Complete story — includes the ending
Both Hawke and Santini are injured after a botched stunt in a biplane. Hawke injures his arm but Santini fares worse, injuring his back and is bed-ridden. At the hospital, Hawke is informed that Archangel has been taken prisoner by the criminal ex-Nazi Karl Kruger and is being held in an East-German compound. Mounting a rescue operation, Hawke must add Caitlin to the Airwolf crew to temporarily replace Santini. In a rush to train her, Caitlin does not perform well and nearly blows up Airwolf. Hawke realizes he cannot perform the rescue without Santini's experience, so he and Caitlin spring him against authority, from the hospital, and head to East Germany to save Archangel. Aiding them in the rescue is a female foreign spy also a former love interest of Archangel, but can she be trusted? (Note: Jan-Michael Vincent's arm was really broken in this episode due to a drunken argument with his then-wife, Joanne. In the previous episode, some shots show Jan's arm is severely swollen)
