USAF Lieutenant Sam Spade and her team of techies test high-tech gizmos and gadgets for the military. The Ergonomic Exoskeletal Extension - more fondly known as EEK - allows a person to step inside a lightweight metal frame and gain a robot's strength, speed, and vision capabilities. But the enhanced vision doesn't help when Sam stumbles over two dead bodies on a 2 a.m. test run in a remote patch of desert. She later learns from Border Patrol agent Jeff "Mitch" Mitchell that one of the dead men is a former US soldier-turned-arms dealer - and that his death may be part of an elaborate cover-up. Sam joins forces with Mitch to unravel the mystery. Then her lab is torched and they realize someone is turning up the heat. Too bad they underestimated Sam Spade's sheer stubbornness and courage under fire.
