Into this mess comes Max McLaughlin, a Brooklyn cop who arrives to help train a German civilian police force to try to bring some order to the post war chaos. He not only has to deal with hostile Soviets and a dreaded crime lord known as the Angel Maker, but also with his own quest to find his brother Moritz, who recently disappeared somewhere in the city.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })

 All Germans Are Nazis

 All Germans Are Nazis: The prevalence of this trope causes a problem for the German protagonists, as they have to constantly prove that they are trustworthy. The officer in charge of the Russian sector is even trying to make this an Enforced Trope by killing the popular and honest head of Berlin's new police force because he can't have a "good German" running around.

 Asshole Victim: Nobody in the audience sheds a tear for the two rapist GIs who are killed in revenge by Karin. The audience is also tempted to fist pump every time Moritz brutally kills a Nazi.
