Default How do you ignore a data point?

Say my data set is
10, 15, 90, 12
I want to plot all the values but not connect/interpolate 90 as it is an
outlier.

How do I do this, I'm sure it's easy.

Many Thanks Julie

Make two series, one with the three good points, one with the outlier.
Connect the points in the first series.
