"Captain" Werner and his crew are amazed: A stroller with a baby inside is parked at the Berlin garbage collection depot. The foundling looks familiar to Werner, Ralle, and Tarik from an incident on their day trip: They had already seen little Lea at 16-year-old Marie Thieme's house. The single teenage mother lives with her 17-year-old sister Nele and their father Frank, who, however, is rarely home as a taxi driver. No one answers the door that evening when Werner and his boys knock on the door on their way home. The rescuers are determined not to call the police, as the garbage collectors already know that the Thieme family is under investigation by the Youth Welfare Office. Ralf and Tarik are forced to take little Lea in for the night. Meanwhile, Marie and Frank have noticed what Nele has been up to in their absence and are looking for Lea. Werner's plan to deliver them again the next day on the tour is thwarted by his boss Dorn, who issues a new morning order, and by Chief Dispatcher Gerald, who changes the day's route. While Marie desperately searches for her daughter, the three garbage collectors drive through the neighborhood with a baby on board. When the police get wind of this, things get dicey for the temporary fathers.
