The Greatest American Hero

In this feature-length pilot, a pair of strangers, liberal high school teacher Ralph Hinkley and right-wing FBI agent Bill Maxwell, have a close encounter in the Southern California desert one night with aliens who give our heroes a red superhero suit.

A call to defend his country's national security thwarts Hinkley's plans to spend time with Pam's parents, who are visiting from Minnesota.

Maxwell and Hinkley are in the midst of international affairs that could gravely affect the world.

Ralph and Bill try to unravel a case involving secret military plans, a Russian submarine and the kidnapping of Rhonda's mother.

Maxwell enlists Hinkley's help to prevent his wartime buddy - now a jaded cop - from turning crooked.

When one of his students is suspected of arson, Ralph enlists the help of Pam and Maxwell to prove the boy's innocence.

Ralph revs up his unpredictable super powers, racing to Pam's rescue when her promotion to junior law partner becomes a death sentence.
