" Good morning." " Good morning." "Take a look at what our eye in the sky has to say." " What are they calling her?" " Henry." "Two hundred miles across, and we're headed right down his throat." "I think our passengers might object." "Not exactly vacation weather." "Make a course adjustment and see if we can skirt Henry's west perimeter." "Bridge." "Right away." "Patch him through." "It's the home office for you, captain." "Captain Howard, aboard The Victoria to Control, over." "I'll check it out personally." "This is The Victoria." " What is it?" " Bomb threat." "Take over the bridge." "Notify Henshaw and Neilson to meet me" " at the weather fax compartment." " Yes, sir." "What was that?" "Get me Engineering." "Scott, give me a damage..." "It sure is great to start off a sunny day thinking about the people you like most." "My pal, Suzanne, for instance." "She's my landlady, the building maintenance person, and the only human being who's figured out how to keep me organized." "So how do I repay her?" "A 21st-century breakfast, of course." "I wonder how she likes her eggs." "Okay, Suzanne, this is the future." "Or part of it anyway." "I think I'll hang loose here in the past." "It might be safer." "The first thing we have to do is get the fridge open." " There it goes." " Okay." "That's a start." "What's next?" "Now we put Roboter to work." " Isn't she great?" " Let's not go straight to great." "After all, I did just meet her." "Let me guess." "You like them scrambled." "Just watch." "Right to the pot." "Right to the pot, Mac?" "Love that modern technology." "It needs a couple adjustments, I guess." "I guess." "Not safe in the past here either." "Incredible timing." "Whoever you are, I owe an incredible debt of..." " MacGyver?" " ... gratitude." " Good, I'll take it right now." " Peter?" " On second thought..." " Now, hold it." "Mac, I've got a job for you." "Pete, I'm on the verge of a great discovery." "Sure, you are." "The world's just waiting to find out about shoe polish egg foo yung." "What was that?" "It's my cranky maintenance lady being her usual self, cranky." "Mac, I need your help." "Last time you said that to me," "I ended up in Washington wearing a pinstripe suit and a necktie." "Yeah, well, that was a show-and-tell." "This is for real." "It's important." "How important?" "Well, a cruise ship in the North pacific with 1,100 passengers and a bomb threat." "From some clown calling himself Viking." "How's that?" "You make it kind of tough for a guy to say no." "Team briefing at my place." "I think I'll have at least one pleasant surprise for you." "Get here as fast as possible, will you?" "See you then." "I have this contract with pete Thornton's outfit that says I take only those jobs I wanna take." "Now, you'd think I'd say no once in a while, especially when pete wants to put me in the middle of the ocean to babysit a bomb." "But no." "Somehow he always seems to come up with a convincing argument." "And then he holds out a carrot like this special surprise." "Charlie?" "Charlie Robinson?" " MacGyver?" " Is that you?" " I don't believe it." " Charlie." " Good to see you." "How you been?" " Good, good." "Real good." " How's Shirley?" " Well, lately, Mac," "Shirley's been a little bit under the weather." "Darn near every morning." "You're kidding." " That's terrific." "Congratulations, pop." " Hey, thanks a lot, Mac." "You know, we've been trying a long time, and it finally happened." "That's terrific." "What are you doing here?" "Well, what is it you always say, "Too big to talk about."" "You haven't been talking to a guy named Peter Thornton, have you?" "You got called up for this one too?" "This is great." "This is great." "Charlie, you get back in your car and you go back home." "This one's gonna bail your old dad out." "You know, Uncle Sam found me in that computer-expert file of his, and put 25,000 on the counter." "Look, Charlie, this isn't you and me in Nam." "And there wasn't a Shirley or a little one on the way back then either." "Yeah, I know." "I know." "And there wasn't a supply company and a home mortgage looking bankruptcy square in the face." "Nothing more to say." "I'm in." "Come on." "You got a screw loose, you know that?" "So?" "What else is new?" "Suspects." "Fifty to start." "More to run down." "Any priority you want set up?" "I recruited you to do a job on this, Mike." "It's yours." " The best way you see getting it done." " That's all I need to hear." "Carlysle, let's get an epic linkup with central, east and southwest regions." "And I want a profile on these guys." "M.O.'s smoking the wires." "Doggone it, Pete." "Charlie's got no business taking this gig." "You're Peter Thornton." "Charlie Robinson." "And ignore him." "He has this irrepressible paternal instinct toward me." "Mac, what is it?" "You guys were in Nam together." "You were a bomb-diffusing team, right?" "Only the best." "Okay, coordination and control come from here." "We've got direct communications with The Victoria." "They've got a search going for the bomb right now." "What's the threat assessment?" "Well, there was a warning bomb that wiped out the weather room, and killed the captain." "Come here." "There is a storm front moving in that makes it impossible" " to put the passengers into lifeboats." " What about sea or air rescue?" "No way." "There are no ships or air rescue units close enough to get to The Victoria before she's into the typhoon zone." "So how do we get there, take a bus?" "No, you take a jet to Midway, and a Huey chopper the rest of the way to the ship." "Pete, given any consideration to tracking down this bomber?" "Oh, we're on that, with an expert." "Mike Donahue." " No, sir, we can't figure it out." " Donahue?" "There was a Donahue that ran the 227 bomb squad out of Da Nang." "Couple of years before our time." "Well, that's him." "Medical discharge and back in the police department." "He runs one of the best bomb investigation units in the country." " Mike." " They've located the bomb." "Near The Victoria's engine room." "Disguised as an electrical cabinet, 2 feet across, 3 feet in height, below the water line." "Threat assessment verified, eh?" "You're the guys that get to find out how it ticks?" "MacGyver, Robinson." "Mike Donahue." "Heard a lot about you." " Only the best." " Thank you." "That's what the man said about you guys." "The question is how good is this Viking?" "Patch from shipping headquarters coming through." "Viking's on the line." "Put it on the PA." "Start a trace." "Good morning." "This is Viking." "You will be interested to know that I am aware that Mr Thornton is listening in from his headquarters." "In fact, I know all about your efforts, Mr Thornton, and the experts you have recruited to stop me." "Donahue." "How's the leg, Donahue?" "The one you lost in Vietnam?" "Robinson congratulations on the upcoming baby." "And of course, your ex-partner, the inventive Mr MacGyver." " Hey, Pete, nice security." " Good staffing job, Mr Thornton." " Mac, I don't want to hear it." " But still a waste of time." "The bomb is set to go off at 6:30 p. m. your time, ten and one-half hours from now." "The way to stop the bomb is to put together $6 million and deliver it..." "The switching station at Proctor puts the call somewhere in Westwood." "Notify all field units." "please, don't disappoint me." "Damn." "Six-thirty." "It's a five-hour flight to Midway, another two and a half hours on the chopper." "That gives us about three hours to work on the bomb once we get there." "This is Whiskey Sierra Bravo to Midway Tower." "Requesting confirmation on a standby chopper for bomb team." "Midway Tower." "We copy, Whiskey Sierra Bravo." "proceed directly to helipad for immediate liftoff." "The tools of our old trade." "Boy, these bring back a few memories." "Yeah, like the time you hocked them for a night out in Saigon." "Only the essentials, MacGyver." "And if I remember right, you had one of your most memorable evenings in the French Quarter." "Oui, monsieur." "Victoria is dead ahead." "We'll have to cable you down." "Then I'm out of here." "No telling when that storm will roll in." "Let's start with your bag of bomb tools." "It'll help me line up on wind direction." "I want you to cordon this area off and keep the passengers way back." "Yes, ma'am." "Excuse me, ladies and gentlemen." "Could you clear this area, please?" "Okay, boys, I've got cable control in the cockpit." "Let her go." "Bob, we got a winch malfunction." "I can't override, Mac." "Mac, we're gonna lose our tools!" "Correction, Charlie." "They're already gone." "They lost their cable." "They'll never make it." "They have to." "Mac, that bomb's not waiting for anybody." "A little more than three hours." "That's all we have left." "Where you going, Mac?" "Well, we can't just sit up here and look like a bunch of dummies." "What do you say we work out a way to turn this cargo net into something useful?" " You mean, like a rappelling line?" " Yeah, something like that." "Mac, you're a wonder, a true wonder." "Just survival, Charlie." "Hand me that karabiner, will you?" "Listen, you can still go back to Midway on the chopper." "And miss a ride like this?" "I think not." "Hang on to that for me, will you, Bob?" "Pick a number between one and ten." "Quick." " Seven." " Close, but wrong." "I go first." "Hold her steady, Bob." "We wanna keep him dry." "I'll vote for that." "Give me the count when ready." "Hooking up." "He's on the rail." "Stand by." "Bomb's away, Charlie." "Go, Mac!" "Contact Control." " Tell them they're onboard." " Right." "I'm Carole Tanner, acting captain of The Victoria." "Captain, name's MacGyver." "This is Charlie Robinson." " Captain." " The red cargo bag." "Was it important?" "Well, that kind of depends on the bomb, ma'am." " Can we get to it?" " Engine room." "Follow me." "Captain, what have you told the passengers?" "As little as possible." "How long you planning on keeping the passengers in the dark about all this?" "We're trying to steer around a typhoon, which prohibits any thought of using lifeboats." "And there's a bomb on board." "What do you suggest I do, Mr MacGyver, create panic?" "Well, if it was me, I'd be awfully curious, especially with Charlie and me coming onboard a couple hours after that first bomb went off." "Well, tell me, Mr MacGyver, would you want to know that a very good possibility exists that you could die a violent death sometime during the next three hours?" "Yes, ma'am, I would." "That's it." "We're convinced it was placed during dry dock last month." "It wasn't really seen until we started looking for it." "Looks just like it belongs here." " Until you pull this door..." " Don't touch that!" "It's okay." "Our electrical engineer saw it was the bomb after he opened it." "We've touched nothing else." "You believe this?" "This guy is no amateur." "Oh, just look at those bomb triggers, Mac." "Mechanical, electrical, chemical." "Get through one, you got another." "And pray that we take them out in the right sequence." "Here." "The connection to Mr Thornton in Los Angeles is ready." "Pete?" "Yo, Pete?" "Yeah?" "Mac?" "I can hear you." "How's it look?" "Well, this one looks like it's gonna be a maze of triggers before we get to the real thing." "Mike, are you hooked up to the NCIC bomb file?" "Right." "Just call out the trigger M.O.'s, we'll track them." " That's a good idea, Mac." " Well, I just hope it pays off." "Now, this first one I'm looking at we ran across a whole bunch in Nam." " Yeah, the Ling Chow bomber." " Oh, boy." "Well, I know his technology." "You're looking at some kind of chemical detonator." "Yeah, powder in a dish." "Sodium?" "It could be sodium?" "Well, it could be, but I don't see any source of water to set it off." "It's sitting below a heat-sensitive thermocouple, little blue light on it." "Boy, dishful of some kind of powdered chemical." "Jeez, it could be anything." "Well, it's a start." "Okay, guys, one list of Ling Chow bomber types coming up." "Well, partner who scrubs and who assists?" "Pick a number." " Captain?" "Ma'am?" " Oh, yes, Mr Atkins." "We found another bomb." "D deck, compartment six." "Where exactly is this D deck?" "Okay, we're here, below the water line, and that's D deck, compartment six." "Opposite ends of the ship." "Could be synched to go off at the same time." "And counting down from three hours, six minutes." "Well, partner, looks like we both scrub." "How can I help?" "Just hold a steady course and think positive thoughts." "I'll do that." "As soon as I've had a talk with the passengers." "Well, it's just you and me now." "Now hear this." "This is the captain speaking with an important message for all passengers." "The explosion that killed Captain Howard six hours ago was the beginning of a grotesque threat made upon all of us aboard The Victoria." "That's it." "Good luck." " Mac, can you read me?" " Yeah." "Loud and clear." "Viking must have had a field day in dry dock." "Is your bomb built into a phoney electrical panel like this one?" "Yep." "All the triggers are behind a sealed glass cover." "I've got an exact copy of yours up here." "There's stuff around the edge." "Looks like some kind of booby trap." "plastic explosive, maybe?" "No, I'd say it's some kind of a silicon base." "Probably a sealer of some kind." "Well, whatever." "We've gotta get inside." "We're counting down fast." "Well, don't push it, Charlie." "We don't wanna rush things here." "I got a hunch that's exactly what Viking wants us to do." "This is Viking." "I assume you've found the second bomb by now and have gathered the $6 million." "So listen closely." "You must realize that you do not have either the time or intelligence to stop my bombs." "Only I can stop them, provided you do exactly what I tell you." "If my instructions are not carried out precisely, you will not hear from me again and you will not learn how to disarm the bombs." "You will put the money in a briefcase, and place it in locker number 324 at the downtown bus depot." "And, gentlemen, it will be both futile and dangerous to try to locate me." " Carlysle?" " No trace." "He knows exactly what he's doing." "MacGyver, Robinson, we've got a dead end on the trace." "No Ling Chow suspects." "I'm gonna go ahead with the money drop." " You hear that, Charlie?" " Yep." "But suppose Viking doesn't live up to his end of the bargain?" "Well, what do you suggest?" "I'm suggesting maybe Viking won't tell us how to turn this thing off." "So we can't sit around and wait." " Pick a number, Mac." " No, no, no, no." "We've played that game already." "I guess that means it's my turn to go first then." "You just follow in my footsteps, partner." "All right." "But, Charlie, remember the routine in Nam." "By the numbers, slow and easy, and we'll live forever." "By the numbers." "Call it out, Charlie." "What's your benchmark?" "All right, take it down this way." "I'm gonna probe the gasket that runs around the outside of the bomb casing." "The one you think is a silicon base." "I'm using a dental probe from the ship's doctor." "It's a number three." "I'm sealing the entry with petroleum jelly." "I'm penetrating the seal." "The chemical in that dish could be any one of a number of things." "I just need to touch it." "Get one sample to test." "Then we'll know." "If I could just reach that dish." "I'm getting there." "I'm getting there, Mac." "Hey, easy, easy, Charlie." "It's a vacuum, Mac!" "It's a vacuum!" " You've gotta fill..." " Charlie!" "Charlie." "All right, damage control has the area isolated and secure." "The affected compartment is shut tight and holding." "Now, I want lifeboats ready and a lifeboat drill scheduled." " The passengers will be briefed then." " Right." "Are you okay?" "You know, Charlie and I busted 51 bombs together in Vietnam." "My God." "Charlie used to put a little scratch on the wall above our bunks every time we'd get back from doing one." "We used to tell anyone who would listen that we were going for the record." "The day we shipped out, he counted them." "Fifty-one." "Then he laughed." "Just laughed." "I'm sorry." "If we get out of this one, it's because Charlie found out number 52 in the split second before he died." " I don't understand it." " He yelled "vacuum."" "That whole bomb is in a vacuum." "The chemical is phosphorus, triggered to explode when air hits it." "The phosphorus flashed, tripped a thermocouple, and that was that." "But if the bomb is built inside a vacuum, then there's no way you can take that glass face off without air getting in." "Unless I fill that vacuum with something else." " Like?" " You got any neon signs on board?" "The search party found another one." "In the auxiliary power room." " You got two neon signs?" " This is becoming insane." " How many more can there be?" " Well, we're sure of the two, and there's no reason to believe they're not in sequence, so we're gonna have to disarm them simultaneously." "I can't be in two places at once, so I'm gonna need a new partner." " Any likely candidates onboard?" " Me." " I'll do it." " Carole..." "I mean, captain." "The whole ship is your responsibility." "If those bombs go off, there will be no ship to command." "In any case, Mr Atkins, you are fully competent to handle her." " Can we get started?" " Yes, ma'am." "MacGyver, any objections?" "As long as you don't mind taking orders instead of giving them, captain." "I always bow to experts." "And I think we can find a couple of neon lights in the lounge." "I'd say we're in pretty good hands, Mr Atkins." "Yes, sir." "So we put the ransom money in locker 324 and then we pull the key." "How's our Viking man take delivery?" "He's probably already made himself a duplicate." "All right, let's go." " Hey." "How about my carrying that?" " Why?" "I never lifted 6 million bucks before." "It would be a cheap thrill." "I'll carry it." "You keep thinking about it." "Out here." "Oh, come on." "Why?" "Why?" "Donahue has a dozen cops covering this place..." " Donahue's inside." " Yeah?" "I'll be inside." "We need one of our men out here as a backup." "And you're the lucky winner." "Com check." "Guess who." "Heads up inside, Donahue." "The money's coming in." "This is the last call for Interstate service to San Francisco, Reno and Salt Lake City." "Boarding at gate three." "I'm going out to the car." "I'll call in and check on that M.O. follow-up." "Right." "Boy, there's less than an hour to go." "Something has to give." "Yeah." "I'm just afraid of what that something is." "All right, let's stay alert, people." "All right, captain, what we're gonna do here is make a little fair exchange." "What do you say we replace the vacuum with a little neon gas." "But I gotta admit, I was a little surprised to see you in charge of this whole ship." "No more than I, MacGyver." "Everything happened kind of fast around here." "Just give me directions." "First step:" "Take the sharpening stone we got out of the bar and score a little piece of the neon right at the very end." "Here we go." "Now before you break the tube, make sure you got the cork handy to plug it so the gas doesn't escape." "One step at a time, right?" "Right." "I'm almost through." "All right." "Now break the tube and plug it fast, like I just did." "Okay." "Done." "I don't believe it." "Now we're gonna work the tube through the sealer." "And when I pull the cork, hopefully I'll get a momentary suction in." "That ought to give us enough time to get the phosphorus out of there." "You with me, captain?" "Under the circumstances, MacGyver, why don't you call me Carole?" "Okay, Carole." "Nice and slow." "I'll go first." "I'm working the silicon sealer now." "The glass tube is maintaining an airtight penetration." "Easy." "Real easy." "Just about through." "This is the tricky part." "Okay, I'm in." "Now I can pop the cork against the edge of the dish." "Cork's out." "Neon gas exchange has given me the vacuum." "It's working." "It's extracting the phosphorus from the dish." "I have an environmental exchange in the bomb cavity." "The dish is empty." "Removing the tube, dumping the phosphorus." "Okay, Carole." "It's your turn." "Now, work the tube through slowly." "Keep moving it forward until you get through the silicon sealer." "I'm petrified, Mac." "Hey, come on." "Who's better than us?" "You can do it." "I'm about to break through the inner seal." "Okay, Mac, I'm through." "Good." "Now go to the dish and pop the cork." "Got it." "I'm in the dish." "It's sucking up the chemicals, Mac." "I think it's gonna work." "I'm gonna make it." "I know I am." "Come on, come on." "Almost there." "Okay, got it." "Well, that's one small step for local Mankind, and still a mile to go." "That thermocouple is German-made." "Boltex." "If you guys want to check it out in the bomber file, we'll get on to this blue cauldron on top of the bomb." " You've got less than an hour now." " Yeah, tell me about it." " You guys any closer to this Viking?" " Not an inch." "Stay with them." "Mr Thornton, this is Viking." "Despite your efforts to ensnare me at the bus station, I have the money." "But you have dealt in bad faith, so I have decided not to give you the bomb-disarming instructions." "Goodbye, Mr Thornton." "That's it." "Control to field operations, come in." "Control, this is Carlysle." "Go ahead." "But we haven't taken our eyes off it." "Harrison, get this place locked down." "There's a rumour the $6 million's already gone." "I'm on it." "What is it?" "Thornton says that Viking's got the money." "The money's gone." "He went in through here." "There's a utility room in the back of the station, you know?" "So nobody saw him, huh?" "No, no, no." "He had this thing set up from square one." "He had a false back, hidden panel." "It was a nice, neat job, huh?" "There's a false back on the locker." "Goes into the back room." "Viking must have had the money two minutes after we put it in there." "He is smart." "He's too damn smart." "Mac?" "I got some bad news." "Real bad." "Viking somehow outmanoeuvered us with the ransom." "He got it out of the locker in the bus station." "We had it staked out, but we didn't get him." "He just called, gloating about it." "But worse than that he says that we broke faith by trying to trap him, so now he's really gonna punish us." "He's got the $6 million, but he's not gonna tell us how to deactivate the bombs." "He's gonna let everybody on that ship die." "So the bottom line, Mac:" "It's up to you now." "Okay." "Here's where we find out just how good Viking is." "This pipework in that blue cauldron looked like our last trigger." "Can I tell you, I haven't got the smallest hint" " of what I'm looking at here." " Well, you're doing just great." "And you're not alone." "All right, now." "I'm touching the right-hand connection at the circuit boards." "Read you." " Mac, freeze it." " What?" "The computer says the Ling Chow bomber used an unstable electrolyte fluid trigger on two sabotage attempts in Cam Ranh Bay, 1973." " What does that mean?" " The fluid carries a current." "Now our problem is to neutralize it." "Donahue." "No, this doesn't ring any bells." "Are you sure?" "You commanded the lead sabotage control group in Cam Ranh Bay, '71 to '73." "Well, yeah, but I didn't ride them all personally." "This one..." "All right." "Mac, hold on a second." "This could be an acid mixture." "Yeah, that's what I figured." "Breach the piping circuit, and you release the acid." "And we'd release the acid into this lateral wiring." " Yeah." "Probably create a short." " I understand." "All right, Carole, I've got an idea here." "But we're gonna need some things." "For both of us." "Name them." "Let's see." "A pastry tube, a container of liquid oven cleaner," " and a pint of milk, please." " Milk?" " Yeah, low-fat, if you got it." " Mr Atkins?" " Ma'am?" " You heard Mr MacGyver." "Pastry tubes, oven cleaner, low-fat milk." "Move." "On the double." "Aye, aye, captain." "MacGyver, milk?" "Add a strong alkaline base in an organic neutral," " if it's an acid, we're in business." " What if you're wrong?" "Well, then it's back to the old drawing board." "All right, Carole, this is the best we have to work with." "Let's just think of it as one giant dose of industrial-strength antacid." "First, the milk." "About three-quarters full should do it." "You got that?" "Yeah, I got it." "Now I'm gonna top it off with the oven cleaner." "And you do the same." "And mix it up real good." "Okay, it's mixed." "Cap's going on." "Ready on this end, Mac." "All right, time check." "Nineteen minutes and 41 seconds." "And counting." "Now I'm gonna pry up the lead-glass stopper seal on top of the number one cylinder, upper right quadrant." "Right." "Okay, Carole, this is probably acid, so just wait until I get the stopper seals off." "There's the first one." "It's acid, all right." "I can smell it." "Now, number two." "Okay, Carole, go ahead and remove your number one stopper seal." "Mac, is anything happening with your acid level?" "It seems to be okay." "I've removed number two." "You done yet?" "Just about got it." "All right, Carole, I'm putting the first dose of neutralizer into the acid in cylinder number one." "Cylinder two." "There's a reaction starting." "All right, all four are treated." "How you doing?" "Okay." "I am now removing the final stopper seal." "Stopper seal's off." "Good job, captain." "Now inject our milk-and-oven-cleaner mixture" " into the acid." " Roger." "Am doing." "I have reactions." "All four cylinders are cloudy." "Yeah, mine too." "Now we wait, and keep our thumbs crossed." "Bridge, this is the captain." "I want the compartment doors dog shut on myself and Mr MacGyver." "Have Engineering brace them." "If the bombs blow, hopefully we'll confine the explosion." " Ma'am." " Mr Atkins," " this is no time for conversation." " Will do, captain." "What do you think, Donahue?" "Seems like we might be on the right track." "Well, I am impressed." "You just may have licked it." "Didn't your boys do a postmortem on this acid trigger in Nam?" "Well, sure we did, but there wasn't much left after she blew." "We ended up with a lot of guesswork." "That's too bad." "I'd sure like to know if I'm right." "Well, we'll know in about five minutes." "Hey, Pete, don't forget, you and I have got a little golf match as soon as this job is over." "Yeah, right." "And I'm gonna spot you a stroke a hole, buddy." "I'm gonna check in with HQ." "Keep monitoring." "Yeah, I will." "Mac?" "What's up?" " We clear?" " Yeah, we're on a separate channel." "Come on." "You never played a round of golf in your entire misspent life." " What's up?" " Listen, I got a notion here." "Can you check out that incident at Cam Ranh Bay in '73?" "Yeah, sure I can." "What is it?" "Well, this is a great piece of booby-trap rigging." "And I mean good." "But anything this fine usually has a personal signature to it." "It's not technology, it's art." "Art?" "MacGyver, it's a damn bomb." "You just lack artistic taste." "Just crosscheck them for me, will you, Pete?" "Phosphorus, thermocouple, an acid trigger." "Who ran into them in Nam?" "Yeah, it could be anybody on a decon team." "Yeah, but who was on each of these?" "All of them?" "You might be able to narrow it down to a couple of names." " Or maybe just one." " Viking." "Okay, Mac, I'm on it." " MacGyver?" " Yeah?" "I can see a definite change in the fluid." "Is that what we want?" "Absolutely." "It's neutralizing." " It's clear." " Okay." "Okay, everybody, last step coming up." "Stand by." "I'm draining it now." "Mac, everything stopped." "Okay." "We did it." "They did it." "MacGyver nailed that sucker." "Congratulations." "He sure did." "Listen, I gotta notify my people." "Stay on top of this, will you?" "You got it." " Mac?" " What is it, Pete?" "We're back on the separate channel." "The computer ran your pattern." "Came up with one name." " Want a guess?" " Try me." "Viking had to be familiar with each of these trigger traps." "Especially the acid in Cam Ranh Bay." " Is that where Donahue lost his leg?" " Yeah." "If you knew, why did you bother with the computer check?" "Oh, it gave us proof." "All I had was a hunch." "Well, it nails Donahue." " Pete, get back on the com line." " Right." "Carole, get the panel off now." "We have to get to the bottom of the bomb." "It's reactivated." "Okay, Mac, I see what looks like two fuses." "A yellow and blue." "Yeah." " One cuts the circuit and one fires it." " Which?" " Donahue?" " Right here." "I'm stuck." "I got less than a minute." "I need some help." "We've got all the pieces of Viking's signature right here in the bomb." "Stop it, and we stop him." "Come on." "I've never made this kind of call without Charlie." "We'd team it." "Two heads." "Both experts." "Help me, Donahue." "Help me, and we'll stop this guy." "What's your head and your gut say?" "Yellow or blue?" "Come on, Donahue." "You've been there." "You can make a judgment call."
