- Hans Bronstein is about to finish secondary school and needs to decide what to do next with his life. He has a girlfriend, Martha Lepschitz, who is an actress and whose parents seems to accept him with even fewer reservations than they accept their own daughter. Martha's profession also provides a motif that comments on the cultural context of the film: as the Holocaust intrudes on Hans's life and his relationship with his father through the narrative, Martha finds acting jobs in the presumably quite conventional output of Holocaust films, in which Jews are consistently portrayed as victims, confined safely to the historical past. Hans has considerably more difficulty dealing with his Father, who is opinionated and authoritarian in regard to his son, and with his sister Elle, who is hospitalized in a mental institution. Her affliction leads her to attack people at random, in the apparent belief that they are about to do her harm.
- Julius Stern has achieved international renown as an astrophysicist. He takes care of quantum mechanical problems with his left hand, and his studies to improve the theory of relativity inspire respect even to his Berlin institute director Clemens Winkelmann. But like many geniuses, the good Julius is extremely absent-minded, i.e. only partially operational in everyday life. A fact that mildly amuses his children Paul and Lisa, known as "Sternchen", but drives his also working, overburdened wife Ulrike to despair. When the family moves into a new house, Ulrike's constant stress turns into an open crisis. While renovation work, a surprising promotion and even more surprising visits to relatives break in over the smart woman, Julius once again withdraws into the laboratory with his measuring devices, forgetting appointments and appointments. Until he leaves his daughter at the train station after a school trip and Ulrike bursts her collar: she kicks her husband in front of the door. The interventions of Julius' petty criminal brother Zacharias and Ulrike's mother do nothing to ease the situation. In the end, even the matter itself seems to be seized by general madness: in the Stern house, objects disappear only to reappear in the most impossible places. A real phenomenon that can only be explained as follows: Julius, without knowing it, discovered the principle of teleportation - "beam me up, Scotty!" What happens if you apply the physics of "Raumschiff Enterprise" to the everyday life of a four-person, double-income Berlin family? It can lead to some turbulence - This charming comedy by the experienced TV director Sabine Landgraeber is full of absurd ideas and potential for chaos, but can rely on their bridging team: Friedrich von Thun, Simone Thomalla, Ingo Naujoks, Charles Brauer and Ruth Maria Kubitschek always find the right switch in the end.
- An elegant lady on the outside, but in truth a cunning jewel thief: for Claire Vanderboldt, bourgeois: Klara Waldleitner, no coup is too complicated. The higher the security measures, the greater Claire's ambition to get to the object of her desire. After her recent series of burglaries in a luxury hotel in Lichtenstein, however, an old acquaintance thwarts her plans. Vinzenz Kröger, a former master thief who is now trying his hand at manufacturing industrial robots, steals from the thief and returns all the valuables to their owners. But although he saves Claire from being arrested by the police, she doesn't trust him and his declarations of love. He's cheated her too many times in the past. When Claire carries out a spectacular jewel robbery in Hamburg shortly afterwards, she has no idea that Vinzenz is once again on her heels. He involves her in a breakneck escape over the rooftops of the city - at the end of which the loot naturally becomes Vinzenz's possession. However, the elegant charmer is less successful in his middle-class profession. His company is on the brink of bankruptcy, the new robots don't work, and the deal that saved him with a large Chinese company is also in danger of collapsing. Thanks to his equally inconspicuous and witty assistant Martina Ahlers, however, Kröger discovers that his competitor Axel Tiedtke is behind the sabotage of his new industrial robots. Together with Claire and Martina, Vinzenz hatches a crazy plan to trick the unscrupulous Tiedtke.

In fact the production company tried to save their catastrophic tv-rates of this series by re-casting the two main parts by a much stronger and much more known acting force in the last four episodes but to no avail. It was rather unsuccessful and poorly produced altogether by a the so far known producer Otto Meissner.

- A classical who-dunnit-detective-story in an unusual setting: In the retirement-home for aging stage-artists "Ewige Rampe", an overly engaged doctor discovers what seems to be a murder by poison. The victim is the only inhabitant of the home who was not on stage, but a reporter of a gossip magazine. The two investigating police inspectors soon find out that the deceased lady blackmailed most of the inhabitants with little secrets she found out in her time as a reporter - nasty, but harmless things like a little shoplifting, alcoholism, a corrected date of birth, a success one never had... but are these little old secrets reason enough to kill someone? Or is there someone with a more important dark spot in the past? And what part does the attractive, but mysterious director of the house play, who cared for the founder of the "Ewige Rampe" in her old age? Has the caretaker, a plump man with a criminal background, a part in the murder? The film shows an eye-winking variety of aging stage-actors: the mundane old diva, the vain tenor, the melancolical comedian who always dreamed to be a tragic actor, the soubretta who would never admit her true age, the gay ballet-dancer, the opera-singer with a tragic story that made her loose her voice. All characters are hilariously comic, but touching and a little tragic at the same time. Finally, the cynical inspector and his young enthusiastic assistant solve the mystery in a surprising manner and peace comes back once more to the inhabitants of the idyllic place.
- The emancipated Mrs. Karin Börner inherits a small pension in Munich. She leaves her home in Berlin, her husband, and their 17-year-old daughter to look after the guests of "Pension Corona."
