Complete story — includes the ending

The A-Team are hired by a wealthy businessman to rescue his daughter who has been kidnapped by a group of terrorists who are now demanding a large ransom. Hannibal assures the team that the job will be "a piece of cake", but things turn out harder than they look when they find that the girl is reluctant to be saved because her boyfriend is one of the kidnappers, and her father only wants her saved to maintain his public appearance. In the end, the A-Team saves the girl, stops a terrorist group and donates the money to the daughter. When Hannibal finds out they've been double-crossed by their client, he tells him "we're like socks. You can put us through a rough wash once, but you'll never use us again."
