What's this? Dessert. I asked you to bring me a piece of

pecan pie. Don't tell me that we're out of it. I saw half a

pan in the fridge this morning. I gave that to the new

gardeners. You don't need it. Well, then bring me that bag of

fig newtons you have stashed in the pantry. That's an order,

James. You're the general. If you keep this up, you'll be as

fat as Schwarzkopf.

Ugh. Ugh.

James?

10 years ago, all it took was one man and one car to get the

job done. Now, the foundation for law and government has

assembled five highly-skilled operatives and paired them with

the most advanced state-of-the-art vehicles to

take on a new breed about law.

They are team Night Rider.

Look, Jenny, every major law enforcement agency is already

involved with this which is why flags placing us on standby

status. Standby status? You're kidding me. Attention. Kyle. I

can't just stand around and let them kill Joel Butler just to

prove some fanatical point. Jenny, we all know your history

with the general. I think we should have Sky one change

course for Virginia immediately. Jenny, see this

chair? This is the chair where the boss sits. You see your

name on it? No. This is my chair.

Isn't me? Is it getting a little warm in here? Will the

death officer please report to. Erica, we need that tape. I can

only run so fast, Kyle. I'm wearing heels.

Where's Trek?

I'm General Stephen Butler. I've been told to read this. We

are the group fallen nation. We want no ransom. We have no

demands for your weak and helpless government. We simply

want to use the general to announce to the world our

intention to bring America to our knees. What better way to

illustrate our resolve than to capture one of your military

heroes and use him as a puppet. I'm not going to do this. Don't

listen to these phonetics. They're just a bunch of

low-rent thugs. So, what do we have on Fallen Nation? Nothing.

No one's ever heard of him but given our standby status. We're

stuck on the sidelines. I was going to say flags allowing us

to pursue our own investigation. Duke, see what

the other agencies are up to? Erica, check with the garage.

Make sure the vehicles are ready if we need them and

somebody find Trek. Jenny, I think you might be a little too

close to this. What are you saying? You want me to sit this

one out? Well, some time off might not be a bad idea. I'll

take a vacation when the general's home safe.

It's almost as if someone's playing ping pong with the

dowjos at What do you want to do next, Plato? Take out gates.

This is unprecedented. Microsoft stock just dropped

28%. Didn't make it to the staff meeting. Well, Kyle, you

know I'm not a morning person.

I'll give you a chance to make it up to me. Got any idea where

this tape was made?

Well, it's either an industrial bunker or a basement. It's

probably a basement since the electrical outlet there in the

corner is commercial. The basement of a residential home

narrows it down a little bit. Okay and a plate is going to

run a three-dimensional scan of the room to get the

measurements. Hopefully, then, it'll be able to narrow down a

possible architectural design for the rest of the house. How

long is this going to take? Fogarcarb. Apollo, it'll take

yarns. That's Starbucks nineteen seventy-eight. That'll

start Galactica. He's telling you it's going to take a little

while. Now, there's gotta be something missing. Some

neighbors saw a van heading north from General Butler's

house. We should be zeroing in on that area. The police closed

off all the roads within minutes. They couldn't have

gotten far. Just got off the phone with the FBI. They're

doing a house to house in Alexandria but so far, not a.

What if they didn't go north? Five different witnesses say

they did. Which makes it a little more likely they went

south. I figured. 19 78, Red Brigade snatched former Prime

Minister Aldo Morrow in Rome. These two vans, one took the

visible route, the other had the hostage. Should I be taking

notes? I mean, are we going to be tested on this? Don't listen

to her, Kyle. I think you're brilliant. That is my

motorcycle up there. Who programmed her to talk back to

me? Trek, how you coming? Well, I'm among the architectural

styles in the area. This kind of house is the only one that

would have the right size basement. The good news is

though, there's less of them to the south. Here. Plato, can you

find a match? Tell her what she's won, Johnny. You'd just

be lost without us, wouldn't you? Of course, this is

assuming the tape was made in the basement otherwise we've

got nothing and now you really know how to suck the joy out of

even the smallest victory. But since there's nothing concrete,

we'll follow this lead ourselves. I don't want to

alert the authorities prematurely. Sky one is on

final approach. Duke, it's time to let the beast out of his

cage.

Beast, what's our ETA? We'll get there when we get there.

How are you doing, Jenny? Are you comfortable? I'm fine.

Thank you, Beast. You just let me know what I can do to make

your ride more enjoyable. If you're chilly, I'd be happy to

turn up the heat. I can't even get him to turn on the radio.

Maybe if you talk to him like a friend instead of a car. It is

a car. It is a truck.

Scan the area. Let us know what you got. No infrared readings

in the barn or the upper floor of the house. The basement is

shielded. I can't tell you what's down there. That must be

where they're hiding them. Let's move. So you don't know

what's waiting for us down there. We'll go slow. Stay

behind me.

We've got a magnetic lock with a 10-digit combination. And the

doors are four inches thick. Won't be kicking them in. Booby

traps? None that I can detect but I may have something in

back of the beast to cut through that lock. Beast? Are

you carrying the diamond blade minisaw? I don't know. Look for

yourself. But Jenny, if you're in a hurry, I can just burn

through that lock with my microwave laser beam. Uh, sure

beast, that would be great. I want to talk to you about

switching cars.

No one's here. I must have moved.

Kyle can handle this.

It's coming from under there.

C4 with the signal fuse. How much time? About a minute. When

the whistle stops, boom.

Beast, come in. Beast. I said the basement was shielded.

Whatever they're using is blocking transmission. Think,

there's gotta be a way out.

All the conventional exits have been sealed. But we got an air

shaft in the upper left hand corner of the east wall. It's

welded shut. Anyway, we can somehow blow it open? Nope. But

in about 40 seconds, that thing will do it for us.

Wait, I hear something.

All aboard. Hurry. Beast, get 'em out of here. Go. Go.

Come on, Coop.

Nice going beast. Finally came through for me. Are you okay,

Jenny? They must have moved the general. But why? How could

they know we're on today? Kyle, it's Erica. What's up? You guys

better get back here. She's not going to believe this. Better

just over an hour ago, General Stephen Butler made a heroic

escape from his captors who call themselves Fallen Nation.

General, how did you escape? Uh they actually were trying to

move me to a new location and I was in a truck with one guard

and I was just lucky enough to get the drop on it. General

Butler, just who is Fallen Nation? I really don't know. Uh

I did not Understand most of what they were saying but it

was hard to miss the contempt that they held for us or the

intention to do us harm. How do they plan on doing that

general? And how do they plan on doing that? I wish I knew

but they're not going to stop with the failed kidnapping.

Next time these guys will raise the states. What can you do

about it general? But what can you do about it? Well I've

talked over some of my colleagues and we're going to

meet with the president and see what we can do to help. I can

also watch family matters and tell you the punchline to every

joke before Urkel can. And that's how you graduated MIT

when you were eleven? Dan. We'd better not invoice an expense

account for our rescue of the general. Being as he wound up

saving himself. I just thank god he got out alive. Whoever

these fallen nation guys are, they're sophisticated, well

organized, and we don't have a clue as to what they're

planning. You need to talk to Butler. After what he's been

through, you want me to go there and help him relive it? I

don't think so. He's the one lead we've got. I'm still not

going. You're not thinking this through, Jenny. Butler's the

only person who can identify these guys. If I were a

terrorist, I'd consider that a loose end.

Mmm, I love a man in uniform. We're very busy. The general

doesn't have time to talk to you right now. Look, Davis, I

was one of his soldiers too. I care for him just as much as

you do. I didn't deserve him for some fancy car club.

Lieutenant Letterthrew.

A lieutenant. You single?

Liam Majors called me this morning. He wants to play me in

the TV movie based on my experience. Hold out for James

Gardner. I fought in three wars and nobody took notice. I get

kidnapped by a bunch of crackpots and I'm on the cover

of Newsweek. You seem to be taking it in stride. I have to

tell you something, Jenny. Actually, this time I was

pretty scared. I've never heard you say that before. I've never

faced anything like this. I'm just great that Georgia was

away visiting the grandkids. What did the president have to

say? Oh, he wants me to lend a hand. I can't blame him. I

mean, we were all caught flat footed by this bunch. Are you

sure you want to take this on after all you've been through?

Oh, I won't be doing it alone. I have an outstanding team

backing me up. Of course, there's always room for one

more. General. I really could use you. Oh, I know you're with

the foundation now. Working for Kyle Stewart. I heard he's not

doing too well after his accident. That he's not quite

back up to speed. That's not true. Kyle's as good as he ever

was when he was CIA. He holds the whole team together. He's a

natural leader. I really admire him. You used to say that about

me. I still do. And believe me, I'm going to do everything I

can to help. Good. Because the one thing I know for sure,

we're going to hear from again.

Did you try cross referencing interpoles terrorism database

with CIAs? Not one match with fallen nation. Shouldn't you be

out looking for them? I want a new lead before we make a move.

Besides, just be tripping over all the other law enforcement

agencies are doing the same thing. I've got an idea. How

about checking alternate spellings under the FBI's

domestic radicals index? I've checked everybody. Interpole,

CIA, FBI, IRS. What about the NFL? Don't be cute. I'm telling

you, I got no record of them anywhere. That's because he's

got a small memory. I can store a lot more information than he

can. Do you have anything on them? No, but if I did, I'd

have more than him. This whole TKO program went to hell the

day they started making female cars. Uh Chuck, how you coming?

We've gone over the forensic evidence from the crime scene.

I agree with the FBI. There's nothing. And our lab is much

better. Does anyone have anything useful to say to me?

Hi, communication just got worked. There's a statewide

blackout in Virginia. You got here fast with that? Hello, the

heels. I can show you a grid of all the affected power stations

since Dante isn't programmed to provide such a service. Kiss

up. I've traced the source to one relay station. It's

definitely not a mechanical failure. You think it's

related? We're close. Check it out.

He's still breathing. Alright, get in. I'll call the

paramedics.

The whole computer system's been tampered with as well as

all the backup programs. It's going to take days to restore

this power, man.

Oh, he won't get anything from that. Don't be so sure.

Of the five million voice quints I've tried. Not one

match with the recording from the camera. Same here. Sorry

Kyle. Plato, let me guess. He came up empty. You are correct,

sir. Just leaves us right back where we started. Fallen nation

can strike at any time and we can't do a damn thing about it.

Kyle, this is Jenny. We just received a transmission, that

voice pattern from Dante. Domino's running a check. Tell

her to forget it. We're never going to find a match. I know

who it is. But how? None of the other. Because I added that

voice print to my file.

Davis.

As emergency generators run out of power, Virginia plunges

further into chaos tonight, the group Fallen Nation, the

terrorist responsible for the recent kidnapping of General

Stephen Butler have openly claimed responsibility for the

statewide blackout. We're never going to find him this way,

there's gotta be hundreds of listings for Mark Davis. I'm

heading back to the general's house to warn him. Not yet.

Give us a chance to grab Davis first. Butler has to know that

Davis is a traitor. He might not be the only one. If there

are other people close to the general who are working with

Davis, he could get tipped off before we get to him. And if

Davis finds out we're on to him, it could cost Butler's

you. Shook we leave.

Jenny, I'm giving you an order. Don't tell Butler anything.

Jenny? I think she hung up. Yeah, I know. Look, we gotta

find Davis fast.

Annapolis Naval Air Station, good morning. Hello, can you

tell me how I can find a lieutenant Mark Davis? I'm

sorry, sir. I'm not authorized to release that information.

Oh, are you sure? Not even for me. I'm afraid so. You know, I

never usually say things like this but has anyone ever told

you what a lovely voice you have? He's in Baltimore

assembling troops for the crisis in Virginia. She even

gave me a home address, said she wants to meet me. I didn't

have the heart to tell her I was a car.

As the number of highway accidents and reports of

looting continue to rise, efforts to restore power to

Virginia have been unsuccessful. Army and National

Guard units have been reassigned and posted across

the state in order to calm fearful, anxious residents. The

governor has declared a state of emergency and the president

plans on making a statement tonight. We caught up with

General Butler at his home in Alexandria. He had this to say.

An attack like this is meant to cause panic. Now the best thing

we can do is to remain calm. General, do you know what the

president is going to say tonight? No, but the divisions

under my command are on full alert. I'm sure the president

is going to demand a swift and immediate action. General, a

recent gallop poll puts your approval rating 20 points ahead

of the president. We're in good hands with the president. I

back him 100%.

I'll be down in a few minutes. He's on his way in. Now

remember, Kyle said stick to the plan. It means no

improvising. Hey, it's not like I've never done this before.

I didn't expect you home so soon.

As you can see, I'm a captain so you have to be nice to me.

Yes, ma'am. Actually, I was hoping you could introduce me

to General Butler. I just have to meet him. Well, I I am the

general's most trusted aide. If anyone can get you to see him,

I can. Oh, Unlucky for both of us. But you know, it never

occurred to me that his lieutenant would be far more

sexy than the general himself. Why can't you ever stick to the

script?

I don't know who you are but I'm not buying it. I'm telling

the Drews, I swear. Almost had me convinced right up to you

said I was sexier than Butler. They always prefer him.

Give me the plate.

How'd you disable the limo? Beverly Hills cop, Paramount

Pictures 1984. Eddie Murphy stuffed the banana in Judge

Rhino's tailpipe. You guys scare me. You two just better

be quiet and listen to the police band. Flex are up ahead

approaching Northside Expressway.

Up right on the tail.

I think we should have spent a little more time planning our

escape room. Live on the edge a little, will you?

We're seconds away. We see you. All units stand by. Okay, Play

Doh. Let's do it. It's two, two, two minutes in one.

Relax, GI Joe. It's just a dream.

Like I said, I never even heard a fallen nation till they

kidnapped the general. If you're not going to be honest,

how are we ever going to be friends? I got enough friends.

18 hours and we still got nothing.

He's not going to talk. Too bad. He just ran out of

options.

Val, don't mess with me. I'm a lieutenant of United States

Marine Corps. Love for you to show off some of your fancy

combat train. We're not allowed to use it on civilians. Look, I

told you everything I know. I believe you. Glenn, what more

do you want from me? Closing altitude at 28, 000 feet.

Nothing will be free to go. Hey. Warning. Opening of outer

doors will cause explosive decompression in the airlock.

Wait, please. Wait. Please. Warning. Opening of outer

doors. Cause explosive decompression in the air. Hey.

I'll tell you everything I know. There is no fallen

nation. It's just a bunch of guys working for Butler. It's

all part of his plan. Butler?

The blackout was a diversion to keep the armed forces busy and

if all goes according to plan, Butler's men pretending to be

part of Fallen Nation will launch a nuclear missile

against Washington. That's the most ridiculous thing I've ever

heard. Davis is clearly trying to throw us off track. That was

my first reaction. But think about it, Jenny. We wake up

tomorrow and there's a big hole between Maryland and Virginia.

Who do you think the country's going to turn to?

Jenny, anything that matter? No. Well, yes. It's about

Lieutenant Davis. Is he okay? Yes, but. Oh, that's a relief.

I don't know what I do without him. He's a good man, a good

soldier. I don't think you know him as well as you thought. But

there isn't anything you can say to me that's going to shake

my confidence, Eddie. He's involved in something. I don't

think you're following me. Anything Mark Davis has done.

He's done on my orders.

Jenny, take a hard look around you. America is falling apart

if it seems. Now, there's a lot of important work to do in the

days ahead. You made it all up. Said it yourself. Country needs

me. So now what? You're going to wipe out the

government of the United States? I have no intention.

All a nation will do that for me.

So your fallen nation is going to wipe out Washington

DC. It's no big loss. Steven, stop this now. Tell me the

truth. You're really going to miss it. How easy is it

going to be to launch a nuclear missile? Well, in general, this

kind of clout could probably get his hands on the necessary

access codes given to a few of his psycho marines. Someone who

might have been stationed at the missile side at one point

and might know it pretty well. Boy, you know it's so easy. I'm

surprised someone hasn't done it before. Great. Country will

be so desperate for leadership you won't have to run for

president. The crown of king. Davis says Butler's going to

launch at 9 o'clock. I thought people did this kind of thing

at midnight. No time to alert anyone else. We're on our own.

Let's move it. What about Jenny? The blood of a million

people beyond your hands. Is that how you want history to

remember you? Jenny. You don't remember anything I taught you.

It's a battlefield decision. When to say you must always be

prepared to sacrifice a few.

I'm sorry you won't be going with me.

This is Trump.

Listen to me. You two are betraying your country. Shut

up.

Let's just take her car.

Yeah, 0% deviation.

Right sixteen, left twenty-6, right four.

Alpha Delta two eight nine.

Later and I can probably take out the backup power generator

so we can get up close without them seeing us. How long's that

going to take? Six maybe 7 minutes. We don't have time for

suddenly. How about loosening them up with some heavy

artillery. No, it'll give me too much warning. Damn. Hate

making a mess. Let's take it to him, beast.

This is completely against regulations. We are not to

engage in battle if we have no protective covering. I'm not

the beast, you know. What the hell are you doing?

I know I shouldn't let you drive. Turn it off. Try

something. Good thing's out of control. Take the breaks or

something. Come on.

Goodbye boys.

As if I couldn't guess.

Go.

Missile launch sequence initiated. One minute to the

Oh, great. You know, you idiots were supposed to wait until

nine.

50 seconds. Ugh.

40 seconds. Ugh.

How you doing, Chuck? You need a little more time? Yeah, but

could you get him off the thing, please?

Kyle, you guys better hurry up. We can't hold these guys off

forever.

20 seconds.

Live it all. Ten, nine,

Sit. Four, three, two,

Missile launched.

We're too late.

Oh boy. Keep your OK

então back and you know boom. Begin initiation of re-entry

sequence. Uh-oh. What'd you do? Well, I I seem to have sped up

its reentry. It's going to be hitting the ground about five

minutes sooner now. Dante.

Secret Service reports Air Force One is off the ground.

The president is safe. Great. Eddie's worried about the 900,

000 other people. Don't move. Look, look, look. As long as I

can I can disarm the nuclear war, the damage should be

minimal and we should. Warhead armed. Great.

What's that? Now, I just earned the war code.

Come on, Trek. Don't pressure me, alright? That's when I,

that's why I had the nervous breakdown when I was twelve.

You gotta get into self-destruct. No pressure,

alright? No pressure. If it blows up in the atmosphere,

it'll spread radiation across three counts. I know how a

nuclear missile works.

How's it going? I was worried.

It's finished. Now that it's over, I only have one regret.

What's that?

That I lost your respect.

Well, at least you'll get one thing out of this. You'll be a

hero. I don't know what that word means anymore.

Erica, I'm going to have to report your flagrant disregard

for regulations. One stray bullet could have irreparably

damaged my program. So what's your point?

Nice job blowing up that missile. How'd you figure it

out? I didn't. I just typed in my mother's birthday and hope

for the best.

Maintenance, please report to the recreation room. The

jukebox is jammed on Moonlight at the Oasis. Welcome back.

Kyle. I don't know what to say. This was a hard one. It's over.

I was totally insubordinate. Yeah, you'd be screwed if this

was the marines. You did what you thought was right. It's

worth more to me than someone who just follows orders.

Uh Jenny, one more thing. Why'd you leave the general and come

work here? I have my reasons.

Please enter access code. Make your selection now. Your

selection, Michael Knight, requires a higher security

clearance level. I have a level 5 clearance. There's nothing

higher. Your selection Michael Knight requires a higher

security clearance level.
