People barely alive. Gentlemen, we can rebuild them, we have the technology. We have the capability to make the world's first Bionic Man & Woman.
"Steve Austin, astronaut, a man barely alive. Gentlemen, we can rebuild him, we have the technology. We have the capability to make the worlds first Bionic man. Steve Austin will be that man. Better than he was before. Better. Stronger. Faster." Follow the adventures of Steve Austin, cybernetically enhanced astronaut turned secret agent, employed by the OSI, under the command of Oscar Goldman and supervised by the scientist who created his cybernetics, Rudy Wells. Steve uses the superior strength and speed provided by his bionic arm and legs, and the enhanced vision provided by his artificial eye, to fight enemy agents, aliens, mad scientists, and a wide variety of other villains
After fully recovering from her near fatal bout of bionic rejection, Jaime Sommers, the first female cyborg, is assigned to spy missions of her own. A spin-off of the popular seris 'The Six Million Dollar Man'.
Nine years after his retirement from the government, Colonel Steve Austin must again team up with Jaime Sommers to stop a terrorist group. Complicating matters for Austin are his estranged son Michael, who struggles for his father's acceptance as he graduates from flight school, and Jaime, who must cope with her and Steve's past.
Oscar Goldman is reluctantly attending a gala banquet at The Pentagon to celebrate the upcoming "World Unity Games" and loudly complains to OSI agent Allan Devlin that he now has to practice détente with former mortal enemies in the era of ''Glasnost#Glasnost and Gorbachev''. Also at the gala, Steve Austin is nervously preparing to marriage proposal to his love interest Jaime Sommers (The Bionic Woman) (a secret of which his colleagues all seem to be aware). Just as he is about to ask the question, the building is put on alert when a masked person infiltrates the building, breaks into an office, and steals top secret information from the computer system. In the ensuing escape, several guards are thrown against a wall and Oscar is thrown out of a window by the masked person - who seems to be a bionic.
Jaime Sommers (The Bionic Woman) is counseling OSI agent Kimberly Harmon, who was severely traumatized on her last mission and begs Jaime for help getting out of the OSI. Jaime informs Oscar Goldman that Kimberly is unfit for an upcoming mission and needs time to heal. On the way to meet her fiancé Steve Austin (character) at his boat, her bionic ear malfunctions, greatly amplifying the sounds around her and causing her to wince in pain. The two discuss the plans for their upcoming wedding. Later, while playing an bionically-intense racquetball game with Steve, Jaime's right hand appears to be giving her trouble, allowing Steve to win for the first time. The next evening, her hand pain begins to worsen and Steve takes notice. That night as Jaime lays immobile in bed, someone replaces one of the computer chips in her bionic right arm with a new one labelled "Phase 2".
