With her identity changed in a witness protection program, Stevie joined a rock band and started her life over. Michael infiltrates the group by becoming their new lead singer.
Michael and Stevie find one of Greg's videotapes contains a single frame of binary computer code hidden among performance footage. Michael decides to investigate the band's producer, Barbara Bellingham, who has a master tape hidden in a safe.
