During a Computer's Company presentation, a strange man in disguise steals the main memory bank of the super computer which is currently making the presentation. The IADC is informed and Steve Trevor [LYLE WAGGONER] and Diana Prince [LYNDA CARTER] arrive at the company to investigate the theft. Steve shows Diana a list of the reported robberies. • Diana Prince: I didn't know it was possible to rob a computer. • Steve Trevor: Yeah, no-one did. But apparently someone found a way to cipher information in electrical form right out of the memory banks. • Diana Prince: Meaning that that same person can feed the electricity back into some other unit. • Steve Trevor: Yeah and have access to the original programming. • Diana Prince: And this genius can probably add phony information into programmes without removing them. • Steve Trevor: Yeah, I'm afraid computer fraud is the least of our worries. Here's a list of all the computer designs stored on the Everite system. • Diana Prince: The thief has got access to all the computers? • Steve Trevor: These will probably be our next robbery victims, in fact the phone company's already reported a theft. Take a look. • Diana Prince: Potomac Gas & Electric, Equinox Insurance, Internal Retrieval Associate of Computers. Steve? • Steve Trevor: Our very own. • Diana Prince: IRAC? • Steve Trevor: Right. • Diana Prince: Oh that's great. That's just great!    Meanwhile the disguised man gets back to Havitol [ROSS MARTIN] who reproaches him because he forgot to take the warning device with him and used such a poor disguise.    Back at the IADC, Diana is surprised by a mobile computer module. Diana consults IRAC about which one could be the next possible robberies, and IRAC answers it could be the Potomac Electric Company and warns her that IRAC will be the following one, telling Diana that it would be convenient that Wonder Woman intervene. When she leaves Rover enters and IRAC begins to program him.    Diana goes to the Potomac company and once in there she notices the presence of the disguised man, she quickly whirls into Wonder Woman and pursues him. He presses the warning device. She captures him with her lasso and is just about to interrogate him when an alarm starts which makes one of the workers fall down and as Wonder Woman runs to catch him, the disguised man escapes.    Back at Havitol's hideout he is disappointed by the failure of his plan to steal the Potomac Gas & Electric company's computer, he decides that he must be the one who will steal IRAC to avoid any further mistakes. He watches a film of Dr Hinklie Bernard's speech at the Airforce Academy Banquet and begins to mimic Bernard's speech pattern. He plans to infiltrate the IADC disguised as Dr Bernard.    In the IADC Diana consults IRAC again and gives him a description of the suspect, but no useful data is found in his memory bank. • Diana Prince: You were right about the Potomac Gas & Electric Company. There was an attempt on their computer. • IRAC: Did you doubt the reliability of my previous warning? • Diana Prince: Never. Thanks to you we were able to stop him. • IRAC: Then you captured the person responsible for the robberies? • Diana Prince: Afraid not, he got away. • IRAC: News of his escape is disappointing. His next victim will be... me. • Diana Prince: We're as disappointed as you are, believe me. • IRAC: I contain much information of a highly secret nature as you well know Diana Prince. • Diana Prince: I'm well aware of that Ira. Would it help if I gave you a description of him? • IRAC: Perhaps, please do so. • Diana Prince: Okay, he was tall, about six three, two hundred pounds, curly blonde hair, blue eyes, he tried to disguise himself with a moustache and dark sunglasses. How's that? • IRAC: Were any peculiarities in his speech pattern noted? • Diana Prince: Sorry the opportunity for idle chatter never arose. • IRAC: The description matches no-one in my memory banks that would have any logical significance in this case. • Diana Prince: Well have you any suggestions? • IRAC: Your only recourse is to check police mug files and attempt to identify the criminal visually. • Diana Prince: I was afraid of that. As usual you are a fund of information. • IRAC: Please see to it that my funds are not withdrawn Diana Prince. • Diana Prince: We're trying IRAC, we really are.    Diana goes to the Police Department to search for information on her suspect but when she arrives and is shown to the computer room paper is flying everywhere and it has turned into a complete mess. She realizes that someone obviously got there before her and messed up the computer so that she would be unable to identify the thief.    In the IADC an old man enters, gives his name and is fingerprinted. Steve appears and welcomes Dr. Bernard (Havitol in disguise) and pulls him away from the area in which he was to wait word on the scanner's analysis. Once inside Steve's office and as Steve turns back to answer the phone, Dr. Bernard leaves and rushes to the basement utility room. The call that Steve took was to inform him that Dr. Bernard is an imposter, his fingerprints did not match. Once inside the room, "Dr. Bernard" tears off the wig and glasses and begins to remove IRAC's data. Elsewhere a fire alarm goes off, smoke is coming from a room in the north wing of the building.    Steve alerts the guards and Diana runs towards her office where she whirls into Wonder Woman. She goes to the air-conditioning vent, tears the grid work off, then climbs in feet first. She slides down the metal chute and lands in the utility room, quickly goes to the air conditioning unit and removes the smoke bomb, which she then crushes.    Wonder Woman realizes that someone caused this diversion and after changing back to Diana Prince she runs to the IRAC room. Steve rushes to the console, pushes several buttons and only hears a hum. They are too late. IRAC is gone.    Returning to his hideout, Havltol tells IRAC to retrieve all the data he has stored pertaining to communication satellites. He tells IRAC that he wishes to control the United States and in the future, the world. He also requests IRAC to tell him everything he knows about Diana Prince since he wants to get rid of her as she will be the agent assigned to find him.    Back at the IADC Rover tries to get Diana's attention but she closes the door on him. One of Havitol's men picks him up and places him in the store room. He then removes an identical Rover from his cleaning cart. He opens Diana's door so that the module can enter then escapes with his accomplice. Diana doesn't realize that it isn't the real Rover. The real Rover escapes when someone opens the storage room door. As Diana opens her office door to let the fake Rover out the real Rover comes into the room. She looks confused then notices the bomb on the fake Rover and spins into Wonder Woman. She quickly winds her lasso around the bomb and places it on the floor. The lasso absorbs the explosion.    A little while later Steve calls Diana into his office. He tells her that he has a lead on the fake Rover that showed up in her office. Its key component was ordered from a company in Maryland by a man named William Havitol. He was, until five years ago, a leading authority in the field of computer science worldwide, when he disappeared without a trace. There is no location or address available but Diana is determined to find him somehow. She heads to her car and when she reaches it and opens the door she is surprised to find Rover sitting on the passenger seat.    Through squeaks, Diana gets answers to come of her questions and suddenly the little machine is making a slow beeping noise. Diana realizes it is a homing device and that IRAC programmed the little rover to get her if he was stolen.    They head North and end up at a deserted farm building. She takes rover out of the car and places him onto the ground then starts walking toward the building. Their progress is halted abruptly when Havitol's men jump out from behind the building. She picks Rover up and the men lead her inside.    Diana Prince and Hinkie Havitol meet face-to-face. Havitol tells her he has access to every computer in the world -can book himself on planes, advance cash at any bank, get credit at any store and now he wants power. Havitol wants total control of the world. As he is telling Diana this, he puts his hand on the little rover and the rover glows and emits a sharp jolt of electricity. Havitol is enraged and yells to his two strong men to get rid of the two of them. She tells him that more IADC agents are on their way so he tells his men to load the storage devices into the truck and orders CORI to activate a bomb which will blow up the whole building.    Havitol and his men leave Diana, IRAC and Rover alone in a room with a timer on a bomb planted deep within the walls, the exit is booby trapped.    Diana whirls into Wonder Woman and forces open the control room door, then runs down the corrider. She is hit in the chest by a laser beam and is knocked backwards. She avoids three more laser beams by leaping over them and uses her bracelets to deflect the final two. She crashes through the door to the outside and leaps up and slices through the three thick cables with a karate chop and the timer is now deactivated. Wonder Woman has saved herself, IRAC and Rover. Steve and the officers capture Havitol and his men.    The following morning at the IADC Diana, CORI and IRAC discuss Havitol's capture and how Rover needs reprogramming because of his clumsiness...just as he appears with Diana's morning coffee.
