Seven special officers from Carinthia are deployed when an exceptional situation needs to be ended without violence. The so-called "Negotiation Group South" was deployed 36 times last year alone to save lives quietly and sensitively. The "Krone" attended a training session.

Robert sits trembling on the windowsill and threatens; he is in an exceptional situation. He doesn't want to talk to the police officers who rush over - only special investigator Peter (name changed) then manages to find a basis for conversation with the desperate man with his emphatically calm, empathetic demeanor.
