Without a Trace – Part 1
S4, E7: Emilie wants to put her grief for her husband behind her and persuades Tobias to go on a challenging climbing tour to the site of the accident. Suddenly, they slip. When Andreas happens to discover documents in the mountain rescue station indicating Emilie and Tobias' tour, he inevitably gets worried. Despite some technical problems with the helicopter, the mountain rescue team sets out to find them. Joined by the new rescue assistant Jessika, Emilie's sister, they set off in the direction of Kreuzkamm and arrive just in time. Tobias and Emilie are hanging on the rope, about to fall into the depths. A dramatic rescue operation begins, causing a catastrophe for everyone involved: the helicopter crashes, Michael breaks his leg, the weather deteriorates rapidly, and no one in the valley knows where the mountain rescuers are. Franz Marthaler unsuspectingly waits with Emilie's children for them to return, in vain. As the new day begins, his worry is so great that Franz alerts not only his arch-rival Peter Herbrechter, but also Toni Stössl from the mountain rescue team. However, valuable time passes before they finally have a guess as to where the missing people might be. They have no idea that they are now in the middle of a race for life and death.
