"It's a known fact that 80 decibels of rushing water is one of the most pleasing sounds known to mankind." "On the other hand, 10 and a half days at sea is enough water for anybody." "Thornton is here to make the pickup... personally." "And after waltzing my way out from behind the Iron Curtain," "San Pedro harbor looked like a little piece of paradise... but not for everybody." "You know, seaweed's generally not considered to be the best lure for fishin'." "Yeah, I know, but good lures cost a lot of money." "What you need is somethin' that reflects." "Like a gum wrapper." "Come on." "You know, my grandfather used to say," ""You just gotta think like a fish."" "Yeah, but does it work?" "Well, ultimately it's up to the fish, I think." "Not many girls your age are into sport fishing'." "Yeah, well, I don't fish for sport." "I fish for food." "There." "I mean, you know, I can't pay you." "Just catch somethin'." "Thank you." "All right!" "Hey!" "Tell your grandfather it works." "Mac!" "Hello, Pete!" "So, this is MacGyver's homecoming at last." "I'll get the men in position." "Mm." "Hi." "Hey!" "I pay for efficiency." "Impress me, Mr. Barrett." "Don't worry." "He's good." "I always worry." "And MacGyver is quite elusive." "Good to see you." "You, too." "And your cargo?" "Yeah, got all the names and the plans of the terrorists." "There ought to be a promotion in it for ya, Pete." "Save it for the car, okay?" "Expecting trouble?" "Well, you never can tell." "The East Germans are just a little bit hot over this one." "Nice to know my work is appreciated." "Uh-huh." "They yours?" "Nope." "Which one you want?" "Both." "You get that list out of here." "You sure?" "Now!" "Move!" "I don't believe it!" "You are an officer of the law." "I can tell." "What can I do for ya?" "Well, I'm being pursued by ter..." "Well done." "Get him out of here." "That's him." "No question about it." "Kurt Neilson, East German Intelligence, rank of colonel." "Huh." "Boy's been around." "All right." "Make copies, circulate." "Get word out on the streets right away!" "Yes, sir." "I'll get on it right away." "Search him... thoroughly." "The list's not on him." "Care to tell me where it is hidden, MacGyver?" "You know, I just don't seem to remember." "You see, Barrett," "Mr. MacGyver is a genuine patriot." "They can be remarkably stubborn." "But even a stubborn patriot like you can be, uh, persuaded to speak." "There are many methods I could use to get the information... but this is my favorite." "Hey, look, guys..." "I got this thing about needles." "Here's an idea." "Why don't you just try drippin' water on my forehead?" "The old rubber hose and bright light trick." "The list." "Hypnotism?" "It's been known to work." "The KGB uses it all the time." "They got it down to a science." "Whatta you say?" "You have good veins." "Thank you." "Come on." "That burning sensation will disappear shortly." "The serum was specifically designed for you, MacGyver." "You are probably wondering about the effects of the injection." "The initial effect is disorientation, double vision, hallucinations." "I was kinda hopin' that's whatthiswas." "When your mind clears, in roughly three hours, the pain will become excruciating." "And if that does not convince you to cooperate, this injection has a side effect;" "it will kill you." "Of course, it can all be stopped with this antidote." "However, if you don't take the antidote within six hours, give or take a few moments, the serum is irreversible." "Six hours, and you begin to die." "Begin counting." "It's your choice, MacGyver... to live... or to die." "Being told when you're gonna die kinda puts a little pressure on you." "Don't try anything funny." "Enjoy." "All right, think, MacGyver, think." "Think, think..." "Not too much to work with in here." "And my arm's throbbing pretty good from that shot." "Come on, Mac, time's a-wasting." "I am sure this is a secure line." "Yes, Herr Kommandant, we have possession of the international courier." "No." "We'll have it very shortly." "One time when I was a kid," "I built a slingshot out of a couple of broken hockey sticks and an old inner tube." "And, you know, no matter how hard I practiced," "I just could never miss... my neighbor's window." "Problem withthisslingshot is, I only get one shot." "Can't you do anything without eating?" "I'm listening." "I'll hear him when he starts seeing things and yelling about them." "I had running water and an electrical socket nearby." "It could be a heck of a combination if I put them together right." "What's that?" "I don't know." "Sounds like water." "MacGyver!" "Neilson said he might try something like this." "Come on." "He broke my nose!" "He broke my damn nose!" "MacGyver!" "Alive!" "Take him alive!" "Find him!" "He couldn't have gotten far!" "Watch where you're going, you dumb drunk!" "I think we lost him." "He can't go far." "Keep searching." "He doesn't have to go any farther than the first phone to call the police." "He won't!" "By now, his mind is scrambled, confused for at least three more hours." "So you'd better find MacGyver." "Now!" "So you're gonna tell me you caught that fish all by yourself?" "I caught this fish, man." "I think you bought it at the market." "I did not buy this fish." "Come on, Lisa,Ican't even catch a fish." "Big fish, all right?" "This is gonna be dinner for me." "This is a beautiful fish." "You should see it." "I mean, it's gorgeous." "I caught it by myself, okay?" "Hey, look at that dude, man." "He's drunk!" "Check him out." "Yeah, that's him!" "Huh?" "Who?" "That's him." "I know him." "You're kidding." "What do you mean?" "I've never seen that guy before." "From the pier." "No, with the fish." "A dude looking like him is nobody to know." "No, no, he's okay." "He's a drunk." "He did me a favor." "No strings." "Lisa, that dude is messed up." "Look at him." "I owe him." "Hey, wait a minute." "Come on, you got enough trouble, Lisa." "Don't even get involved." "You're a runaway, remember?" "Come on, let's go." "I gotta." "Lisa, don't do it." "I-I just gotta." "Lisa, come on." "Hey, hey, you okay?" "Let's go." "Get rid of him, man." "Not ours." "It's me." "Remember, from the docks this morning?" "Remember?" "Remember?" "Fish." "Brain food." "You're one sick guy." "There's a policeman, but, uh, the last thing I need is a cop." "But I guess in your case..." "No!" "No police." "Please." "I'm gonna regret this." "I know I'm going to regret this." "Okay, up." "Stay." "Careful." "Soon he will have incidence of very acute pain, but there will be fewer hallucinatory episodes." "And a better chance of him remembering to call his people." "Not yet." "This way." "His memory will remain groggy for a while longer." "But as MacGyver approaches death, his mind will clear." "He will gradually begin to remember." "He will realize that I hold his life." "I hold him as on a leash." "MacGyver cannot escape." "Each second that ticks away cuts him like a knife." "Careful." "He must come back to me" "This is it." "if he is to live." "I want you to put one leg through this window here." "Come on." "Okay." "Okay." "There you go." "There you go." "My burglar alarm." "Come on." "Here we go." "Okay, you all right?" "You're getting better, okay." "Now there's stairs here." "One step at a time." "Here we go." "He's out there." "Someone has seen him." "Find that someone." "Okay, in here." "Stay right there." "Okay, come here." "Right here." "It's not much, but it's mine." "You made it real nice." "I did the best with what I got." "You gonna be okay?" "Yeah." "Even got electricity." "See?" "Got it out of an old car in a wrecking yard." "My name's Lisa." "Lisa." "And you know me?" "What, have you got a screw loose or something?" "We met this morning." "You made me that great lure, remember?" "I caught a fish with your gum wrapper." "I don't seem to remember much of anything at the moment." "Mm." "Well, maybe some food will help." "You hungry?" "Yeah." "I could eat a..." "Fish." "Uh... let's see if you can, uh, take the bones out of this while I start the stove." "Hey, you're like me-- you make do with what you got." "Yeah, I guess I do." "You in some kind of trouble, Lisa?" "You mean, what's a nice kid like me doing in a rat hole like this?" "It is a long, dull story." "I'd like to hear it." "Well..." "I figure my dad, uh, you know, when he was a kid, he never had a punching bag, so he married one." "And you got caught in the middle?" "Of the target." "So when they both started on me," "I split." "The first two times I went to the cops." "They, uh, dumped me in some juvenile lockup." "It smelled like what those fish are gonna smell like in a week." "Nobody listened?" "Oh, uh... this social worker checked out my story." "So the judge tells my parents to get their act together and take me home, because the hall is not a good place for a vulnerable adolescent." "Home is better." "Home sweet home." "I think I get the picture." "So they got me home, and my dad got his act together, all right." "On my face." "Oh." "So you split?" "For good?" "For me." "And I'm hanging in there." "Look it, I got schoolbooks." "I'm gonna get a diploma." "I'm gonna make something of myself." "I don't know exactly what." "How about a success?" "Oh, yeah, right." "Yeah." "Right." "No, we're not gonna hassle Lisa." "We just want that guy she was with." "I think we got something." "Yeah." "A straight line to MacGyver." "Barrett... no excuses this time." "It's me." "What's the matter?" "It was a nightmare, I guess." "Are you all right?" "Watch where you're going, you dumb drunk!" "What is it?" "What can I do for you?" "My name's MacGyver." "I got back in the country this morning." "I, uh..." "I stashed the list." "The list?" "What-what list?" "They grabbed me." "They..." "I don't have much time." "You have less time than you think." "I came to tell you that there are three guys outside snooping around." "What's that?" "My burglar alarm." "What do they want?" "Me." "Check for another entrance." "Listen... do you have a small transistor radio?" "Yeah, I think so." "Good." "We're gonna buy some time." "What're you doing with that TV tube?" "Cooking up a surprise." "Hand me those jumper cables, will you?" "Remember, we want him alive." "What's going on?" "I'm trying to get us a running start, away from those guys." "How are you gonna do that?" "Well, when these jumper cables touch, an electrical surge is gonna hit that tube and cause an overload." "Perfect." "All right, let's see that radio." "This ought to get 'em up here in a hurry." "Let's go." "Hear it?" "Upstairs." "Come on, Lisa." "Come on." "What happened?" "I don't know, some kind of a blast." "Oh, no." "No, not me." "It's the only way out." "I hope you know what you're doing." "Me, too." "They're gone." "Hold it." "Nothing." "What're we gonna tell Neilson?" "Like the magician said, a little misdirection never hurt." "Hold it." "You're sick." "I'm not gonna leave you alone." "Lisa, the best way you could help me right now is to call Peter Thornton at the Federal Building." "Ask for the DXS." "Tell him MacGyver's at the old warehouse on, on, um, Tucker Street." "You got that?" "Yeah." "Tell him if I'm not around when he gets there, that the list is hidden in the base of the light standard where we met this morning." "Wait." "The light pole?" "The list?" "What does this mean?" "I-I did a job..." "for the government." "Oh, man, does this sound wild!" "It's important..." "real important, Lisa." "Will you do it for me?" "Yeah, I'll do it." "Where are you gonna be?" "I'll be at the warehouse." "Hopefully I've got enough time to find a cure for all my troubles." "Get outta here, will ya?" "Time is about up." "So it appears you lose." "The list is still hidden." "Only MacGyver knows where, and he is dying." "My superiors will have to accept the best result we could obtain." "Here is your payment, Barrett." "Count it." "All right, MacGyver, think." "Rope... a smoke alarm... sheets of plywood." "Yeah, it just might work." "No, this is not a joke." "This is an emergency!" "Look, just tell Peter Thornton that MacGyver needs help." "Look, I can't come in." "I just told you where he was." "Just get the message through, all right?" "The idea of a smoke alarm is to get people's attention." "Better hope it'll work on these guys, too." "What do you mean, the operator just got around to forwarding the message?" "There was no emergency code on it." "Well, there is now " " Code 101!" "I want every damned man we've got moving on that warehouse, right now." "It's really only MacGyver who loses." "Pity." "A remarkable man." "What is that?" "Sounds like a smoke alarm." "Check it." "Hi, guys." "Listen, uh," "I'm not feelin' too good." "You win." "I need the antidote." "Come down from there." "You bet." "Yeah..." "MacGyver!" "Those sirens are for you." "They sound like a dirge." "With the antidote gone, we can say..." "good-bye, MacGyver." "I win." "You don't even have the strength left." "Oh!" "What was he talking about?" "An antidote?" "It's something I need if I want to live through the day." "You've been poisoned?" "Is that what this is all about?" "What are you doing?" "The impact causes temporary molecular structural alignment in iron." "All of the ions run to the other end." "What?" "I just made myself a magnet." "Come on." "Stay... stay." "Come on." "Lisa!" "That's it?" "That's it." "I'm not even gonna ask what's in it." "Well, I'll tell ya." "It's a bargaining chip... worth a lot to a lot of people... including you." "I'm gonna talk to Pete Thornton about arranging a government scholarship." "That's great!" "It's great!"
