The episode starts off innocuously enough, with Jaime being asked by Oscar to be a courier and deliver a piece of technology to a US Air Force general and to convey another device to an air force pilot as the "proof of receipt". Turns out the general and the pilot were somehow espionage agents looking to sell to foreign powers.
Jaime is framed for being in on it. From there, she must prove her innocence.
Inevitably, there is a jail break, and Jaime goes on the run to find the spies and retrieve the MacGuffin.

Skip Homeier-Amusing!
richard.fuller118 December 2014
Warning: Spoilers
I changed my mind. I'll give it a ten.
Jamie is to deliver a device to a general. A helicopter takes her to the location and she does so. She then delivers a briefcase to the pilot as his payment and off she goes.
Turns out it wasn't the real general, whom she nor Oscar had never met, nor were they shown a photograph.
Skip Homeier, who best I can say is try to picture Joe Piscopo acting very serious, is the investigator Mr. Gregory.
He interrogates Jamie rather harshly, which is peculiar, as he doesn't seem to deduce the pilot who took her there might have had anything to do with it, and seems to conclude Jamie knows everything, which if she had, why would she have hung around? Barry Sullivan is the inventor who is disappointed in Ms. Sommers. She seemed very nice.
Now we see his chauffeur and it is the bogus general.
This episode was what bionics should have been about; with Homeier as Gregory bringing all his authoritative narrow-mindedness to a confrontational level, Jamie displays her abilities several times over, from the prison to a phone booth and beyond (interesting bit about the dime as well).
The climactic conclusion also offers its wonderful bit of suspense as well. Jamie bargains and gets results. A real nail-biter in the end, actually.
Jamie's final words to Gregory are brilliant. She got what she wanted and needed.
