(Siren wailing)

(Tires screeching)

(People chattering)

Cop #1: Get a perimeter up.

Let's see some crowd control.

Did you see what
happened, ma'am?

Woman: This man was running,

and two Latin-appearing
men were chasing him.

And they shot him.

Cop #1: How were they dressed?

Nice. You know, good
trench coats, suits.

What color?

Dark.

They didn't look like killers.

But they just
walked up and shot.

And ran off, that way.

Okay. Thanks, ma'am.
Just step over there.

(People chattering)

Okay, okay, back up,
people. Come on, back up.

We got a job to do here.
Come on, help us out.

Cop #2: Let's
go. Let's hurry up.

All right, cordon it off.

I want a code 100 broadcast
for a 20-block perimeter.

It's off.

(Door opening)

Hey, Pete.

These are the
computer composites

based on descriptions
by witnesses

at the train station yesterday.

(Sighs) What do you think?

Well, I, uh...

I can't tell. I... i didn't
really get a very good look.

It all happened pretty fast.

(Sighs)

Listen, MacGyver,

I called you in on this because,

frankly, I have a
million things to do

and very little
time to do them in.

Hey, I'm here.

(Intercom beeps)

(Beeping)

(Grunts)

Yes, Helen?

Helen: Mr. Thornton,
agent Paul stams

from the dxs to see you.

Send him in.

Dxs?

Yeah. He's a
high-level watchdog.

I've crossed paths
with him before.

The dxs called earlier today

and insisted that we see him.

Good to see you again, Thornton.

Paul stams, MacGyver.
He's working with us.

Hi.

So, what can I do for you?

You know damn
well what you can do.

And that starts with
keeping us informed.

When your organization takes
on the job of coordinating the return

of Samantha lora
to her own country,

you keep us informed.

The dxs refused,

my board agreed to help,

so we have no obligation
to tell anybody anything.

I see.

I assume lora's initial contact

with the Phoenix foundation
was through you personally?

Well, now, what is
that supposed to mean?

Oh, come on, Peter,
it's nothing personal.

Your long association with the
lora family, it's a matter of record.

Your help in her
father's rise to power

while you were an
operative in the field.

And?

And, of course, your
personal relationship

at the time with
the lady herself.

Stop right there.

Now let me set this
record straight, all right?

I first met Samantha
lora over 20 years ago,

when I'd first been divorced.

And she helped me over a
very rough period in my life.

And we became close.

Very good friends.

And I am eternally
grateful to her.

Now, do you have
any more questions

About why she might
have called me personally?

All right, I'm sorry
I was so blunt.

But just because us policy
prevented us from official involvement,

doesn't mean a covert
assist was out of the question,

especially when
you start running

Into death squad operations
at the local train station.

That was supposed to be a
simple drop-off and pickup.

Routine.

Passing a videotape
that documents

the summary execution
of 200 political prisoners

Is hardly routine.

Mr. Stams,

you sure seem to
have a lot of information

for not being involved.

The entire
intelligence community

knew that videotape was stolen,

last week from the
presidential palace in San Pablo.

Well, then, maybe
you've got some ideas

On how the death squad
found out about the drop.

I wish I did. I don't.

Look, we want to help.
We just can't be official.

God knows Samantha
lora will provide

a more humane
government for her people

Than that butcher
who's in power now.

Yes, she will.

And that's exactly why my board
agreed to take on her security.

And arrange for an
international media release

of that videotape.

And we have to have that tape

at jerico broadcasting
by 6:00 P.M. tonight.

- But you don't have it.
- Samantha's key aide,

A man named Nelson Richardson,

was supposed to
pass the tape to me.

But he took off when the
death squad showed up

And killed one of his couriers.

- And you haven't heard from Richardson?
- No, he's disappeared.

And Samantha is the only one
who knows how to contact him.

When does she arrive?

Today.

We've arranged for a safe
house for her to stay in,

until we fly her back to
San Pablo this evening.

Good.

Well, it seems like you have
everything nailed down here,

but if you need any help
at all, call me. Please.

And, Pete,

about me bringing up
that personal thing, uh,

I meant no offense.

I've got your number.

I'll be in touch.

(Sighing)

You okay?

I'm fine.

Your eyes are bothering you.

I'm fine.

Here we go.

She's part of the crew.

They slipped her off
a freighter further out.

Kind of wide open around here.

That's right.

Not exactly the kind of
place you'd expect to find

a targeted political
fugitive, is it?

(Exclaims)

Peter.

Oh, Samantha.

It is so wonderful
to see you again.

Peter, I, I am so very grateful.

Um, hi.

Oh.

This is my good
friend, MacGyver. I, uh...

I have brought him
into the operation.

- How are you?
- Good to meet you.

Well,

let's get out of here.

Samantha, there is a problem.

The videotape delivery
got botched yesterday

when a death squad showed up.

Oh, no.

They killed the
San Pablo courier,

but Richardson is all right.
He got away with the tape.

Our people are being
slaughtered by those animals.

Everything my
father fought against

has returned to our country.

Maybe you can change
all that after the election.

If I can stay alive.

The world is bound to respond

to the atrocities captured
on that videotape.

We finally have proof
that can bring them down.

Look, everybody at
Phoenix is working

to get you back there.

Your plane is ready to
leave at 7:00 this evening.

And we have a 6:00 P.M.
deadline for delivery of that tape.

Now, can you help us get
in contact with Richardson?

Yes. All I need is a
push button phone.

That we can handle
at the safe house.

What's the number
I'm calling from?

555-6978.

(Thunder rumbling)

It's a machine, coded to ring
his beeper with my number.

If all's clear, he'll call back.

No one ever really knows
Nelson's whereabouts.

He prefers it that way.

Won't be long.

Listen, take it easy.

How about something to drink?

Uh, apple juice, maybe?

Still my favorite.

(Exclaims)

- Hey.
- Yeah?

What's goin' on with your eyes?

What do you mean?

Well, I've been watching
you bump into things.

You came out here
for apple juice and...

That's orange juice.

(Chuckles)

Hey.

What's goin' on?

It's my peripheral vision.

How bad is it?

Pretty bad.

It's the real reason
that I called you in

When things fell apart
at the railroad station.

(Sighs)

MacGyver,

I have glaucoma.

Well, that's
treatable, isn't it?

Yeah.

But mine is complicated.

I have

advanced nerve damage.

Very advanced.

It's a little bit like

looking down a tunnel,

with very little
light at the end.

And I have a lot of
trouble with either too much

Or too little light anywhere.

I let it go too long.

Why?

Oh!

Why?

Because I'm stubborn.

And you want to know why?

Denial.

I couldn't believe that
it was happening to me.

So what's the prognosis here?

Well, I'm being treated

and there is a surgery.

But I could lose my sight.

MacGyver, it's
very important to me

That you help us on this.

For her.

Samantha has
enough to worry about.

Okay?

Yeah, okay.

There.

There, see?

Yes, I understand completely.

Take good care of
yourself, my friend.

Bye.

Everything all right?

Yes, thank god.

But he's very nervous, didn't
want to talk on the phone much.

He asked that someone
meet him at the train station

in the balcony in half an hour.

And he said that they
should wear this dove pin

that he gave me last year.

- I'll take that.
- Oh.

Well, you should be able to
make the 6:00 release deadline.

Good luck.

Colonel, that cab driver from
the Marina's on the move again.

He must be going
after the tapes.

Name is MacGyver.

First he's going to lead us to
Richardson and the videotape.

When we have it
in our possession,

you can finish both of them.

Woman on P.A.
system: Train number 19,

service from Chicago,
Cleveland, Pittsburgh, and Albany,

Now arriving at track four.

Train number 21,

service to Santa fe,
with stops in needles,

flagstaff and Albuquerque,

Now ready for
boarding at track nine.

I'm Richardson.

MacGyver.

I'll take you to the videotape.

I was afraid of being
caught with it yesterday

after our courier was shot,

So I stashed it in a rail car
that's under maintenance.

It's this way.

Did you get hurt yesterday?

No. I picked this
up in San Pablo

after I decided to become
a serious journalist.

What, you were beaten?

Well, when Samantha's father,
Guillermo, was assassinated,

I wrote an editorial that
ruffled a few feathers,

so they crushed my foot so bad,

I didn't think I'd walk again.

After that,

telling the truth,

going to prison,

and getting every part of my
body beaten became routine.

Damn.

(Groaning)

Peter?

Peter.

Peter, what are you doing?

What does it look
like I'm doing?

I'm pretending to be a dog!

I brought you some tea.
I'll leave it in the living room.

Oh, no.

No.

Wait!

Wait. Samantha.

Please, wait.

Oh, Samantha.

I'm sorry, I...

I didn't mean to snap
at you like that. I...

You know that you're
the last person in the world

I would want to hurt, Sam.

Do you know that
it's been over 20 years

Since anyone's called me Sam?

Just kind of slipped out.

Not very dignified for a
presidential candidate, huh?

Oh...

I'm still not used
to hearing that.

"Presidential candidate."

- It's so strange.
- Well,

It's not that strange, really.

You do know that
you are the only person

Who can follow in
your father's footsteps.

The people of your country

are very lucky to have you.

You always had a wonderful
way of making me feel better.

Particularly when you didn't
want to talk about yourself.

I know you're having a
problem with your eyes.

Why won't you tell me?

Hey, I'm a good
listener, remember?

Please, just bear with
me on this, will you?

I'm really having a tough
time coming to grips.

And I promised Samantha's father

I'd never let anything
happen to her.

When she was exiled,

I got involved in a
whole new ballgame.

You're a good friend.

Well, she's the only
hope her people have.

Oh, no.

It's gone. The car's gone.

It was sitting right
here on this first track.

The maintenance men said
they'd be workin' on it for weeks.

All right, take it easy,

They could have just moved it
to someplace else in the yard.

We don't have much time.

Do you remember
what it looked like?

Uh, like the color?
Was there a number?

It was a passenger car,

number 974...

4, I think.

(Muttering) 974...

947...

Or is it 74?

Man, I don't believe this.

(Train horn blowing)

That's it.

The blue one.

9477.

That's the one.

Oh, thank god.

They put it on
a different track.

What?

You know those guys?

Cardosa and ramos.

They're the ones that
killed the courier yesterday.

How's your throwing arm?

Uh, it's not much
better than my bad leg.

They've got to be
here somewhere.

We'll find them.

Stay here.

If I flush them out,
you know what to do.

What're you doin'?

I'm gonna use the steam pipe
like an old-fashioned muzzle loader.

Scatter a few stones,

create a diversion.

How did you think of that?

Uh, I don't know, it just
kind of makes sense.

Where exactly did
you hide that tape?

It's, uh, under the back seat.

Last compartment on the right.

Okay.

Give me 30 seconds,
then aim high,

and crank that valve.

Come here. It's hot.

(Clattering)

Colonel cardosa.

Colonel cardosa!

(Grunts)

- There's nothing here.
- I heard something.

Come on.

It's Richardson!

And he's got the tape!

(Gun fires)

(Gun fires)

I got it.

Great. Put it up.

No. No, don't bother him now.

Uh, I'll talk to him later.

MacGyver got the
tape. They're on time.

- Oh.
- He'll be calling us any minute.

Oh, that's wonderful.

It's gonna work,
it's gonna work.

So.

Oh.

Well, uh... How about a fire?

I'm gonna build
a little fire here.

Don't, please.

Don't hide from me, Peter.

Don't you remember what
it was like between us?

We shared everything.

Yes, we did.

And everything was so

vibrant,

and alive.

That time we spent together,

That was the
happiest time of my life.

Mine, too.

You know,

I remember one day,

we spent a whole morning

Just looking at a rainbow.

(Laughing)

Yeah.

Just looking.

Talk to me, Peter.

Please.

Richardson wasn't
such a fool after all.

He enabled his friend to
deliver the tape just as planned.

- Let me go after this MacGyver.
- We're too late.

The damage is done.

But,

the news will not
benefit Samantha lora

if she is not around
to be a candidate.

We kill her.

No, ramos.

That would make a martyr of her.

We have to arrange an accident.

Thornton: I think I can
handle the loss of sight.

But I don't know if I'm ready to

not be able to do my job,

to be

who I am.

I know.

I know how important
that's always been to you.

Is there nothing they can do?

They're talking about a surgery.

Are you going to have it?

- I don't know.
- Why?

(Sighs)

Because with every surgery,

there's a risk.

And I really don't know if I'm
ready to face the possibility of

total blindness.

You know,

when they first approached me
about running for the presidency,

I was paralyzed with fear.

I wanted to do it, but,

I didn't want to die from an
assassin's bullet like my father.

But then I realized

that I had no
control over that, so,

I committed to what I could do.

And I felt free.

Suddenly I was able
to go on with my life.

That's wonderful, Samantha.

That is really wonderful.

- And I'm not there yet.
- Oh...

Reporter: It has long been
rumored that since the assassination

of president Guillermo lora,

the people of the
country of San Pablo

have been subjected
to the harsh realities

Of a ruthless and
repressive government.

These images would seem
to confirm those rumors.

Human beings slaughtered
by death squads.

This footage is devastating.

By the time Samantha lora's
plane reaches San Pablo,

It'll be headlines
all over the world.

That's good.

These are not soldiers.

These are not rebels.

These are civilians.

Civilians who, not long ago, enjoyed
the freedoms of a Democratic...

excuse me. Pete Thornton called

to see if the tape
arrived in on time.

- He didn't want to disturb you.
- Thanks.

- Can I use your phone?
- Sure.

The lives of at least two
brave men, is more than news.

It is a plea to all
Democratic people

And lovers of freedom
around the world to help.

(Ringing)

Hello?

We made the
deadline with the tape.

But the death squad showed up.

Richardson's dead.

Oh, no.

What?

They killed Richardson.

Oh, my god. Not Nelson.

MacGyver, how?
How did they know?

Well, I'm not sure.

But I've got a pretty
good idea, Pete.

Hello?

What? What happened?

Pete?

Pete!

Both the phone and the
power just got disconnected.

They're not on the same circuit.

I don't like this.

(Grunting)

I can hardly see anything.

I'll open the shutters,
let in some light.

No, wait.

Don't go near a window.

Listen, in the kitchen,

Maybe there's some
matches or a candle.

- Can you see well enough to get there?
- Yes, yes.

Take it easy.

(Muffled screaming)

Who's there?

Samantha, talk to me!

(Muffled screaming)

Samantha?

Oh!

Who is it?

I have a gun. I'll use it.

Where are you?

Oh.

(Muffled screaming)

Let her go.

Samantha!

Make it easy on
yourself, miss lora.

I know that voice.

I know that voice.

Well, Pete, why don't
you just sleep on it a while?

(Groaning)

Pete.

(Groans)

What happened?

I couldn't protect her.

I couldn't do my job.

They just took her.

I was useless.

Don't, Pete.

If they hurt her, I'll
never forgive myself.

I said, stop it!

It wasn't your fault.

Now, who took her?

Stams.

He's running his own little dxs.

See, I knew it. He
had me followed.

But why'd he leave you alive?

Cardosa: For bait, Mr. MacGyver.

And you took it.

(Gun clicks)

Samantha, I'm sorry.
This is all my fault.

There was nothing you could do.

Yeah, you're right.

There was nothing I could do.

I'm sorry things worked
out this way, Peter.

But that's the nature
of our business, isn't it?

The plane will be here
soon. Let's move it.

Tie their hands and
feet with the canvas.

It'll burn without a trace.

This way Phoenix will take
the blame for being careless,

and causing a fire.

My father trusted you.

He was your friend.

He supported your
rise in the military.

Times change.

Now, I support my own rise.

(Snarls)

You are way over
the line, stams.

The dxs is gonna find you out.

You've been around, Peter.

Patriotism requires
hard decisions.

In this case, three lives for
the good of two countries.

I'm no threat to your nation.

My government would bring peace.

Your government
will bring chaos,

weakness, and instability,

Just like your father's.

Your people are too
stupid for democracy.

For the first time we have order
in that region we can depend on.

Not dxs polite policy.

Careless.

I'm sorry.

But there are higher causes and
interests than our laws acknowledge.

All right, we got
to stand up, Pete.

Lean against me
for leverage. Ready?

Go.

We got to get to this
grinder. Easy, easy.

Lean, lean.

(Grinder starts whirring)

(Groaning)

(Screams)

Samantha: MacGyver's hurt!

What do we do?
We've got to help him.

Thornton: MacGyver!

(Screaming) Ah, my hands!

(Exclaims)

The flash blinded
me, I can't see.

He's just a little
to your right, Pete.

MacGyver!

MacGyver!

MacGyver?

(Groaning)

Pete, don't! Don't touch me.

Don't touch me, I
can't close my hands.

- Is there anything I can do?
- No!

Nothing, there' s no time.

If those guys don't see
this place go up in flames,

They'll be back.

Let's get Samantha untied.
Take my arm. Come on, come on.

She's right here.

I got her, I got her.

(MacGyver groans)

Something's wrong. Come on.

Here they come.

Samantha,

Jam that crowbar in this
door. Quick, come on.

That's not going to
hold them off forever.

They've locked
it with something.

Her plane arrives any minute.

No more elaborate
accidents, amigos.

We find a way in, and we
find it as fast as possible.

You gotta help me,
Pete. Grab my arm.

Right here.

(Gun firing)

Push!

Ah! God!

Come on.

- You all right?
- Yeah.

Now what?

Wait here.

- Are you all right?
- I'm fine.

Where is he? Where'd he go?

He's looking out.

They're getting an i-beam.

That means they're
gonna ram the door.

Metal on metal.

Samantha, look around for
some cable cutters. Big ones.

- All right.
- Pete, come on.

Right there, right here.

What? What are we gonna do?

You're gonna drive
a gpu tug, Pete.

- I'm gonna drive?
- Yeah. Now, get in the seat.

What about Samantha?

We need cable cutters.
She's gotta find 'em.

Pete, I'll be your eyes.

You be my hands.

Okay, I'll try.

What do I do?

Just kick the junk
off of it, will you?

Come on, let's go.
We haven't got all day.

I am a colonel in the
army of my country,

Mr. Stams.

Not your beast of burden!

For god's sakes, cardosa,
what's the matter with you people?

If you ever refer to me

as "you people" again,

I will shoot you, on the spot!

Relax, cardosa.

You want help? I'll help.

(Engine starting)

All right, good.

Now, down two on the shift.

That's it, that's it.

All right.

Now pull it forward
about three feet,

and crank the wheel hard left.

Nice and easy, go ahead.

Easy.

Slow.

Slow, slow down. Stop.

Stop!

I thought you said to turn left.

I told you to stop, Pete.
You gotta listen to me.

I did listen to you. You
gave me the wrong order.

- No, I didn't.
- Yes, you did.

All right, come on. Let...
let's go back to square one.

What do you want me to do?

All right, put it in
reverse. Let's back up.

Go ahead.

Slow.

All right.

All right, that's
good. Stop. Stop.

Forward. Crank it a little left.

All right, on three.

One, two, three.

Samantha: Hurry!

Easy. Straighten it out.

Keep it steady. Good,
you're doing good.

Now start turning
it a little right.

Little bit.

Easy, a little more.

Straighten it out.

All right, Pete, there's
a wing coming up.

Get ready to duck. Get ready.

All right, now, duck!

All right, good, we made that.

Turn right. Turn
right, turn right.

Easy. Slow.

Straighten it out.

And stop.

- Now what do we do?
- Put it in neutral.

There's a lever
just to the left.

Put your hand on it. There.

There's a button on
top. When I tell you,

press the button
down, pull the lever up.

But not until I tell you. Okay?

Will this do?

That's perfect. Follow me.

Cut this cable.

Right there.

All right, good.

Separate those two wires.

Now jam the red
one against the door.

Jam it against the strut.

(Pounding continues)

Good. Come on.

All right, Pete. Hit it.

Turn on the power switch.

Crank the volts up to 2,000.
Leave the amps where they are.

We're just gonna
try and stun 'em.

All right, Samantha,
turn on the cable switch.

Right.

One more should do it.

Now.

(Electricity buzzing)

(All groaning)

All right, shut it down.

(Grunts)

Stay down.

I don't want to shoot
anyone, but I will.

Did we do it?

Yeah, Pete. We did it.

Thank you, MacGyver.

I'll never forget
what you've done.

Thank you, Peter.

I'll pray for you.

Good luck to you.

I am gonna have the surgery.

I'll make you a deal.

I will survive my presidency,

you will triumph
in your operation,

and come to see me.

It's a deal.

(Samantha speaking Spanish)

So what'd they say?

I'm gonna heal.

Okay to ride with you?

I'd like that.

So,

wanna go bowling?
