One Saturday, the Slurb, a strange little creature with a proboscis nose, enters Mr. Taschenbier's life. Slurb, who immediately adopts the shy Mr. Taschenbier as his "daddy," is, however, his sheer opposite: he is cheeky and chaotic and throws his well-ordered life into sheer chaos. But when Taschenbier discovers that he can fulfill all his wishes with the help of Slurb's blue freckles, his life suddenly changes. He appeases his bad-tempered landlady, Mrs. Rotkohl, and he can finally get one over on his nasty neighbor, Mr. Lürcher. Everything could be so nice if Mr. Taschenbier didn't fall in love with his pretty colleague Mrs. März and if the Slurb didn't almost burst with jealousy...

27-year-old Anna and Jonas, who is one year older, get to know each other through their university clique. The initial attraction leads to an unspectacular one-night stand that seems like the beginning of a light summer affair. However, the encounters between the two are also characterized by a lot of friction and provocation. Then something happens that completely changes their lives: after a party with lots of alcohol, the two have sex. Later, Anna thinks she was raped by Jonas. Anna feels traumatized and thinks she can remember her “no.” Jonas, on the other hand, remembers consensual sex. The only person Anna can initially confide in is her sister Daria, who advises her to report the crime. Eventually, those around you also find out about the accusation. Friends have to take a stand. The podcaster Kelly researches the events and tries to explore attitudes and discourses surrounding the case and its effects on victims, perpetrators and those around them.
