Heldt wonders why 'cheap' food and stakes out a delivery, so he can observe 15 year-old paperboy Adrian Schlosser, whose mother Nina 'manages' his even less caring stepfather's DJ-career, leaving Adrian to look -well- after kid brother Leon (eight). Heldt gets state attorney Ellen Bannenberg to take them in her home rather then call in child services during his investigation, to see if Adrian also dealt in luxury contraband.
