Cheers! Raise your glasses at the Britannia shop in Cologne. The kidnapper and the victim embrace each other and sample the delicacies. They prepare ham and eggs, sausages, and Cornish pasties. Everything is washed down with champagne. Outside, the police are getting ready to storm the shop. However, operations leader Axel Stolpner wants to buy some time first. Meanwhile, a man dies in the university hospital after having run through the streets of the right bank district of Flittard, screaming in terror and completely naked.
