After Amita is kidnapped from the CalSci campus the team works double time to find and save her. They quickly zero in on a suspect, Stephen Duryea, a Charles Manson type on a cross country crime spree with his devoted gang of girlfriends. Duryea, an insane genius with delusions of grandeur, explains to Amita that he'd taken her so she could hack into a major US bank for him, and delete credit files that would lead to a major disruption of the economy, and that would make him a household name. Agent Edgerton is able to provide assistance in the case, as he had been tracking Duryea for some time, and Amita is able to make contact with the team after Duryea sets her up to start hacking. Using various codes and signals, she is able to communicate with Charlie and the team from right under Duryea's nose, and works with them as they set up a fake bank website for her to hack. Meanwhile, after catching one of Duryea's girlfriends, Don is able to get her to give up the location of his hideout, and the team converges there for a final showdown. Thinking Amita had already gotten deep into the bank's servers and is ready to destroy them, Duryea isn't fazed when the FBI shows up at his doorstep and a firefight ensues. He orders Amita to destroy the files, and just as he realizes that he's been had Edgerton is able to shoot him down, saving Amita's life. Later on after everyone has recovered, Charlie asks Amita to marry him.
