Sarah Graiman, a 24-year-old working on her Ph.D is following the path of her brilliant father, Charles Davison. When a group of men attempt to kidnap her, she gets a message from KITT that her father is in serious danger. Sarah and KITT find her childhood friend, Mike Tracer, a 23-year-old ex-Army Ranger who reluctantly agrees to help find out who is trying to steal KITT and find Charles.
