Negociador

Four friends meet after a long time to watch the Brazilian World Cup final between Argentina and Germany. After some discussion, they decide to make a bet that will end up revealing secrets they have been keeping for a long time.

This is not only ensured by her four children: the brash Lena, her self-confident younger sister Anna and the cheeky twins Anton and Philipp. They miss their father. In consideration of this, Julia doesn't want her relationship with her new lover Jens Zumbelt to become too close. The fact that Jens is also her boss at the private broadcaster "Canal 5" doesn't make things any easier. Although Julia would like to make socially critical reports, Jens pushes her to do exciting tabloid stories. Julia is offered one of these by her very sprightly aunt Isolde. After the sudden death of her friend in a retirement home, Isolde works as a hobby detective on the trail of the alleged poisoner Eckard Born. While Julia doesn't believe a word she says, the children sense a big adventure. They let Aunt Isolde incite them to break into Born's room and actually come across a list of poisons along with revealing excerpts from the dead's account. Julia can't complain about not being sufficiently excited. On the twins' birthday, she lets Wolf guide her to a meadow where a hot air balloon is waiting - the balloon pilot's heart attack means the ride takes off However, an unexpected end only confirms Julia's bad opinion of the Hallodri Wolf. Nevertheless, she has to ask him for a favor again. Isolde disappeared without a trace after her visit to Eckard Born. Through worrying about their aunt, Julia and Wolf finally become closer again. Julia courageously seeks out the mysterious Mr. Born. He invites her for a cup of tea, but it tastes strangely bitter.
