CSCS4: Notruf 110, the final curtain

I CANT BELIEVE I AM GOING THROUGH THIS PAIN AGAIN!

But, as I made the descision to stop these challenges as the making is… well, I am exhausted from it.
Still, Notruf 110 became very popular here and many people enjoyed it, so, like a good series (and many other things propably too), it has to have a start and an end.

For that reason, I will produce a few selected episodes, but not a whole season, but distributed in the time from 1993 to 2008, when the show was running, to give an impression how everything changed over the years.

This means, that there is not much of a judging process and a look at engineering. The better the car is visually and in engineering, the more likely it will appear in a prominent role, but as always I will include everything that has been sent to me at least once.

Pilot movie, 1993, submissions close 15.09.2024

Kriminalhauptkommissar Rainer Sordel is transferred to the highway patrol, as a series of car thefts suddenly turned into a murder.

  • surprise me with 2008 cars

I have done all this for you all, so why don´t you tell me how you want it to end? I will pick the best proposals and will make the plot out of that!

RULES

  • must pass emission rules of the year it´s made in for Hetvesia
  • Genral realism is preferred, in design and performance for the year it´s intended
  • Don´t make it too fancy. An S-Class as car of an inspector is absurd, so is a Smart. For traffic cars, you are more free there.
  • Interiors at with a few basic fixtures, since they need to look good on screen. No need to pull off some stunning work that made you spending hours. But if a good interior is there, the car will be used for interior shots.
  • Techpool, fuel, etc… not really considered as its mostly about the design and realism this time. Nobody “watching” CSCS really wants the judging in depth, but see the cars crashing in photoscenes.
  • please look at the license plates, 1993-1998 ones should have the old design showed on the blue car, 2002-2008 ones the one on the silver car. I can provide examples and tutorials.

Discussion phase until August 01, 2024.

Lack of traction + Galant VR4 so nothing to do but pray when losing it, is how I understood the situation. :roll_eyes:

Finally this post will open submissions.

First, a hint for the plates:
1993-1997 cars will most likely use the old design:
The Hetvesia plate size but with the background being white, and the text in the format B (or any other town you like) then a minus and then up to two letters and four numbers, like B-AA1111.

The font is a mod font called “Dongle”, represents the german DIN font very well. The round patches are the tax seal and the MOT seal.

For the episodes from 1998 to 2008, cars will propably have the new design.
This is a bit tricky but not that complicated if you know how.

So, you take a white patch and cover the hetvesia plate except for the blue part. Then you use the Oxanium font (like I did at first) or the real german one which also appeared in a mod, and I wasnt aware of it so both forms exist.

since the production of the episodes takes a lot of time, its not making sense to have an identical deadline for all… so please look which episode you are interessed, a deadline is individually set there.

UPDATE
@here

I made the (for me) catastrophic descision that I want to produce an episode from every season…
seasons 3, 6, 7 and 11 are already covered - the rest isn´t…

I also updated the OP since the plots and cars I`d like to get are now extended. For the final episode, @AndiD made a proposal that I accepted.

A bit more than two weeks left for the first bunch

So far I only got cars from @AndiD and @Angelustyle.
@Knugcab made me a special vehicle.

@mikonp7 can you do a Bofrost (in Notruf: Happy Frost) van?

@S_U_C_C_U_L_E_N_T are you able to provide a remastered Baumhauer for the season 2? In Season 3, it was mentioned that Rainer had such a car in dark blue in season 2.

@the-chowi a Billancourt Elysee would be fitting for the pilot movie (your CSR161 car).The same could be said for the Knightwick K8 by @mart1n2005, in case a basic interior (seats, dash, steering wheel) could be fitted, these cars would look a bit weird in a prominent role with their windows blacked out.

So far, I am waiting for your cars to trash, the more, the better.
Meanwhile, I prepared the season 1 cars for Rainer (B-AE) and Frank (B-ES, later, B-DW).


The very first car of Notruf 110, Rainers ride in the pilot, will not be a car from me since I do this for you, so I won´t take away that prominent role from the participants.

I’m not about for the weekend but I still have the Knightwick as it was so I could stick a basic interior in for speed next week. Any particular engine or trim that would be needed?

It´s about stealing luxury rides (so my CSR161 car also has a cameo), so a higher spec is definitely making sense.

Sure, I can tweak it a bit, make an interior and send it over the weekend.

Can See what i can do after CSR

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT

I am already working on the vehicles for the pilot, but still I have no entry for Rainers car and I think the activity is quite low, so I now have set deadlines per episode individually to give you more time to cook something for the challenge without delaying it, since episode production is a pain and takes weeks.

Here is a little preview at the FFF studios, 1993, they seem to prepare some vehicles for a movie…

@S_U_C_C_U_L_E_N_T space for your Baumhauer is still reserved.

@shibusu same goes for Saberins for Klaus

@Mikonp7 and @Knugcab provide a Happy Frost van

@Knugcab also provides the golf cart

THE PILOT EPISODE

Trigger Warning: This is supposed to be an accurate 90s cop show, including swearing, political incorrectness (to a certain degree, of course) and the violence seen in these things. Please make sure this is suitable for you before reading.

He, Olaf! This is a brand new red Cavaliere Nobile Arco, damn the first I have ever seen in reality.

It even has cream leather like on the wishlist and the driver is alone. I will try to keep up, thankfully we have a speed limit here!



All right, Richard, nobody is watching. Drive off, I will get in it. I have my computer here. Damn, these modern locking systems are really a joy to exploit, one button, and everything is open.


HEY! WHAT ARE YOU DOING THERE? THAT IS THE CAR OF MY BUSINESS PARTNER! STOP!




The businessman chases the young car thief in his Primus Imperator, and the guy, as we know his name is Olaf, becomes nervous. Then, he discovers the car phone in “his” fancy Cavaliere.

BOSS? I HAVE A PROBLEM!

What?

Someone has spotted me, and he chases me in a Primus Imperator. I can´t shake that thing off, he drives too damn good.

Take the country road to Werlitz, directly to our headquarters.

Really? Have you really thought about that, are you sure?

SHUT UP AND DRIVE! I will handle the situation.



The Cavaliere drives into the warehouse, closely followed by the Primus, but the mastermind of the criminal organization waits there with a gun, shoots the driver of the Imperator, who then loses control and crashes, ending the chase with a huge bang. The boss is catapulted through the air, but lands more or less safely on his EMW oldtimer.




Some days later, in a police office in Berlau:

Rainer! Have you been drinking again? It smells like beer!

With my payroll, its definitely not champagner, boss.

STOP! Alcohol on duty, assault against suspects, disobeying of orders, Rainer, I can no longer stand back you if you don´t follow at least the basic rules in this department. And so, I have something for you. The highway patrol has demanded assistance from the Berlau City district, they want an investigator.

So what?

After many years out there in the slums you need a change, Rainer. I hope some fresh air out there on the highways will stop your idiotic habits. You are one of the best, but I can no longer guarantee you that you keep your job. A transfer for a case is the best for all of us. A businessman has been murdered after chasing a car thief. Since you are in the homicide unit, you are qualified.

No! I have five cases on my desk!

As your boss, I can tell you that you have ONE on your desk. This one! Report immediately at the department and get the car thieves. I can´t even tell how many cars they have stolen, because it changes every day. You are needed there.

The next day, the blue Globus of Richard enters a parking lot.

A Billancourt Elysee, grey, it has to be somewhere here.

Damn, another brand new model, propably the first in Berlau. THERE! Oh, what a futuristic shape. Now that you drove the Cavaliere last time, let me drive this, come on.

Richard, you have a pregnant girlfriend, you want the money, not the thrill.

But… that car!

All right, here nobody will spot us unless last time, I think it´s safe, I will take over your car and you will have fun with that thing.


But Richard made a mistake, stuck behind a senior driver, he makes a dangerous overtake in a corner, almost causing a terrible pileup - and that directly in front of Kriminaloberrat Dietrich Boehme, head of the Berlau police, who makes use of the police radio in his vehicle.








Hello? This is KOR Boehme! I just withnessed an accident caused by a reckless driver in a grey liftback, registration Berlau-GL 6352. I want that dumbass arrested!

Not soon after on the A-10:

Helmut, that is him! The boss himself ordered the arrest, we are already waiting too long for a promotion, DRIVE!

Ok, Rudi, but our car is no match for that guy. Let´s hope traffic slows him down.


Meanwhile, an old Mara gives up after more than two decades of service…



HELMUT, LOOK! HE IS STUCK BEHIND THE TRUCKS!

I usually hate these elephant races, but it´s useful now. Haha, now we will get you!




But Richard uses the first chance to get past, with the cops following him - and both cars face a crash now, as the hard shoulder is blocked by the Mara. While the Billancourt speeds up, the patrol car drivers know they can´t make it and brake as hard as possible.






The patrol car slams into the Mara, and starts a chain reaction including the following traffic.










Rainer Sordel is present when the whole mess is cleaned up, and he is very disappointed to not have any clue how to stop the thefts.


In the evening, Richard talks to his fellow student Frank.

Eh, Frank… can I ask you a favor?

Sure, what is it?

I need a ride tomorrow, I have an own car, but I would like to drink something there later, and Olaf doesn´t have time, he has an exam.

Yeah, no problem, just tell me when and where I should drop you off.

The next day, Rainer makes a food stop and notices a blue Saberin stopping next to a new Knightwick, with a long-haired guy exiting the Saberin and sneaking around the luxury car. He immediately realizes that this is his chance, and follows the Saberin, while alarming the others to look for the Knightwick.



In the mirror, Rainer sees how the Knightwick is opened with some kind of hacking device, and then decides to stop the Saberin by squeezing it off the road. The Knightwick is chased by a patrol car.



Damn, WHO ARE YOU AND WHAT THE HELL HAVE YOU DONE?

I am the law. I am the plumber presenting you the invoice. I am chief inspector Rainer Sordel, and you are arrested!

FOR WHAT?

Car theft. Also assisting is forbidden, you dumbass. HANDS ON THE BACK!

WHAT? I WAS GIVING MY BUDDY A RIDE! Not more and not less!

Sure, and my grandma is riding a motorcycle in a barn, yes…Get in my car!

Meanwhile, the Knightwick escapes with high speed through Berlau, causing a crash that also takes out the following police car.









When handing over the car, the boss was not too pleased about the ruined front bumper, and makes plans how to get rid of the young men as soon as they might be caugt.

He then discusses also with Olaf, who drove to the warehouse after his exam, that any word to the police will be lethal.

Without the arrest of the driver, Rainer knows that he has no possibility to arrest Frank instead, as what he had told might be the truth.

So, you had no clue that your friend is stealing cars? WHO IS IT?

You can´t force me to tell his name.

You will be surprised what I can!

Is that a threat, inspector?

CHIEF INSPECTOR! But no, not yet. But listen, a man died because he followed them, and in accidents people are injured every day. DO YOU WANT THIS? I can tell you what I want: The boss. I don´t want the small fishes like him, I want those that killed a 46 year old businessman from Zeilwies, because I doubt that your buddy is the killer.

Fine, if you promise to have a good word for him at the trial…

Yeah. Believe me, they will sooner or later want to get rid of him. Come on!

Richard Winkler. His best friend is Olaf Köhler. I guess he is his partner, because he asked me to drive him because Olaf can´t… I know his usual bar, I will try to talk with him, because I am quite sure he doesn´t talk to cops.

Hm, fine for me. But I will give you company, I wait in the car, and I will listen over radio.

You won´t be able to use this for a trial, since you didn´t inform him about his rights and the whole thing is illegal anyway.

Smart kid, eh? ONCE AGAIN FOR YOU: I DON´T WANT HIM, I WANT THE BOSS! I don´t care if the proof against Olaf is valid or not, but I need the information. I will pick you up at 9 PM at your adress.

At 21:30, Rainer turns into the Nockturngasse.

Uh, what a shady area. This is where the scum of Berlau piles up. Assassins, pimps, addicts, dealers, …

…and you?

Shut up! I will park here, it´s not far away from the bar, but nobody can see me here and that you exit my car. Good luck, here is the CB radio, turn it on so that I can hear!

Frank! Look, I need your advice. You have a mobile phone, right?

Yeah…

Rich parents, that´s what we all want, hm? So, I will buy myself one, too, do you have any advice for me?

In that moment, a drunk man ran into Frank, which caused the walkie-talkie to drop. Olaf immediately realized that the Police had a word with him and that they use Frank to get to him, and he runs away, followed by Frank

LISTEN FIRST! NOBODY WANTS TO ARREST YOU NOW! WAIT!


Rainer meanwhile uses his car to block the way for Olaf, who made it to an unoccupied taxi.



But when Frank arrived, the Taxi just drives off.

Inspector, he is gone in a taxi, a Primus, couldn´t see the number.

I bet he isn´t. This trick is older than my grandma. Go on searching!

You were right! He stops another taxi, Siegfriedstraße! Can´t tell the model.

ALMOST THERE! Hurry up and get in as soon as I show up!

Of course Olaf notices that Rainer and Frank are after him… he desperately tries to figure out a trick, and then pulls his gun against the taxi driver.


DONT`T STOP! DAMN!

Just…take the money, but don´t kill me.

I dont want to kill you, and I don´t want you hard earned money. You just need to do me a favour…


So, you use your taxi radio and tell everyone that someone tries to rob you. The guy drives a grey… eh… Eroberung ES250, registration Berlau-EW 315. You want your buddys to stop him and beat him up.

What?

DO IT! I CAN USE THE GUN, IF YOU WANT! You drive to the intersection Wilhelmallee and Luremburger Straße, they should stop him there.

Yes, yes…I will do as ordered.

Only minutes after, three taxis cut off Rainer, and the drivers stepped aggressively to him. With his gun and his badge he could avoid getting beaten up, but Olaf was gone…



The next day, Rainer interrogates Richard, but without success… on the way back, Richard is followed, and it is his boss, pulling a gun and shooting a tire in a fast corner, so Richard spins and unfortunately crashes into oncoming traffic… and being dead on impact.







The next day, Rainer drives to the university, but Olaf is not there. Instead, he spots Frank.

I am sorry about the loss. Maybe… I shouldn´t have arrested Richard, and then letting him go free. He was dead the moment he walked out.

Tell that his girlfriend and the unborn child, inspector.

I will make sure they get offered every help they need. Now I need to find Olaf before he is dead, too.

Inspector, there he is. He just arrived at the campus, bringing back the books to the library.

All right, I will follow him.

I am going with you.

NO WAY!

No, inspector, he is my fellow student and I want to make sure you don´t sentence him to death as well!

Olaf drove to a Zephorus - and stole it.


DAMN! Why is he so dumb? It was obvious that I will follow him if he goes to university, and then directly stealing a car? I thought you law students were smarter!

Inspector! Focus on the road!



Damn! That Zephorus is too fast. OH! HE LOSES IT!









Are… you ok?

ARE YOU FUCKING CRAZY, INSPECTOR? DO YOU HAVE TO KILL EVERYONE INTERACTING WITH YOU?

Suddenly, a silver Nordwagen approached, opening fire on Rainers car.

Damn! Now I know why he made it so easy for me to get him! That was a fucking trap! HEAD DOWN!


Inspector, you have turned into a dead end!

I know, that was my intention.

Are you crazy? You WON´T…

I WILL! BRACE FOR IMPACT!





BEURK! THIS STINKS!

Well, ice cream trucks were not available to land in, so I had to go for the… BAAAAH! Fish truck.

I HATE FISH!

Yeah, not the best smell, let´s get out of here. NO! Not the door. That´s too fishy outside, I have a better idea. LET´S GET DANGEROUS!

INSPECTOOOOOOR! NOOO!

Frank, I bet that the business man chasing your friends stepped into the same kind of trap.

Yes, but… they didn´t know that the guy would be following them, right?

Easy, he called his boss and they set it up spontaneously.

Inspector, I doubt that they stopped for a phonebox, as you heard on the walke-talkie, he WANTS to buy a phone, but hasn´t one yet.

DAMN! FRANK! You are a genius! HEADQUARTER, THIS IS SORDEL! GET ME THE PHONE NUMBER OF THE CAVALIERE DRIVER! PASS ME THROUGH IMMEDIATELY!

Yes, yes, it does have a car phone! That damn thing cost me 4000 Hetvesische Mark!

Do you have an invoice already from the provider? Was there a phone call that day?

No, I didn´t call anybody yet, because I was on time to meet up with Norbert…god bless him. So, I didn´t have to call.

ASK YOUR PROVIDER IF THERE WAS A CALL ON THAT DAY LATER! AND GIVE ME THE NUMBER!

Sure, inspector.

I will call the colleagues in Gronwald to write down your testimony then.

Oh, I do not live there. In Gronwald where the car is registrated is just my office, but I work in distribution and am on my way across the country anyway. My adress is Parkstraße 108 in Schweinshöhe, near Berlau.

All right, I am there in 10 minutes!


Here it is… quite far out, but I am curious if Mr. Goldstein has some interessing information for me. Frank, here are some bucks for a taxi and the keys for my apartment. You shouldn´t get directly home if the gangsters know your identity…which they surely do from Olaf. I will order an officer for protection, he will arrive before the taxi, so don´t worry.

Indeed - a number was called - the number of Max Glade, who owns an import-export business, mainly trading with Archana - and it was not difficullt for Rainer to get an arrest warrant still in the same night.

Without sleep but 12 officers, Rainer blocked the warehouse, but Max Glade tries to escape with his EMW. A chase takes place, and Rainer manages to spin the classic sports car, but it then skidded into some old forgotten chemicals that seem to be explosive…




A few weeks later

So, you passed, Frank?

Yes! Let´s see if I recieve good offers from law firms, inspector. Why are you here, by the way?

In first place to congratulate you to this outstanding archievement! And… to ask you if you want to trade a desk chair against the driver seat of a fast car.

Eh, what?

Kriminaloberrat Boehme, the headmaster of Berlaus police, thinks that the highway patrol needs criminal investigators permanently, and Berlau, Karlstadt and Zeilwies recieve two detectives. Well, I was offered the post in Berlau, and I accepted. But, I have to pick a partner now.

And why you didn´t?

Boehme showed me the files of good cops, but … I think that you would be a great cop. So, my offer is, six months paid training on the job, then you will become a cop in the rank of inspector. Mr. Boehme had to…bend… the one or other regulation, but… this is my offer. Think about it, and call me when you have made your descision.

Oh, yes, that is very surprising and unexpected, inspector.

Call me Rainer.

A good read indeed. I hope this good pilot episode will spawn some interest in providing entries for the later episodes too.

Finally my EMW SRK 4000 “Pieck-Power” found some use, as I had never entered it into the MilleMonti it was build for. 4 Liter V16 only the best for the head of state.

Also funny to name the police guy Helmut, as it reminds me of the beast movies of my youth.

Pieck Power is a such a great pun - but I suspect not everyone will get it…

The license plate I made for the EMW is another insider.

Rainer, I heard you are an expert for searching missed persons?

Yes, Rudi, it seems you have functional ears. But NO, I can not search your daughter, another unit is in charge for that. Plus, she is an adult…

RAINER! PLEASE!

Well… I can do a seperate patrol route from Frank, so that we cover more places to check on our routine patrol. I don`t like his aftershave and weird music anyway.

A few hours later, Frank was chasing two young guys having a race.


MAMBA 12-3 FOR MAMBA! REQUESTING ASSISTANCE ON A2 EASTBOUND!

12-2 to Mamba. Frank, what the hell are you doing there? I am currently in the opposite direction but not far away. I could block them from the entry at Friesdorf.

Rainer makes a dangerous turn, causing a crash.








12-2 TO MAMBA! Accident on the B44 causeway to the A2 at Friesdorf. Send an ambulance… and a driving instructor to these morons.

Not soon after, a dangerous overtake caused the driver of the Monarch to evade without looking in the mirrors, getting a slight hit from behind and pushing the Saarland into the guardrail.





The car takes off to an impressive altitute and crashes into a tree behind the barrier, Frank jumps over it by using his car as stairs, while Rainer arrives at the scene.




Frank pulled the driver out just in time before the car explodes, and Rainer found another body.

FRANK, I GOT THE WOMAN! But… she is dead, SHIT!

ww…what woman? Officers, I WAS ALONE IN THE CAR!



Later, in an apartment

Hm… nothing. The parents said that they were on a business trip, they have a bookstore and were on a trade fair until now.

Nothing seems like … something was not in order. Rainer, I think it´s the best to wait for the coroner´s results.

How does a sane and intelligent young woman get into a fucking Saarland Kaplan, Frank? What did she see in that moron? I mean, she surely didn´t enter the car for the car…

I will drive to the hospital for an interrogation.

And I check the restaurants from his home to the crash site. Maybe they have eaten somewhere and people have seen her alive with him.

NOW CONFESS!

FUCK, I DON´T EVEN KNOW HER!

Oh, a Kaplan driver not knowing a girl with good high school grades? I would usually believe that. But, SHE FELL OUT OF YOUR TRUNK! You wanted her, you didn´t get her, you took what you wanted!

I want to call my lawyer immediately! I don´t need to talk to you!

Crap, a Kaplan driver trying to be smart? Can you dial numbers yourself or should I call a nurse?

So, a trucker who was a bit too ambitious with flirting?

Yes officer. I mean, he didn´t kidnap someone or such, but he was really creepy.

Company and registration please. I will take this very serious.

Later, they got the truck.

So, the Kaplan driver is innocent, Frank?

Yes. Silke Karmann has almost no injuries. She can not have been involved in that accident, it is impossible that she was in that car.

Any traces?

The rain ruined it all.

Congratulations, and now we will have even bigger problems.

What do you mean?

Whenever a crime happens on the highway, who do we arrest first? A truck driver. They already hate us by now like the tax agency… nah, I guess its impossible to hate us even more, Frank, signals! There he is, let´s stop him.




The interrogation reveals that Ernst Zacher has a perfect alibi.

The next morning, Rainer and Frank are called to a highwayside lake - another murder has taken place, this time it´s Luisa Winter, 23, student of physics.

Rainer, now it´s a serial killer. And since it did not rain like shit… he dumped her in the lake to ruin all evidence. We need a profiler.

Oh, I can start. That guy is smart, so we can exclude Kaplan drivers from our suspect list.

Ha, ha, very funny… NOT! I will call Boehme to get us a profiler.

Don´t embarrass yourself. A real cop doesn´t need such psycho-blah-blah. Let´s drive to her apartment and not waste time.

Later, in the apartment:

Again… nothing! The boyfriend is fine, no secret lover, no stalker, no dirty secrets as it seems… HEY RAINER! DONT TELL ME YOU EAT HER PIZZA!!!

Eh, why not. The Turbo Frost frozen pizza is really good, and I am fucking hungry. And, I am very sure that Luisa doesn´t feel like eating it anymore. There are multiple in the freezer, you want one, too, Frank?

I better don´t say what I think… except that I really lost appetite now.

Kriminaloberrat Dietrich Boehme called in Petra Liehr, a psychologist and profiler, and Kriminalkommissar Frank Batimus tries to get helpful input.

Correct, Mr. Batimus… the whole thing is not spontaneous, instead, it seems well-planned. I also doubt that a truck driver did this. Most serial killers are highly intelligent anyway and work in different professions.

So, truck drivers are too dumb to be serial killers?

THIS IS NOT WHAT I SAID.

Hm. Intelligent? Well, it can not be a teacher. One was at high school, the other at university.

Intelligence, yes. But teacher would be a too social profession. The statistics prove that a serial killer with a similar pattern is more like… a surgeon for example, a person with a lot of power and social rank. A dentist for example, has less power by… not really making his work decide between death and life.

Any more to say from the information I provided?

He seems to know the area well, inspector. His profession might include driving though Berlau and it´s suburbs.

So, a sales representative then? Maybe for a highly specialized product?

Yes, inspector, this would be absolutely fitting.

Early in the next morning, Rudi and Helmut are on their patrol route, being called to a fender bender on the A10. Rudi did not sleep well, being worried about his 18 year old daughter still being missed, and falls asleep at the wheel. Helmut in the passenger seat has no success avoiding the guardrail.



Rudi is now again awake, and can not catch the skidding car, but warns the people in front of him by using the horn and the sirens, they escape just in time to not being hit in the following crash.





Rainer and Frank arrive at the scene and drive Rudi home - it is the best as long as he can´t get any sleep, he should not be on duty. While Frank has another meeting with Petra Liehr, Rainer stays for some meal as he is hungry.

Thanks, Rainer… yes, it´s best to stay away from the job as long as I am so distracted.

Yes, better stay away from Boehme. He is seriously pissed.

I guess that was it for my career, first, last year, and now, this…

What was last year, Rudi?

I stopped a car for a routine patrol… the woman driving it had weed in it, and became so nervous that she mixed up gas and brake… I thought she would run me over, so I fired a bullet, and that was sadly lethal. Her parents had a law office but were not able to sue me, as this was an act of defense, but of course, I could have reacted better…

Well, it was not that you had a lot of time to react. Very unfortunate, but I can see why you were not convicted. Anyway, what to eat?

As single father working in shifts… well… my cooking is limited to thawing up. But the Turbo Frost Pizza is really excellent.

Oh, I know that too well except for the parenting part. Good that Tur… WAIT! TURBO FROST? FUCK! You have to eat alone, I NEED TO CHECK SOMETHING!

Rainer speeds to the apartment of family Karmann and runs to the refrigerator, rips it open and searches for Turbo Frost pizza - successfully.

Frank! I knew it! TURBO FROST PIZZA in the refrigerator of Silke Karmann. Just as in those of Luisa Winter and Jana Kasallek.

So, what? Do we arrest the Turbo Frost man now or what?

Yes! Get me an arrest warrant from Boehme! I am already on the way to the department.

The profiler said that the person is intelligent and in a profession with power. A Turbo Frost truck driver is the polar opposite.

FUCK YOUR PSYCHO BLAH-BLAH! I am the superior officer and I want that arrest warrant, NOW!

I can call Turbo Frost and let them check if all three adresses have the same delivery guy, and if this is the case, I will do a background check. Cool down, Rainer.

They arrest him soon after. Dr. Ulrich Weikert was formerly a very successful lawyer, but the loss of his daughter and losing the trial against POM Rudi Kasallek ended his marriage, and without his family, Dr. Weikert lost his job to alcoholism and has to work as Turbo Frost salesman now.

So, Dr. Weikert… guess what I found out? YOU DELIVER FOR TURBO FROST TO ALL THREE ADRESSES! And not just that. Polizeiobermeister Rudi Kasallek is the guy that shot your daughter by accident. YOU KIDNAPPED HIS DAUGHTER FOR REVENGE TO MAKE HIM GO THROUGH THE SAME LOSS!

No! I HAVE ALIBIS FOR BOTH OTHER CRIMES! I AM NOT THE GUY YOU ARE LOOKING FOR!

Even then, you could be a copycat killer.

OH NO, INSPECTOR, I CAN´T! JANA KASALLEK DISAPPEARED BEFORE THE OTHERS! HOW CAN I BE A COPYCAT KILLER THEN?

YOU WOULD BE IN THE CELL ALREADY IF I KNEW, YOU BASTARD!

INSPECTOR, AS A FORMERLY VERY SUCCESSFUL LAWYER I CAN GIVE YOU THE ADVICE TO LET ME FREE BEFORE I REPORT YOU FOR DEPRIVATION OF FREEDOM!

The next day, Rainer and Frank eat Pizza for lunch.

I don´t feel like Pizza, Frank…

It´s not the one from Turbo Frost, so don´t exaggerate.

It is him! BUT HOW DID HE DO IT? Wherever he helds Jana hostage, it´s not his truck and not his home, we searched in both… without any result. By the way, the Turbo Frost Pizza is really not much worse than this… the frosting keeps all the vitamines and aroma fresh, but if you don´t frost them correctly, the freezer burn…

HOLY SHIT!

AAAH! Frank! Don´t scare me. I thought you were smart enough to know that.

I DIDNT MEAN THAT! NOW I KNOW HOW HE DID IT! He killed both way earlier than the coroner determined because he kept the bodies fresh in his truck. Silkes parents were not there, Luisa lived alone in an anonymous high-rise and Rudi works overtime in shifts, so nobody could really say when exactly they disappeared. And to not make us wonder about the water when thawing up, he dumped them in the rain or into a lake. When starting to work for Turbo Frost, it was a very bad coincidence that he is also responsible for Rudi, and he recognized him and made a revenge plan, and this includes killing innocent people to cover it up and make himself unsuspicious with perfect alibis and random victims he doesn´t have a personal connection to. BINGO!

Frank, you are a fucking genius. But we need to hurry, TODAY IS THE ANNIVERSARY OF THE DEATH OF HIS DAUGHTER. He will kill Jana just now! MOVE IT!

Hello Rudi, this is Rainer. WHERE DID YOU SHOOT WEIKERTS DAUGHTER?

Rittmeisterstraße… do we really have to go through this again, I still feel guilt…

FRANK, DRIVE TO THE RITTMEISTERSTRASSE!

There he is! Crap, he escapes. Frank, faster!

I am not your student driver.



WATCH OUT!

AH, FUCK!

Frank barely avoids the crash that Dr. Weikert caused with his dangerous turn, but the relief wasn´t for long - Weikert drives to the highway, where his Sanju has no chance against the much faster Primus.




That was dumb, we can catch up here with ease.

Yes, but not stop him, Frank.

Sure? Let´s see!


FRANK! HE SQUEEZES US! SLOW DOWN!

I CAN GET PAST HIM!

NO YOU CAN´T! BRAKE!

AAAAAAAH! CRAP! The car is just four weeks old. Boehme will freak out.


But now a BetterDeals HPD Sport tries to overtake an old Mara, and … “Sport” was just a marketing gag fooling buyers, so… this takes a bit and holds up the Sanju of Dr. Weikert…


NOW THERE, THAT IS OUR CHANCE! Frank, get closer, I will go over there.

ARE YOU FUCKING STUPID?

Jana is possibly in there. Boehme will order a violent stop if Weikert continues to be a danger for everyone on the A10. GET AS CLOSE AS POSSIBLE!




Just in the moment when Rainer found grip at the handle, he noticed that the rear door is locked, but he can not get back onto the hood of Franks car - Weikert rams the BetterDeals which explodes, ejecting the driver, so that Frank has to slow down a lot in oder to not get involved.



Rainer is thrown foward, getting grip at the side door - which swings open, almost throwing Rainer off the vehicle at high speed. The BetterDeals driver lands in some tires.

Oh, Betteryear tires. Truly a better deal than my car…




Dr. Weiker takes the exit from the A10 and almost flips the truck, while Rainer tries to hold on for his life on the swinging side door. He manages to maneuver himself into the cooling box and getting the door shut, while Frank is still behind. Weikert then goes offroad and drives towards the subway rails, which are at ground level in this area. Franks car is not able to climb onto them, and the pursuit comes to an end…for now.





Thankfully, a fitting vehicle is parked exactly there, and the key is in the ignition. Frank takes the Jeep and resumes the pursuit, meanwhile, Rainer checks for his situation.

CRAP! All you had to do was following the damn train tracks, Frank!

cough cough I am so cold… Please, help me…

Jana! FINALLY! Sorry, it is so dark in here… I am Hauptkommissar Sordel, and I am here for your rescue!





Oh, engine noise! Jana, this is surely my partner! I will open the door and check… EH, FRANK! SHE IS IN HERE! GET US OUT!

Frank switches sides with a quite violent driving, but the offroad vehicle keeps going, as it is built for tough use… Rainer first helps Jana Kasallek out of the Sanju and helps her jumping onto the bed of the Jeep, then he himself follows.



Dr. Weikert notices it too late in the mirror, and when he tries to ram Frank, both Jana and Rainer were already safely on the bed of the vehicle and had grip. Realizing that he has lost, and nothing else to loose, Weikert floors his truck and steers directly into a pole, crashing with a lethal explosion.
