Synopsis by Hal Erickson
This episode introduces Marla Heasley in the role of Tawnia Baker, an intrepid reporter who becomes an unofficial member of the A-Team (it is explained that Tawnia's predecessor Amy Allen is "on assignment" overseas). Working undercover to expose a crooked security firm, Marla is kidnapped when she tumbles onto the firm's scheme to assassinate foreign dignitary Shiek Fatasi (Edward Ansara). Figuring they owe Marla a favor after she helped them escape the clutches of Col. Dexter (Lance LeGault), the A-Team races to her rescue. Future That 70s Show regular Kurtwood Smith is seen as a villain named Carson.
