Professor Dr. Herrmann Wolf, research chief of the Rosenheim Institute for pain, was skull-smashed in his office. Arrogant rival colleague professor Ernst Lindemeyer sought in vain to have the institute redirect itself his therapy section as a profit-orientated clinic. Hofer and Hansen check his alibi and claim, Wolf left his job to deputy Dr. Michael Betzhold. Wolf's separated wife Johanna Wolf remains his heir. Stockl must suddenly fill in for Marie Hofer to help Achtziger and the music academy coax over dinner rich, flirtatious prospective sponsor Alfred Rieder.
