Mockingbird gives August, Carlo and Lili instructions that they are to steal top secret plans for the United States' newest jet fighter, the XB-107 and that they are then to sell fake blueprints to a foreign spy, in order to destroy his credibility with the foreign power. They are able to gain access to the Pentagon through August's credentials, but after they get the plans, they are discovered and Carlo & Lili must ditch August in order not to blow his knowledge of their involvement in the caper and then fight their way out. They are able to make their escape, but August is informed that they stole fake blueprints but someone has, in fact, stolen the true plans. Their main suspect is a Russian spy named Nicolai Sholokov. Mike, King and Crimson are called on to get the plans back. They discover Nicolai does have the plans and the three manage to trick the spy out of the blueprints and return them to their US owners.
