Derrick: Season 21

21x05 Episode 5

The episode is off to a very good start. That's an unusual scenario. But not unrealistic. Everybody feels for the old man in that Rudi Assauer scenario. Is that really legal though? Shouldn't he have a lawyer check the donation contract? Even the cruel family does seem genuinely concerned at times and unsure if their behavior was alright.

Good episode. It's a bit slow placed but the plot is kind of elaborated, the scenario isn't a dull repetition, it's a relevant topic in modern Western societies, the murderer isn't too obvious (btw: good shot in the middle of the night, in the dark, in the pouring rain), Derrick - sporting once again his classic leather trench coat from WW2 - is showing some good police work. The end is suspenseful and surprising. In the end, tables have turned and the old man ain't the victim anymore.

  • Yet another episode in which Willi is rocking a pair of glasses. Doesn't look good on him.
  • Quote of the day: "Von seiner Denkweise her ist er ein Mörder.
  • That blinking map in minute 52 in the precinct. What is that thing? Why? WTF?
