Paschke escapes the burglars once more and goes back to Ms. Kringel, who has counted the money and found that there is only half of the amount the bank manager claimed had been stolen.

Wolfgang runs to the house, but is arrested at the door. Meanwhile, there is a suspicious traffic jam in town and Frau Kringel seems to be very pleased with herself.

The real bank robbers are caught and now it is time to find the other half a million euros. Luckily, Paschke has a hunch where it has ended up, and is able to help the police catch the other thief in time and have a merry Christmas.
