It aired on February 25, 2002[1] to 2004 and is directed by Michael Kinney[2] The episodes, built to be educational with a plot, vary in their content-action ratio.
However, as the budget and length of the show increased, a number of recurring characters appeared, although the focus is still heavily on Sam.
Sam works in a white, windowless van parked in an anonymous city, which she hops around, trying to stop crime.
She then talks directly to the viewer once more, continuing to reflect, and wraps up the episode, usually drawing conclusions on the subject that the show was themed to.
The short documentary-like videos help give background information to the viewers, without Sam divulging a lecture on the topic.
Highlighted topics range from bugs, internal spies, codes, hidden cameras and stealth devices.
To prove her worth after failing the Armed Forces Black Ops training, she successfully enrolled with the National Espionage Taskforce.
She is quite eager to prove herself, making her an excellent agent; however, this same attribute also causes her to threaten security, as she tasks many unnecessary risks.
One mission, she is to break into an independent spy/thief's house, in order to prove or debunk the suspicion that his children are also becoming involved in the illegal trade.
