The story, scripted by Monika Fäßler, is centred on the characters of Franny (Herfurth), a woman who is disorientated in both her private and her professional life, and who is subject to panic attacks, and Mel (Hannah Herzsprung), a single mother who has to provide for herself and her daughter, and has decided to do so by attempting a diamond theft. This is how they meet, as Mel takes Franny hostage, unaware that her fragile nerves will turn the situation into utter chaos. The circumstances are further complicated by the intervention of an attractive policeman that Franny knocks on the head (Frederick Lau, from Victoria [+lee también:
