The A-Team
TV Show · Action · Adventure

Accused of a crime they didn't commit, The A-Team members are former U.S. Army Special Operations soldiers who escaped from a military prison. They use their considerable skills to accomplish missions for hire while avoiding capture by the military police who are always on their tail. Most episodes involve the group being hired for a dangerous-but-sympathetic mission during which they become trapped and use their ingenuity and firepower to escape, finally completing the mission with great success. The core cast includes group leader and disguise expert John "Hannibal" Smith (George Peppard), con artist and handsome ladies' man Templeton "Faceman" Peck (Dirk Benedict), expert mechanic "B.A." Baracus (Mr. T), and mentally unstable pilot H.M. Murdock (Dwight Schultz). Throughout the show's five seasons, different female characters joined or helped the A-Team, most significantly, reporter Amy Amanda "Triple A" Allen (Melinda Culea).

    Stan Rodgers hires the A-Team to get his daughter away from the maniacal religious leader Martin James and his machine-gun wielding followers.

While Hannibal, Face, B.A., and Amy are locked in a windowless cell in the cult's heavily guarded compound, they teach Amy that the reason they are able to attempt such dangerous escapades is their ability to face death squarely, without fear.

When he threatens to expose them, they in turn threaten to go after his wife and daughter.

Thompson takes Hannibal and Face into custody while he runs a check on their fingerprints. Locked up in the next cell is Sonny Jenko, leader of the vicious "Road Warrior" motorcycle gang. Sonny vows that the gang will come and get him and make "mincemeat" out of the Sheriff and his deputy.
