"Wer bringt denn bitte Leute um, die sowieso bald von selber sterben?" Der Suchanek hat schon immer ein Drogenproblem gehabt. Findet zumindest der Richter und brummt ihm Sozialstunden im Altersheim auf. Einen ganzen Monat gleich! Nun wirkt die Lebensphase mit Nachmittagsbingo, Schnabeltasse und Erwachsenenwindel im grauen Wiener Winter natürlich noch einmal trüber, aber was soll's. Und natürlich sterben die Leute im "Haus Sonne" ohnehin wie die Fliegen. Nur geht das offenbar jemandem nicht schnell genug.

Hauen und Stechen. Sommerschwüle über Niederösterreich. Suchanek urlaubt – nicht ganz freiwillig – in einem traurigen Ort namens Feuchtkirchen. So viele Gelsen (hochdeutsch: Stechmücken) wie hier und heuer gab es noch nie! Beim Kennenlernabend auf dem "Erlebnisbauernhof" erklärt Suchanek den anderen Gästen deshalb die "Ceausescu-Methode": Der Diktator habe Gefangene im Donaudelta durch Millionen von Gelsen zu Tode kommen lassen. Darüber amüsiert man sich prächtig am Grillfeuer. Aber nur bis zum nächsten Morgen, als eine gefesselte Leiche gefunden wird.

Heimat, deine Leichen. Wulzendorf in Niederösterreich: Hier ist die Welt noch in Ordnung. Trotzdem hat der Suchanek so gar keine Lust, nach jahrelang erfolgreicher Heimatflucht nun gleich für mehrere Tage das Haus seiner Eltern zu hüten. Muss er aber. Das hat Folgen. Gleich in der ersten Nacht wird Suchanek beim Kiffen auf dem Balkon Zeuge einer Brandstiftung. Mit Todesfall. Die Frau vom Feuerwehrhauptmann, Mitglied der reaktionären "Legio Mariae", war im Dorf nicht gerade beliebt – aber deswegen bringt man doch nicht gleich jemanden um! Bei der einen Leiche bleibt es indes nicht.
