The owner's mine has been taken over by a group of bandits and he needs the A-Team's help to take it back and retrieve the stolen diamonds.
The team arrives in the country and meets with the mine owner, who informs them of the bandit's leader, General Fululu, who is known for his brutal tactics. The owner offers them a sizable sum of money to retrieve the diamonds and get his mine back.
The A-Team quickly gets to work, scouting out the mine and the surrounding areas for any information they can gather. They soon discover that the bandits have a base nearby and begin to formulate a plan to infiltrate it.

A tense standoff ensues, with the A-Team using all their skills and tactics to disarm the bandits and get Precious to safety. The team ultimately emerges victorious, with the diamonds returned to the mine owner and the bandits brought to justice.
The episode ends with the A-Team departing the country, with Precious waving goodbye to her new friends. It's clear that the team has made a lasting impact on the young girl and has left a mark in the small African country.
