Desc: Eine schöne Bescherung: Doing a good deed just before Christmas Eve is a task for Hubert and Staller. They visit pensioner Hannelore Eissner, who has not paid her license fee for a year. So that the 85-year-old doesn't get into trouble, the district has collected the missing amount for the elderly woman. However, the elderly woman can no longer be happy about the donation from the police - she has been sitting mummified in her armchair and has been for some time. It quickly turns out that the Christmas decorations in the elderly woman's house are from last Christmas. For a year no one had noticed the old lady's death. pathologist dr. In view of the stately age of the dead, Fuchs initially assumes a natural death. So it's no problem that after the body was found, Staller spontaneously left for a pre-Christmas shopping holiday in Rome, which he had won in a Christmas raffle in the Revier. However, as soon as Staller is on the train, the sobering news comes: The elderly woman has a broken neck. Who put her in her chair in this condition? In addition, 400,000 euros, which the old lady had withdrawn from her account shortly before her death, have disappeared without a trace. A murder and robbery just before Christmas Eve, that doesn't fit Police Councilor Girwidz into the plan at all. But the trouble is only just beginning for Girwidz. When he is about to pick up his unloved mother-in-law from the train station, a Santa Claus zooms down a hill on his sleigh and only just misses his car. The mother-in-law has to wait, the police council takes the injured Santa Claus to the hospital. The wounded is Georg Obermeier, who was reported missing by his wife a year ago. When Hubert enters the hospital with Katharina Obermeier, her husband has disappeared again without a trace. The two remain helpless. After work, Hubert has another surprise waiting for him: 16-year-old Anna, who claims to be his daughter, is standing in front of his door. He can't bring himself to throw the young lady out and initially allows her to stay with him. This, of course, leads to some complications. DNA samples have now shown that it must have been Obermeier who broke into the dead pensioner's house a year ago and stole the 400,000 euros. But who broke the pensioner's neck? And why exactly one year later does Obermeier reappear disguised as Santa Claus, only to then immediately disappear again? The trail leads to the regulars' table of bank advisor Franz Hübner, postman Josef Brenner and butcher Michael Schartl.
