daughter who was severely traumatized after a car accident.
Eva-Maria Klein, Vera Schneider's office manager in the foundation, which leaves its mark in many suspicious places. And the only slightly resocialized petty crook Moshi, a protégé of Vera Schneider and childhood friend of Martin. Max Palu is under pressure because his new chief of police, Klausmann, is pushing for a quick solution. Above all, however, he wants Heinz Schneider, on whose investments 1,000 jobs depend, to be undamaged. However, this is becoming increasingly difficult as someone who knows more than the investigators feeds the media with details. Max Palu is also in a private crisis and is on the verge of separating from his partner Margit. Confronted with a disintegrating family in the Schneider murder case, he realizes how torn his own family ties are.
He has to make a decision, professionally and privately, in his last case as a "crime scene" commissioner in Saarbrücken.
