In the next episode of "Scorpion," the team visits a medieval festival to celebrate Sylvester Dodd's (Ari Stidham) birthday.

A sneak peek into the upcoming installment titled "Faire is Foul" was just released recently and showed Team Scorpion namely Dodd, Walter O'Brien (Elyes Gabel), Paige Dineen (Katharine McPhee), Happy Quinn (Jadyn Wong), Toby Curtis (Eddie Kaye Thomas), and Agent Cabe Gallo (Robert Patrick) entering the renaissance festival together with flair in their medieval costumes. They are there to celebrate the birthday of Dodd who is a fan of that historical era as well as the board games that cover it. "This is ridiculous. Why did they put the parking lot so far away?" O'Brien complains to the group. They apparently walked a long way just to get to the place. Dodd defends the event and says, "No cars allowed on the site. This festival aims for total authenticity."

Dodd praises the festival's attempt to stay true to the time period but Quinn suddenly points at the distance and says, "Really? They had electrical transformers in the 1600s?" The birthday boy sighs in disbelief and tells the group, "Oh man, that wasn't supposed to be there." The team explores the place and takes part in the festivities. However, the revelry is cut short when a nefarious group robs a nearby police evidence locker which prompts the Scorpion team to go after the perpetrators.

In the last episode, Team Scorpion teamed up with British agent Gemma (Amy Louise Pemberton) to stop a satellite from shooting a laser beam at a nuclear facility. They had to track down the fob that was disposed in the sewer system. They finally retrieved the device and used it to neutralize the satellite. The British acquired the satellite and the team was paid for their services.

"Scorpion" season 4 episode 8 will air on Monday, Nov. 13 at 11 p.m. EST on CBS.
