Henning and Harry discover that Potowski did in fact steal the letters, then find him in grave danger. Dirk reaches a decision about Kutte, and Miriam realizes that trusting her father with her newborn was a very bad decision.

Marion tries to talk to Johannes, but he's too preoccupied with reuniting Sascha's parents – and she's getting the wrong idea about his relationship with Sascha's mom. Sascha's father has gotten some rest and is ready to help out in the pet shop, which is good because there's a Christmas sale and the store is an absolute zoo!

Miriam's mother confronts her about the baby and refuses to accept her decision to keep it, eventually kicking her out. Meanwhile, Harry begins to suspect that the building manager has something to hide...

The team desperately searches for the young mother and her baby, who is in need of medical attention. Dirk is torn as to whether he should adopt Kutte, because he isn't sure he can afford it.

Johannes and Konstantin try to find Sascha's father. Then Sascha's mother comes to visit Johannes to compare notes – and accidentally rings Marion's bell.

While Lothar, Dirk, and Nicki contemplate life and death at the station, Miriam's baby disappears from the hospital and is known to be in grave danger. Meanwhile, Harry and Henning try to get to the bottom of the mail theft case that has caused a dispute between two neighbors.

All is lost for Johannes: He's unable to convince Marion that he didn't walk out on her, and even Sascha won't speak to him anymore. Johannes takes it upon himself to find the boy's father.

Miriam's mother finds out that Miriam skipped school and locks her in her bedroom. Meanwhile, Henning and Harry investigate a fight between neighbors, and Dirk deals with Kutte.
