Plot summary
Bank robber Zeki Müller is released from prison and goes to collect the money from his last job, which a friend buried at a construction site. The site is now the gymnasium of the Goethe Gesamtschule, so Zeki applies for the vacant janitor's post; a mix-up puts him in front of a class as a substitute teacher instead. Elisabeth "Lisi" Schnabelstedt, a student teacher at the school she once attended, holds guardianship of her younger sister Laura and cannot keep her students in line. Class 10B, known for its pranks, is handed to Lisi, while Zeki takes over another class and starts digging in the school cellar at night.
