Given a choice between assisting the CIA or life in prison, a notorious hacker agrees to help the government and recruits a team of misfits to assist.

Notorious hacker Drew Reynolds is captured by the C.I.A. and given a proposition, work for them, or spend the rest of his life in prison. Agreeing on the condition that he can form his own team, he puts together a group of "throwaways", people deemed expendable, and seemingly the worst in the organization.
