MacGyver: After three weeks

above the arctic circle
monitoring whale migration,

I truly felt there was
no place like home.

No howling subzero
winds, no shifting ice,

no wandering polar bears.

No Sushi sandwiches.

Just the simple comforts
of my own domain.

Jack?

Yo, MacGyver. You're home.

Just in time, I might add.

I can't quite figure
out how slide bolt b

Fits through flap
hydraulic a-b-left.

Or is it slide bolt a
that goes through flap

hydraulic q-s-right?

Jack...

Jack, what are you doing?

What do you mean?

I mean, it isn't obvious?

Gee, I thought it was
really starting to take shape.

I can see it's a plane.

Oh, then I am making progress.

What did you do to your finger?

Frostbite. Forget my finger.

Look at my place!

All my stuff...

You know, you,
you are unbelievable.

I let you stay here
for three weeks

And you turn my place
into a... a plane hangar!

Hey, take it easy, MacGyver.

It's no big thing.

You see, it's an ultra-light.

The wings are
collapsible, removable.

The engine and the carriage

will go right out through
your front door, no problemo.

Good, fine, show me.

Now!

Boy! Testy, testy.

( Knocking )

- Anybody home?
- Pardone me...

Hey, hey, gertie.

Well, look what
the cat dragged in.

Now, now, be nice,
or I'll buy a mean dog.

Whatcha got?

What you owe.

Looks like they
all found you, Jack.

Time to move again...

MacGyver: Bye, gertie.

Bye.

Batteries.

Dirty, stinking batteries
in my refrigerator!

That's it. You're out of here.

If I have to get a court order

to get you banned from
these premises, I will...

Do it.

Jack?

It's him.

It's him, gotta be.

Him who?

My father.

There he is in the cap, see?

Recognize the good
looks? I know I do.

That kind of says it all.

"Jack,

"I wish you could
have known your father

"and he could have known you.

"unfortunately, the war
in Korea took him away

"from all of us too soon.

"I know that what I loved in him

"Must surely be a part of you.

God bless you and keep you."

"A friend?"

So my old man's dead.

That answers that.

What? You didn't know?

I never even knew what
he looked like till now.

Jack, I don't understand.

Eh, I'm not sure I do, either.

Why is she doing this?

Why, after 37 years?

Who are you talking about?

My mother, who else?

What kind of friend writes
a letter like that, huh?

What kind of friend
would send four packages

In ten days...

All of them with your
father's personal effects.

Look at this, MacGyver.

Look at this. You see this?

"Captain Jack Dalton, senior."

Must have been
some kind of hero, huh?

I got this cap about
three years ago.

Before that, zip.

Then this stuff starts
arriving in the mail.

You don't understand?

I don't understand.

I never did.

Jack, who were those people
you were living with in high school?

Foster parents.

Nice people.

And what happened
to your real mom?

I never knew her.

She, uh...

She gave me up for adoption
while I was still in diapers.

Why didn't you tell
me any of this before?

Too busy aggravating
you, I guess.

No. I...

I just sort of...

Pushed it all over to
the dark side of my brain

a long time ago.

I... didn't need to
keep reminding myself

I wasn't good enough to keep.

Well, I don't buy that.

Read between the lines, Jack.

If this "friend"
really is your mother,

It's obvious she's
trying to reach out.

Hah! Reach out?

Isn't it a little late for that?

I don't know. Is it?

Thornton: My sources
at the Pentagon

Confirmed the I.D.
Number on the bomber.

The pilot, captain Jack Dalton,

Was assigned to the fifth air
force's 67th flight squadron.

The plane was shot
down over Kim po airfield,

January 8, 1951.

"captain Dalton was, uh...
Posthumously awarded

"the distinguished flying cross

"for staying at the
controls of his plane

"until his three
surviving crewmen,

greer, zisco and
akers, could bail out."

Well, dad, you did good.

Anything in there
about a wife and son?

Yes.

Uh, it says that there
was a wife and that, uh,

she put in for
maternity benefits

at lakeland military hospital.

A child was born... February 3,

1951.

But there's no
further documentation.

What was my mother's name?

Come on, Pete.

Your mother's name
is Francine Dalton.

Francine? Francine!

The foxy lady
painted on the bomber!

Jack, Mrs. Francine
leyland Dalton

is a fugitive from justice.

And she has been for
the past three years.

What?

On what charge?

She was arrested

along with her employer,
an investment broker,

named Arthur bandel.

He was indicted as the kingpin

of a multi-million
dollar stock swindle.

It says here your mother
was charged as co-conspirator.

She, uh, jumped
bail after arraignment.

My mother a wanted felon.

What a day.

And from everything I've read,

this Arthur bandel has
used every legal means

at his disposal to keep
this thing from going to court

for the past three years.

It seems like, uh, neither one
of them wants to face the music.

Yeah. Well, so much for him.

And so much for dear old mom.

If the law can't find
her, we never will.

Well, if you wanted to try,

you might start by paying
a visit to the bondsman

who put up her bail.

Might find out something.

Yeah, that's a good idea.

Mothers.

Sometimes they're more trouble
than they're worth, you know?

Jack?

Is she more trouble
than she's worth?

Or do you want to
dig a little deeper?

I'm here to help if you want.

Thanks.

I didn't punch the cop, you did.

I didn't set the
bail, the judge did.

The bond is ten
grand, you got it?

A personal check? Get real!

I want cash or
your pink slip, bozo!

You can go right in.

Then fine, enjoy
life on the inside.

Make new friends.

( Slams phone )

Needle-neck jerk!

Felony or misdemeanor?

Uh, neither.

I'm Jack Dalton.

This is my friend Mr. MacGyver.

What do you want?

Francine Dalton.

Well, you ain't alone
on that score, pal.

That whacked-out,
double-crossing broad

is gonna cost me a hundred
g's on a forfeited bond.

That "broad" happens
to be my mother.

Your mother, huh? My apologies.

Mr. Ricco, all we want
is some information.

You put up the bail for her
and Arthur bandel, right?

Yeah, and she skipped.

For three years, I've been
out a whole lot of money,

which I stand to
lose permanently

if she doesn't
show up for trial.

Wait a minute, the bandel
case is going to trial?

Set for the 17th.

That's Monday.
Today is Saturday.

That's not much time, is it?

Do you have a copy of
the police custody record?

Sweetheart,

Do you think you can
find the Dalton file?

Sometime today?

All ready for Monday, Marty.

So, whatcha looking for?

Hot tip?

Let me guess.

The phone number of
the person she called

the night she was arrested.

Am I right?

Sam greer.

You know him?

Lives in lakeland. Owns
a bar... the wingman.

We checked him out
right after she skipped.

He loaned her some
traveling money. End of story.

Thanks, Mr. Ricco.

We'll let you know if
we find anything else.

You do that.

Look!

If you can somehow
manage to bring her in,

in the next 48 hours...

I'll pay you the same commission

I'd pay any licensed
bounty hunter.

You're a very sick man, Marty.

Let's go, MacGyver.

Stay in touch, you hear?

Colton! What's up?

I heard it all, Marty.

Francine Dalton is mine.

Sam greer.

That's our lead, Jack.

They've already checked him out.

Sam "sparky" greer was
on your dad's bomber crew.

It's all in that file
that Pete gave us.

Old Marty in there
doesn't seem to know

that your dad
saved greer's life.

Hey, maybe sparky's
the friend that mailed

all my dad's photos
and medals and stuff,

you think?

Maybe.

Let's get to the
wingman and find out.

Colton: Sam greer's a dead end.

He told me nothing.

But you ain't
Francine Dalton's son.

Now, if you want
to cop your fee,

you'll follow her boy
out there, find her,

And bring her back here
before midnight Sunday.

You got that?

They're moving.

Dawn, I'm on a bromo run.

( Phone rings )

Yes?

Hi, Mr. Bandel. This is dawn.

Do you remember that
fur coat you promised me?

I just earned it.

What do you have, dawn?

A couple of very
interesting people

paid a call on Marty.

One of them was
a Mr. Jack Dalton.

He says he's
Francine Dalton's son.

Francine Dalton has a son?

Surprised me, too.

W-Where is he?

A bar in lakeland,

called the wingman.

Marty seems to think
they're going to look

this guy up, Sam greer.

Dawn... dawn,
did I ever tell you,

you... you are beautiful?

No.

( Dial tone )

Ken, David, come in here.

( Door opens )

Yes, sir?

Good, Kenny.

Francine Dalton.

For three years, she's had
a noose around my neck,

and now I think I
can do something.

I've finally got some leverage.

Seems she has a son.

Jack Dalton.

I want you to go over
to lakeland to this bar

and find him, and
bring him back to me.

And what about
Francine Dalton, sir?

Do we take her out?

No, Dave.

Francine Dalton has evidence

Detrimental to
Mr. Bandel's case.

The idea is to trade
the evidence for her son.

Am I right, sir?

Yeah, that's right, Kenny.

Now, stay clear of Francine.

We don't want her to
push any panic button.

And if he finds his
mother, all right, fine.

Let them get together
for a final family reunion.

Then... bring Jack Dalton to me.

( Country music playing )

( Conversation and laughter )

( Coughing )

How you doing?

- Man: Let me get that one.
- How's everything?

The wingman bar.

You've got to love it.

Gad, I'd almost stay grounded

to own a joint like this.

Jack...

Take a look behind the bar.

I think I need a drink.

Woman: Let me have
three drafts, a scotch,

And one Irish up.

Thank you, sparky.

What can I do for you boys?

A "hello" would be nice, sparky.

I'm Jack Dalton,

Jack and Francine Dalton's son.

Jack, my god,

if you aren't the
spitting image!

Dalton: This is my
friend, MacGyver.

Hi.

Well, how'd you
boys track me down?

Well, you are the friend

That sent my dad's things
along to me, aren't you?

Yes sirree, that's me.

Do you always sign
your notes, "a friend"?

Oh, listen, I-I
just felt it was...

Best to pass along
the stuff anonymously.

I... I didn't know
if it was gonna

Upset you or make you proud.

But you should be proud.

Your father was the
salt of the earth, son.

He gave his life to,
uh... Save mine and...

Ernie's and bud's.

Well,

anyway, now that you found me,

How about a drink...
On the house?

H-two-oh on the
rocks for my friend,

and I'll have whatever my
mom's drinking these days.

She, um...

Used to drink Irish.

Straight up, as I recall.

Dalton: You seen her, heard

from her at all lately?

Greer: No. Not for a while.

How long would
that be, Mr. Greer?

About three years?

Mr. Greer, we know
Francine Dalton called you

The day she was arrested.

And we know it would
be next to impossible

for you to have
tracked down Jack

On your own.

Sparky, she's my mother.

For better or worse, I
just want to meet her.

Come on, sparky,
you said yourself

you owed my dad one, a big one.

Sparky: And I'm
honoring that, believe me.

Look...

I can tell you this.

Your mother is

Alive and well and safe.

And if you want
to keep it that way,

Then just leave it alone.

Jack?

I think we found her.

Upstairs?

Too late boys.

Last hand of the day. Sorry.

Well, that's a straight.

Ace high.

Say good night, everybody.

Man: Next time, franny.

Next time, make it
interesting, Charlie.

Bring more cash.

Yeah, sure thing.

Hey, Nick, I'll buy
you a beer. Hang on.

Man: Great.

( Sighs )

MacGyver: Francine Dalton?

Fran leyland. You
got the wrong address.

No, I don't.

I'm Jack junior.

I'm... your son.

I don't have a son.

Yeah, you do.

Leyland's your maiden name.

You're Francine Dalton.

You married Jack Dalton.

He died, you had a son.

You gave him up
for adoption in 1951.

Well, you did your homework.

So what do you
want, a gold star?

How about hello?

I said good-bye to
you a long time ago.

So that's it?

Over and out.

No regrets, huh?

Look, is that why you came here?

To see a guilt-ridden old woman?

Are you saying you had nothing
to do with contacting Jack?

You didn't send
along his father's pins,

Medals, photos
these last few days?

That weak-kneed,
sentimental old fool sparky

did that without asking me.

Look, I'm sorry he wasted

your time.

And mine.

Hey, mom, So am I.

MacGyver: Jack.

Hey, Jack!

Count your money later.

I want to know what kind
of mother gives up her son

Twice in one lifetime.

Look, if you're his friend,
don't make a scene.

Just take him away from
here and keep him away.

Maybe what I should do
is take you to the police.

That is the last
thing you want to do.

Look, I don't think
you understand.

I am trying to save his life.

And mine.

What are you talking about?

It's none of your business.

Just leave it alone.

It's my problem.

Does that problem include...

( Sighs )

Arthur bandel?

Oh, you two have really done
your homework, haven't you?

Yeah.

Arthur bandel.

The man wants me dead,

and the only reason I'm not
is that I'm holding evidence,

Evidence that
would put him away.

But the justice department
can't get a conviction without it.

And I won't be harmed
as long as I've got it.

Bandel's afraid to come near me.

But if he finds out
that I've got a son...

he's gonna hunt him down,

and he's gonna
use him against me.

And I will not allow
that to happen.

Now do you understand?

Yeah.

I understand.

But you got to make
Jack understand.

You can't leave
him hanging like this.

I am telling you I never
wanted to hurt him.

( Voice breaking ): I prayed
I would never hurt him again.

Then tell him the truth.

( Chamber clicking )

How'd it go with
your mother, Jack?

What do you think, Dave?

Look at him.

Go ahead, blow.

You'll feel better.

Who are you?

Bandel's escort service.

Please, no sudden moves.

I hate making a mess.

I hate when you do.

Come on, Jack, let's go.

Jack!

Who are those guys?

They're Arthur bandel's men.

They found out about Jack.

It's just what I was afraid of.

Colton: Francine, I've
been looking for you.

( Laughs )

( Chamber clicking )

There you go,

That ought to hold you.

- Ow!
- And I'll just take this knife.

Let me guess.

Marty ricco's
bounty hunter, right?

Only when the price is right.

And the price on her
head is gonna get me

out of this pitiful racket,

And into the island life.

Coconuts and hula girls.

That's where I'm headed, Jack.

Gee, that's great,
but, in the meantime,

two of bandel's men
just kidnapped my friend.

My son.

Not my problem.

Francine!

Sparky!

Why don't you go
fix somebody a drink?

Move!

( Laughs )

Hey.

Now, listen to me.

That man is going to take
evidence to the authorities,

and as soon as he does
that, my son's gonna be killed.

Cry me a river, lady.

Francine, what are
you talking about?

Sparky is my safety valve.

He has instructions

to take a computer
disc with the evidence

against bandel to
the justice department.

Bandel will kill
Jack just to spite me.

We've got to stop sparky.

MacGyver: Hey, uh...

How about letting me go?

( Laughs )

What do I look like, some
kind of rookie to you, pal?

Ain't nobody ever come
back to bushwhack me

before a delivery,

And I ain't about to let
it start happening now.

her, she'll get blown away.

Shoot her.

Go ahead and shoot her.

Price on her
head is just as high

whether she's dead
or alive. Shoot her!

Jack: Come on, you
got what you want.

Leave her, take me.

No, I think I'll just
keep her with me.

Oh, come on, bandel.

You're over your head, now.

Money's one thing, but murder

And kidnapping
is something else.

Give it up.

Colton: Man makes good sense.

I'd listen to him.

In fact, I'd jump
all over that idea.

Bandel: Now I'm
warning you, stay back.

Stay back!

That's it.

On your feet.

Thank you.

Well... payday.

Uh, Colton...

Why don't you give
them a couple of minutes?

They've waited
37 years for this.

"To my friends...

"Thanks again for
making it happen.

"If you're ever craving
chocolate macadamia nuts,

come and look me
up. Jesse Colton."

Now that Colton
is one happy fella.

How about that bandel?

Now there's one unhappy fella.

I don't know.

Federal prison is a good place

for a guy as
industrious as Arthur.

He might even amount to
something in 20 or 30 years.

So how about you?

What's it like to know

there's nobody looking
over your shoulder?

Well, for one thing

it makes you want to look
ahead instead of behind.

I, uh, haven't got much
experience as a mother.

I hope you're going
to be patient with me.

Are you kidding?

I've never really been
anybody's son before, either.

We'll fake it.

Deal.
