"When I was a kid, my dad once took me on a trip to his favorite fishing hole." "It's a place called Sparrow Lake." "It's the most beautiful spot you've ever seen." "And whenever I get a little time off like now I go back and I try to find it." "But it's an out-of-the-way kind of spot and I always seem to get a little lost...and wind up at a crossroads." "How ya doin'?" "Good morning." "I just need some directions to Sparrow Lake." " Sorry, we're closed." " It's about two miles back down the road." "Uh, back at the crossroads." "Uh, where the road forks." "Of course." "My mistake." "Look, I know you're closed, but could I get some coffee?" " Uh..." " Yeah!" "I'm, uh, Kelly Nielson." "MacGyver." "Nielson Flying School?" "That was my dad." "Is my, uh, breakfast ready, cook?" "Yeah." "Comin' up." "Thank you." " Finish it." " Hmm?" "Or I will." "It was a little strong." "My name's Terry Andrews." "That is Tennyson." "Is that a great name for a short-order cook?" "Tennyson will fix your breakfast while you empty your pockets." "I guess this means I won't be goin' fishin'." "They, uh, they just came up here about two hours ago and took over the place." "Oh, I like girls that talk a lot." "Is that supposed to frighten me?" "Or excite me?" "Hey, hey, tough guy." "Tough enough to do you some damage, boy." "Hmm?" "Now, now, let's all try to get along." "I, uh, estimate we'll be gone in three hours and a quarter." "Now, you, uh, rent planes, you handle charters for fishing in Mexico." "Just consider us to be your customers." "And help us pass the time." "Huh?" " Don't!" " Dave..." "Oh, Davey, oh, Davey." "Davey." "Now Davey's not gonna do nothin'." "Are you, Davey?" "You're not gonna do nothin'." "You put your hands on that girl one more time, I'm gonna show you where that gun of yours is gonna end up." "Please, gentlemen, gentlemen, relax." "Ah, the fascination of war." "Some men can't kill." "Others don't mind." "Yeah, but for Buddy, it's as necessary as breathing." "I wouldn't give him any excuse." "They're here!" "Everybody out." "Yes!" "Ta da!" "Turk, Elias, you're forty minutes past ETA." "Problems?" "No way!" "Except you drive all night from Dallas with the great Stone Face." "He got nothin' to say and he don't say it." "Any trouble on this end?" "No, not unless Buddy went and got mean and shot and ate one of 'em." "You still got that humungous mouth, huh, kid?" "Got it all, buddy-o." "I got it all." "Oooh!" "You just might get lucky, sweetheart." "Turk, now!" "Now!" "Move it down." "Come on." "Storage van company in Dallas is missing their truck right now." "Curious mix of people around a man like me, MacGyver?" "Each one have their specialty... expertise." "I'd be willin' to bet you didn't win that in a raffle." "Everything's planned, timed, and executed perfectly." " Yo!" " There's a man in there!" "Yes, so there is." "But, like, uh, most inside guards, he has no key." "But you'll kill him." "There is that possibility." "Do it." "Sixty seconds." "You know, if you blow that door, you're gonna burn up all the money inside." "I can open it for you." "Nobody'd get hurt." " Heh, with what?" "Your teeth?" " Thermite torch." "Made out of what?" "That bicycle." "Some of the equipment you got over there, and, uh, uh, add a little iron rust, and I'll cut through that door like a hot knife through butter." "Come on, whatta you say?" "It won't cost ya anything." "A good plan is always flexible." "We got a couple of minutes to spare, I guess." "So...try." "A racing bike's made out of magnesium, light, strong, and flammable." "When you file it down to a powder, add some ferric oxide, your rusted iron, mix it, tamp it down tight, you turn an expensive bike into a torch." "Use a highway emergency flare for ignition, and you've got your hot knife through butter." "MacGyver, what do you do by profession?" "I, uh, move around." "Okay, I suggest you all move back for this." "Very good, MacGyver." "Very, very good." "Now a dead body brings buzzards, right?" "I ain't doin' no day labor." "I'm rich!" "Oh, no!" "MacGyver and Captain Yellow Streak'll do the digging." "You can watch." " You're all heart, buddy boy." " Well, I try." "Why's that bug you?" " You didn't have to kill him." " No...but I wanted to." "And if Andrews didn't see some potential for the rest of you, I'd waste you, too." "Start digging'." "Kelly said you were a MedEvac pilot, Dave?" "I was." "I'm not." "That's too bad." "I don't fly anymore." "I'm sorry." "I was shot down." "They held me prisoner for thirteen months." "Toward the end I was mostly digging graves." "Last one I dug was for me." "They tied my elbows behind my back." "And then they made me kneel at the edge." "I don't know how long I knelt there... waiting for that chrome-plated revolver in the back of my head to go off." "Then they started laughing." "When they were done..." "I know what that sounds like." "Just the truth." "You and Kelly are about the only ones who didn't just pass judgment." "Well, I can't stand in judgment of you, Dave." "I'm not perfect, yet." "Plantin' season's over!" "Ain't that something!" "Eight million dollaroonies." "Eight million, two hundred and eleven thousand, six hundred." "Exactly." "Buy a fresh ammo clip and a head start." "Cool it, Rambo." "After all, it's the second best thing goin'." "Don't touch her, man!" "Why?" "You got a claim?" "Nobody has a claim on me!" "Why, what would you do?" "Kill yourself?" "I'd do my best to kill you." "Only make it more exciting." "Ah, come on now, Buddy, now that's just bad taste." "Pickin' on girls." "Show a little class for a change." "Buddy!" "Buddy!" "Buddy, not now." "Sparrow Ridge, this is Baron Zero Seven Sierra, over." "That's it!" "That's our charter." "Answer him!" " Sparrow Ridge, this is Baron Zero Seven Sierra, over." " Answer him." "Come on." "Come in, please, Sparrow Ridge." "This is Baron Zero Seven Sierra, over." "This is Kelly Nielson, Sparrow Ridge.We've been expecting you, Zero Seven Sierra." "Over." "Kelly, I have an electrical short in the trim control.Can you make repairs or should I proceed to Nogales?" " Can you fix it?" " No." "Do you read me, Sparrow Ridge?" "Over." "Your 'no' came much too quickly." "Tell him to come down." "Kelly, do you read me?" "Over." "Tell him, now!" "Can do, Zero Seven Sierra." "Come ahead." "Over." "Roger." "See you in fifteen minutes." "This is Baron Zero Seven Sierra, out." "There's no guarantee I can fix it." "Uh, I may not have the parts." "Then a lot of people could get real hurt real soon." "How about you, MacGyver?" "Any ideas?" "I can jury rig a trim control switch." "You got a spare parts bin I can take a look at?" "Good man, MacGyver." "My schedule's assured with you around." "Show him." "You go with them." " I was just coolin' down, Terry!" " Take the beer with ya." "Go easy on the brew, Buddy." "You still gotta fly us outta here." "I just gotta take care of one thing before we split " " MacGyver." "Jury rig a switch?" "All Dave has to do is trace the circuit." "Yeah, I know that and you know that." "No one else seems to." " Can you fly that chopper out there?" " No." "But we keep it maintained." " You asked Dave, didn't you?" " Yeah." "You know it's not his fault." "He would if he could.It's just that he's been through so much." "Kelly, I'm not layin' any blame on him." "Seems like a nice guy." "It's been tough...for both of us." "See, Dave and I...we make allowances for each other." "And we work together pretty well." "At least until this happened." "Get started." "Does that fire truck work?" "Pumps run and all?" "Yeah." "But there are four men out there carrying guns." "Kinda tough odds." "Let's even 'em up a little bit." "What's that?" "Lateral cranial impact-enhancer." "Oh!" "He'll be out for a while." "Let's go to work." "Listen, we can't just sail out of here!" "What about Dave?" "And Al?" "That's no problem." "We'll take 'em with us." "You didn't happen to use fertilizer in that garden, did you?" " Yeah." " Good answer." "Got any left?" "Over there." "What're you doing?" "Some of the chemicals in fertilizer and the ether in the Engine Start will mix together to make a pretty good bomb." "It's a little recipe I use in emergencies." "I'll remember that." "Listen, why don't you go back in the cafe, bring Dave and Al when the others run outside." "I won't even ask why they're going to run outside." "Faith, my dear, faith." "Your, uh, your man says he's thirsty." " And what?" " And MacGyver's almost finished." "Come on!" "Come on, let's go!" "Kelly, you drive!" "Come on!" "I'll ride up top with MacGyver." "Let's go!" "Hurry!" "Come on, move it, Kelly." "Stop 'em!" "MacGyver, the water tank's empty!" "Dave, give me a light." " I got it, MacGyver." " We gotta slow 'em down!" "Quick, MacGyver, they're coming!" " Where's he goin'?" " Going around us." " Kelly!" "Where's Kelly?" " Dave, give me a light first!" "Drop it, MacGyver." "I'll have pieces of her all over the runway." "Charter flight's comin' in!" "You come with me." "Be very sensible." "Her life depends on it." "Maybe we should tie them up." "No, I got a better idea." " Come on, let's go." " Easy, big fellow." "Open the door." "Come on." "They'll freeze solid in there!" "Probably." "But if you're real nice to me, I'll let ya stay out here." " Open it up, Al." " Ah, I am crushed." "You heard the lady." "Open the door." "Get the food!" " Hi!" "I'm your charter." " How do you do, sir?" "Good to see you." "We sure are anxious to get to them fish!" "Well, that'll depend on how long it takes to make the repairs." "Hey, Dave, where's, uh, Kelly?" "I miss her smiling face." " Hey!" " Okay, guys, let's do it!" " Come on, killer." " Come on!" "Oh God, now what do we do?" " Oh, we're gonna get outta here." " How?" "Well, I don't know that quite yet, but I figure we oughta be pretty quick about it." "Kinda chilly in here." "Did you notice that?" "So, Kelly, tell me, how'd a nice girl like you end up with a place like this?" "I grew up here." "Dave used to work for my dad." "We kinda had something together before he went to Viet Nam." " And got taken prisoner?" " The telegram said he was dead." "Killed in action." "Is this some kind of hi-jacking?" "My plane?" "You need him for anything?" "Back up, Buddy, back up." "He can help Davey fix the plane." "The only thing I'd help is at your hanging." " Walt, they mean it!" " Fix it!" "And we'll just watch real close to make sure you don't make any mistakes." "So'd you ever think of leavin' here?" "I lived in Chicago once." "I even got married." "Six months were pretty good." "Then..." "Then -- two-and-a-half years with the two of us pretending." " What about kids?" " Kids need a home." "Not two strangers just trying to be polite with each other." "Oh, God, I do want kids." "We're getting there.I knew you would." "Have you any idea what Dave's been through?" "Yes, ma'am, I sure do." "Shot down." "P.O.W. Excuse me." "A lot of isolation, torture, told me he even dug his own grave one time." " I never heard that." " Yeah." "Ah, it doesn't matter." "What does is that he's still there." "Hiding." "I want to help him, but I just don't know how." "I wish..." "I wish for a lot of things." "So do I. How about a deal?" "I'll wish for you if you wish for me." "Okay." "First wish - that we get outta here." "No problem." "Start making' a second wish." " MacGyver, what're you doing?" " Water's kinda weird." "It's the only substance in the world that expands when it freezes." "Oh, inside the door lock!" "Yes, ma'am." "Keep loading." "The State Police should be guessing we're in Arizona by now." "I want to be in Mexico before they guess Sparrow Ridge Airport." " She's still rough." " Good enough." "Button her up." "Oh!" "Oh, gee, they really did a job on the radio." "You got the controls on this thing?" "Well, yeah, but, but why?" "Okay, now, we're gonna say goodbye." "We're gonna take off." "And that's all she wrote." "Let's go to the diner." "Come on." " No!" " Al, what're you doin'?" "They're not gonna leave us livin'." "They're gonna do away with us, too." "Just do what you wanna do." "I'm not goin' out like no whimpering' dog." "So whatever you're gonna do, man, you might as well do it here." "Hey, what's goin' on?" " What is that?" " Somethin's on it." "You guys, come on." "Come on!" "Get it!" "Move!" "We gotta get outta here." "Not with MacGyver on the loose." "If he tosses another firebomb when we're in the plane, we could fry." "He could be anywhere around here." "Then we better find him." "MacGyver!" "Where are you?" " Buddy!" " Turk with you?" " No." " He went over toward the moving van, but he's not there now." "I don't know where Turk went." "Did you check the road?" "Yeah." "Nothin'." "Did ya find 'em?" "Come on!" "They're not invisible." "I'll look around, brother." "Kelly!" "MacGyver!" " They're gonna get him sooner or later." " Yeah." "You and your friends are dead!" "MacGyver!" "I can't fly that chopper, Kelly." "You won't fly it and that's different." "Dave, I think she's sayin' this is one of those times when you go one way or the other." "And the rest of your life depends on which way you pick." "MacGyver!" "Here I am!" "Turk, is that you?" " Nothing." "Nothing." " Come on." "Come on, we're losin' it." "The whole plan is goin' to hell." "Warm up the plane, now!" "Come on." "We got the money, let's go." " Dave!" " MacGyver!" "I need your help." "I can't!" "I told you." "I can't!" "We gotta stop 'em." "Why?" "We're alive, and I don't give a damn about the money!" "They killed a man." "I give a damn about that." "Okay" "Hey, what's goin' on?" "MacGyver!" "I'll try and dump him off." "He's ridin' the controls." "Blow him away!" " Think you can handle this one, Al?" " Yeah, it'll be my pleasure." "Come along, let's go." "Move it!" "Move it!" "I'd better help the others." "I'll wish for you if you wish for me." "Gotta be careful what you wish for, Kelly." "It just might come true."
