"When you think about it, I take on a lot of jobs nobody else would want." "The question is, why do I want them?" "I find myself asking these questions more and more." "And rationalizing answers with stuff like flexible hours, nice scenery, all-expense paid vacations in colourful Eastern European luxury resorts." "But the bottom line is, I like it." "I actually like getting into stuff that makes the old adrenaline pump." "And I get to meet some interesting people who've made some interesting career choices themselves." "Guten Abend." "Wie gehts?" "MacGyver." "Kareem." "Skyhook." "Ja." "Fantastisch moves, that one." "Yeah, this one too." "As soon as you deliver." "Everything is inside." "Thank you." "You've taken some risks." "So have you, my friend." "Oh, a drink?" "How they say, one for the road?" "No, thanks." "It's not that far, is it?" "No, the border is only 12 kilometres." "Halt!" "No, Herr MacGyver." "Do not move!" "Drop the gun!" "Esel!" "Ich bin ein Soviet officer." "Bitte?" "Und wir muss gehen zu dem Hause, bitte, for es gehe eine Freunde sind there in the appelsuss, or in der Flugplatz." "Und sie ist meinen Frau." " Schnell!" " Jawohl!" " Waiting for a bus?" " Bannister?" "What the heck?" "Where'd you come from?" "New director of operations sent me in." "Backup." " New director?" " Oh, you're gonna love him." "I can hardly wait." "We're now 90 percent home." "Just down this hill and a couple of kilometres due west." "Brakes seem to be fading." "Correction, nonexistent!" "Yeah, we're going to the border, all right." "In pieces." "Unless this emergency..." "Nothing." "I think we're out of fluid, Mac." "Sorry, pal." "Some backup, huh?" " No, no, no." "There's gotta be a way." " What are you talking about?" "There's gotta be a way to stop this thing." " Without brakes?" "Oh, yeah." " With brakes." "Come again?" " Pop the hood." " What?" "Just pop it." "What the hell are you doing?" "Well, there's still gotta be some fluid in the power steering, right?" "Maybe I can pump it into the brake cylinder." "Sure that'll work?" "No." " How far are we from the border?" " Bottom of the hill." "Three kilometres." "All right, pump the brake!" "Pump the brakes!" "Mac, my boy," "I think you did it." "We got brakes!" "Piece of cake!" "There you are." "Ever think about making a living as a hood ornament?" "So how's the wife?" "She's fine." "Just fine." " Good morning, Mr MacGyver." " Fritz." " Good trip?" " Yeah, it was kind of a rest cure." "I brought you something, special delivery." "Lieber Gott!" "There's a letter in there too for you." " You..." "You saw my sister?" " Yeah, she's fine, Fritz." "So are the kids." "You can tell by the pictures there." "But how?" "Well, I was just passing through East Berlin, and..." "Mr MacGyver thank you." "Whoops." "Oh, hi, Mac." "Why don't I meet you down the hall, huh?" "No, no, you don't understand." "This is Ingrid." "Well, I certainly hope so." "Ingrid, this is MacGyver, the fellow I was telling you about." " He fixes brakes." " How do you do, Mrs Bannister?" "Not well, if you intend to take him away from me again." "I'm sorry about that, but..." "Well, he's under contract." "I'm only part-time here." "We were barely home from our honeymoon and they took him away for a whole month." " Yeah, I remember." " And now he's back," "I've hardly had time to say hello, and already your new director's asking for him again." "Listen, why don't I see if I can stall him a bit?" "What did I tell you about MacGyver?" "Why don't you two get back to what you were doing." " Send him in." " He's on his way, sir." "Well, I'll be dipped." "The new executive director." "Peter, congratulations!" "They couldn't have made a better decision." "Thank you." "I appreciate it." "On the other hand, maybe condolences would be more appropriate." " I heard they were waiting for you." " Oh, yeah, yeah." "Well, you know, I made it." "Thanks to Craig Bannister, actually." "I owe you for that." "Well, I sent him because I was sweating for you." " Why?" " Sit down." "I didn't know this until they gave me this job, but we have lost four top agents in the past seven weeks." "Four." "Somebody out there knows exactly what we're going to do before we do it." " So..." " No." " What?" " No." " Mac, you'll be working with Bannister." " I don't care." "The answer's still no." "I just found myself a great new house down on the beach, and I'm in the middle of moving in." "Mac, nobody knows better than I do that you have really earned some serious R and R, but..." "Boy, am I glad you said that." "Pete, you're gonna be the best darned director this place ever had." "And as soon as I'm settled in," "I'm gonna have a barbeque in your honour." "Mac, this is important." "Mac, you gotta hear me out." "Will you just, for one single second, stop and listen to what I'm saying?" "Pete, got any use for an old truss?" "Nice." "Listen, I thought we could rely on each other." "I thought we were friends." "Are friends, Pete." "Were friends." "Shall be evermore, after my vacation." "Let me spell it out to you." "V-A-C-A-T-I-O-N." "Yeah, but you're not on vacation, are you?" "You're working." "Look at you." "You're working your tail off." "Getting ready to move to some crummy seaside shack." "Shack?" "!" "Pete, you have no taste." "None." "Mac, for the love of heaven, give me a break, will you?" "This is serious!" "Look, I've come up with a plan." "It's a little risky, but I think that we can set a trap and catch this mole." " Good traps have good bait." " Well, we've got good bait." "A Russian defector who worked in the GRU and can ID most of the key Russian agents by sight." "Well, there you go, Pete." "You don't need me." "Yeah, well, a defector is still a defector." "What if ours turns out to be a double agent?" "A plant?" "Mac, I need someone I can trust to stay on top of it." "You have got a whole file full of people on salary who can do that." "Yes, and any one of them could turn out to be the mole." "Mac, I need someone that I know is clean." "Look, you're talking to a brand-new and very nervous director of operations." "We've lost four very good agents, and a key piece of our national security is starting to look like Swiss-damn-cheese." " Now, come on." " Mr Thornton, you're wasting your time and mine." "And I have no interest to work with someone who has to be begged to do his duty." "Viktoria, I told you to wait." "I know what you told me, and I am tired of waiting in the car." "This is your defector?" "Right." "Viktoria Tomanova, meet MacGyver." "Mr Thornton, you absolutely cannot do this." "You're turning this woman into a human target." "Mac, I don't have a choice." "I think that is my choice, Mr MacGyver, and I have made it." "My mother still would be in Soviet gulag if it hadn't been for a man like Mr Thornton." "I owe a debt, Mr MacGyver, and I intend to pay." "Pete." "Excuse me, will you?" "Now I've done things for you, and I'm more than willing to do more, but risking this woman's life is not one of them." "This is useless to talk to this bolvan." "Let us go." "Okay." "All right." "But, Mac, could you do me one small favour, then?" " What?" " There's a reception tomorrow." " Oh, Pete..." " I know you don't like parties, but this one is major." "It's an International Peace Through Science Symposium, and there's gonna be a huge Soviet delegation there now." "Headquarters wants everyone from our side to be present." "Could you just do that for me?" "It's important." "I'll give it some thought." "You will?" "Okay." "Thanks." "John Wayne would not have been afraid." "Bolvan?" "Welcome to the Peace Through Science Symposium." "I do hope you enjoy yourself this evening." "May I offer you some champagne?" " Thank you." " You're quite welcome, sir." "Good evening." " Good evening, Robert." " Be right with you." " Champagne, sir?" " Don't mind if I do." "Good clarity." "Nice legs." "Good bouquet." "Go with a nice fish." "You're losing weight, Robert." "What is it?" "Thanks." " No, no, no, I don't believe it." " Oh, stop it." "Don't say a word." "Will either of you please tell me what is so amazing?" "MacGyver." "I mean, this man's idea of black tie is a dirty shoelace." "Definitely not into formality." "Then the answer is simple:" "A woman." "No, the answer is Pete put the arm on me." "It must have taken a whole lot of drugs and torture." " Will you stop it?" " Ignore him, MacGyver." " You're beautiful." " Thank you." "I needed that." "So where is the boy anyway?" "Well, he said he was gonna be a little late." "Yeah." "He may be late, but he sure knows how to make an entrance." "Well, well, well." "Why is everyone looking at me?" "Well, maybe because you're beautiful." "You're so gallant and nice." " Who is she?" " Oh, society, old money, that sort of thing, you know." "I don't know how Pete finds them." "I'm ready." "Then let's circulate." "Mike, Barry." "How you boys doing?" " What's this?" " Not word one." "It's rented." "You company guys are all alike." "Thanks for coming." "Oh, yes, ultra high-pitched sound." "It's used for cleaning jewels and coins." "Or the family silver." "Does everything in America have to do with money?" "Well, actually, it's also being developed for use in mining and excavation without pollution or lung damage." " I'm sorry." " No, it's a fair question." "Did you finish packing, Mr MacGyver?" "Actually, it defeated me completely." "You must learn not to be defeated so easily, Mr MacGyver." "And now, if you'll excuse us." "Who is it?" "His name is Anton Vissarionovich Lem." " GRU." "Special operations." " Which means?" "He kills people." "Lem, huh?" "Here as part of a delegation to a peace symposium." "Wonderful." "Wonderful." "Maybe we should get you out of here." "What do you say, huh?" "Please, keep your hands from me." "Pete, you wanna help me on this?" "I think he's right, if you don't mind, Viktoria." "I'm in no danger." "He doesn't know me." "I only know him from his file." "I was in Records." "Ladies and gentlemen, may I have your attention, please." "Thank you." "My dear friends," "I welcome you this evening, and may God bless you." "On behalf of the Committee for Peace and Progress Through Technology..." "Progress, but not perfection." "Let's see, on a more serious note here..." "In the hope that faith and science can unite for peace, let us take a moment to bless this dream." "This dream that must unite this divided planet, and re..." "Excuse me." "Remember, we are the animal that dreams." "A dream which we all share, which we must protect and defend." "Get her down!" " Take it easy." " What are you doing?" "Glasses..." "Tony." "Jeff." " Which must unite..." " What is it, drugs?" "I don't know." "Something hit him, that's for sure." "Reverend." "Everyone, listen, please." "We want you to clear the room, but don't leave the building." "We may have some questions." "Reverend." "You just tried to kill someone." "Why?" "Animal that drinks that must defend..." " ... and protect..." " That's it." "Someone told you to use the gun." "Who?" "They..." "They..." "They told me..." "They." "Who's they, Reverend?" "What is it?" "There's gotta be a doctor here somewhere." "He's having a heart attack." "Let's go." "He's dead." " Hey, hey, hey." " Left inferior artery." "Rightio." "Blockage of left inferior artery as well." "Arterial embolism thereby indicated as cause of cardiac arrest." "And away he went." " You have to make jokes?" " What do you expect, a tap dance?" "Who's your sensitive flower?" "Ed, you've been down here too long." "Craig, there's no need for you to watch this, you know." " No, Mac, I can handle it." " Excuse me." "Egg roll." "Want some?" "Excuse me." "Okay, I'll be out in the hall." "Damn civilians." "Ed, you got any idea on the nature of this thing?" "Fatty tissue." "Nature of blockage unknown." "Complex mass of fibrous tissue, analysis to follow." "Can I get a sample?" "Be my guest." "Why?" "Well, it's not cholesterol, it's fibrous." "So, what is it?" "Oh, I'll probably be able to tell you that tomorrow." " Unless you're in a rush." " I'm in a rush." "You're always in a rush." "You realize that this is bending the regulations just a little?" "Ed, who rebuilt your sound system?" "You have a point." "You also have a sample." " Thank you." " Anytime, MacGyver." "Oh, there's some localized sternal trauma too." " So, what'd you expect to find?" " I don't know, but I hate coincidences." "What coincidence?" "The man had a seizure and dropped dead." "The man was a psychologically stable, highly respected clergyman who suddenly pulls out a .9 mm and starts..." "Blasts away." "Six shots at someone whose identity is top-secret." "Our defector." " Well, was he political?" " Reverend Mather?" "As far as we can tell, the last political stand he took was against Pontius Pilate." "We checked back till he was an altar boy, and he was an altar boy." " The man was clean." " Until he started shooting, and then had the world's most convenient heart attack." "Now, wait a minute." "How can you cause a heart attack on demand?" " You remember Brudin?" " Yeah." " Out of Belgrade?" " Yeah, that's the one." "Air bubbles injected into the arteries." "Nobody injected anything into Reverend Mather." "I mean, he was up there with 100 people watching." "Yeah, well, that makes it harder, but six, two and even, somebody killed him." "While he was trying to kill our girl." "Which brings us right to it." "Somebody leaked." "Somebody set her up." " How is she now?" " Angry." "Scared." "I'm gonna put her in a safe house until we get some answers." "She did give us Anton Lem." "How was someone able to use Mather like that and then kill him?" "I'm working on that, guys." " May I come in?" " Please." "Thank you." "You haven't finished packing yet." "I thought Peter Thornton was gonna tuck you away in a safe house." "He did." "But I told him that I would not be able to remember anything" " unless he brought me here." " Remind me to thank him." "The last time I was here, I was very rude." " I came to apologize." " No, no, no." "That's not necessary." "Oh, yes, it is necessary." "You saved my life." "The Chinese say if someone saves your life, you're in debt to them forever." "Strange folk, the Chinese." "They also call their beautiful children ugly for fear the gods will punish them for the sin of pride." "This is true?" "If we were in China," "I'd be obligated to call you the ugliest woman in the world." " Are you a chemist?" " Chemistry." "I dabble." "What is "dabble"?" "Well, in this case, it might just prove that Reverend Mather was murdered." "I thought the heart..." "Oh, I understand." "The heart didn't stop." "It was stopped." "But how?" "I found adipic acid in his blood and fatty tissue." "I don't understand." "Let me show you." "Adipic acid in a compound including hexamethyline diamine." "Now let's see." "Now, the solution also contains a certain amount of iron particles." "What I'm gonna do here is activate a magnetic field, and turn the chemicals into nylon." "Good for ladies' stockings and clogging the arteries of a kind old man." "Of course." "He was a weapon that failed." "And he was eliminated." " Viktoria, this guy, Lem..." " Of course." "That is what he does." "Kills." "MacGyver, Lem we know but there may be others." " Any idea who?" " No." "I just have a feeling." "I said before I'm not afraid." "I lied." " Was it that terrible a day, dear?" " I've had better." "Because of that crazy man, Mather?" "I don't have a lot of sympathy for a man who could have killed you." "Well, MacGyver thinks he was used." "Set up." "And then killed." " He had a heart attack." " Well, Mac thinks it was induced." " No kidding?" "How?" " I don't know." "He's working on it." "MacGyver is a remarkable guy." "You're lucky to have him as a friend." "Yeah." "I'm even luckier to have you as a wife." "Are you changing the subject?" " I thought you had a hard day." " I did." "So I need a lot of comforting, loving care." "All right, turn over." "Oh, you're the best thing that ever happened to me." "You know that?" "All that time I was in Europe, I kept remembering our honeymoon." "Like a dream." "You were all I could think about." "It's not a dream, sweetheart." "Not a dream at all." "Not between us." "I love you, honey." "I know you do, Craig." "And it was such a special honeymoon." "Teaching you to trust me, believe me, in everything, and you do." "That's why I want you to tell me exactly who MacGyver suspects of killing Reverend Mather." " And how." " You know Mac." "He can't let a puzzle alone." "He told me the Tomanova woman spotted a GRU hit man at the reception." "Who?" "Name of Lem." "Anton Lem." "We have him in the files." "If we can figure out how the Reverend was taken out, tie it to Lem, we have some key pieces." "But I can tell you who's behind it all." " Who?" " Two people." "Viktoria Tomanova and MacGyver." "Mac?" " Behind killing?" " It's true." "And, Craig?" "Yes?" "You have to kill them." "Yes." "Yes." "Kill them both." "This is Lem." "When will you be ready?" " Now." " Good." "MacGyver just left." "When?" "Where is he?" "He went to the science fair reception hall." "Good." " And the Tomanova woman?" " She's there too." " Excellent." " So we'll move tomorrow?" "No, tonight." " But what about Bannister?" " He's never been more ready." "Good." "I'll have him dressed in 20 minutes, and I'll meet you in front of the reception hall." "And, Lem?" "There must be no mistakes this time." "I want them both." "It was very much like a dream, MacGyver, to think that only the other night I was here wearing that beautiful dress," " feeling like a..." " Queen." "Yes." "I know it sounds foolish, but even loyal party members have their fantasies." "I think you've earned yours." "You wished me to see the film." "It's a tape, actually, of what happened here." " And, hopefully, how it happened." " Ladies and gentlemen..." "Now just take a look at this and tell me if you recognize anybody," " besides Lem." "All right?" " All right." "I welcome you this evening, and may God bless you." "On behalf of the Committee for peace and progress Through Technology..." " What is that?" " Did you hear that sound?" "progress, but not perfection." "I have heard it somewhere before." "All right, listen to it again, and concentrate." "Oh, it's very close." "On behalf of the Committee for peace and progress Through Technology..." "I have a head like a rock." "All right, all right, just stay cool and calm about this." " You trust me?" " Yes." "To do what?" "I've got an idea." "I just need something interesting for you to look at." "That's not bad if I can add to it." "Oh, yeah, perfect." "A little adjustment and we'll be in business." "Isn't this the prettiest little thing." " Are you trying to hypnotize me?" " No, I'm not trying to hypnotize you." "I just want you to relax your mind so that half a memory can come to the surface, all right?" "Okay." " I trust you." " Good." "Almost." " Kiss me." " What?" "Kiss me." "Okay." "No." "Kiss me." "Now I trust you." "Good." "Let's go." "Craig, you know that four of your men have been killed recently." "Damn right, I know." "Now you're going to get the two people who killed them." "MacGyver and Viktoria Tomanova." " Are you ready, comrade?" " Perfectly." "Craig, it's time now." "They're inside waiting for you." "This is a risk." "It is necessary." "The Tomanova woman saw me." "She obviously did not remember, but at any moment she could identify me." "All right, now I want you to relax." "I'm gonna throw some words out at you, and I just want you to respond." " Don't even think, okay?" " Okay." "Moscow." "Cold." " Thornton." " Escape." "America." "Freedom." "Noise." "Dizzy." " Mather." " Puzzle." "MacGyver." "A dream which we all share, which we must protect..." " Lem." " Killer." "Death." "Bannister." "Worried." " Ingrid." " Wrong." " What?" " Somehow the name is wrong." " What, Bannister?" " No, what's maiden name?" " I don't know." " There is something." "All right, wait a minute here." "Picture her face, her walk, her clothes, in a totally different place." "I remember the building." " Where?" " My office at GRU headquarters." "I saw her in uniform!" " What kind?" " Red Army." "It was years ago, but..." "But it was her." "She still seems so young." "A girl..." " ... but she's army intelligence." " Army intelligence?" "Ingrid?" "MacGyver, she was chosen." "Designed to seem as a little, young American girl." "Innocent." "But she's not innocent." "She's..." "What do you say, lethal." "She's perhaps more dangerous than Lem because she looks so fragile." "All right," " then she's the mole." " Not exactly, MacGyver." " Craig?" " You're the traitor, Mac." "You and that Soviet spy." "Between you, you've killed four good men." " He's the mole?" " And doesn't know it, of course." "But actually, Mac, you have just been selected to be the mole, and you will be executed." "Pete Thornton will be heartbroken, shattered." "He might even resign, making room for Craig." "All right, dear." "Now, Craig!" "Hold it, Mac!" "Put the gun down." "Viki, no." "Craig you know it's not me." "You know it's her, Ingrid." "She ran you, man." "She used you." "You're the traitor." " You and that Soviet woman." " Craig, listen to me." "Look at me." "You pulled me out of East Germany." "I covered you in Burma." "We ran the Panjuk together." "And we got out together." "Together." "It's useless, MacGyver." "For four weeks on our honeymoon, he was programmed every day." "He's ours for good." "You wanna bet?" "Take a look at what's going on here, lady." "No." "Oh, yeah." "He's still mine, MacGyver." "Oh, Mac!" "Oh, my God!" "Viki, get his shirt open." "His heart isn't damaged yet." "If I can get electric current through his system, it'll break the magnetic field and counteract the clotting." "All right, Viki, move away." "Craig!" "Craig!" "Craig!" "Fight it!" "Fight!" "Come on." "He's breathing." "Come on, Craig." "Mac, what are you doing?" "John Wayne could not have done it better."
