At Stappleford Industries headquarters, Roan sneaks into the office of Lou Stappleford. She breaks into his desk and takes a document. As she is leaving she runs into Cole and he asks her what she was doing in Lou's office. She lies and they walk out together passing by a Security Guard. At the 22nd Annual Reno Air Races, the races start and Roan wins the first heat. Stringfellow Hawke and Dominic walk up to Roan and introduce themselves. Lou approaches Roan and tells her he lost something and he thinks she has it and she quickly walks away. Roan walks up to Hawke and Dominic and invites them to lunch. At lunch, Hawke tells Roan about himself, but she thinks he is telling her a line. Roan tells him and Dominic about her job and how much she enjoys flying. Lou confronts Roan and demands she give him the test data. They argue about the test data and Roan says she has to do what's right. Haver tells Roan, Lou is getting impatient with her and Morgan grabs Roan. She kicks Haver and Morgan throws her against the side of a building. Hawke sees them dragging Roan away and knocks both Haver and Morgan to the ground. Hawke asks Roan if she is okay and she storms off. As they pass by a carnival game stand, Dartman asks Roan and Hawke if they want to try their luck. They both play and win cymbal monkeys. Hawke and Roan go to dinner and she thinks he is still not telling her the truth about what he does. They dance and go back to Roan's hotel room and finds it trashed. Roan tells Hawke about the flight data she stole and she leaves with Hawke.
Hawke tells Roan that he and Dominic are going to take her to meet General Hillman so she can tell him about the data. Roan doesn't think Lou will do anything to hurt her, which Hawke disagrees with. She insists on racing and Hawke calls Michael Coldsmith Briggs III, Archangel, and tells him about the data Roan has. Roan takes Dominic and Hawke on a tour around the X-400 being displayed at the air show and describes its flaws. Hawke asks Dominic to get Airwolf and Dominic leaves to get it. Before the race, Roan shows Hawke the two cymbal monkeys they won that she is keeping with her in the cockpit. During the race, the oil line comes apart and sprays oil across her cockpit window. Hawke jumps into a plane and flies to help Roan. Hawke helps Roan land her plane by guiding her down. Lou flies by in the X-400 and shoots at Roan. Dominic arrives in Airwolf and shoots at the X-400. He lands and Hawke gets inside and they shoot Lou out of the sky. They land and find Roan standing next to the burnt out remnants of her plane. She tells Hawke when she was young she wanted to soar with the eagles and Hawke tries to comfort Roan and she tells him after she gives the government the flight data, she wants to hide out by herself. She tells him maybe after she will look for his cabin in the woods and they walk to Hawke's plane.
