Original subtitles

Sis, it's me, Terry.

Lila?

Oh!

It's okay. Who did this, hmm?

Who did this?

I should've listened to you.

Oh, no...

He's crazy.

No, no, don't die!

Please...

Please, don't die!

I'm going to get on the horn.

Mac, come in.

I am in. Did you get anything on that watchmaker?

He's still in custody, and he's still not talking.

It's kind of an interesting looking clock shop.

Sure, specializing in timing devices for explosions.

You know, I think I'm going to enjoy playing watchmaker.

Oh, yeah.

"Yeah" what?

Some timing devices.

That's what Piedra's coming to buy.

Nice...

in a nasty kind of way.

Well, nasty's Piedra's style.

14 assassinations in eight different countries.

Each time, a different face, name, I.D....

Guy sounds kind of nervous.

Yeah, he sounds. I am.

Mac, we know the man is coming to pick up

an assassin's tool for a major hit.

Be careful.

Yes, Mother.

Mr. Thornton?

Yeah?

As far as we know, Piedra doesn't have a family.

Any one I want?

Just pick.

Hi. What can I do for you?

I'd like to see some watches, please.

You've come to the right place.

Honey, you know what kind of escort business I run.

And do you want to be sent out on a date?

I thought you wanted

to get your sister Lila out of the business.

Well, maybe I've grown up.

Lila told me about the way you run your business...

so I'm willing to pay a little entrance fee

to meet the last gentleman you arranged for my sister.

That's confidential.

He must have been something special.

Yes.

So?

His name was Smith.

I never saw him.

Strictly phone contact.

C. W. Smith.

This one.

Don't bother to wrap it.

How much?

Uh, let's see.

$42.50 plus, uh... Call it $40 even.

We're running a special.

Hey, thanks.

Nothing.

And nothing.

Here you go.

Hey, thanks a lot.

Okay, tiger.

How come the kid left by himself?

Yeah.

Why would he do that?

You're not his father?

No.

I'm the man who's looking for a timer.

Think I can help you.

Come on.

There's some special problems.

I was told you were coming.

And problems are my specialty.

That's funny. Mine, too.

It has to weigh less than three ounces,

be accurate to five hundredths of a second

and pass a metal detector.

One of these ought to do.

This for explosives or incendiary?

It's Piedra!

Oh, it'll make no difference.

These two. I'll wait out front?

Fine. I'll just make a little adjustment here.

I give up?

What took you so long?

Well...

I wanted to see who was going to win.

I had him right where I wanted him.

Yeah.

Yeah, come on.

I've never spoken to the client himself.

Mr. Smith made the arrangement for Lila's date.

And you're sure it's the same Smith

that called and asked for another girl?

Oh, I'm positive.

Call this number at 2:00 exactly.

Mention Smith,

and the client will take it from there.

And, Terry, I'm really pleased

you've joined our organization.

Remember, make the client happy.

Oh, don't worry, I will.

Will you look at this stuff?

The guy's a walking armory.

Curare?

Yeah.

A Curare derivative

was used last year to assassinate

a government minister in Central America.

Your job?

Prove it.

I intend to.

Anything? Toothpaste?

Industrial strength.

Toothpaste.

Yeah.

Anybody check his watch?

Not yet.

1:22 a.m.?

Forget to set it this morning?

Plastique.

The guy's got something for every occasion.

That's enough to blow his way out of a cell.

All right.

As soon as we're finished here,

I want him taken to the safe house,

strip-searched again

and locked up,

and then I don't want anyone

within ten feet of him.

Understood?

Yes, sir.

Nice.

Can't be traced.

State-of-the- art scrambler.

It could be whoever's hired him.

There's one way to find out.

Uh-uh.

Yes.

Mr. Smith here.

Do you have the time?

Yes.

1:24... A.M.

Confirmed.

I'll place the payments and directions

behind the monument in the northwest corner

of Our Holy Father Cemetery.

Got it.

When?

3:00

this afternoon.

Agreed. It will be there for one hour only.

Then I will reclaim it.

Don't worry, I'll be there.

The woman you requested will call you at exactly 2:00.

Excellent.

Paymaster's setting up the drop.

I think we're on a roll.

You bet we are.

Is it true he uses call girls to make his pickups?

Yeah, he does.

And then he kills them.

Smith says

the new girl will give a call about 2:00.

I guess I'd better follow through with the lady.

As Piedra.

No.

I need the work.

You could also get killed.

Yeah. Got anybody else?

It's General Smith.

He seems to be carrying the money with him.

Just do not lose him.

It's 2:00.

That's right.

And it'll be 2:00 for the next 40 seconds.

I'm going to arrange for a backup.

Oh, that's terrific.

I'm out there impersonating Piedra,

and you've got Feds crawling out of manholes

and dangling from trees. Thanks.

Will you just relax?

She's prompt.

Yes.

Mr. Smith told me to call.

My name's Terry.

You're to follow my instructions precisely.

Now, listen carefully.

You Terry?

Mmm. For me?

No.

We have an appointment.

Where's the car?

Around the corner.

You'll drive.

Where to?

I'll tell you as we go.

All you have to do is pick something up

and deliver it to me.

What if something happens and we get separated?

Then we'll meet at my hotel room.

Here's the key.

Terry...

be sure you do exactly as I tell you.

Of course; don't you trust me?

I don't trust anybody.

Feeding time.

What a waste of the taxpayers' money.

Move back away from the bars.

All right, here you go.

No knife and fork?

Are you kidding?

A woman?

She's the assassin?

I do not think so.

I heard he often uses women to run errands for him.

However, she should be able to lead us to him directly, hmm?

Come on.

We're being followed.

Who is it?

That's a good question.

What's going on?!

Take the wheel!

Come on!

Let's go!

Go!

Ah!

Wow.

Archbishop Fierro.

That's it.

Yeah, this is DX-five.

Give me extension 56-20.

Yeah?

Pete?

It's Connors.

Thornton hasn't gotten here yet.

Yeah. I made Can I help?

the pickup, and I have a line on the target.

I'll fill you in later.

I'm on my way in.

And check out a plate for me, will you?

Plate number Peter Jackson

Peter five eight six.

Right.

Put the phone down.

Now.

Please put the phone down.

Now!

Uh, look, um...

don't you think we should talk about this for a minute?

No talk.

You killed my sister and now I'm gonna kill you.

Your sister?

Oh, no, no, no.

I think you got it all wrong.

Uh, I'm not the man you think I am.

Put it down!

It's just toothpaste.

Put it down.

I did not kill your sister.

I am not Piedra.

The man your sister calls Mr. Gray?

Sure, the check's in the mail.

You killed my sister,

and now you're gonna kill me.

And I don't care, Mr. Piedra or Gray or whatever...

Name's MacGyver.

I'm on a government assignment

taking Piedra's place.

He's in custody.

Terry,

think about it for a second.

If I was Piedra,

you'd be dead by now, wouldn't you?

Piedra's in a cell.

Believe me, he's gone.

All wrapped up and stashed away someplace.

He's history.

It's over.

I almost shot you.

When I saw Lila dying...

She's all the family I had left.

Us two.

And he killed her.

He just got rid of her

like you get rid of a stray cat or something.

Terry, I'm sorry.

Believe me.

Come on.

I'm gonna drop this off

and then get you into debriefing.

What?

Well, the important thing now

is we've got a line on Piedra's next target.

It was supposed to happen

at 4:00 this afternoon at St. Marcus Convent.

We have to consider this a major assassination.

Archbishop Fierro was going to be killed.

Now... he's not.

I know you've had a tough time,

but if you need someone to listen, I'll listen.

I'm here.

Hey!

Hey! Somebody!

Hey, somebody!

All right, away from the door.

Now what do you want?

Out.

Thornton called.

He's on his way over.

It feels good, doesn't it?

Knowing it's over.

What scares me is I almost killed you.

No, Terry, if you were that kind of person,

you'd have pulled the trigger on me.

No, you don't understand.

I wanted to hear him beg.

I wanted to watch his face as he died.

And now I'll never get the chance.

Come with us, please.

What do you mean come with you?

Get into the car.

All right, all right.

Wow, I'll be glad

when this thing is over, you guys.

Yeah, that's the truth.

Just trying to work all this out on,

uh, on paper here.

Hey, you're the guys

who chased us out of the cemetery.

Guess I owe you a set of tires, huh?

Keep moving.

I must go now and meet the Archbishop.

Be careful.

Raoul, la pistola.

You know, you guys are way off base.

I'm not Piedra.

We saw your paymaster,

when he left this blood money for you.

And we saw her get it and give it to you.

We know you have been hired

to kill the Archbishop.

Is it only you, senor, or are there others?

What is your plan?

Who hired you?

I'm telling you, you're wrong.

I do not want to hurt you,

but I am sworn to protect the Archbishop.

Well, that's good. That's terrific.

Because Piedra, the assassin

you were waiting for this morning,

he was caught.

He's in a cell right now.

Well, why can't you just believe us?

In God's name, I wish I could, senorita,

but I must know the truth, no matter how painful the way.

The Archbishop's life is in my hands.

Pardon me.

Excuse me, the reception for the Archbishop?

On the back lawn.

Ah, thank you.

Here, let me help you.

Oh, that's very kind of you.

We should expect His Grace soon?

Within the next half hour at the latest, sir.

Oh, that's excellent.

I can't tell you how much I'm looking forward to it.

So good to see you again, Sister Eileen.

This is a wonderful occasion for me.

For all of us.

Everybody who contributed to your cause

wanted to be here today to meet you.

Yes, I want to meet them and to thank them.

And is everything well with you, my loyal friend?

I have my fears, Your Excellency.

As always.

We have a bargain.

He keeps watch on my life and I look after his soul.

But I feel guilty.

Pato works much harder at his part of the arrangement.

It would make our job a lot easier

if you would listen to our advice,

Your Excellency.

Ah, but then I would get nothing done.

This way, Excellency.

Excuse me.

You know, Emilio, you have got a head of pure rock.

Just call the number, will you?

What do you got to lose?

I see.

I call and alert who?

Your confederates?

Those who hired you?

It's hopeless. He's paranoid.

No, he's just scared.

And I don't blame him.

Put that down.

Just relax, will you?

Let Terry make the call.

I said put it down.

I warn you.

Put it down.

Don't.

Telephone...

on the table,

please?

Terry, would you mind covering him?

DX-five, XC four four seven nine.

Voice pattern accepted.

Hold for connect.

Mac, is that you?

Yeah, Pete?

I'm at, uh, Saint Marcus Convent.

And I'd like you

to straighten somebody out for me, would you?

Archbishop's Fierro's bodyguard here thinks I'm Piedra.

Mac, Piedra's escaped!

He killed Connors, four others.

Damn bloodbath.

What?!

Yeah, Connors.

Listen, let's talk about the Archbishop.

If he's the target, Piedra could be heading...

Here.

His Excellency.

Yeah. Look, Pete, we've got some people here, but

you better come on over while I explain

the facts of life to the Archbishop.

Terry, fill him in.

Please hurry!

I am sorry, Mr. MacGyver,

but I must make an appearance

and thank my friends.

But, Your Excellency,

you will be risking your life!

That is what a life is for.

The people who are here have contributed to our cause

generously in money and of themselves.

But with all due respect,

Your Excellency, the people will understand.

They will understand

that I've allowed myself be directed not by God,

but by terror.

By an assassin.

I must do the Lord's will as it is revealed to me.

I am imperfect.

He is not.

He is a great man, but he will die.

Yeah, we're all gonna die.

The trick is not to rush it.

Emilio,con permiso...

Lopez, un momento, un momento...

Look, just keep your men movin' around the grounds.

He's got to show up in the crowd somewhere.

But, Senor MacGyver, nobody has seen Piedra.

My men will not be able to recognize him.

Well, I've seen him, but I don't think

a description would do much good.

He knows I'd recognize him,

so he'll be wearing some kind of

a disguise.

Look for a blind man,

somebody wearing a uniform, a guy

in a wheelchair.

Look for the person

who'd be the least likely assassin.

Oh, thank you, Sister.

Excuse me.

Ladies and gentlemen,

thank you for coming.

I am Sister Eileen Kennedy.

We are a service order, and in

Archbishop Fierro's country, we have found a mission,

to work with the poor, the sick,

the children.

And with your help, we have created

a small miracle.

The opportunity,

the real hope that soon they can be free.

And we believe with all our hearts

this can be done without bloodshed.

Thank you.

The Archbishop himself will thank you

in a few moments.

He's, uh, conducting a blessing service

with some of our sisters now,

so please, be patient.

Enrique, go to the front of the house

and make sure that nobody leaves.

Carlos, go to the driveway in the back

and make sure that nobody leaves the compound.

Have you checked the grounds?

To the wall, but I think he's inside.

I mean, there are classrooms, studies, the tower.

When does the Archbishop come out?

When he finishes the blessing

to the sisters who have been to my country.

Where?

The chapel.

Freeze!

Oh!

Sorry, sister, please, please.

Excellency...

will you listen to a prayer?

Hi.

This is for Lila!

Terry, no!

Piedra!

Oh!

Oh. Oh!

You all right?

Yeah.

What happened?

The wages of sin, I think.

Yeah.

Get him out of here.

Oh, I admire the man so much.

I want to apologize first

for the delay.

I assure you, my dear benefactors,

that this is a time of great joy for all of us.

We opened the children's hospital one week ago,

and we have always...

He does not know how close it was.

Well, Emilio,

maybe he is in God's hands.

Gracias, Senor MacGyver.

You're welcome.

And Piedra's dead.

Fair enough.

Yeah, almost.

What does that mean?

Well, it's just that I'll never know for sure.

Oh.

Know what?

Whether or not he could have taken him.
