The episode "The Negotiation" is part of season 5 of the popular American sitcom, Brooklyn Nine-Nine. It starts with a thrilling hostage situation that puts the entire 99th precinct in danger. Detective Terry Jeffords, played by Terry Crews, is taken hostage by a man who he wrongfully arrested a few years ago, leading to the latter spending time in prison. This time, he is determined to get his revenge.

The hostage-taker, named Matthew Langdon, is played by actor Will Hines. He manages to take Terry hostage inside a store. Terry was at the store to buy his daughters a video game, but little did he know that his past actions would result in his capture. Meanwhile, the rest of the team races against time to save Terry before it's too late. The detectives have to come up with a plan to negotiate with Langdon and release Terry safely.

Jake Peralta, played by Andy Samberg, takes charge of the negotiations and tries to reason with the hostage-taker. But, Langdon proves to be a tough nut to crack. He wants to see a lawyer, a therapist, and a pizza chef before he can release Jeffords. On the other hand, Jeffords has to make sure that everyone is safe and that Langdon doesn't hurt anyone. Jeffords is also worried about the thought of his daughters growing up without a father.

In the meantime, Amy Santiago, played by Melissa Fumero, and Charles Boyle, portrayed by Joe Lo Truglio, try their best to track down Langdon's ex-wife in order to understand his motivations. Rosa Diaz, played by Stephanie Beatriz, also has a brief encounter with the hostage-taker.
