Storyline

On a gloomy November afternoon, police sergeant Josef Kummer spots a suspicious car in the bushes behind the Taubenschlag restaurant, a popular suburban brothel. Kummer, who is searching for an escaped prisoner, concludes that the fugitive is hiding nearby. But the car belongs to the mayor (Ueli Beck), who is enjoying an afternoon with a pretty young lady while his wife assumes he is working in his office. In his ambition, Kummer threatens to expose the local politician's amorous escapade and provoke a scandal of the first order. When he then mistakenly arrests the popular representative, chaos ensues.
