Garthe Knight escapes from prison with the aid of Goliath, rebuilt and now completely invulnerable thanks to the efforts of Adrianne St. Clair , who has also evaded justice. Together they set about kidnapping a prominent scientist in order to sell him to a foreign power — but not before Garthe has also kidnapped Devon and April to force a final confrontation with Michael and KITT.
