In the course of a quarrel Udo shoves his sister onto the bed several times, slaps her face — then embraces her. (During the scene he seeks out his revolver which will play a tragic role at the end of the story.) From time to time Udo discusses the question of the inheritance with their plump aunt (Margie), meanwhile a former Lesbian girlfriend (Veruschka) re-enters the girl's life and moves to their flat. In a telephone conversation Tabea tells Udo that she cannot endure waiting any longer, she in no more interested in the inheritance and has been overcome by an erotic longing for death. The man entering home shoots five bullets at Veruschka (this latter heaving sighs under the blanket) then realising his error he commits suicide. (...)
