Plot

[edit]

The funny clown Bratislav Metulskie is found dead in the "Apollo" circus. Retired inspector 00 Schneider is asked to take over the case. Schneider and his aged sidekick Körschgen investigate the murder and soon identify a suspect by the name of Nihil Baxter. The passionate art collector is a little nuts and does not cultivate social contacts at all. Inspector Schneider investigates at the circus and pays Baxter a visit. Baxter makes up an alibi and claims that he was working on a painting when the murder took place. Körschgen finds out that the picture is an imitation. When Baxter tries to escape to Rio by plane after he stole a sculpture from the practice of Dr. Hasenbein, 00 Schneider and his sidekick are also on board. As they are incognito, they are able to arrest the criminal with the help of the world-famous "sniffer dog nose" pilot.
