Last and BEST part of "Der Stille Gast" Trilogy

Klaus Borowski leads the Kiel Team in the legendary Tatort Series. His cases tend to deal with psychotic murderers. The "quiet guest" is easily the most bizarre specimen of mentally ill serial killers any Tatort Team ever had to investigate. "Kai" wrestles with the realization that he is evil, yet insists he's "not a bad person". Capable of compassion and kindness, he just can't help himself; he kills again and again and again.

Borowski's unique ability to view the world from the killer's perspective once again helps him track down his "old friend Kai" who escaped from the high security institution for the criminally insane. This, the third and final episode in the Trilogy has many dramatic highlights, culminating in a very satisfactory ending. -- Look for a delightful minor "Mary Poppins" character, a cleaning lady Borowski hired to return order to his messy apartment. This would be a wonderful new regular character to join the show!

I've been a Tatort fan since it all began back in 1970. Very few of them are truly worthy of a perfect 10 star rating. I dare say, this is one of those very few!
