Laurenz wants to take part in a free climbing competition, but he doesn't tell his parents because his mother thinks it's far too dangerous. He secretly earns money as a newspaper deliverer so that he can afford the climbing equipment. When Laurenz withdraws money from an ATM for his mother after his job, he doesn't notice that the two con artists Tiger and Lara are hiding nearby. The surfer couple use a hidden micro-camera and a card-reading device to obtain the account details of Laurenz's mother's debit card. A day later, Rika discovers that 500 euros have been overdrawn. She blames her son and punishes him by putting him under house arrest. He secretly leaves the house and decides to find the real thieves with the other pepper corns. Meanwhile, Lilly and Yeliz are pursuing a completely different mission. They want to stage a chance encounter with their parents in order to set them up with each other. But Roman and Hatice are helplessly avoiding each other, and when Roman ruins Hatice's blouse in a collision with the waiter, the 'Blind Date' operation fails for good.
