After Japan's economic bubble burst the country slowly recovered, but dirty politicians still make deals with dirty businessmen so that they can both profit from the hard work of others. Keiichi Suzuki, head of Ōshika Construction, and Seijiro Matsuzaka, one of the members of parliament, have a deal going on that allows Ōshika Construction to use fewer materials in their projects while still letting their buildings get approved for business use. Unfortunately for them, the Government Crime Investigation Agency, the Japanese government-approved but independently-run equivalent to the FBI, is already on the move. Jotaro Zaizen, a long-thought-dead police officer, is the agent on the Ōshika case and gathers a group of people who have reasons to fight Suzuki and Matsuzaka.

Second, the Nile is a truly cosmopolitan water. Its source lies in tropical Africa, its most important tributary – the Blue Nile – originates in the Ethiopian highlands. Its longest stage – through Sudan and Egypt – is characterised by Arab influences. Travelling through a sea of sand, this river gives life.

The focus is on the life and everyday life of the “half triplets”: On the one hand, there is Paul, a king of procrastinating, who resolves every day to change his life... but unfortunately something is constantly interfering with him. Be it budding feelings for his ex Berthe, the constant best buddy advances of her new lover Jan or an urgent series episode - Paul always has an excuse ready. But luckily there is his half-sister Barbie, a determined top manager with significantly more balls in her pants, and his half-brother Ludwig, a bon vivant who avoids work like the devil avoids holy water. He constantly intrudes on Paul and drives him crazy. The “half triplets” are inextricably linked to one another through father Gerd's involuntary, perfectly timed contraceptive failures, who were born by three different women on the same day and are welded together by their family neuroses.
