From computer viruses to deadly acts of bioterrorism, team Scorpion puts their IQs to the test every Monday. Even with all that brainpower, Walter's genius squad might be thwarted by the best security America has to offer.

Next week, Happy (Jadyn Wong), Sylvester (Ari Stidham), Toby (Eddie Kaye Thomas), Walter (Elyse Gabel), and Paige (Katherine McPhee) will be tasked with springing the lock on Fort Knox. When an older gentleman entreats Homeland's best and brightest to test out the famed stronghold, the members of Scorpion will be just a wee bit skeptical. A huge pile of cash and an alleged promise that the government is behind them 100 percent, however, will be enough to make the heroes cautiously pick up the case.

If the whole ordeal wasn't suspicious enough, no one inside the base will know Team Scorpion is on the side of the angels.

"That's really bad because real guns [and] real security guards are going to try and kill us. It's Fort-freaking-Knox," Stidham told EnStars at WonderCon. "The whole episode is like, do they really have our backs? Do they really want us to test [the security] or are we covering something up? We don't really know. We reluctantly take the gig."

When Walter and Co. realize that the item they "stole" actually holds a dangerous secret, they will have to break in a second time. Talk about pushing your luck.

"It doesn't go smoothly, I can tell you that. Like everything else we do on Scorpion, [the situation is] possible but not probable," Thomas explained. "We almost die. No one's going to die at fort Knox, but it gets very close."
