While Kai, now a loving husband and father, works with his uncle at a meat factory, Mirko derailed very early on. When Mirko, who has been imprisoned several times for criminal activities, gets out of jail, he demands the return of the money he had entrusted to Kai before his arrest. But Kai has already spent most of the money and now finds himself under immense pressure to find the missing funds.
