Her feelings for the farmer Halfen, whom she has met in the meantime, do not make the situation any easier. Anna and her husband have become estranged, but the common concern for their son Michel, who is wanted by the police, brings them together again. The desperate boy seeks help from Zettler's son Gerhard, not realizing that his supposed friend has blamed him and now wants to get rid of the unwanted accomplice. Anna and Halfen, who are looking for Michel on the ladder to heaven, arrive too late. With the opening of the carnival season, Anna finds solace and distraction in the hustle and bustle of society. Life somehow goes on. Anna and her husband testify as witnesses in the tribunal trial, in which Zettler's dark past is to be dealt with. Adam blames the former local group leader for his admission to the concentration camp, but cannot provide the necessary evidence. Zettler denies all guilt and actually receives the "clean bill of health". Enraged by the acquittal, Adam wants to take the law into his own hands, but he is not a murderer, he cannot judge Zettler. However, the confrontation with Adam has an effect, because the greedy old Nazi has a lot to lose. He ruthlessly exploited the plight of persecuted Jews to take all their jewelry. He is said to have enabled them to escape, but no one he "helped" has ever been heard from again. Now he wants to emigrate to South America, but his prey is not enough for him. He also wants to quickly complete the sale of the district to the Belgians. To be on the safe side, he has had all the necessary papers transferred to his wife Hermine's name - but she is now making her own plans. She endured too much injustice at the side of her hot-tempered husband, and that should now be the end of it. When Hermione rebels for the first time in her life, Anna steps to her side. She protects Hermione from Zettler's outburst of violence, a success that encourages Anna. Together with her family, she is now concocting a ruse to put a stop to Zettler's craft once and for all.
