A computer nerd creates a holographic "man" called "Automan" (AutomaticMan) and uses him (and his holographic car and a talking cursor) to help solve crimes.

To get a criminal, Automan assumes the guise of Mr. Otto a mobster who sets out to take over his business by getting all of his associates to defect to him.

A businessman goes missing in San Cristobal so Curtis and Roxanne are sent to find him. Walter finds out that others have disappeared and 1 was found dead so he and Auto rush down to warn them.

Walter's friend, Frank Cooney, is killed by fellow cops who steal from an armory. However, they make it look like he was the thief so Walter does his own investigation to prove otherwise.

Sid Cole, record producer and manager of his daughter's up-and-coming rock band "Sweet Kicks", is blackmailed. An explosion rocks a music video shoot and it is down to Walter and Automan to find out who is behind this.

Automan goes undercover as a stripper in a ladies-only strip club. Exotic dancers Gary Baxley and his partner Stanley are suspected of making wax impressions of the owners' keys and burgling their houses when they are out.

Walter, Automan and Roxanne travel to an exclusive Caribbean resort called Club Ten. Roxanne gets a panicked message from her missing writer friend. They find they are all caught up in a diamond-smuggling racket.
