Kiosk owner Freddy Eilrich is robbed of his wallet, holding rich daily earnings, assumes it's by a car widows-cleaning pair of young gypsy beggars he tries to apprehend, but jumping to escape, Jal trips over a car and needs hospitalization. His brat sister Samira rudely plays the obvious discrimination victim, but makes herself prime suspect my sneaking out of hospital, where nurse Frauke saw her counting a packet of cash, after hiding the wallet, and Eilrich's library card is found in their backpack. Mattes, grumpy as he had to sleep on a precinct table due to his flooded home, is eager to jail Samira, risking deportation to Romania, yet keeps on open mind, unlike the women who blindly sympathize with gypsies, insisting they be called Roma. A dozen of them lives in a derelict home rented below legal standards by the senile owner's son Georg Preuß. Mattes reconsiders the series of street robberies the siblings are suspected of, finds and tests an alternative suspect.
