Berg continues to look into her death, but he also fears for his family. A group of Hitler's brownshirts has been terrorizing his neighborhood, throwing rocks at the buildings, including the apartment building where Berg and his family live. He arrests one of the young hooligans, only to find out that the teenager was a nephew of his superior officer. The young man is allowed to go, all right, but not before his uncle hit him twice in the face, raising bruises on both cheeks. Berg is not convinced the young man will stop.

Volcker, Berg's superior, wants the Gross murder solved by arresting the husband and charging him with the killing. Berg is totally unconvinced that Anton Gross is involved. After all, Anna Gross was pregnant, but not by her husband.
