With a modified Trabant, they travel back in time to take part in the press conference of Günter Schabowski which is also visited by the Czech reporters Pavel Pipovič and Bronko Kulička.
- Winnetou in love: Blood brothers Winnetou and Old Shatterhand argue during a conference with other Native American tribes and diverge.15 years later, Winnetou wants to marry Annette, daughter of General Motors. Old Shatterhand, who now operates a boat hire in the desert, should be his best man. But Shatterhand is chased by the bounty hunters Dr. Schmitz and his hand puppet Tschango, because he shot Abraham Lincoln by mistake. As the blood brothers arrive at Annette and General Motors, Old Shatterhand notices that Motors only wants to gain the land of the Apache. He can convince Winnetou to prevent this transaction.
- Sissi – Menopause of an Empress: Emperor Franz, empress Sissi and their field marshal are in search for a weekend house and have to stay in a Haunted house, because the estate agent arrives to late.
- Lutz of Wall Street: Lutz was caught while travelling without paying. Now he needs to pay 60 dollars fee or he has to go to prison. With the help of the broker Mr. Moneymaker, he earns many million dollars at the Wall Street with his laughter. Unluckily, Lutz spends all of the money.
- The Planet of Woman: The crew of the (T)Raumschiff Surprise (U.S.S. Hasselhoff) around Captain Kork, Mr. Spuck and Schrotty should protect the planet of women of the clone army around King Clone, because they try to cut the women's hair to use it for toupees.
