him he'll see him in the swamp); B.A. is rescued by Murdock, but Murdock makes so many crazy demands B.A would rather face the firing squad! Murdock and Frankie desperately seek Stockwell's help in helping the team escape, but are rebuffed. Stockwell meets the A Team and says that while he won't help them escape, he does say that if they do escape on their own, he'll shelter and protect them with the offer of a presidential pardon but at a price of doing "suicide missions"! Eventually, through Murdock and Frankie's and Stockwell's clever manipulations, the team escapes their execution and are coerced into joining Stockwell's agency, whereupon they will perform covert high-risk "Suicide missions" for him in exchange for a presidential pardon. Their first job is to capture Curtiss gunrunner partners--Hannibal remarks "We're back"! Because of his collaboration in saving the A-Team, Frankie is forced by Stockwell to join them. On the bright side, Stockwell has Frankie's hospitalized relative taken care of. The team is moved to a home in Virginia, where the four now live. Murdock is also revealed to have been declared sane, likely through Stockwell's connections, and now has his first job a dozen dog walker.

The A-Team is called in to get the files back so the sting operation can go off without a hitch. Hannibal has Murdock pose as a doctor with knowledge of the process to lure the Russians. Meanwhile, Frankie, B.A. and Face are forced to deal with Federal agents sent by the government to find the girl, and a retirement home's worth of elderly people mistaking them for enemies.

At the end, the team discusses what they were going to do if they get their pardon, and it is implied that they would continue doing what they were doing as the A-Team. Murdock wonders what the future holds for the A-Team; Hannibal assures him that they'll have many more years of their zany adventures. 483:
Murdock, who is not part of the court martial, will be suspected, the rest of the A-Team is convicted at the hearing. Meanwhile, Frankie Santana, a colleague of Hannibal's in his stunt work, and Murdock seek evidence to prove the innocence of Hannibal, Face, and BA. Note: Murdock locates a former North Vietnamese officer who tells the truth to Murdock about why the A Team were sent on a suicide mission to rob the Hanoi National Bank - it was a set up by Colonel Morrison to try to get the team killed as Morrison was actually a traitor who was working with the Viet Cong; when the A-Team actually succeeded in their Impossible Mission, Morrison was executed for his failure to get them killed!
