When new “Tatort” commissars make their debut, it must be great cinema actually. And if this debut yet to take place in Berlin, then the audience can expect a movie, so rough and unpredictable as the capital. Therefore, the RBB at the first “scene” with investigators Nina Rubin (Meret Becker) and Robert Karow (Mark Waschke) has omitted nothing: blood, executions, drugs, sex, relationship drama and a dark secret – all of which got the audience on Sunday night served in 90 minutes.
“The Mule” it came to drug smuggling on a grand scale – two girls are abused as drug couriers, one dies, the other is hiding with her brother in the empty airport hotel of the BER. Meanwhile, Karow and Rubin find first of all only a bloody crime scene without a body. Karow soon suspects that the case has something to do with the drug scene. Rubin, meanwhile, is busy snooping around in the past of her new colleagues. Whose former partner determination is in fact come mysteriously killed. Showdown then occurs in the BER airport hotel where the brutal criminals have also tracked the siblings.
The title “The Mule” is initially in cryptic, but first you might think because of mules. In the drug scene but you know better.
What exactly are mules?
There are as “mules” often referred to young women who carry in their intestines packaged intoxicants. Generally called drug smuggling in the body also Mule. The body packers swallow so-called seals, so small filled with 8 to 10 grams of cocaine packet. It condoms are often used as packaging material. As Commissioner Robert Karow also explained in the film, are often 80 or 100 pieces, so that the “mules” running around with quantities of around 800 grams of cocaine in the intestine. Determine can, however, the customs officers difficult. When the smugglers do not behave suspiciously, they usually remain undetected. A radiograph of the abdomen but would provide information.
Where is the danger?
In general, there is always some risk that a small packet tears, cocaine across the intestinal mucosa was added and is the body packers dies from a fatal overdose. The smugglers are therefore on the trip very carefully, they often eat anything and take medication on that inhibit intestinal activity for the period until the arrival at the destination. That makes it hard to the discarding. Dangerous for crushing and laxatives can be. While also puts the police in body packers laxative under medical supervision in. In no case may however be oil-based laxatives because they may damage the condom and can bring to crack. It is likely that the “crime scene” with Johanna Michels (Emma Bading) happens. The use of emetics is controversial – it is not clear whether these can also favor the tearing of the condom.
For Robert Karow, who has previously worked in the narcotics investigation, this case is of course a home game. Not only that, he is very familiar with organized crime in this area, he obviously still with old contacts in the scene.
How much is in the Berlin scene
In addition to Karow and Ruby stood above all the focus: the capital. Berlin was to play the “third major role” – the RBB had previously announced. So clichés are unpacked, every effort known as the scenes in Speepark Plänterwald and alluded Berlin Duration topics. Nina Rubin SM sex in the backyard of the night clubs in Cassiopeia Revaler road. The BER is not functioning airport is taken for a ride. And also a little jab in the direction misuse ban (“You rent the apartment as a holiday home? Is not now illegal?”) Should not be missed. In addition, there Nocturnal cityscapes Time Lapse, neglected children at Zoo Station and take a look at the waste treatment facility at Britz.
For the next episodes a scenes bingo offers. Our tip:. Berghain Tempelhof, and the restaurant at the TV Tower
What the Twitter users are saying
Also on Twitter was the question of how closely Berlin now actually on that “? Tatort “is off, much debated.
All agree it is not there.
More often read the question: A bloodied girl – Johanna Michels – runs through Berlin, but it seems not to remember or at least it keeps no one to help necessary. Is Berlin so mercilessly
That sometimes lie more than 100 tweets in three minutes to the “crime scene”, shows at least before a Rubin Karow and are not viewers do not care. Nevertheless, both come to is not equal good.
For the largest amusement provided in this “crime scene” probably the appearance of the BER. The’d probably also see so many in the next episode gladly again
