What is our assignment?
10

• "In summer 2003 a crack commando unit was sent to
  MSU by the MDE for a crime they didn't commit.
  These men and women promptly escaped from a
  maximum security computer lab to the Lansing area
  underground. Today, still wanted by the state,
  they survive as teachers of fortune. Joyce Grant
  had a challenge, and no one else could help, so
  she hired us, the A-Team."
