Episodes
1. The Tech
During a shootout in a secret government lab, National Security Agency computer technician Jake Foley is caught in the crossfire and is accidentally injected with nanites, which give him superhuman powers. First up, Jake's long-time crush, Sarah Heywood is kidnapped by IRA kidnappers who want the nanites that are in Jake. He must use his new abilities to save her before it's too late.
2. Training Day
Agent-in-training Jake Foley is put to the test when a madman threatens the capital with an electromagnetic bomb. After the madman scatters the NSA agents all over Washington, it's up to Jake to stop him and the bomb.
3. Cater Waiter
When a top-secret, next-generation tank's schematics are stolen, super-powered NSA agent-in-training Jake Foley is sent undercover to an Embassy party--as a cater waiter--to support agent Kyle Duarte's mission to recover the stolen documents. When Kyle is betrayed by former lover and double-agent Mai Ling Wong, Jake becomes Kyle's only hope of getting out alive. Meanwhile, as if protecting a fellow agent and clearing away champagne glasses wasn't enough, Jake stumbles into his long-time crush Sarah, and must now protect both his unglamorous cover and shaky image.
