In this episode of the Six-Million-Dollar Man/Fugitive hybrid, our hero Chuck Simon has rid himself of his Knight-Rider talking car and is taking the bullet train to New York, his reluctant giant telepathic dog Rommel in a cage the cargo car. Little does he know that the train has been hijacked by Stalker, a psychotic homicidal government operative with strange powers to change his appearance and body shape, who is out to kill his former team, once a deactivated covert group who are getting together at the invitation of The Complex to come out of retirement. Of course Chuck finds himself in the middle of the mess, and to top it all off, his ex-wife is also on the train. It's your typical action movie blood and gore scenario, and if you ignore the little flaws in Chuck's behavior (he really should change his name and stop demonstrating his powers so easily to strangers if he's on the run), then you can enjoy this mindless entertainment for what it is.
