"Okay, MacGyver, fill it in." "In 25 years, we'll be lucky if we even remember where we buried it." "We'll remember." "[lN VOlCE-OVER]:" "My hometown had grown a whole lot in the years since I'd been back." "But coming home was still like reaching into a grab bag full of memories." "Some of them good, some of them not so good." "And you could never be sure which memory you were gonna come up with." "The decisions we make shape our lives." "When I was a kid, I made a bad decision about a gun and my life was never the same." "Now I was back, 25 years later, to follow up on a promise." "One I had to keep, no matter how much it hurt." "[WOMAN TALKl NG I N DlSTl NCTLY]" " How much did you get, MacGyver?" " Fifty-six cents." "That makes 3.42 with what we've got." " How much is a box of bullets?" " Four bucks at least."

"Now, the first time you don't pay, I'm gonna remind you a little." "The second time, I'll cut you." "Maybe I'll break something." "The third time you don't have to worry about, because you'll be dead, man." " Now, do you see how easy that is?" " Let him go." " Let him go, Spider." " Get off my car." "Let him go." "Now." " Run, Sean." " Come on, Danny." "You lay off Sean, you hear me?" "It goes for all of you." "You are dog meat, man." "That is my car you're messing with." "Danny, come on." "[GUN COCKS]" "I'll kill him!" "spider:" "Whoa, whoa, whoa." " Stupid little" " What?" " I could have nailed them." " Yeah, right." " You told me you were clean." " I am." "Don't give me that, Sean." "You've been hooked on crack since the first time you tried it." "I'm not using it, I swear." "I owe some money, 200 bucks." "Sean, it's me, Danny, remember?" "You can lie to your folks or the kids at school, anybody." "But not me." "I just saved your butt back there, man, but no more." "You wanna kill yourself, huh?" "That's fine." " Just don't expect me to watch." " Wait, Danny." " Look, you can't leave." " Why not?" "[EXHALES]" "Because you're the only friend I got."

"[LAUGHS]" "I was wondering when you're gonna blow into town." "Chuck, how are you doing, man?" "Oh, you certainly look healthy." "Yeah, well, I still like to eat." "Listen, I sent you and Neil a letter the day I hit the road." " I assume you got it?" " We got it." " You still wanna go through with this?" " We made a promise." "Nobody keeps kid promises." "Not 25 years later." "Look, Chuck, I'll go up there on my own if I have to." "It won't mean as much without you and Neil there, but I'll do it." "Just a minute." "Let me take care of business, huh?" "That looks good." "Why don't you wrap it up for me?" "I wish I could." "Problem is, handguns require a police permit." "CUSTOMER:" "I don't know, Chuck." "How long until I can take it home?" "Only takes about seven days." "You can have any rifle in the place you want, cash and carry." "No problem." "CUSTOMER:" "Well, what rifle do you recommend?" "CHUCK:" "Well, let's see." "We've got a good selection of semiautomatics here." "Any of them..." "No." "CHUCK:" "better deal, if you ask me." "Well, take this one here." "Semiautomatic." "Pulls a 30- or a 90-round clip." "Ultra-lightweight, micrometer sight, the works." "Nice balance." "Feels good." "Yeah." "Yeah, that's a nice piece of work." "I'll take it." "Put it on my account, will you, Chuck?" " Great." "I'll wrap it up for you." " Oh, that's okay." "I'll take it like this." "Let's go, son." "So, Chuck, tell me, how is the sporting-goods business?" "Don't start, MacGyver." "Everybody has a right to defend themselves." "If he doesn't buy it from me, he'll buy it someplace else." "That's original." "Did you come up with that yourself?" "[SCOFFS]" "What do you say we go up to Bell Lake and snag us a couple of pike?" "We can stay at Neil's cabin, it'll be just like old times." "Chuck, I didn't come back here to go fishing." "Look, I don't feel good about these guys." "Come on, Sean, it's over." "Just stay away from them." "Danny, you destroyed Spider's windshield, man." "He's not just gonna forget about it." "What am I supposed to do?" "Go to the cops?" "I didn't think so." "Hi, Dad." "Hi, Mr. MacGyver." " Dad said you were coming." " Danny?" "Wow, last time I saw you, you were a little kid." "Sure, six years ago in L.A." "I still remember that homemade volcano you showed me." " Oh, yeah." "Did you get it to work?" " We had to repaint the kitchen." "I don't think you've ever met Neil's son." "This is Sean." "Hey, Sean." "How you doing?" "I'm MacGyver." "Hi, Mr. MacGyver, it's good to meet you." " I gotta go, I'll call you later." " All right." "Bye." "I guess I'd better get to work." " It was nice seeing you." " You too, Danny." "Look, what happened out there that day with Neil and me, well, I never told Danny about it." "I don't want him to know." "It wasn't just what you and Neil did." "I was responsible." "Don't you get that yet?" "That's why we all have to go out there, together." "I don't know." "If you can talk Neil into it, I'll see." "Okay." "Thanks." "Excuse me." "I'm looking for Neil Ryder." "He's down the hall in the Property Room." "Should be back in a jiffy." " Oh, this darn thing." " What seems to be the problem?" "Oh, the darn pin that holds the ribbon spool's busted off." "I guess I should have given up on this old clunker years ago." "Oh, nonsense." "Let me have a go." "Now we'll trim it up a little bit." "There." "That'll hold it for a while, at least until you can get it fixed." "You know, there used to be a kid around here who could fix just about anything like that." "Used one of those pocketknives too." "Rigged up the darndest thing you ever saw to mow our lawn once." "How you been, Sergeant Olson?" "[LAUGHS]" "All right, that's it." "I'm getting sick of hearing about how they do it in L.A." "Chill out, Watts." "You know, you chumps would be nothing without me." "Come on." " Time to ride, Meat." " Come on, man." " We're gonna kill a guy over a car?" " Yeah, we are." "If we're gonna own this town, it's gonna take power." " Do you know how to get power, J. D.?" " No." "Fear." "[COCKS]" "[clicks]" "We're taking your car." "This is the city." "Mission City, Minnesota." "My name is Ryder." "I'm a cop." "I carry a badge." "My name?" "MacGyver."

"How you been, Mac?" "Good." "Can't complain." "You know, when I got your letter, it got me wondering if it was still down here." "Took me till just now to get up the nerve." "You know, sometimes I can't even remember what his face looks like." "I don't wanna go, MacGyver." "I don't either, Neil." "I have to." "MEAT:" "Maybe he went out the back." " No." "He's in there." "We wait." "When the man comes in from L.A. next Tuesday," "I want him to see I got this town in my back pocket." "There he is." "Let's go." "[MOTOR REWlNG]" "[TYRES squealing]" "Oh, no." "[GUNSHOTS]" "[screaming]" "Danny!" "[SlRENS wailing]" "All right, everybody back." "Come on." "Give us a break here, huh?" "Get back, please." "All right." "They shot the place up." "They almost killed Danny." " I'm all right, I'm fine." " Did you see who it was?" " Dad, what happened?" " Everything's fine, son." " Everything's all right." " You okay?" "Yeah, I'm fine." " You get a description?" "CHUCK:" "I saw a blue car." "An old four-door." "It's probably those same punks again." "What punks?" "Mac, we got a full-blown crack problem in this town." "Some hotshot from California rolled in about six months ago and took in some of the local kids to set up shop." "Come on, what's that all about?" "I've heard of these crack dealers franchising out to places" "like Kansas City and Seattle, but here?" "What--?" "Come on." "Towns grow up too, MacGyver." "You haven't had trouble with those punks?" " No, sir." " Come on, Chuck, we gotta fill out a crime report." "I'll call in a description of the car." "Look, we'll get some brooms and clean this up." " Come on, Sean." " Yeah." "Okay." "Danny, Danny, listen, man." "I'll do something." " I'll talk to them maybe, or something" " Oh, get real, Sean." "Those guys tried to kill me out there and they're gonna do it again." "You gotta tell your dad what's going on." "I can't." "What do you want from me?" " Do I have to take a bullet for you too?" " No." "Why don't you just take off?" "Disappear for a while." " Oh, sure, and then what?" " Look, I don't know." "Maybe they'll slip up and get arrested or something." "Yeah, that's it." "What if the cops get a tip on the new shipment that's coming in?" " They'll nail them." " What are you talking about?" "Listen, Spider's been talking about how his L.A. connection's coming in with some new stuff on Tuesday." "I could call the cops." "They'd catch him with the goods." "They'd have to lock them up, man." "We'd be in the clear." "It is a great plan." "Even if this plan works, what am I supposed to do" " from now until Tuesday?" " Just disappear, man." "Yeah, Bell Lake, you can hide out in our cabin." " Oh, sure, and what do I tell my dad?" " Tell him the truth." "I mean, we've been fishing up there since we could walk." " I don't know, man, it" " Danny, Danny, it's the only way." "It is, man." "Please, I swear this is gonna work." "All right." "I'll do it." "Great." "Listen, you're gonna need a key to the cabin." "I'll run home and get it." "Meet me in one hour up at the pump station behind the state hospital." "It's abandoned, you'll be safe there." "Okay." "Two thumbs up, buddy." "I still need Danny's side of it for the paperwork." " Hey, where are those kids, anyway?" " I'll get them." "[CROWD talking lNDlSTlNCTLY]" "Danny?" "[BOTH grunting]" " Wanna tell me what's going on?" " You wouldn't understand." "I understand this." "Now, what's going on?" "Those punks that Sean's dad was talking about?" "Been dealing to a friend, I got caught in the middle." "And you figure the best way out is to pick up a gun?" "Hey, nobody's gonna get killed." " I might need it to scare them off." " It never stops there, Danny." "You got a gun, things happen." "People die." "Why didn't you just go to your dad or Neil?" " I can't." " You can." "[sighs]" "Where's Sean?" "Look, this isn't your problem." "Just let me handle it, okay?" "Please?" "I can't do that, Danny." "We'd better go talk to your dad." "Come on." "[GRUNTS]" "[SOFT THUD]" "MACGYVER:" "Danny?" "Danny, don't." "[CLATTERlNG]" " Now what?" " Ah." "It's Danny." "He just ran out the back." "He took a gun." " What?" " Why would Danny need a gun?" "It's got something to do with those punks and your crack problem." " I think Sean's involved." " Oh, my God." "Let's get after them." "I'll put out an APB." "You gotta do it in the daytime with people around," "like they do in L.A." "Man, I don't know why I bought into you and your big talk." "I'm walking." "You run now and you are never gonna stop running." "If the cops don't find you, my people will." "But see, if you do it my way, you're gonna be numero uno in this town, man." "It's gonna all be yours." "Do you hear me?" "Yeah." "Okay." "Now, we find that schoolboy." "He's the only witness." "We cap him off, the cops can't touch us." "Yeah, what about the other one?" "[SCOFFS]" "We already own him." "[CHUCKLES]" "Let's get out of here." "Sean." "Buddy, let's take a ride." "Come on, hurry up." "[GUN clicks]" "spider:" "It's your lucky day, man."

"It's party time." "Sean." "Sean, where's Danny?" " I didn't want to tell them." " Sean." " You sold him out for this?" " No, they made me do it." "They were gonna cut off my fingers with a razor, man." "Danny is my best friend." "I don't think you have friends anymore." "You have sources." "Now, where is he?" "Where'd you send them?" "The old pump station behind the old hospital." "[sobbing] I didn't wanna tell them." "I didn't wanna tell them." "All right, settle down." "Calm down." "Listen to me." "Look, if Danny really is your best friend, now's the time to prove it." "Go find your dad." "Have him meet me up there." " You hear me?" " Yeah." " All right?" " Yeah." "All right, do it." "They could have him already." "Go." "There he goes." "Let's go." "[PANTlNG]" "[BULLETS CLATTER]" "CHUCK:" "This is so cool." "I still don't like this, guys." "What if we get caught?"
