| The ``Fringe Team'' (an FBI agent, a mad scientist and his son) investigate a series of kidnappings in which the victim is hypnotized with red and green lights. In each case, the victim was about to solve some equation in their area of expertise when they vanished, and they are each a bit crazy when they reappear. The latest kidnapping is different in that the victim is a young music prodigy. It turns out that his musical ability is sufficiently mathematical to solve the bad guy's equation, allowing him to pass through solid matter.
