While the police choir sings "Silent Night, Holy Night" in the headquarters canteen, a dead baby is laid unobserved in front of the altar in the small church at the Old South Cemetery - with a request for burial. Batic (Miroslav Nemec) and Leitmayr (Udo Wachtveitl) are stunned in front of the child's corpse. dr Steinbrecher (Robert Joseph Bartl) discovers death by asphyxiation shortly after birth. On the same day, a young Romanian (Mathilde Bundschuh), who had just given birth and collapsed on the street, was admitted to a Munich clinic. But she disappeared, allegedly picked up by her husband (Florin Piersik jr.).
At about the same time, another young Romanian (Cosmina Stratan) appeared in a doctor's office with a newborn child, desperately asking for help and fleeing when the doctor called the police. How are the two women related? What happened? During their investigations, Batic and Leitmayr track down an organized beggar clan who have set up camp on the outskirts of Munich and are hoping for big business at Christmas.
