Verhandlungssache (1998)
Lieutenant Danny Roman ist in Chicago der beste Vermittler zwischen Geiselnehmer und Polizei. Gerade hat er wieder einen Fall erfolgreich abgeschlossen, da wird sein Partner Nathan erschossen, kurz nachdem dieser Danny in einen Fall von Korruption und Betrug eingeweiht hat. Es gibt nämlich Individuen in den eigenen Reihen, die sich aus dem Invaliditäts-Fond bedienen. Danny wird beschuldigt, Nathans Mörder zu sein und anscheinend will ihm niemand zuhören, offensichtlich will man ihm den Mord in die Schuhe schieben. Nathan sieht in der Eile und Panik keine andere Möglichkeit, er nimmt sich vier Geiseln, unter anderem den Leiter der Dienstaufsicht Terence Niebaum und dessen Sekretärin. Als Führer der Verhandlung fordert er den auswärtigen Spezialisten Chris Sabian an, denn er weiß, daß nur ein Außenstehender Licht in die Sache bringen kann und er nur einem Fremden trauen kann. Die zwei beginnen zu verhandeln …
