Adelheid’s mother, Rosa (played by Gisela May) did not always have it easy. Both World War II and the post-war period demanded many sacrifices. Because of her three marriages, she wears not only a double but a triple name, namely Muller-Graf Kleditsch.

                             

In her first marriage, she was married to Lieutenant Colonel Hermann Muller, her childhood sweetheart. Since Hermann took part in World War II, the marriage took place after his return from captivity in 1950. Three years later, Rosa's first love died already from pneumonia.

 

Prior to Hermann's return, Rosa was convinced that he had been killed in the war. During this time she had a brief affair with a British soldier.

 

The prosecutor Heinrich Graf examined the death of Hermann Muller and got to know his widow, Rosa, in the course of his investigations. The two fell in love and married in 1955. The marriage lasted 11 years, until 1966, when Heinrich Graf choked on the thread of a roulade.

 

The death of Heinrich Graf led Rosa to meet Hugo Kleditsch. Her late husband had named Rosa the beneficiary of a high amount in life insurance. Hugo Kleditsch was then working for the insurance and was entrusted with the investigation of the death of Heinrich Graf.

 

The two became intimate in the course of investigations, which meant that they finally got married. But this marriage also came to a tragic end, as Hugo Kleditsch succumbed to a heart attack in 1977 at a lake.

 

In the same year, her daughter Adelheid married patrolman Eugene Moebius. After being unfaithful, his wife filed for divorce and she moved in with her ??mother. Since Rosa Muller-Graf Kleditsch was living in a large apartment in a Hamburg period villa, the two women had plenty of room, so this didn’t change the situation at all.

 

Since Eugene Mobius is still trying to win Adelheid back, Rosa still maintains contact with her former son-in-law. But Rosa knows how to make perfect use of this situation. She only addresses Eugene Moebius as "Mr. Mobius" when he does errands repairs in the home. Eugene sometimes receives a delicious meal or coffee and cake in return.

 

What may be recognized in the relationship between Rosa Muller-Graf-Kleditsch and her daughter, Adelaide Mobius, is that the women are partially close to one another and enjoy each other’s company. At times, however, it is also true that Adelheid finds her mother’s calls at work annoying. The main reason is that Mommy tell her only wants what needs to be done, which she could also had told her over breakfast.
