Fifteen years have past since Michael Knight and KITT roamed the California countryside, eliminating obstacles and persons under the guise of FLAG, the Foundation for Law and Government. Now, Michael Knight is replaced by five, cunning yet clever operatives, and KITT is replaced by five other sophisticated, "talking" cars. The year is 1997, and the five operatives and cars travel around the country aboard a C-4 transport jet. They are members of FLAG and their missions are sanctioned by the intelligence community.
