This much can be revealed: In contrast to his ex-colleague Bönisch (Anna Schudt), Inspector Pawlak (Rick Okon) survives the “crime scene” this Sunday (February 18th). The farewell episode “Cash” is a solid crime thriller with a strong newcomer in Dortmund.
The boy needs to get some fresh air. Get out of the area and into life. Get a good night’s sleep, eat something healthy and have fun. For all those who accompanied the pale-faced Inspector Jan Pawlak (Rick Okon) with these thoughts through the past six “Tatort” years, the Dortmund crime thriller “Cash” offered a happy ending.
In the farewell scene, a delicate smile flashes across the crisis-ridden investigator’s face, who ultimately takes custody into his own hands. Screenwriter Jürgen Werner came up with a lot of ideas for Okon’s final case. “Cash”, actually a conventional crime thriller about sports betting and money laundering, uses the psychological states of the investigators to bring tension into the game. Inspector Faber (Jörg Hartmann) appears to be in an irritatingly good mood – perhaps because the hunt for his arch-rival Tarim Abakay (Adrian Can) makes him really fuzzy as an “old white truffle pig” or because his junkyard therapy with team boss Herzog (Stefanie Reinsperger), plagued by a mixture of self-doubt, anger and excessive demands, works so wonderfully. Colleague Pawlak alone gives the team a riddle that only solves itself after an hour with a surprising twist.
Director Sebastian Ko condenses the story into a crime drama that remains entertaining in terms of aesthetics and content and picks up speed in the last third, especially thanks to newcomer Ira Klasnic (played by Alessija Lause). A woman who has come to stay. Good this way!
