What Season 2 of The A-Team

Season two picks up where season one left off. The A-Team remains a group of fugitives wanted by the government, earning a living as soldiers of fortune in Los Angeles. Colonel Hannibal Smith leads the team, alongside Face, Murdock and B.A. Baracus. They take on cases for honest people being blackmailed by loan sharks, con artists or local power brokers when the police can't or won't step in. Before accepting, they put the client to a test to rule out an undercover agent. Meanwhile, Colonel Decker is hot on their heels, and the team must always stay one step ahead. The enemies change with every episode, from crime syndicates to horse traffickers.
