Der letzte Bulle — Season 2

In rural Essen-Schuir, Klaus Wollert is shot from a horse at close range while dressed in full Western attire. Mick and Andreas' investigations lead them to the "Ruhr River Ranch," a Wild West club in the middle of the Ruhr region. After Mick befriends the club's founder, Tobias Henf, ‘Chief' Jürgen Tamm soon comes under suspicion. His "squaw" had an affair with the murder victim. But Markus Wollert also benefits from the death of his brother Klaus...

This time, Mick and Andreas have to solve the murder of Frank Terhoven, a young stripper. Their first lead takes the investigators to Rene, an older colleague and friend of Frank's. Rene had an argument with Frank during a performance the night before. His motive could have been jealousy. The strip club's manager, Beate Kampmann, had taken away Rene's position as lead dancer and given it to Frank. Was he simply unwilling to accept this?

After the sausage-grilling competition at the "Südsee" campsite, there is no winner, but one dead person: groundskeeper Harry is found murdered in his office—with the competition's winner's trophy, of all things. Mick and Andreas investigate in one of the last refuges for dropouts. But even here, not everything is as it seems: Harry's grieving widow Rita has had a lover for some time, and he would do almost anything to make Rita free for him...

A murder case leads Mick into the world of modern treasure hunting. Moritz Weber, founder of a geocaching club in Essen, is found dead in the woods next to his "treasure," a small Tupperware container—mysterious coordinates on his arm, a tiny plastic toy figure in his esophagus. The trail obviously leads to the "Treasure Hunters" and their members. The investigators have no choice but to go treasure hunting themselves...

The body of Silke Hansen is found in a wooded area. She had been attending a weekend seminar run by couples coach Bernd Neumeister with her husband Erik and their 17-year-old son Rasmus. Mick is completely confused when he and Andreas suddenly encounter his therapist Tanja at Neumeister's villa: she is leading the seminar together with Neumeister and is blaming herself for perhaps having overlooked something crucial about the Hansen family...

The "Naked Tankers of Huttrop" are a group of motorists who are protesting against constantly rising gasoline prices by filling up their tanks naked. The protest is well received by the public, but less so by the oil companies.

Herbert Kupp is found dead in the church of the parish of St. Betram. During the investigation, Mick meets his old friend Bodo Romanski again after almost 20 years and is astonished: Bodo, formerly a petty criminal, is now the parish priest. However, the joy of their reunion is quickly dampened when Herbert's widow, Anneliese Kupp, draws the investigators' attention to a dispute between her husband and Bodo...

Tabloid journalist Ramona Landau is found murdered in the editorial office of the "Essener Abendkurier." There are a number of suspects, but there is no trace of the murder weapon. During the investigation, it turns out that the location where the body was found was apparently not the scene of the crime. In addition to the complicated case, Mick also has to deal with Tanja: she is relying on acquaintances from the internet in her search for a partner – too dangerous, Mick thinks.

Organic farmer Jacob Hoffmann is found dead in the cutting mechanism of a combine harvester. The only witness is the victim's girlfriend, Silke Reiss. However, she claims not to remember anything. Andreas doesn't believe her. On the contrary, he considers her a prime suspect. Mick feels completely differently: he likes Silke and feels reminded of his own story. But the fact is, there is something wrong with Silke—Mick will have to realize that at some point...

When kindergarten teacher Felix suddenly falls dead from his bike on his way home from work, Mick and Andreas know that something is wrong. They are convinced that it is murder when a high dose of painkillers is found in Felix's thermos flask.

Did Felix want to draw attention to this?
