Trapped in Hyperspace

Trapped in Hyperspace was Toonami's third Total Immersion Event. It was about SARA being attacked by a virus named Swayzak while traveling in hyperspace. TOM has to wrestle back control of the Absolution, save SARA, and prevent the ship from crashing into Earth.

Plot
Trapped in Hyperspace takes place over a five-day period. It aired September 16-20, 2002. One episode a day was shown during the block itself. Trapped in Hyperspace began when SARA guided the Absolution into hyperspace for a return trip to Earth, but shortly after going into hyperspace, SARA unexpectedly went offline due to a computer virus named Swayzak, who challenged TOM to regain control of the Absolution before the ship crashed into the Earth. TOM linked up to eradicate the virus from the ship's computer systems and regain control of the hyperspace system. Ultimately, TOM managed to regain control of all ship computer systems, and made his last link up to SARA's core systems to break Swayzak's hold on her directly. The maneuver worked, as SARA was freed, and TOM was reunited with SARA in the hyperdrive room. Upon his return to the bridge, SARA briefed TOM on the damage to the ship and reported that, in addition to the Absolution, Swayzak had infected several other vessels in the surrounding area; but failed to maintain control over the ships. After leaving hyperspace, SARA thanked TOM for breaking Swayzak's hold on her.
