The Master Control Program (MCP) brought Kevin Flynn into the digital world because it recognized that he was a user with advanced hacking skills and believed he could help the MCP gain access to the Pentagon's computer system. The MCP hoped to use this access to take over the world's computer systems and achieve ultimate power. However, Flynn teamed up with Tron and other programs to defeat the MCP and restore order to the digital world.
