Major Bibi Fellner und ihr Kollege Moritz Eisner übernehmen die heiklen Mordermittlungen. Während Einsatzleiter Schuch die harte Räumung verteidigt, wächst in den sozialen Medien die Wut auf die Polizei. Ist ein Schlagstock die Ursache für den Tod des aktenkundigen Systemkritikers Volkmann? Als ein Anschlag auf die BK-Ermittlerin Meret Schande verübt wird, nimmt der unübersichtliche Fall noch dramatischere Formen an. Eine Spur führt zu einer militanten Untergrundgruppe, die "das System" stürzen möchte.
