As nobody is allowed to know about the meeting between Aebi and Fröhlich, the body has to disappear.

Alles Uf Chrankeschii
Chief physician Leo Leu is under a lot of pressure. In a few minutes, he is supposed to give an important speech at a neurology conference. If he messes it up, he can kiss his ambitions of becoming clinic director goodbye. But he keeps getting interrupted. A Christmas party needs to be prepared, rehearsals for a nativity play are coming up, and a colleague is pestering him: Doctor Leu should be so kind as to play Saint Nicholas. In the midst of this chaos, former nurse Rita Kuster bursts in and confronts her ex-boss Leu with his sensual past. Leu reacts as quickly as he does clumsily: he lets assistant doctor Blättler in on the secret, who is supposed to take the blame for him. But an overexcited teenager, a gruff head nurse, a curious police officer, and a shot of Valium throw a wrench in Leu and Blättler's plans.

Heini Schoch becomes a millionaire on his birthday of all days. He mistakes his briefcase for a completely identical item. With one tiny difference: the other suitcase is stuffed with bundles of money. This money can only come from a scam, Heini concludes in a flash, nobody carries that much cash around with them. So there is very little chance that the police will be called. Heini tells his confused wife Hedy to pack her bags. They are to take the next plane out of the country so that the crooks don't find out about them. But Heini has rejoiced too soon: suddenly the police knock on the door and ask lots of "stupid" questions. Luckily, Heini's loyal friend Viktor is there to help - albeit very reluctantly. In order to distract the police, the two of them build a huge house of lies. Eventually it all comes crashing down.

His dread deepens when he finds a fresh corpse in the living-room closet and wonders if he or the visiting vicar might be next.
Zwei für Eis
If you don't take the truth too seriously, you seem to find many things easier. Be it in your professional or private life. Rudolf Langenegger is a politician and husband and a prime example of both genres. The inventive National Councillor on the wrong track is only surpassed by his wife Sylvia. And so it happens that she meets up with her "one afternoon stand" at the same time in the same hotel as her husband with his mistress. As the unfaithful halves of the couple want to enjoy themselves door to door, i.e. suite to suite, it doesn't take long for events to unfold that send everyone involved into the dead end of their excuses at breakneck speed.
