The third season of the action-adventure television series The A-Team premiered in the United States on NBC on 18 September 1984, and concluded on 14 May 1985, consisting of 25 episodes.

Outline

Tawnia Baker, the A-Team’s support member for the last half season calls in the help of her friends to find an archaeologist (secretly her fiancé) that has gone missing during an Amazon expedition. Traveling to the Amazon, the A-Team must deal with the local pirate king, “El Cajon” (The Coffin). The A-Team have to find a way to locate the pirates, bringing them into unknown territory. Locating the pirates, they come across a plot that is far greater than any of them could have expected: Third Reich remnants building a nuclear station. As Murdock puts it “the Fuhrer the better.” The A-Team must ally themselves with the shady El Cajon’s forces to defeat the threat. This is the last appearance of Tawnia Baker, who weds her fiancé at the end of the episode.
