Outline

Police Inspector Ed Maloney seeks the A-Team’s help in bringing down a renegade LAPD SWAT team that has been committing crimes for money. As pointed out by B.A., “It’s like the A-Team is going up against themselves”; they bug the SWAT team’s uniforms to collect intelligence, saving a target and aggravating their leader. In the end, the A-Team succeeds in the capture of three members of the SWAT team, while convincing another to snitch on them. Meeting up with Maloney, the A-Team returns the pay he had given them, with their expenses deducted.
