Sayers is an employee of wealthy industrialist Carlton Harris. Harris uses his employee to test the extraordinary abilities of Jaime Sommers. Sayers is deliberately run off the road in front of Jaime as she is on her way home from the Ventura Air Force Base School. His car crashes down an embankment, and a fire erupts. Sayers watches Jaime as she uses her Bionics to free him from the car. He then pretends to be in too much pain to be transported. After she leaves to get help, Sayers makes an escape and contacts Harris to report the incident.
