All language subtitles for MacGyver 1985 - 2x02 - The Eraser.DVDRip.MEDiEVAL.en

A man once said he went to a fight,
and a hockey game broke out.

Lots of people think fighting's
a part of the sport.

Well, it shouldn't be.

Played the right way, it requires skill,
coordination, stamina and finesse.

Of course, a little muscle
didn't hurt.

Keep your head up!

I don't think this will take very Iong.

Why don't you just drive around
the block a few times.

It is all there,
three-quarters of a million.

- I said it was all there.
- So what?

Mr. Simmons, we have
done business in the past.

We have always
treated you fairly, ja?

When I was a kid,
I was known as a "rink rat":

The first one on the ice
and the last one off it.

As a bonus for my last assignment,
I asked Pete Thornton to arrange

a scrimmage with the Squires.

I was kind of nervous lacing up
my skates, but once I was out there,

it was just like old times.

- Gotta keep your head up, eh?
- Yeah.

NavCom-24 is not just any
piece of hardware, gentlemen.

We're talking about the most
sophisticated navigation system

ever developed.

When will it be ready for shipment?

It's waiting for you now
at the Pier Three drop.

The crates are Iabelled "sauerkraut."

Until next time, comrades.

I'd Iove to see their faces
when they realize they just paid

three-quarters of a million
for two crates of sauerkraut.

Here, you buy the tickets, one-way
to Rio. We Ieave in three days.

Put 12 guys carrying sticks
in an enclosed area,

and sooner or later,
men will be boys.

Seven, two minutes!
EIbow! Let's go!

What are you talking about?
Two on one, you call that fair?

You got another two
for opening your mouth. Let's go!

- Come on, open your eyes!
- Let's go, get in there.

That's bush!

I rented a room down on Sixth.

Drop me off now,
pick me up tomorrow.

We'II make the rounds,
wrap up the business. Let's go.

The penalty box is hockey's version
of solitary confinement.

Except you serve your time
in front of a rink full of people.

Hey, Mac, you want some oxygen?

- How Iong you been there?
- Oh, not Iong.

Well, I did get to see you inspect
the ice from pretty close range.

Hey, wait a minute.

You promised...

No assignments for a week
at Ieast, right?

Mac, I came down here
to watch you play.

- Higher, Grandpa!
- No, honey, you'II fall.

Higher!

Well, just a Iittle.

Up, up we go!

That's right, you hold on.

Let's go.

Mr. Banning, Iook out!

Jimmy!

Oh, Jimmy.

With protection Iike this,
I'm Iucky to be alive, huh?

Say, for a guy who's been
in the joint, you Iook good.

I Iooked better before I went in.

Ten years is a Iong time,
Mr. Banning.

"Mr. Banning." I'm Papa Chuck.

I got a job for you.

Yeah, I know, Mac,
you want some time off.

Fix up your place,
play a Iittle hockey.

I know, right now
you're not interested

that some of the country's most
precious and top-secret technology

is being handed over
to the East Germans.

Federal government figures
a full-scale investigation

would tip off the East Germans,
so we're handling it.

The Foundation is handling it.

We had a suspect under surveillance
at Vectrocon Systems,

but just when we were about
to take him, he disappeared.

- You mean Simmons.
- What?

How did you know that?

We needed somebody who could
get his hands on the goods.

Simmons was ripe,
so we plucked him.

- So now he decided to pluck you.
- Right.

So if we can find this Simmons
and get the names

of his East German contacts,
we can shut down

this technology pipeline
they've got going.

Jimmy, if I Iet Simmons get away
with this Iittle game,

how could I hold my head up
in the family, huh?

Take the contract on him.

It's been ten years.

It's Iike riding a bike,
you never forget.

Hey, Pete, I thought you gave up
your cloak and dagger

when you joined
the Phoenix Foundation.

Yeah, you and me both.

- I'm retired now, I'm through with it.
- Grandpa, Iook, ice cream.

It's almost suppertime, honey.

I'm not the same guy I was.
I don't have the heart for it.

My knees are shot.

My Ieft eye clouds up on me.

Hey, you're the Eraser.

Bad knees and one eye, you're still
the best hitter since DiMaggio.

Pete, you're fishing for something.

Just one more job, Jimmy,
for all we've been through?

- Otherwise, my head's on the block.
- Grandpa!

Now, don't tell grandma.

Is that a face, or is that a face?

Jimmy, I wanna keep this
on a personal basis.

I don't wanna call in
any of your markers.

What do you say?

Thank you.

Mac, I'm really in a jam.

You wouldn't take this job,
would you?

AII you had to do was ask, Pete.

- You got a file on Simmons?
- Yeah, I already put it in your Iocker.

AIong with the Iatest
surveillance photos.

Oh, by the way, he's heavily
invested in a bar downtown.

- Right.
- Going back in?

- Yeah.
- Show them how to skate now.

Go on, Mac. Do it!

Game of finesse.

I don't know what's wrong with
this thing. It's never done this before.

- Sure I can't get you some wine?
- Let me see it.

I think what we have here
is a gas-pressure problem.

- Got any olives?
- OIives?

Yeah, the Iittle green ones
with the pimientos.

Thanks.

I Iove these things. Love them.

We just bleed off some of
the carbon dioxide,

then that'II dislodge the valve,
which is obviously stuck. Then...

...we'II have ginger ale.

It's working.
You sure you just want ginger ale?

I could put something in that.

No, the bubbles are just fine,
thanks.

- Make it?
- Yeah.

Thanks, pal.

Take my advice, stay young.

- I'II try.
- Shot of rye, honey.

Believe it or not, I used to have
a great set of wheels.

Home to first base,
three and a half seconds.

Now, with this arthritis...

Thank you.

- Luck.
- Skoal.

Listen, can I ask you something?

I'm Iooking for a Michael Simmons.
Is he around?

I haven't seen him in a few days,

but you might wanna try him
at the car Iot on the next block over.

- He owns a piece of that too.
- AII right, thanks a Iot.

Hey, nice, real nice.

You know, I'd buy this tomorrow
if it was red.

Okay, I couldn't help overhearing you
back at the bar.

I'm Iooking for Michael Simmons too.
He's my son.

I mean, this is the both of us.

Atlantic City, '64, before the casinos.

And you haven't seen him, huh?

Well, we ain't exactly been tight
over the years.

I came into town three days ago.
He was supposed to meet me.

He never shows. I asked around,
everybody's a clam.

Then I run into you.

I mean, on the q.t., is he in trouble?
Are you a cop?

- No.
- Well, Iook, then, Mr...?

- MacGyver.
- Nice to meet you.

Supposing that me and you
put our heads together.

I don't think so, Mr. Simmons.

Jimmy. Just call me Jimmy.

Jimmy.

These things can be a Iittle dangerous,
I'd hate to see you get hurt.

Then he is in trouble.

Look, pal, you probably know
what it's Iike

having your old man
hanging around. My Mikey don't.

A prince among men I ain't,
but if my boy's in trouble...

Well, I just wanna help.

I wanna be a father to him.
I never done that before.

AII right, where you staying?

Oh, some fleabag hotel.
The Armstrong.

- But the roaches are friendly.
- Yeah.

AII right, if I find him,
I'II give you a call.

Thank you.

I guess there are a lot of reasons
why a man

would sell his country's secrets,

but the most common is also
the hardest to understand:

Simple greed.

Of course, Simmons had his fingers
in so many pies,

the word "simple" didn't really fit.

Some people give at the office.

Simmons took from it.

Vectrocon Systems was
his base of operations.

I figured it might provide me with
an idea or two of where to find him.

I've never minded checking out
bars or car lots.

That's because they're usually
not ten floors up.

But Pete didn't want to alert
the people at Vectrocon Systems

in case Simmons wasn't
the company's only bad apple.

Which is why I found myself
hanging around an elevator shaft

in total violation of
every instinct I own.

You can tell a lot about someone by
the things he keeps on his desk.

Provided you can get to his desk.

Electrical locks are designed to open
when a person inside hits a button.

Nice thing about these kinds of locks
is that if you give them a power surge,

they don't know
which side of the door you're on.

Simmons didn't waste any time

moving everything
out of his apartment.

I was hoping he hadn't been
as thorough here.

Linda, 40 1 West Beech.

See you soon, Linda.

It's a funny thing
about elevator shafts.

They're just as dark
and just as scary

when you're riding down
as when you're riding up.

Bottom line, though,
I got what I came for...

... and I was still alive.

My mom used to tell me,
"When you visit someplace,

make sure you leave it
the same way you found it. "

I replaced Simmons' door lock and,
with the vent cover back in place,

no one would ever know
I'd been there.

Nice going, buddy, but I--

It's a good thing
I've been tailing you.

Yeah. Why?

Well, these things can
get dangerous,

and I wouldn't
wanna see you get hurt.

Yeah.

Hey, nice neck of the woods.
Lived here Iong?

Oh, about six months.
Little fixer-upper.

I keep the hardware store
in business.

This is it.

Smell that sea air.

Yeah, the ocean's just a couple
of miles that way. Come on.

I Iived by the beach when
I was a kid in Jersey City.

Well, it really wasn't a beach,
it was a drainage ditch.

But my mother said it was a beach,
and I believed.

So come on in.

- Love what you done with the place.
- Right.

Hockey, beautiful game.

I don't Iike the jerks who just
go there for the fighting, though.

- Did you ever play?
- I skated on my ankles.

Baseball was my game.

'47 Braves.

That's when they were in Boston.

Get out of here.
You were in the majors?

For two whole weeks. They called
me up in case the other guy got hurt.

The bum stayed healthy,
I never got into the game.

They had me driving the team bus.

But for two weeks,
I was a major Ieaguer.

No kidding.

The wind got it.
You know, when I was your age...

... I used to have the itch
to keep moving all the time,

always Iooking for
that next piece of excitement.

Know what I mean?

Then one day I wake up,
I'm not young anymore.

Racked up a Iot of miles,
but no people.

Very easy trap to fall into.

Now I don't want
no more excitement.

I just wanna go where the weather's
nice, watch kids play ball.

But first I gotta get things
straight with Mikey.

Might be on to something.
He's got a girlfriend.

What did I tell you?

You do the Iooking,
I'II do the following,

and everything's
gonna be just Iovely.

Yeah.

Hey, I wanna thank you
for putting me up.

I mean, it beats that hotel
by a furlong.

- How about some dinner?
- In or out?

Take your chances.
What, are you kidding?

AII right, just in case, I cook.
I want you to know.

MacGyver at centre ice.
Sets it up, shoots-- Shoots it wide!

- We're in the corner!
- Come on!

And breaking down
through the blue Iine.

Come on, it's Iike a power--
What? No!

Corner rebound, shoots, scores!

- Oh, no!
- Oh, finesse!

He shoots, scores and wins.

I haven't done dishes
since I was a kid.

Well, you just earned the right
to do them tonight. Congratulations.

It's a great game, isn't it?

You dreamed of making it
to the pros, didn't you?

Yep.

Well, Iike I used to tell Mikey:

Dreams are important. Otherwise,
sleep is just eight hours of nothing.

So, what got you into
your current Iine of work?

I don't know what it is, but there must
be an easier way of making a Iiving.

Yeah.

Simmons' girlfriend Linda and I
had a date for lunch.

She didn't know about it,
so I started without her.

I like alfalfa sprouts
for two reasons:

Lots of minerals,
and they don't stain your clothes.

Look at this. My eyes are my best
feature, especially this one.

You should have gotten your face
out of the way.

I had to make it Iook good
for MacGyver.

- You betting, Jake?
- Garbage.

- What is it with that guy?
- I say you ought to take care of him

- after he Ieads you to Simmons.
- It ain't part of the contract.

Yeah, but if MacGyver
gets in the way--

I'II worry about it then.
And Iet me suggest this:

Keep your mouth shut before
your brains spill out all over the floor.

- What do you got?
- Two pair.

- Three kings.
- No good, full boat.

Thank you, gentlemen.

If Simmons picked this neighbourhood
because of its low profile,

he made a great choice.

Everything you always wanted
in a slum and less.

Whenever I see a car phone,
I can't help wondering

whether the person
who owns it is important

or wants everyone else
to think he's important.

Simmons obviously fell
into the latter category.

With the proper connections,

it's possible that a cellular phone
can reach out and touch

the security system of
the car's onboard computer.

I was hoping to take control of
Linda 's very expensive new toy

by simply getting the phone
to talk to the computer,

knowing that computers
always do as they're told.

Except at my bank, of course.

You're just gonna sit around and wait
for MacGyver to handle the Iegwork?

It's my plan at the moment.

If Papa Chuck knew you were
gonna handle it that way--

Mr. Banning to you.

He hires you to do a job,
do it your way.

- Hello?
- Jimmy?

It's MacGyver.

- It's Father's Day.
- No kidding.

Yeah, I know exactly where it is.

Hey, do me a favour, huh?

Don't tell him that I'm coming.
I want it to be a surprise.

You got it.

MacGyver's got Simmons.
Give me the keys.

Papa Chuck wants me to drive.

I never had a driver in my Iife.

Hey, you been in the joint ten years.

He knows you don't have
a driving Iicense, so I volunteered.

Well, Iet's go, nosebleed.

- Hello?
- Yeah, I want a 1 2-inch pizza,

run it through the garden,
hold the 'chovies.

- We're Iocked in here.
- What's going on?

Look, start the car
and Iet's get out of here!

It won't start.

Do something.

- Howdy.
- Hey, the doors are Iocked.

You folks got a problem?

Yes, we've got a problem. The doors
are Iocked. We can't get them open.

Can't hear you. Window's closed.

We're Iocked in here!

- Pick up the phone.
- What?

The phone. Pick it up!

Yeah, that'II do it.

- Come on out.
- What the hell's going on here?

Excuse me. Let's just say
somebody from the government

wants to talk over a few things
with you, okay? Hang on here.

Linda, sweetheart, the car will go now.

I suggest you go with it.

Linda!

That's Ioyalty.

You ought to know.

I'm-- Hold it!

That would be a big mistake.

- Take it easy, okay?
- AII right. Come on.

- Come on.
- I'm coming, I'm coming.

We'II just wait in my car.
What do you say?

For what? What are you, government,
FBI, what?

I promised somebody they could
talk to you before I took you in.

Evidently they think
you're worth the effort.

- Who?
- Your father.

My father's dead.
What are you talking about?

- In case you need backup.
- I'm warning you, Ralph, stay put.

Look, I don't care what somebody
told you,

my father's been dead for six years.

Yeah?

Well, if Jimmy's not your father...

...who's he?

- They're setting me up, it's a hit!
- Let's go, run!

What in the hell is going on here?
Who are you?

I'm the guy who's gonna try
and get you out of here alive. Maybe.

What are you doing?

Yes.

- What are you doing?
- Improvising.

- What kind of gas is that?
- It's the only kind we've got.

Yeah, but it could--
It could explode.

Yeah? Would you
rather take your chances

with Prince Charming out there?

Look, if this works,
it'II keep us from getting caught.

If it doesn't,
it'II keep us from getting old.

Hand me that other rag, will you?

- You got a Iight?
- I got a Iight, yeah.

I hope this works.

- Help me with this.
- Right.

Get out of the way, MacGyver.

Now.

You know, I've been wrong
about a Iot of people...

...but I have never been this wrong.

It's a contract.
It has nothing to do with you.

- So step aside.
- Can't do it.

Guy's scum.
His Iife ain't worth saving.

That may be so, but I can't make
that decision about people, Jimmy.

- If that's really your name.
- That's right, Jimmy Kendall.

Now I'm telling you
for the Iast time...

Wait a minute, wait a minute.

Well, who was that in that picture,
then, that you had in your wallet?

That was me and my nephew,
Frankie. My sister's kid.

You know,
I bought your whole story.

- The Boston Braves...
- True.

-...bad knees...
- Critical.

...being a friend.

What'd you say?

"I don't want any more excitement.
I just wanna go

where the weather's good
and watch kids play ball."

Isn't that what you said?

That was what I wanted.

Well, then do it.

Just walk away.

Hey, Iook, I got three-quarters
of a million here.

Ain't about money, pal.

Jimmy...

...he's got some information
we need. Once we've got it...

...we'II take care of him.
With a jury.

It's a contract, and I got no choice.

Me neither.

I'm not moving, Jimmy.

The bum's yours.

Hey, hey! Wait a minute, hold it!

What are you--? You ungrateful...

You know, for a smart guy,
you're not too bright, are you?

Come on.

Jimmy, I wasn't so sure you were--

Jimmy didn't ice him, Mr. Banning.
That's what I'm saying.

Simmons is gonna sing to the feds.

Sing? He's gonna do Pagliacci.

I gave Jimmy his start
in the business.

- You sure about this?
- On my mother's eyes.

The things I gotta do.

If you need some heavyweight work,
it'd be an honour.

AII right, Ralphie.

I Iike a man with initiative.

Kill Simmons.

But first, find Jimmy
and put him to sleep.

Consider it done, Mr. Banning.

Papa Chuck.

It's open.

- Mac?
- Office hours are over, Pete.

Loosen your tie and grab a yogurt.

Well, you know, I was kind of
hoping for a drink.

I'II pass.

Well, we did it.

The federal agents just picked up
the East Germans getting on a plane.

Boy, that's one time I would Iove
to have been there.

Like to have seen the Iook
on their faces.

I'm hooked into the mainframe
at the Phoenix Foundation.

Simmons' file has been
tampered with,

that's why it shows
his father's still alive.

This is great. Did you make this?

You're supposed to heat it.

- I Iike it cold.
- I didn't think you'd go in

for whipped bean curd.

I've been trying to get Jimmy's file
to come up-- Oh, here we go.

Spent the Iast ten years in prison.

He's been Iinked with
"Papa Chuck" Banning.

That contract Jimmy was
talking about,

Banning must have wanted
Simmons killed.

Yeah, but Jimmy didn't do it.

So now there's
a contract out on him.

- Pete, I gotta find him.
- Oh, come on, Mac.

- Don't get yourself involved.
- I'm already involved.

- Listen, Jimmy could be anywhere.
- Yeah.

Put that back in the fridge, will you?

Where do you start to look for
a man who could be anywhere?

A man with no roots,
no reason for him to stay,

and one big reason for him to leave.

I started asking myself,
"Where would I go if I were Jimmy?"

If you've seen one ball field,
you've seen them all.

I know, I must've seen ten of them
before I found Jimmy.

What worried me was

if I knew him well enough
to find him at a ball field...

... so did Banning.

Kid's got a hitch in his swing.

Fastball would get by him.

Reminds me of me.

Well, there's no use hiding.
I gotta face the music.

You could try to get away, you know.

There is no getting away,
not from these people.

There was this guy once,
Morrie GIuck, a numbers runner.

They caught him with his hands
in the till.

Friend of mine got the contract.

Morrie calls him, asks for 24 hours
to get his affairs in order.

They set a time, met the next day,
and that was that.

Morrie, well, he knew
the jig was up,

but at Ieast he went out
with a Iittle class.

What? You're wondering how it felt
for me to pull the trigger?

I spent the Iast ten years
thinking about that, seeing faces.

Maybe that's why I couldn't do it
no more.

Well, I'm not gonna Iet you
sit here and just wait.

I appreciate your concern,
but it's not your worry.

Well, I'm funny that way, Jimmy.

You know, I'm glad that I met you
that day in the bar.

But the truth is I'm tired,
and I'm too old to run.

There are a Iot of kids who'd Iike
to make it to the major Ieagues.

You could help them.

You do have two weeks' experience.

- What, driving the team bus?
- Yeah.

You know, maybe.

Pipe dreams.

Come on.

Let's go!

Jimmy, wait!

They'II see that.

MacGyver, why don't you
get out of here before they find us.

No. Come on.

- They're still out there, huh?
- Yeah.

Ralph and his.357.

Dumdums that'II open you up
Iike a cantaloupe.

I tell you, even if we get out of this,
they're gonna keep coming.

They're not gonna stop.
They're gonna keep coming

till they put me right in the grave.

Help me with this mirror.

It won't work. I don't know
what you're doing, but it won't work.

Jimmy, you said they wouldn't stop
until they got you.

Let's make them think they did.

AII right, Jimmy, don't move
from in front of that mirror

until they see you
and they start shooting.

Then what?

Hit the deck.

Ralph, Iook!

No.

Come on.

This way.

SIeep tight, Jimmy.

He's dead, Ralph, Iet's go.

That Ralph is so dumb,
he'd study for a blood test.

Yeah.

Yeah.

AIthough I gotta admit,
I Iooked pretty dead to me too.

Yeah.

I owe you, MacGyver.

How can you owe a friend?

My boys tell me you did a good job
putting Jimmy down.

Yes, sir. Jimmy the Eraser
got rubbed out.

If I'd wanted a comedian,
I'd have hired one.

I want a nice arrangement sent
to the funeral.

Couple of dozen roses, some Iilies.

Take care of it.

Yes, sir.

Nice touch, Mac,
calling the reporters.

Yeah, I think Jimmy
would have Ioved this.

Oh, by the way, Pete...

...about that bonus
I asked you for?

It's all taken care of.
New name, new personal history.

Tell me, why'd you wanna
relocate him in FIorida?

Well, I found him a job.

Something I think he'II Iike.

Hey, Louie, I need some oil
for my glove.

You don't need oil, you need glue.

Two errors on one play yesterday.

- I Iost it in the sun.
- It was a ground ball!

When I was in the bigs,
we didn't use oil. Spit, we used.

- You played?
- That's right, '47 Braves.

And I could honestly say
for a two-week stretch,

the team couldn't go anywhere
without me.

Yeah...

... I think he'II Iike it a Iot.
