During the events of Airwolf: Season 3 Episode 6 Kingdom Come played by Stephen Parr

At the Maxitech Corporation Research and Development building, a group of people parachute onto the grounds including Tracey. They break into the building and steal a case of nuclear detonators and then get into a shoot out with Maxitech security. Sawyer shoots at Tracey, grazing her cheek with a bullet. The thieves manage to get away when the car chasing them crashes and flips over. The next day Michael Coldsmith Briggs III, Archangel, questions Sawyer about the incident and suggests it was an inside job. Archangel then tells Sawyer, the FIRM will be taking over the investigation. Lydia tells Archangel, Stringfellow Hawke and Dominic will arrive shortly. They arrive and Sawyer makes a comment about Hawke and Dominic working for the FIRM. On their yacht, Tracey gets upset with Sawyer for shooting her and tells him she doesn't trust him. They talk about Sawyer's plan to use Caitlin O'Shannessy in order to get Airwolf. He goes to Santini Air and tells Caitlin he wants to hire her to teach him how to fly a helicopter and she agrees to teach him. While she teaches him how to fly, Sawyer starts to flirt with her. Tracey and Sawyer argue again about him seducing Caitlin. She tells him she hates him and how she lets him use her. After a movie production ends, Sawyer walks up to Caitlin's trailer and tells her she was great. He shows her a bottle of Dom Perignon he brought and she asks him if he has been in a relationship before. He tells her he hasn't and she tells him she is willing to take the risk to date him and they kiss. They have dinner at the Beverly West. While they are dancing, The Man walks up and tries to get a dance with Caitlin. He is persistent to the point of insulting and pushing Sawyer. Sawyer grabs him by the arm and tells The Man to beat it. While they are having another lesson, Sawyer lands the helicopter and tells Caitlin to get out. She is grabbed by Tracey and put inside of a van and Sawyer turns on the Emergency Locator Transmitter on the helicopter. Sawyer calls Archangel and tells Hawke he has Caitlin and orders him to bring Airwolf to him. Caitlin is tied up in the bottom of the boat and a bomb placed on her. As Sawyer leaves, he tells her everything they did meant nothing to him. Hawke and Dominic pick up Sawyer and he tells them where to go after showing them a bomb which he places on Airwolf. Hawke and Dominic are forced to put the detonators, which where hidden in the trunk of a car at Maxitech, into Airwolf. Sawyer tells Hawke and Dominic the plan is to place the detonators in a plane he has waiting for him. Hawke lands Airwolf and the detonators are placed in a plane and Sawyer flies away in one plane while Tracey flies away in another. Sawyer arms the bombs on Airwolf and strapped to Caitlin, but Hawke and Dominic chase Sawyer and Tracey down in Airwolf and then shoots their planes down, Sawyer's first and then Tracey's.
