1
00:01:32,889 --> 00:01:35,699
- Good morning.
- Good morning.

2
00:01:53,449 --> 00:01:56,128
Take a look at what
our eye in the sky has to say.

3
00:01:56,129 --> 00:01:58,368
- What are they calling her?
- Henry.

4
00:01:58,369 --> 00:02:01,928
Two hundred miles across, and
we're headed right down his throat.

5
00:02:01,929 --> 00:02:06,048
I think our passengers might object.
Not exactly vacation weather.

6
00:02:06,049 --> 00:02:11,888
Make a course adjustment and see if
we can skirt Henry's west perimeter.

7
00:02:11,889 --> 00:02:14,368
Bridge. Right away.
Patch him through.

8
00:02:14,369 --> 00:02:16,648
It's the home office for you, captain.

9
00:02:16,649 --> 00:02:21,419
Captain Howard, aboard
The Victoria to Control, over.

10
00:02:23,889 --> 00:02:28,599
I'll check it out personally.
This is The Victoria.

11
00:02:30,289 --> 00:02:32,909
- What is it?
- Bomb threat.

12
00:02:33,969 --> 00:02:35,608
Take over the bridge.

13
00:02:35,609 --> 00:02:37,208
Notify Henshaw and Neilson
to meet me

14
00:02:37,209 --> 00:02:41,289
- at the weather fax compartment.
- Yes, sir.

15
00:02:52,169 --> 00:02:54,669
What was that?

16
00:02:54,889 --> 00:02:59,099
Get me Engineering.
Scott, give me a damage...

17
00:03:08,089 --> 00:03:10,768
It sure is great
to start off a sunny day

18
00:03:10,769 --> 00:03:13,088
thinking about the people
you like most.

19
00:03:13,089 --> 00:03:15,088
My pal, Suzanne, for instance.

20
00:03:15,089 --> 00:03:18,328
She's my landlady,
the building maintenance person,

21
00:03:18,329 --> 00:03:22,848
and the only human being who's
figured out how to keep me organized.

22
00:03:22,849 --> 00:03:25,488
So how do I repay her?

23
00:03:25,649 --> 00:03:29,039
A 21st-century breakfast,
of course.

24
00:03:29,249 --> 00:03:31,328
I wonder how she likes her eggs.

25
00:03:31,329 --> 00:03:36,368
Okay, Suzanne, this is the future.
Or part of it anyway.

26
00:03:36,369 --> 00:03:41,999
I think I'll hang loose here in the past.
It might be safer.

27
00:03:47,609 --> 00:03:49,928
The first thing we have to do
is get the fridge open.

28
00:03:49,929 --> 00:03:54,923
- There it goes.
- Okay. That's a start. What's next?

29
00:03:56,169 --> 00:03:58,679
Now we put Roboter to work.

30
00:03:59,289 --> 00:04:02,328
- Isn't she great?
- Let's not go straight to great.

31
00:04:02,329 --> 00:04:05,209
After all, I did just meet her.

32
00:04:06,849 --> 00:04:10,369
Let me guess.
You like them scrambled.

33
00:04:12,049 --> 00:04:15,041
Just watch. Right to the pot.

34
00:04:22,849 --> 00:04:25,349
Right to the pot, Mac?

35
00:04:28,449 --> 00:04:30,848
Love that modern technology.

36
00:04:30,849 --> 00:04:33,168
It needs a couple adjustments,
I guess.

37
00:04:33,169 --> 00:04:37,109
I guess. Not safe
in the past here either.

38
00:04:38,569 --> 00:04:41,069
Incredible timing.

39
00:04:43,729 --> 00:04:46,608
Whoever you are,
I owe an incredible debt of...

40
00:04:46,609 --> 00:04:48,368
- MacGyver?
- ... gratitude.

41
00:04:48,369 --> 00:04:52,203
- Good, I'll take it right now.
- Peter?

42
00:04:52,569 --> 00:04:55,088
- On second thought...
- Now, hold it.

43
00:04:55,089 --> 00:04:57,048
Mac, I've got a job for you.

44
00:04:57,049 --> 00:05:01,128
Pete, I'm on the verge
of a great discovery.

45
00:05:01,129 --> 00:05:02,328
Sure, you are.

46
00:05:02,329 --> 00:05:06,448
The world's just waiting to find out
about shoe polish egg foo yung.

47
00:05:06,449 --> 00:05:07,728
What was that?

48
00:05:07,729 --> 00:05:12,048
It's my cranky maintenance lady
being her usual self, cranky.

49
00:05:12,049 --> 00:05:14,088
Mac, I need your help.

50
00:05:14,089 --> 00:05:15,528
Last time you said that to me,

51
00:05:15,529 --> 00:05:18,848
I ended up in Washington wearing
a pinstripe suit and a necktie.

52
00:05:18,849 --> 00:05:22,968
Yeah, well, that was a show-and-tell.
This is for real. It's important.

53
00:05:22,969 --> 00:05:24,528
How important?

54
00:05:24,529 --> 00:05:26,808
Well, a cruise ship
in the North pacific

55
00:05:26,809 --> 00:05:29,448
with 1,100 passengers
and a bomb threat.

56
00:05:29,449 --> 00:05:32,768
From some clown
calling himself Viking. How's that?

57
00:05:32,769 --> 00:05:35,088
You make it kind of tough
for a guy to say no.

58
00:05:35,089 --> 00:05:37,168
Team briefing at my place.

59
00:05:37,169 --> 00:05:40,008
I think I'll have at least
one pleasant surprise for you.

60
00:05:40,009 --> 00:05:41,888
Get here as fast
as possible, will you?

61
00:05:41,889 --> 00:05:44,389
See you then.

62
00:05:49,129 --> 00:05:51,808
I have this contract
with pete Thornton's outfit

63
00:05:51,809 --> 00:05:55,048
that says I take only
those jobs I wanna take.

64
00:05:55,049 --> 00:05:58,208
Now, you'd think I'd say no
once in a while,

65
00:05:58,209 --> 00:06:00,088
especially when pete
wants to put me

66
00:06:00,089 --> 00:06:02,928
in the middle of the ocean
to babysit a bomb.

67
00:06:02,929 --> 00:06:05,088
But no.

68
00:06:05,089 --> 00:06:08,608
Somehow he always seems to
come up with a convincing argument.

69
00:06:08,609 --> 00:06:13,768
And then he holds out a carrot
like this special surprise.

70
00:06:13,769 --> 00:06:16,128
Charlie?

71
00:06:16,129 --> 00:06:18,629
Charlie Robinson?

72
00:06:19,449 --> 00:06:20,728
- MacGyver?
- Is that you?

73
00:06:20,729 --> 00:06:23,568
- I don't believe it.
- Charlie.

74
00:06:23,569 --> 00:06:27,088
- Good to see you. How you been?
- Good, good. Real good.

75
00:06:27,089 --> 00:06:29,688
- How's Shirley?
- Well, lately, Mac,

76
00:06:29,689 --> 00:06:31,848
Shirley's been a little bit
under the weather.

77
00:06:31,849 --> 00:06:34,349
Darn near every morning.

78
00:06:34,689 --> 00:06:36,928
You're kidding.

79
00:06:36,929 --> 00:06:41,208
- That's terrific. Congratulations, pop.
- Hey, thanks a lot, Mac.

80
00:06:41,209 --> 00:06:44,248
You know, we've been trying
a long time, and it finally happened.

81
00:06:44,249 --> 00:06:47,968
That's terrific.
What are you doing here?

82
00:06:47,969 --> 00:06:51,808
Well, what is it you always say,
"Too big to talk about."

83
00:06:51,809 --> 00:06:54,648
You haven't been talking to a guy
named Peter Thornton, have you?

84
00:06:54,649 --> 00:06:57,848
You got called up for this one too?
This is great. This is great.

85
00:06:57,849 --> 00:07:01,448
Charlie, you get back in your car
and you go back home.

86
00:07:01,449 --> 00:07:03,608
This one's gonna bail
your old dad out.

87
00:07:03,609 --> 00:07:06,208
You know, Uncle Sam found me
in that computer-expert file of his,

88
00:07:06,209 --> 00:07:09,121
and put 25,000 on the counter.

89
00:07:09,289 --> 00:07:13,208
Look, Charlie,
this isn't you and me in Nam.

90
00:07:13,209 --> 00:07:17,128
And there wasn't a Shirley or
a little one on the way back then either.

91
00:07:17,129 --> 00:07:19,968
Yeah, I know. I know.
And there wasn't a supply company

92
00:07:19,969 --> 00:07:24,608
and a home mortgage looking
bankruptcy square in the face.

93
00:07:24,609 --> 00:07:28,149
Nothing more to say.
I'm in. Come on.

94
00:07:28,289 --> 00:07:30,488
You got a screw loose,
you know that?

95
00:07:30,489 --> 00:07:33,003
So? What else is new?

96
00:07:41,049 --> 00:07:44,808
Suspects. Fifty to start.
More to run down.

97
00:07:44,809 --> 00:07:46,968
Any priority you want set up?

98
00:07:46,969 --> 00:07:49,568
I recruited you to do a job
on this, Mike. It's yours.

99
00:07:49,569 --> 00:07:52,328
- The best way you see getting it done.
- That's all I need to hear.

100
00:07:52,329 --> 00:07:55,488
Carlysle, let's get an epic linkup with
central, east and southwest regions.

101
00:07:55,489 --> 00:07:59,768
And I want a profile on these guys.
M.O.'s smoking the wires.

102
00:07:59,769 --> 00:08:03,008
Doggone it, Pete. Charlie's got
no business taking this gig.

103
00:08:03,009 --> 00:08:05,888
You're Peter Thornton.
Charlie Robinson.

104
00:08:05,889 --> 00:08:07,048
And ignore him.

105
00:08:07,049 --> 00:08:09,528
He has this irrepressible
paternal instinct toward me.

106
00:08:09,529 --> 00:08:12,728
Mac, what is it?
You guys were in Nam together.

107
00:08:12,729 --> 00:08:15,728
You were a bomb-diffusing team,
right?

108
00:08:15,729 --> 00:08:17,088
Only the best.

109
00:08:17,089 --> 00:08:20,088
Okay, coordination and control
come from here.

110
00:08:20,089 --> 00:08:22,448
We've got direct communications
with The Victoria.

111
00:08:22,449 --> 00:08:24,608
They've got a search going
for the bomb right now.

112
00:08:24,609 --> 00:08:26,848
What's the threat assessment?

113
00:08:26,849 --> 00:08:29,688
Well, there was a warning bomb
that wiped out the weather room,

114
00:08:29,689 --> 00:08:32,840
and killed the captain. Come here.

115
00:08:34,209 --> 00:08:37,808
There is a storm front moving in
that makes it impossible

116
00:08:37,809 --> 00:08:41,488
- to put the passengers into lifeboats.
- What about sea or air rescue?

117
00:08:41,489 --> 00:08:44,648
No way. There are no ships
or air rescue units close enough

118
00:08:44,649 --> 00:08:47,968
to get to The Victoria
before she's into the typhoon zone.

119
00:08:47,969 --> 00:08:50,408
So how do we get there,
take a bus?

120
00:08:50,409 --> 00:08:52,208
No, you take a jet to Midway,

121
00:08:52,209 --> 00:08:54,528
and a Huey chopper
the rest of the way to the ship.

122
00:08:54,529 --> 00:08:58,728
Pete, given any consideration
to tracking down this bomber?

123
00:08:58,729 --> 00:09:01,728
Oh, we're on that, with an expert.
Mike Donahue.

124
00:09:01,729 --> 00:09:03,728
- No, sir, we can't figure it out.
- Donahue?

125
00:09:03,729 --> 00:09:07,088
There was a Donahue that ran
the 227 bomb squad out of Da Nang.

126
00:09:07,089 --> 00:09:08,928
Couple of years before our time.

127
00:09:08,929 --> 00:09:12,808
Well, that's him. Medical discharge
and back in the police department.

128
00:09:12,809 --> 00:09:16,688
He runs one of the best
bomb investigation units in the country.

129
00:09:16,689 --> 00:09:18,528
- Mike.
- They've located the bomb.

130
00:09:18,529 --> 00:09:20,608
Near The Victoria's engine room.

131
00:09:20,609 --> 00:09:25,128
Disguised as an electrical cabinet,
2 feet across, 3 feet in height,

132
00:09:25,129 --> 00:09:27,048
below the water line.

133
00:09:27,049 --> 00:09:29,048
Threat assessment verified, eh?

134
00:09:29,049 --> 00:09:31,488
You're the guys that get
to find out how it ticks?

135
00:09:31,489 --> 00:09:33,248
MacGyver, Robinson.
Mike Donahue.

136
00:09:33,249 --> 00:09:35,368
Heard a lot about you.

137
00:09:35,369 --> 00:09:37,528
- Only the best.
- Thank you.

138
00:09:37,529 --> 00:09:39,688
That's what the man said
about you guys.

139
00:09:39,689 --> 00:09:41,728
The question is
how good is this Viking?

140
00:09:41,729 --> 00:09:45,168
Patch from shipping headquarters
coming through. Viking's on the line.

141
00:09:45,169 --> 00:09:48,179
Put it on the PA. Start a trace.

142
00:09:48,649 --> 00:09:51,288
Good morning. This is Viking.

143
00:09:51,449 --> 00:09:53,568
You will be interested to know
that I am aware

144
00:09:53,569 --> 00:09:56,008
that Mr Thornton is listening in
from his headquarters.

145
00:09:56,009 --> 00:09:59,088
In fact, I know all about
your efforts, Mr Thornton,

146
00:09:59,089 --> 00:10:02,968
and the experts
you have recruited to stop me.

147
00:10:02,969 --> 00:10:04,968
Donahue.

148
00:10:04,969 --> 00:10:08,728
How's the leg, Donahue?
The one you lost in Vietnam?

149
00:10:08,729 --> 00:10:10,688
Robinson...

150
00:10:10,689 --> 00:10:13,088
...congratulations
on the upcoming baby.

151
00:10:13,089 --> 00:10:16,248
And of course, your ex-partner,
the inventive Mr MacGyver.

152
00:10:16,249 --> 00:10:18,808
- Hey, Pete, nice security.
- Good staffing job, Mr Thornton.

153
00:10:18,809 --> 00:10:21,288
- Mac, I don't want to hear it.
- But still a waste of time.

154
00:10:21,289 --> 00:10:24,448
The bomb is set to go off
at 6:30 p. m. your time,

155
00:10:24,449 --> 00:10:27,008
ten and one-half hours
from now.

156
00:10:27,009 --> 00:10:30,848
The way to stop the bomb is to put
together $6 million and deliver it...

157
00:10:30,849 --> 00:10:33,808
The switching station at Proctor puts
the call somewhere in Westwood.

158
00:10:33,809 --> 00:10:36,128
Notify all field units.

159
00:10:36,129 --> 00:10:38,848
please, don't disappoint me.

160
00:10:41,969 --> 00:10:44,469
Damn.

161
00:10:45,049 --> 00:10:47,608
Six-thirty. It's a five-hour flight
to Midway,

162
00:10:47,609 --> 00:10:49,888
another two and a half hours
on the chopper.

163
00:10:49,889 --> 00:10:56,369
That gives us about three hours to
work on the bomb once we get there.

164
00:11:06,409 --> 00:11:08,568
This is Whiskey Sierra Bravo
to Midway Tower.

165
00:11:08,569 --> 00:11:11,448
Requesting confirmation on a
standby chopper for bomb team.

166
00:11:11,449 --> 00:11:14,448
Midway Tower. We copy,
Whiskey Sierra Bravo.

167
00:11:14,449 --> 00:11:18,929
proceed directly to helipad
for immediate liftoff.

168
00:11:25,449 --> 00:11:30,128
The tools of our old trade.
Boy, these bring back a few memories.

169
00:11:30,129 --> 00:11:33,888
Yeah, like the time you hocked them
for a night out in Saigon.

170
00:11:33,889 --> 00:11:37,168
Only the essentials, MacGyver.
And if I remember right,

171
00:11:37,169 --> 00:11:40,528
you had one of your most memorable
evenings in the French Quarter.

172
00:11:40,529 --> 00:11:42,448
Oui, monsieur.

173
00:11:42,449 --> 00:11:44,949
Victoria is dead ahead.

174
00:11:47,209 --> 00:11:50,088
We'll have to cable you down.
Then I'm out of here.

175
00:11:50,089 --> 00:11:52,728
No telling when that storm will roll in.

176
00:11:52,729 --> 00:12:00,239
Let's start with your bag of bomb tools.
It'll help me line up on wind direction.

177
00:12:13,849 --> 00:12:17,008
I want you to cordon this area off
and keep the passengers way back.

178
00:12:17,009 --> 00:12:18,368
Yes, ma'am.

179
00:12:18,369 --> 00:12:24,409
Excuse me, ladies and gentlemen.
Could you clear this area, please?

180
00:12:25,569 --> 00:12:31,309
Okay, boys, I've got cable control
in the cockpit. Let her go.

181
00:12:39,369 --> 00:12:42,279
Bob, we got a winch malfunction.

182
00:12:43,649 --> 00:12:46,149
I can't override, Mac.

183
00:12:46,329 --> 00:12:48,328
Mac, we're gonna lose our tools!

184
00:12:48,329 --> 00:12:51,008
Correction, Charlie.
They're already gone.

185
00:12:51,009 --> 00:12:52,848
They lost their cable.
They'll never make it.

186
00:12:52,849 --> 00:12:55,008
They have to.

187
00:12:55,009 --> 00:12:58,819
Mac, that bomb's not waiting
for anybody.

188
00:13:01,609 --> 00:13:06,819
A little more than three hours.
That's all we have left.

189
00:13:21,049 --> 00:13:22,288
Where you going, Mac?

190
00:13:22,289 --> 00:13:26,208
Well, we can't just sit up here
and look like a bunch of dummies.

191
00:13:26,209 --> 00:13:27,568
What do you say we work out a way

192
00:13:27,569 --> 00:13:29,408
to turn this cargo net
into something useful?

193
00:13:29,409 --> 00:13:32,168
- You mean, like a rappelling line?
- Yeah, something like that.

194
00:13:32,169 --> 00:13:35,605
Mac, you're a wonder,
a true wonder.

195
00:13:39,769 --> 00:13:42,269
Just survival, Charlie.

196
00:13:48,689 --> 00:13:51,679
Hand me that karabiner, will you?

197
00:13:55,249 --> 00:13:58,168
Listen, you can still go back
to Midway on the chopper.

198
00:13:58,169 --> 00:14:00,488
And miss a ride like this?

199
00:14:00,489 --> 00:14:02,968
I think not.

200
00:14:02,969 --> 00:14:06,208
Hang on to that for me,
will you, Bob?

201
00:14:06,209 --> 00:14:08,528
Pick a number
between one and ten. Quick.

202
00:14:08,529 --> 00:14:11,368
- Seven.
- Close, but wrong. I go first.

203
00:14:11,369 --> 00:14:14,528
Hold her steady, Bob.
We wanna keep him dry.

204
00:14:14,529 --> 00:14:17,368
I'll vote for that. Give me
the count when ready.

205
00:14:17,369 --> 00:14:19,869
Hooking up.

206
00:14:26,609 --> 00:14:29,169
He's on the rail. Stand by.

207
00:14:30,489 --> 00:14:32,989
Bomb's away, Charlie.

208
00:14:34,289 --> 00:14:36,789
Go, Mac!

209
00:14:50,809 --> 00:14:51,968
Contact Control.

210
00:14:51,969 --> 00:14:55,359
- Tell them they're onboard.
- Right.

211
00:14:55,809 --> 00:14:58,408
I'm Carole Tanner,
acting captain of The Victoria.

212
00:14:58,409 --> 00:15:01,288
Captain, name's MacGyver.
This is Charlie Robinson.

213
00:15:01,289 --> 00:15:05,088
- Captain.
- The red cargo bag. Was it important?

214
00:15:05,089 --> 00:15:07,888
Well, that kind of depends
on the bomb, ma'am.

215
00:15:07,889 --> 00:15:12,069
- Can we get to it?
- Engine room. Follow me.

216
00:15:15,889 --> 00:15:18,408
Captain, what have you
told the passengers?

217
00:15:18,409 --> 00:15:20,909
As little as possible.

218
00:15:24,609 --> 00:15:29,288
How long you planning on keeping the
passengers in the dark about all this?

219
00:15:29,289 --> 00:15:31,448
We're trying to steer
around a typhoon,

220
00:15:31,449 --> 00:15:33,928
which prohibits any thought
of using lifeboats.

221
00:15:33,929 --> 00:15:35,568
And there's a bomb on board.

222
00:15:35,569 --> 00:15:39,008
What do you suggest I do,
Mr MacGyver, create panic?

223
00:15:39,009 --> 00:15:41,168
Well, if it was me,
I'd be awfully curious,

224
00:15:41,169 --> 00:15:43,328
especially with Charlie and me
coming onboard

225
00:15:43,329 --> 00:15:45,848
a couple hours
after that first bomb went off.

226
00:15:45,849 --> 00:15:47,688
Well, tell me, Mr MacGyver,

227
00:15:47,689 --> 00:15:50,928
would you want to know
that a very good possibility exists

228
00:15:50,929 --> 00:15:57,088
that you could die a violent death
sometime during the next three hours?

229
00:15:57,089 --> 00:15:59,589
Yes, ma'am, I would.

230
00:16:12,889 --> 00:16:14,808
That's it.

231
00:16:14,809 --> 00:16:17,808
We're convinced it was placed
during dry dock last month.

232
00:16:17,809 --> 00:16:21,488
It wasn't really seen
until we started looking for it.

233
00:16:21,489 --> 00:16:23,128
Looks just like it belongs here.

234
00:16:23,129 --> 00:16:25,128
- Until you pull this door...
- Don't touch that!

235
00:16:25,129 --> 00:16:27,128
It's okay.

236
00:16:27,129 --> 00:16:30,328
Our electrical engineer saw it
was the bomb after he opened it.

237
00:16:30,329 --> 00:16:32,829
We've touched nothing else.

238
00:16:34,729 --> 00:16:37,229
You believe this?

239
00:16:39,609 --> 00:16:41,328
This guy is no amateur.

240
00:16:41,329 --> 00:16:45,219
Oh, just look at
those bomb triggers, Mac.

241
00:16:45,729 --> 00:16:50,048
Mechanical, electrical, chemical.
Get through one, you got another.

242
00:16:50,049 --> 00:16:52,728
And pray that we take them out
in the right sequence.

243
00:16:52,729 --> 00:16:58,209
Here. The connection to Mr Thornton
in Los Angeles is ready.

244
00:17:00,009 --> 00:17:02,842
Pete? Yo, Pete?

245
00:17:03,009 --> 00:17:07,605
Yeah? Mac? I can hear you.
How's it look?

246
00:17:07,769 --> 00:17:10,328
Well, this one looks like
it's gonna be a maze of triggers

247
00:17:10,329 --> 00:17:12,008
before we get to the real thing.

248
00:17:12,009 --> 00:17:15,648
Mike, are you hooked up
to the NCIC bomb file?

249
00:17:15,649 --> 00:17:18,088
Right. Just call out the trigger M.O.'s,
we'll track them.

250
00:17:18,089 --> 00:17:21,328
- That's a good idea, Mac.
- Well, I just hope it pays off.

251
00:17:21,329 --> 00:17:26,048
Now, this first one I'm looking at
we ran across a whole bunch in Nam.

252
00:17:26,049 --> 00:17:30,520
- Yeah, the Ling Chow bomber.
- Oh, boy.

253
00:17:30,689 --> 00:17:32,008
Well, I know his technology.

254
00:17:32,009 --> 00:17:34,048
You're looking at some kind of
chemical detonator.

255
00:17:34,049 --> 00:17:36,768
Yeah, powder in a dish.

256
00:17:37,849 --> 00:17:39,408
Sodium? It could be sodium?

257
00:17:39,409 --> 00:17:43,648
Well, it could be, but I don't see
any source of water to set it off.

258
00:17:43,649 --> 00:17:48,168
It's sitting below a heat-sensitive
thermocouple, little blue light on it.

259
00:17:48,169 --> 00:17:52,008
Boy, dishful of some kind of powdered
chemical. Jeez, it could be anything.

260
00:17:52,009 --> 00:17:55,608
Well, it's a start. Okay, guys, one list of
Ling Chow bomber types coming up.

261
00:17:55,609 --> 00:17:57,928
Well, partner...

262
00:17:57,929 --> 00:18:02,008
...who scrubs and who assists?
Pick a number.

263
00:18:02,009 --> 00:18:06,241
- Captain? Ma'am?
- Oh, yes, Mr Atkins.

264
00:18:06,409 --> 00:18:10,528
We found another bomb.
D deck, compartment six.

265
00:18:10,529 --> 00:18:13,199
Where exactly is this D deck?

266
00:18:16,089 --> 00:18:19,739
Okay, we're here,
below the water line,

267
00:18:19,889 --> 00:18:23,048
and that's D deck,
compartment six.

268
00:18:23,049 --> 00:18:26,288
Opposite ends of the ship. Could
be synched to go off at the same time.

269
00:18:26,289 --> 00:18:29,048
And counting down
from three hours, six minutes.

270
00:18:29,049 --> 00:18:31,928
Well, partner,
looks like we both scrub.

271
00:18:31,929 --> 00:18:34,208
How can I help?

272
00:18:34,209 --> 00:18:38,888
Just hold a steady course
and think positive thoughts.

273
00:18:38,889 --> 00:18:44,649
I'll do that. As soon as
I've had a talk with the passengers.

274
00:18:57,089 --> 00:19:00,638
Well, it's just you and me now.

275
00:19:07,849 --> 00:19:10,168
Now hear this.

276
00:19:10,169 --> 00:19:15,008
This is the captain speaking with an
important message for all passengers.

277
00:19:15,009 --> 00:19:19,008
The explosion that killed
Captain Howard six hours ago

278
00:19:19,009 --> 00:19:21,248
was the beginning
of a grotesque threat

279
00:19:21,249 --> 00:19:24,979
made upon all of us
aboard The Victoria.

280
00:19:28,489 --> 00:19:30,848
That's it.

281
00:19:30,849 --> 00:19:33,349
Good luck.

282
00:19:39,329 --> 00:19:43,669
- Mac, can you read me?
- Yeah. Loud and clear.

283
00:19:45,169 --> 00:19:48,128
Viking must have had
a field day in dry dock.

284
00:19:48,129 --> 00:19:51,648
Is your bomb built into
a phoney electrical panel like this one?

285
00:19:51,649 --> 00:19:54,808
Yep. All the triggers are behind
a sealed glass cover.

286
00:19:54,809 --> 00:19:58,608
I've got an exact copy
of yours up here.

287
00:19:58,609 --> 00:20:01,359
There's stuff around the edge.

288
00:20:02,569 --> 00:20:05,769
Looks like some kind of booby trap.

289
00:20:09,489 --> 00:20:11,328
plastic explosive, maybe?

290
00:20:11,329 --> 00:20:15,088
No, I'd say it's some kind
of a silicon base.

291
00:20:15,089 --> 00:20:17,808
Probably a sealer of some kind.

292
00:20:17,809 --> 00:20:20,328
Well, whatever.
We've gotta get inside.

293
00:20:20,329 --> 00:20:22,208
We're counting down fast.

294
00:20:22,209 --> 00:20:25,368
Well, don't push it, Charlie.
We don't wanna rush things here.

295
00:20:25,369 --> 00:20:28,528
I got a hunch that's exactly
what Viking wants us to do.

296
00:20:28,529 --> 00:20:30,568
This is Viking.

297
00:20:30,569 --> 00:20:32,848
I assume you've found
the second bomb by now

298
00:20:32,849 --> 00:20:37,008
and have gathered the $6 million.
So listen closely.

299
00:20:37,009 --> 00:20:39,928
You must realize that you
do not have either the time

300
00:20:39,929 --> 00:20:41,808
or intelligence to stop my bombs.

301
00:20:41,809 --> 00:20:46,048
Only I can stop them, provided
you do exactly what I tell you.

302
00:20:46,049 --> 00:20:48,808
If my instructions
are not carried out precisely,

303
00:20:48,809 --> 00:20:50,288
you will not hear from me again

304
00:20:50,289 --> 00:20:53,288
and you will not learn
how to disarm the bombs.

305
00:20:53,289 --> 00:20:55,128
You will put the money
in a briefcase,

306
00:20:55,129 --> 00:20:59,368
and place it in locker number 324
at the downtown bus depot.

307
00:20:59,369 --> 00:21:04,888
And, gentlemen, it will be both futile
and dangerous to try to locate me.

308
00:21:04,889 --> 00:21:06,888
- Carlysle?
- No trace.

309
00:21:06,889 --> 00:21:09,929
He knows exactly what he's doing.

310
00:21:14,769 --> 00:21:19,248
MacGyver, Robinson,
we've got a dead end on the trace.

311
00:21:19,249 --> 00:21:24,648
No Ling Chow suspects. I'm gonna
go ahead with the money drop.

312
00:21:24,649 --> 00:21:26,208
- You hear that, Charlie?
- Yep.

313
00:21:26,209 --> 00:21:29,048
But suppose Viking doesn't
live up to his end of the bargain?

314
00:21:29,049 --> 00:21:31,008
Well, what do you suggest?

315
00:21:31,009 --> 00:21:35,448
I'm suggesting maybe Viking
won't tell us how to turn this thing off.

316
00:21:35,449 --> 00:21:38,088
So we can't sit around and wait.

317
00:21:38,089 --> 00:21:40,448
- Pick a number, Mac.
- No, no, no, no.

318
00:21:40,449 --> 00:21:42,248
We've played that game already.

319
00:21:42,249 --> 00:21:45,768
I guess that means
it's my turn to go first then.

320
00:21:45,769 --> 00:21:49,088
You just follow
in my footsteps, partner.

321
00:21:49,089 --> 00:21:51,168
All right.

322
00:21:51,169 --> 00:21:55,009
But, Charlie,
remember the routine in Nam.

323
00:21:55,169 --> 00:22:00,243
By the numbers, slow and easy,
and we'll live forever.

324
00:22:01,209 --> 00:22:03,709
By the numbers.

325
00:22:10,529 --> 00:22:13,408
Call it out, Charlie.
What's your benchmark?

326
00:22:13,409 --> 00:22:16,168
All right, take it down this way.

327
00:22:16,169 --> 00:22:20,888
I'm gonna probe the gasket that runs
around the outside of the bomb casing.

328
00:22:20,889 --> 00:22:24,219
The one you think is a silicon base.

329
00:22:24,649 --> 00:22:27,968
I'm using a dental probe
from the ship's doctor.

330
00:22:27,969 --> 00:22:29,768
It's a number three.

331
00:22:29,769 --> 00:22:33,739
I'm sealing the entry
with petroleum jelly.

332
00:22:36,449 --> 00:22:39,441
I'm penetrating the seal.

333
00:22:39,609 --> 00:22:42,608
The chemical in that dish could be
any one of a number of things.

334
00:22:42,609 --> 00:22:46,888
I just need to touch it. Get one
sample to test. Then we'll know.

335
00:22:46,889 --> 00:22:50,564
If I could just reach that dish.

336
00:23:06,329 --> 00:23:09,048
I'm getting there.
I'm getting there, Mac.

337
00:23:09,049 --> 00:23:11,549
Hey, easy, easy, Charlie.

338
00:23:13,969 --> 00:23:16,728
It's a vacuum, Mac! It's a vacuum!

339
00:23:16,729 --> 00:23:19,749
- You've gotta fill...
- Charlie!

340
00:23:21,849 --> 00:23:24,349
Charlie.

341
00:23:30,689 --> 00:23:34,728
All right, damage control
has the area isolated and secure.

342
00:23:34,729 --> 00:23:37,648
The affected compartment
is shut tight and holding.

343
00:23:37,649 --> 00:23:41,168
Now, I want lifeboats ready
and a lifeboat drill scheduled.

344
00:23:41,169 --> 00:23:45,409
- The passengers will be briefed then.
- Right.

345
00:23:49,169 --> 00:23:51,669
Are you okay?

346
00:23:55,969 --> 00:23:59,728
You know, Charlie and I busted
51 bombs together in Vietnam.

347
00:23:59,729 --> 00:24:01,208
My God.

348
00:24:01,209 --> 00:24:04,048
Charlie used to put a little scratch
on the wall above our bunks

349
00:24:04,049 --> 00:24:06,408
every time we'd get back
from doing one.

350
00:24:06,409 --> 00:24:08,648
We used to tell anyone
who would listen

351
00:24:08,649 --> 00:24:10,448
that we were going for the record.

352
00:24:10,449 --> 00:24:14,808
The day we shipped out,
he counted them. Fifty-one.

353
00:24:14,809 --> 00:24:17,509
Then he laughed. Just laughed.

354
00:24:17,969 --> 00:24:19,848
I'm sorry.

355
00:24:19,849 --> 00:24:21,408
If we get out of this one,

356
00:24:21,409 --> 00:24:25,768
it's because Charlie found out number
52 in the split second before he died.

357
00:24:25,769 --> 00:24:29,168
- I don't understand it.
- He yelled "vacuum."

358
00:24:29,169 --> 00:24:31,488
That whole bomb is in a vacuum.

359
00:24:31,489 --> 00:24:36,008
The chemical is phosphorus,
triggered to explode when air hits it.

360
00:24:36,009 --> 00:24:38,569
The phosphorus flashed,

361
00:24:38,849 --> 00:24:42,448
tripped a thermocouple,
and that was that.

362
00:24:42,449 --> 00:24:44,928
But if the bomb is built
inside a vacuum,

363
00:24:44,929 --> 00:24:48,248
then there's no way you can take that
glass face off without air getting in.

364
00:24:48,249 --> 00:24:52,088
Unless I fill that vacuum
with something else.

365
00:24:52,089 --> 00:24:55,808
- Like?
- You got any neon signs on board?

366
00:24:55,809 --> 00:25:00,368
The search party found another one.
In the auxiliary power room.

367
00:25:00,369 --> 00:25:02,928
- You got two neon signs?
- This is becoming insane.

368
00:25:02,929 --> 00:25:05,528
- How many more can there be?
- Well, we're sure of the two,

369
00:25:05,529 --> 00:25:07,888
and there's no reason to believe
they're not in sequence,

370
00:25:07,889 --> 00:25:10,048
so we're gonna have to
disarm them simultaneously.

371
00:25:10,049 --> 00:25:14,208
I can't be in two places at once,
so I'm gonna need a new partner.

372
00:25:14,209 --> 00:25:17,048
- Any likely candidates onboard?
- Me.

373
00:25:17,049 --> 00:25:20,728
- I'll do it.
- Carole... I mean, captain.

374
00:25:20,729 --> 00:25:22,688
The whole ship is your responsibility.

375
00:25:22,689 --> 00:25:26,768
If those bombs go off,
there will be no ship to command.

376
00:25:26,769 --> 00:25:30,928
In any case, Mr Atkins,
you are fully competent to handle her.

377
00:25:30,929 --> 00:25:34,128
- Can we get started?
- Yes, ma'am.

378
00:25:34,129 --> 00:25:36,288
MacGyver, any objections?

379
00:25:36,289 --> 00:25:39,888
As long as you don't mind taking
orders instead of giving them, captain.

380
00:25:39,889 --> 00:25:42,483
I always bow to experts.

381
00:25:42,649 --> 00:25:48,439
And I think we can find a couple
of neon lights in the lounge.

382
00:25:50,649 --> 00:25:53,808
I'd say we're in
pretty good hands, Mr Atkins.

383
00:25:53,809 --> 00:25:56,309
Yes, sir.

384
00:26:16,609 --> 00:26:21,125
So we put the ransom money
in locker 324...

385
00:26:21,649 --> 00:26:25,848
...and then we pull the key.
How's our Viking man take delivery?

386
00:26:25,849 --> 00:26:28,848
He's probably already made
himself a duplicate.

387
00:26:28,849 --> 00:26:31,363
All right, let's go.

388
00:26:37,929 --> 00:26:41,248
- Hey. How about my carrying that?
- Why?

389
00:26:41,249 --> 00:26:44,608
I never lifted 6 million bucks before.
It would be a cheap thrill.

390
00:26:44,609 --> 00:26:47,208
I'll carry it. You keep thinking
about it. Out here.

391
00:26:47,209 --> 00:26:49,368
Oh, come on. Why?

392
00:26:49,369 --> 00:26:51,608
Why? Donahue has a dozen cops
covering this place...

393
00:26:51,609 --> 00:26:53,208
- Donahue's inside.
- Yeah?

394
00:26:53,209 --> 00:26:56,488
I'll be inside. We need one
of our men out here as a backup.

395
00:26:56,489 --> 00:26:59,079
And you're the lucky winner.

396
00:27:06,569 --> 00:27:08,928
Com check.

397
00:27:08,929 --> 00:27:11,429
Guess who.

398
00:27:12,289 --> 00:27:16,709
Heads up inside, Donahue.
The money's coming in.

399
00:27:21,169 --> 00:27:24,128
This is the last call
for Interstate service

400
00:27:24,129 --> 00:27:28,019
to San Francisco, Reno
and Salt Lake City.

401
00:27:28,169 --> 00:27:29,648
Boarding at gate three.

402
00:27:29,649 --> 00:27:32,528
I'm going out to the car. I'll call in
and check on that M.O. follow-up.

403
00:27:32,529 --> 00:27:34,208
Right.

404
00:27:34,209 --> 00:27:37,008
Boy, there's less than an hour to go.
Something has to give.

405
00:27:37,009 --> 00:27:41,479
Yeah. I'm just afraid
of what that something is.

406
00:27:42,569 --> 00:27:45,849
All right, let's stay alert, people.

407
00:27:50,729 --> 00:27:54,648
All right, captain, what we're gonna
do here is make a little fair exchange.

408
00:27:54,649 --> 00:27:58,528
What do you say we replace
the vacuum with a little neon gas.

409
00:27:58,529 --> 00:28:00,728
But I gotta admit, I was
a little surprised to see you

410
00:28:00,729 --> 00:28:02,928
in charge of this whole ship.

411
00:28:02,929 --> 00:28:05,048
No more than I, MacGyver.

412
00:28:05,049 --> 00:28:07,768
Everything happened
kind of fast around here.

413
00:28:07,769 --> 00:28:10,269
Just give me directions.

414
00:28:10,889 --> 00:28:12,808
First step:

415
00:28:12,809 --> 00:28:15,088
Take the sharpening stone
we got out of the bar

416
00:28:15,089 --> 00:28:20,589
and score a little piece of the neon
right at the very end.

417
00:28:20,689 --> 00:28:23,189
Here we go.

418
00:28:33,289 --> 00:28:35,688
Now...

419
00:28:35,689 --> 00:28:38,928
...before you break the tube,
make sure you got the cork handy

420
00:28:38,929 --> 00:28:41,768
to plug it so the gas doesn't escape.

421
00:28:41,769 --> 00:28:44,048
One step at a time, right?

422
00:28:44,049 --> 00:28:46,549
Right. I'm almost through.

423
00:28:53,489 --> 00:28:58,088
All right. Now break the tube
and plug it fast, like I just did.

424
00:28:58,089 --> 00:29:00,589
Okay.

425
00:29:03,729 --> 00:29:07,005
Done. I don't believe it.

426
00:29:08,009 --> 00:29:10,528
Now we're gonna work the tube
through the sealer.

427
00:29:10,529 --> 00:29:13,768
And when I pull the cork, hopefully
I'll get a momentary suction in.

428
00:29:13,769 --> 00:29:17,608
That ought to give us enough time
to get the phosphorus out of there.

429
00:29:17,609 --> 00:29:18,928
You with me, captain?

430
00:29:18,929 --> 00:29:21,728
Under the circumstances, MacGyver,
why don't you call me Carole?

431
00:29:21,729 --> 00:29:24,229
Okay, Carole.

432
00:29:25,329 --> 00:29:27,829
Nice and slow.

433
00:29:30,009 --> 00:29:32,509
I'll go first.

434
00:29:44,089 --> 00:29:46,608
I'm working the silicon sealer now.

435
00:29:46,609 --> 00:29:50,688
The glass tube is maintaining
an airtight penetration.

436
00:29:50,689 --> 00:29:53,965
Easy. Real easy.

437
00:29:54,129 --> 00:29:56,128
Just about through.

438
00:29:56,129 --> 00:29:58,629
This is the tricky part.

439
00:30:02,449 --> 00:30:04,949
Okay, I'm in.

440
00:30:05,889 --> 00:30:10,779
Now I can pop the cork
against the edge of the dish.

441
00:30:13,129 --> 00:30:16,648
Cork's out. Neon gas exchange
has given me the vacuum.

442
00:30:16,649 --> 00:30:18,688
It's working.

443
00:30:18,689 --> 00:30:22,819
It's extracting the phosphorus
from the dish.

444
00:30:23,609 --> 00:30:26,768
I have an environmental exchange
in the bomb cavity.

445
00:30:26,769 --> 00:30:29,269
The dish is empty.

446
00:30:30,849 --> 00:30:34,168
Removing the tube,
dumping the phosphorus.

447
00:30:34,169 --> 00:30:36,839
Okay, Carole. It's your turn.

448
00:30:37,089 --> 00:30:39,568
Now, work the tube through slowly.

449
00:30:39,569 --> 00:30:44,248
Keep moving it forward until you
get through the silicon sealer.

450
00:30:44,249 --> 00:30:46,328
I'm petrified, Mac.

451
00:30:46,329 --> 00:30:50,488
Hey, come on. Who's better than us?
You can do it.

452
00:30:50,489 --> 00:30:54,429
I'm about to break through
the inner seal.

453
00:30:56,009 --> 00:30:58,523
Okay, Mac, I'm through.

454
00:30:59,009 --> 00:31:03,161
Good. Now go to the dish
and pop the cork.

455
00:31:06,009 --> 00:31:10,528
Got it. I'm in the dish.
It's sucking up the chemicals, Mac.

456
00:31:10,529 --> 00:31:14,088
I think it's gonna work.
I'm gonna make it. I know I am.

457
00:31:14,089 --> 00:31:16,589
Come on, come on.

458
00:31:18,129 --> 00:31:20,248
Almost there.

459
00:31:20,249 --> 00:31:22,749
Okay, got it.

460
00:31:22,889 --> 00:31:28,528
Well, that's one small step for local
Mankind, and still a mile to go.

461
00:31:28,529 --> 00:31:31,488
That thermocouple is German-made.
Boltex.

462
00:31:31,489 --> 00:31:33,768
If you guys want to check it out
in the bomber file,

463
00:31:33,769 --> 00:31:36,288
we'll get on to this blue cauldron
on top of the bomb.

464
00:31:36,289 --> 00:31:40,368
- You've got less than an hour now.
- Yeah, tell me about it.

465
00:31:40,369 --> 00:31:45,159
- You guys any closer to this Viking?
- Not an inch.

466
00:31:46,609 --> 00:31:49,109
Stay with them.

467
00:31:49,209 --> 00:31:53,128
Mr Thornton, this is Viking.
Despite your efforts to ensnare me

468
00:31:53,129 --> 00:31:55,568
at the bus station, I have the money.

469
00:31:55,569 --> 00:31:58,728
But you have dealt in bad faith,
so I have decided not to give you

470
00:31:58,729 --> 00:32:01,248
the bomb-disarming instructions.

471
00:32:01,249 --> 00:32:03,648
Goodbye, Mr Thornton.

472
00:32:03,649 --> 00:32:06,149
That's it.

473
00:32:08,769 --> 00:32:11,128
Control to field operations, come in.

474
00:32:11,129 --> 00:32:14,048
Control, this is Carlysle. Go ahead.

475
00:32:14,049 --> 00:32:16,888
But we haven't taken our eyes off it.

476
00:32:16,889 --> 00:32:18,568
Harrison, get this place locked down.

477
00:32:18,569 --> 00:32:20,728
There's a rumour the $6 million's
already gone.

478
00:32:20,729 --> 00:32:22,928
I'm on it.

479
00:32:22,929 --> 00:32:24,088
What is it?

480
00:32:24,089 --> 00:32:27,979
Thornton says that Viking's
got the money.

481
00:32:34,609 --> 00:32:37,109
The money's gone.

482
00:32:49,969 --> 00:32:51,968
He went in through here.
There's a utility room

483
00:32:51,969 --> 00:32:54,128
in the back of the station, you know?

484
00:32:54,129 --> 00:32:55,528
So nobody saw him, huh?

485
00:32:55,529 --> 00:32:58,368
No, no, no. He had this thing
set up from square one.

486
00:32:58,369 --> 00:33:01,328
He had a false back, hidden panel.

487
00:33:01,329 --> 00:33:03,368
It was a nice, neat job, huh?

488
00:33:03,369 --> 00:33:07,808
There's a false back on the locker.
Goes into the back room.

489
00:33:07,809 --> 00:33:11,088
Viking must have had the money
two minutes after we put it in there.

490
00:33:11,089 --> 00:33:12,888
He is smart.

491
00:33:12,889 --> 00:33:15,088
He's too damn smart.

492
00:33:15,089 --> 00:33:16,968
Mac?

493
00:33:16,969 --> 00:33:20,803
I got some bad news. Real bad.

494
00:33:21,049 --> 00:33:24,448
Viking somehow outmanoeuvered
us with the ransom.

495
00:33:24,449 --> 00:33:27,488
He got it out of the locker
in the bus station.

496
00:33:27,489 --> 00:33:29,728
We had it staked out,
but we didn't get him.

497
00:33:29,729 --> 00:33:33,608
He just called, gloating about it.

498
00:33:33,809 --> 00:33:36,128
But worse than that...

499
00:33:36,129 --> 00:33:39,608
...he says that we broke faith
by trying to trap him,

500
00:33:39,609 --> 00:33:42,168
so now he's really gonna punish us.

501
00:33:42,169 --> 00:33:44,729
He's got the $6 million,

502
00:33:44,889 --> 00:33:48,448
but he's not gonna tell us
how to deactivate the bombs.

503
00:33:48,449 --> 00:33:50,848
He's gonna let everybody
on that ship die.

504
00:33:50,849 --> 00:33:54,524
So the bottom line, Mac:

505
00:33:55,169 --> 00:33:57,669
It's up to you now.

506
00:34:17,809 --> 00:34:23,042
Okay. Here's where we find out
just how good Viking is.

507
00:34:24,529 --> 00:34:28,408
This pipework in that blue cauldron
looked like our last trigger.

508
00:34:28,409 --> 00:34:30,408
Can I tell you, I haven't
got the smallest hint

509
00:34:30,409 --> 00:34:33,848
- of what I'm looking at here.
- Well, you're doing just great.

510
00:34:33,849 --> 00:34:36,349
And you're not alone.

511
00:34:39,449 --> 00:34:40,728
All right, now.

512
00:34:40,729 --> 00:34:44,568
I'm touching the right-hand connection
at the circuit boards.

513
00:34:44,569 --> 00:34:47,069
Read you.

514
00:34:47,529 --> 00:34:50,029
- Mac, freeze it.
- What?

515
00:34:50,329 --> 00:34:52,488
The computer says
the Ling Chow bomber

516
00:34:52,489 --> 00:34:56,288
used an unstable electrolyte fluid
trigger on two sabotage attempts

517
00:34:56,289 --> 00:34:58,488
in Cam Ranh Bay, 1973.

518
00:34:58,489 --> 00:35:02,328
- What does that mean?
- The fluid carries a current.

519
00:35:02,329 --> 00:35:05,288
Now our problem is to neutralize it.

520
00:35:05,289 --> 00:35:07,789
Donahue.

521
00:35:09,969 --> 00:35:12,728
No, this doesn't ring any bells.

522
00:35:12,729 --> 00:35:14,248
Are you sure?

523
00:35:14,249 --> 00:35:16,288
You commanded the lead
sabotage control group

524
00:35:16,289 --> 00:35:18,208
in Cam Ranh Bay, '71 to '73.

525
00:35:18,209 --> 00:35:21,128
Well, yeah, but I didn't
ride them all personally.

526
00:35:21,129 --> 00:35:23,288
This one...

527
00:35:23,289 --> 00:35:24,888
All right.

528
00:35:24,889 --> 00:35:28,408
Mac, hold on a second.
This could be an acid mixture.

529
00:35:28,409 --> 00:35:29,928
Yeah, that's what I figured.

530
00:35:29,929 --> 00:35:32,408
Breach the piping circuit,
and you release the acid.

531
00:35:32,409 --> 00:35:35,768
And we'd release the acid
into this lateral wiring.

532
00:35:35,769 --> 00:35:39,968
- Yeah. Probably create a short.
- I understand.

533
00:35:39,969 --> 00:35:41,928
All right, Carole,
I've got an idea here.

534
00:35:41,929 --> 00:35:44,768
But we're gonna need some things.
For both of us.

535
00:35:44,769 --> 00:35:46,448
Name them.

536
00:35:46,449 --> 00:35:51,488
Let's see. A pastry tube,
a container of liquid oven cleaner,

537
00:35:51,489 --> 00:35:54,688
- and a pint of milk, please.
- Milk?

538
00:35:54,689 --> 00:35:57,728
- Yeah, low-fat, if you got it.
- Mr Atkins?

539
00:35:57,729 --> 00:36:00,168
- Ma'am?
- You heard Mr MacGyver.

540
00:36:00,169 --> 00:36:04,459
Pastry tubes, oven cleaner,
low-fat milk. Move.

541
00:36:04,609 --> 00:36:06,848
On the double. Aye, aye, captain.

542
00:36:06,849 --> 00:36:08,728
MacGyver, milk?

543
00:36:08,729 --> 00:36:12,048
Add a strong alkaline base
in an organic neutral,

544
00:36:12,049 --> 00:36:15,448
- if it's an acid, we're in business.
- What if you're wrong?

545
00:36:15,449 --> 00:36:19,759
Well, then it's back
to the old drawing board.

546
00:36:22,769 --> 00:36:25,968
All right, Carole, this is the best
we have to work with.

547
00:36:25,969 --> 00:36:30,808
Let's just think of it as one giant dose
of industrial-strength antacid.

548
00:36:30,809 --> 00:36:37,189
First, the milk. About three-quarters
full should do it. You got that?

549
00:36:37,769 --> 00:36:39,288
Yeah, I got it.

550
00:36:39,289 --> 00:36:43,168
Now I'm gonna top it off
with the oven cleaner.

551
00:36:43,169 --> 00:36:44,928
And you do the same.

552
00:36:44,929 --> 00:36:47,429
And mix it up real good.

553
00:36:47,569 --> 00:36:51,562
Okay, it's mixed. Cap's going on.

554
00:36:51,809 --> 00:36:53,888
Ready on this end, Mac.

555
00:36:53,889 --> 00:36:58,208
All right, time check.
Nineteen minutes and 41 seconds.

556
00:36:58,209 --> 00:37:00,088
And counting.

557
00:37:00,089 --> 00:37:02,408
Now I'm gonna pry
up the lead-glass stopper seal

558
00:37:02,409 --> 00:37:05,568
on top of the number one cylinder,
upper right quadrant.

559
00:37:05,569 --> 00:37:08,069
Right.

560
00:37:13,489 --> 00:37:16,719
Okay, Carole, this is probably acid,

561
00:37:16,849 --> 00:37:21,239
so just wait until I get
the stopper seals off.

562
00:37:22,849 --> 00:37:24,848
There's the first one.

563
00:37:24,849 --> 00:37:28,309
It's acid, all right. I can smell it.

564
00:37:28,489 --> 00:37:31,242
Now, number two.

565
00:37:33,169 --> 00:37:38,808
Okay, Carole, go ahead and remove
your number one stopper seal.

566
00:37:38,809 --> 00:37:42,168
Mac, is anything happening
with your acid level?

567
00:37:42,169 --> 00:37:44,669
It seems to be okay.

568
00:37:44,849 --> 00:37:46,648
I've removed number two.
You done yet?

569
00:37:46,649 --> 00:37:49,402
Just about got it.

570
00:37:55,409 --> 00:37:58,248
All right, Carole, I'm putting
the first dose of neutralizer

571
00:37:58,249 --> 00:38:01,609
into the acid in cylinder number one.

572
00:38:04,049 --> 00:38:06,549
Cylinder two.

573
00:38:09,409 --> 00:38:11,949
There's a reaction starting.

574
00:38:13,409 --> 00:38:15,968
All right, all four are treated.

575
00:38:15,969 --> 00:38:17,888
How you doing?

576
00:38:17,889 --> 00:38:20,389
Okay.

577
00:38:20,689 --> 00:38:24,568
I am now removing
the final stopper seal.

578
00:38:30,649 --> 00:38:33,088
Stopper seal's off.

579
00:38:33,089 --> 00:38:35,168
Good job, captain.

580
00:38:35,169 --> 00:38:37,768
Now inject our
milk-and-oven-cleaner mixture

581
00:38:37,769 --> 00:38:40,567
- into the acid.
- Roger.

582
00:38:40,929 --> 00:38:43,429
Am doing.

583
00:38:48,129 --> 00:38:50,629
I have reactions.

584
00:38:51,209 --> 00:38:53,909
All four cylinders are cloudy.

585
00:39:03,369 --> 00:39:05,168
Yeah, mine too.

586
00:39:05,169 --> 00:39:08,368
Now we wait,
and keep our thumbs crossed.

587
00:39:08,369 --> 00:39:11,488
Bridge, this is the captain.
I want the compartment doors

588
00:39:11,489 --> 00:39:13,728
dog shut on myself
and Mr MacGyver.

589
00:39:13,729 --> 00:39:16,208
Have Engineering brace them.

590
00:39:16,209 --> 00:39:19,888
If the bombs blow, hopefully
we'll confine the explosion.

591
00:39:19,889 --> 00:39:21,848
- Ma'am.
- Mr Atkins,

592
00:39:21,849 --> 00:39:24,728
- this is no time for conversation.
- Will do, captain.

593
00:39:24,729 --> 00:39:26,288
What do you think, Donahue?

594
00:39:26,289 --> 00:39:28,328
Seems like we might be
on the right track.

595
00:39:28,329 --> 00:39:30,648
Well, I am impressed.
You just may have licked it.

596
00:39:30,649 --> 00:39:35,168
Didn't your boys do a postmortem
on this acid trigger in Nam?

597
00:39:35,169 --> 00:39:37,608
Well, sure we did, but there
wasn't much left after she blew.

598
00:39:37,609 --> 00:39:39,328
We ended up
with a lot of guesswork.

599
00:39:39,329 --> 00:39:42,168
That's too bad.
I'd sure like to know if I'm right.

600
00:39:42,169 --> 00:39:45,819
Well, we'll know
in about five minutes.

601
00:39:45,929 --> 00:39:49,208
Hey, Pete, don't forget, you and I
have got a little golf match

602
00:39:49,209 --> 00:39:51,488
as soon as this job is over.

603
00:39:51,489 --> 00:39:56,888
Yeah, right. And I'm gonna spot you
a stroke a hole, buddy.

604
00:39:56,889 --> 00:40:00,168
I'm gonna check in with HQ.
Keep monitoring.

605
00:40:00,169 --> 00:40:02,669
Yeah, I will.

606
00:40:07,889 --> 00:40:09,928
Mac? What's up?

607
00:40:09,929 --> 00:40:12,728
- We clear?
- Yeah, we're on a separate channel.

608
00:40:12,729 --> 00:40:16,808
Come on. You never played a round
of golf in your entire misspent life.

609
00:40:16,809 --> 00:40:19,448
- What's up?
- Listen, I got a notion here.

610
00:40:19,449 --> 00:40:23,528
Can you check out that incident
at Cam Ranh Bay in '73?

611
00:40:23,529 --> 00:40:26,168
Yeah, sure I can. What is it?

612
00:40:26,169 --> 00:40:29,128
Well, this is a great piece of
booby-trap rigging.

613
00:40:29,129 --> 00:40:31,368
And I mean good.

614
00:40:31,369 --> 00:40:34,808
But anything this fine usually
has a personal signature to it.

615
00:40:34,809 --> 00:40:37,568
It's not technology, it's art.

616
00:40:37,569 --> 00:40:40,845
Art? MacGyver, it's a damn bomb.

617
00:40:41,049 --> 00:40:43,288
You just lack artistic taste.

618
00:40:43,289 --> 00:40:45,648
Just crosscheck them for me,
will you, Pete?

619
00:40:45,649 --> 00:40:48,928
Phosphorus, thermocouple,
an acid trigger.

620
00:40:48,929 --> 00:40:50,848
Who ran into them in Nam?

621
00:40:50,849 --> 00:40:53,528
Yeah, it could be anybody
on a decon team.

622
00:40:53,529 --> 00:40:57,368
Yeah, but who was on each
of these? All of them?

623
00:40:57,369 --> 00:41:00,128
You might be able to narrow it down
to a couple of names.

624
00:41:00,129 --> 00:41:02,909
- Or maybe just one.
- Viking.

625
00:41:03,289 --> 00:41:05,883
Okay, Mac, I'm on it.

626
00:41:07,889 --> 00:41:10,048
- MacGyver?
- Yeah?

627
00:41:10,049 --> 00:41:15,008
I can see a definite change
in the fluid. Is that what we want?

628
00:41:15,009 --> 00:41:18,365
Absolutely. It's neutralizing.

629
00:41:25,569 --> 00:41:28,606
- It's clear.
- Okay.

630
00:41:29,089 --> 00:41:33,368
Okay, everybody,
last step coming up. Stand by.

631
00:41:33,369 --> 00:41:35,869
I'm draining it now.

632
00:42:06,809 --> 00:42:09,309
Mac, everything stopped.

633
00:42:09,969 --> 00:42:12,767
Okay. We did it.

634
00:42:21,449 --> 00:42:23,928
They did it.

635
00:42:23,929 --> 00:42:26,328
MacGyver nailed that sucker.
Congratulations.

636
00:42:26,329 --> 00:42:28,829
He sure did.

637
00:42:29,169 --> 00:42:32,128
Listen, I gotta notify my people.
Stay on top of this, will you?

638
00:42:32,129 --> 00:42:34,629
You got it.

639
00:42:40,329 --> 00:42:41,808
- Mac?
- What is it, Pete?

640
00:42:41,809 --> 00:42:43,888
We're back on the separate channel.

641
00:42:43,889 --> 00:42:47,568
The computer ran your pattern.
Came up with one name.

642
00:42:47,569 --> 00:42:49,968
- Want a guess?
- Try me.

643
00:42:49,969 --> 00:42:53,008
Viking had to be familiar
with each of these trigger traps.

644
00:42:53,009 --> 00:42:56,797
Especially the acid
in Cam Ranh Bay.

645
00:42:58,009 --> 00:43:01,568
- Is that where Donahue lost his leg?
- Yeah.

646
00:43:01,569 --> 00:43:04,328
If you knew, why did you bother
with the computer check?

647
00:43:04,329 --> 00:43:07,568
Oh, it gave us proof.
All I had was a hunch.

648
00:43:07,569 --> 00:43:10,481
Well, it nails Donahue.

649
00:43:18,249 --> 00:43:22,139
- Pete, get back on the com line.
- Right.

650
00:43:44,329 --> 00:43:46,368
Carole, get the panel off now.

651
00:43:46,369 --> 00:43:51,869
We have to get to the bottom
of the bomb. It's reactivated.

652
00:43:52,729 --> 00:43:57,608
Okay, Mac, I see what looks like
two fuses. A yellow and blue.

653
00:43:57,609 --> 00:43:58,968
Yeah.

654
00:43:58,969 --> 00:44:01,888
- One cuts the circuit and one fires it.
- Which?

655
00:44:01,889 --> 00:44:03,808
- Donahue?
- Right here.

656
00:44:03,809 --> 00:44:06,968
I'm stuck. I got less than a minute.
I need some help.

657
00:44:06,969 --> 00:44:10,208
We've got all the pieces of Viking's
signature right here in the bomb.

658
00:44:10,209 --> 00:44:13,440
Stop it, and we stop him. Come on.

659
00:44:13,609 --> 00:44:16,328
I've never made this kind of call
without Charlie. We'd team it.

660
00:44:16,329 --> 00:44:18,829
Two heads. Both experts.

661
00:44:18,849 --> 00:44:22,208
Help me, Donahue. Help me,
and we'll stop this guy.

662
00:44:22,209 --> 00:44:25,648
What's your head and your gut say?
Yellow or blue?

663
00:44:25,649 --> 00:44:27,288
Come on, Donahue.
You've been there.

664
00:44:27,289 --> 00:44:28,728
You can make a judgment call.

665
00:44:28,729 --> 00:44:32,459
There are 1,100 people
aboard this ship.

666
00:44:34,609 --> 00:44:37,109
Blue.

667
00:44:37,649 --> 00:44:42,128
Carole, hold it. In my tracks, captain.
I go first, just in case.

668
00:44:42,129 --> 00:44:43,528
Pull the blue!

669
00:44:43,529 --> 00:44:47,789
Thanks a lot, Donahue.
I'm pulling the yellow.

670
00:44:48,049 --> 00:44:50,549
No!

671
00:44:52,249 --> 00:44:54,749
Yellow, Carole. Yank it!

672
00:45:04,369 --> 00:45:06,869
Viking.

673
00:45:09,289 --> 00:45:11,789
Carole? How you doing?

674
00:45:12,649 --> 00:45:15,607
I think I'll live.

675
00:45:17,649 --> 00:45:20,149
Me too.

676
00:45:24,489 --> 00:45:26,989
Get him out of my sight.

677
00:45:35,249 --> 00:45:40,248
Your chopper will be here in an hour.
Do you have to go?

678
00:45:40,249 --> 00:45:43,248
- Well...
- I can recommend the cruise.

679
00:45:43,249 --> 00:45:46,808
Gourmet cuisine, sports and games,
dancing every night.

680
00:45:46,809 --> 00:45:52,069
It's a great place to relax
if you've been under stress.

681
00:45:53,049 --> 00:45:55,549
Well...

682
00:45:56,329 --> 00:46:00,319
...do I get to sit
at the captain's table?
