Young computer expert Kevin Flynn is trying to put together conclusive evidence that his profitable work for the huge communications conglomerate ENCOM was appropriated by one of its chief executives, Dillinger, who then had him fired. When Flynn attempts to gain access to the computer, all communications are disrupted, causing several employees of ENCOM to lose touch with their programmes. Among them is Alan Bradley, who has been developing a secret programme code named TRON.
