Outline

Marine Corporal Jason Magida (Victor Love), whom Admiral Chegwidden prosecuted more than eight years ago, escapes from the brig in Groton, Connecticut, and takes Admiral Chegwidden, Mac, and Bud as hostages inside the Admiral’s office. He demands a retrial here and now in the admiral’s office; a court had convicted him of giving classified information about the Patriot missile system to Israel. Harm and CIA officer Clayton Webb work from the outside to rescue them without killing the corporal. They also must be wary of shady CIA operative Gayle Osbourne (Leon Russom), who may try to prevent a revelation of the truth about the corporal’s case.
