00:09:16,947 --> 00:09:18,166
Hang in there, Charlie.

183
00:09:18,209 --> 00:09:19,384
We'll be right back, okay?

184
00:09:39,753 --> 00:09:42,712
RILEY:
Don't suppose they have one
of those on all elevators.

185
00:09:42,756 --> 00:09:45,759
[sighs] I'm gonna have to get
down and get a closer look.

186
00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:00,817
What's going on, Mac?Well,

187
00:10:00,861 --> 00:10:03,428
kind of looks like something
I would build myself

188
00:10:03,472 --> 00:10:05,126
if I wanted to drop an elevator.

189
00:10:05,169 --> 00:10:06,344
Hey, guys, we're looking

190
00:10:06,388 --> 00:10:08,346
at a homemade cable cutting
device here.

191
00:10:08,390 --> 00:10:10,348
Can you disable it?

192
00:10:10,392 --> 00:10:11,523
MacGYVER:
I don't know.

193
00:10:13,656 --> 00:10:16,659
A control box has redundancies

194
00:10:16,703 --> 00:10:18,313
and multiple triggers.

195
00:10:18,356 --> 00:10:20,794
And it's wired to the sensors
on the glass in the elevator,

196
00:10:20,837 --> 00:10:22,665
so we can't rescue Charlie

197
00:10:22,709 --> 00:10:24,624
without triggering it.

198
00:10:29,759 --> 00:10:30,934
Hey, Charlie, I'm
working on getting you

199
00:10:30,978 --> 00:10:32,022
out of there,
but first things first.

200
00:10:32,066 --> 00:10:33,676
We got to stop the bleeding.

201
00:10:42,946 --> 00:10:44,818
[Charlie grunts]

202
00:10:44,861 --> 00:10:46,123
[groans softly]

203
00:10:47,168 --> 00:10:49,344
[groans]
Thanks.

204
00:10:50,737 --> 00:10:52,173
[exhales]

205
00:10:52,216 --> 00:10:53,696
How did you get in here?

206
00:10:53,740 --> 00:10:55,611
A cop came at me
in the courthouse.

207
00:10:55,655 --> 00:10:57,700
Never seen him before,
but he knew my name.

208
00:10:57,744 --> 00:10:59,702
He shot me, drugged me.

209
00:10:59,746 --> 00:11:03,010
[exhales]
Mac, what the hell is going on?

210
00:11:03,053 --> 00:11:05,273
I don't know.

211
00:11:07,405 --> 00:11:09,190
Why do I get the feeling...

212
00:11:09,233 --> 00:11:11,148
my day's about to get
a lot worse?

213
00:11:11,192 --> 00:11:15,109
There's a cutting device
on your elevator's main cable,

214
00:11:15,152 --> 00:11:18,808
and anything that we do to try
and get you out will trigger it.

215
00:11:19,983 --> 00:11:21,593
Anyone who went through
that kind of trouble

216
00:11:21,637 --> 00:11:24,118
probably disabled the elevator's
safety features, too.

217
00:11:24,161 --> 00:11:26,207
Every single one.So...

218
00:11:26,250 --> 00:11:27,861
what's the plan, guys?

219
00:11:29,079 --> 00:11:31,038
You'll be the first to know
when I've got one.

220
00:11:31,081 --> 00:11:32,300
All right.

221
00:11:32,343 --> 00:11:33,518
OVERSIGHT [over comm]:
Angus, I've examined

222
00:11:33,562 --> 00:11:34,955
the control box,
and I'm confident

223
00:11:34,998 --> 00:11:37,653
that disabling it is
a straightforward procedure.

224
00:11:37,697 --> 00:11:39,786
Agreed, but, uh,
does the design look familiar?

225
00:11:39,829 --> 00:11:41,875
I wasn't gonna bring that up
until after you were done,

226
00:11:41,918 --> 00:11:43,703
but yeah, its
construction

227
00:11:43,746 --> 00:11:44,965
is similar to the bomb

228
00:11:45,008 --> 00:11:46,749
that was placed on my SUV.

229
00:11:46,793 --> 00:11:48,446
Think it's made by the same guy?

230
00:11:48,490 --> 00:11:50,884
I do, but unfortunately,
that doesn't bring us any closer

231
00:11:50,927 --> 00:11:52,668
to identifying him,
so let's just proceed

232
00:11:52,712 --> 00:11:54,365
with getting Charlie to safety.

233
00:11:54,409 --> 00:11:55,715
[staticky]:
First clip the relay,

234
00:11:55,758 --> 00:11:57,325
then the primary trigger,

235
00:11:57,368 --> 00:11:58,761
then the power source.

236
00:11:58,805 --> 00:11:59,893
Say again?

237
00:11:59,936 --> 00:12:01,851
Relay, primary trigger,

238
00:12:01,895 --> 00:12:03,374
power source.

239
00:12:03,418 --> 00:12:04,332
Is there a problem?

240
00:12:04,375 --> 00:12:05,420
Riley, will you scan

241
00:12:05,463 --> 00:12:06,769
our comms frequencies?

242
00:12:06,813 --> 00:12:08,684
Picking up all kinds
of interference once I get

243
00:12:08,728 --> 00:12:10,860
next to the control box.Yeah. I'm doing it now.

244
00:12:10,904 --> 00:12:13,341
That interference
is actually a signal

245
00:12:13,384 --> 00:12:15,343
being transmitted
from an adjacent frequency.

246
00:12:15,386 --> 00:12:16,257
Where's it being sent?

247
00:12:16,300 --> 00:12:17,475
Tracing now.

248
00:12:17,519 --> 00:12:20,130
It's going to a nearby hotel.

249
00:12:20,174 --> 00:12:22,393
Our suspect could be on the
other end of that transmission

250
00:12:22,437 --> 00:12:23,568
waiting for confirmation

251
00:12:23,612 --> 00:12:25,353
their device activated.Hey, Mac,

252
00:12:25,396 --> 00:12:26,658
hold on disabling
that device.

253
00:12:26,702 --> 00:12:28,356
We're gonna go grab
this guy first.

254
00:12:29,487 --> 00:12:31,315
MATTY:
You're right on top

255
00:12:31,359 --> 00:12:32,752
of the signal.

256
00:12:36,407 --> 00:12:38,714
Do you have eyes on the suspect?

257
00:12:44,198 --> 00:12:45,547
Negative.

258
00:12:49,333 --> 00:12:52,162
[camera clicks]Negative is right.

259
00:12:52,206 --> 00:12:55,470
We got something else here,
something seriously scary.

260
00:12:55,513 --> 00:12:57,211
Mac, are you seeing these?

261
00:12:57,254 --> 00:12:58,690
MacGYVER:
That's hydrochloric acid.

262
00:12:58,734 --> 00:13:00,475
BOZER: Probably not
a standard cleaning product

263
00:13:00,518 --> 00:13:02,129
the hotel really stocks up on
at Costco.

264
00:13:02,172 --> 00:13:05,001
MacGYVER:
No. If those vats all burst
at the same time,

265
00:13:05,045 --> 00:13:07,134
that volume of acid will
eat through the support pillars

266
00:13:07,177 --> 00:13:08,309
and cause
a structural implosion.

267
00:13:08,352 --> 00:13:10,398
As in collapse the building?

268
00:13:10,441 --> 00:13:11,791
Within minutes.

269
00:13:11,834 --> 00:13:13,705
Is it weird that every one
of these barrels are wired

270
00:13:13,749 --> 00:13:14,968
to some sort
of electronic thing

271
00:13:15,011 --> 00:13:17,361
like that thing Mac found
on Charlie's elevator?

272
00:13:17,405 --> 00:13:19,059
[camera clicking]

273
00:13:20,451 --> 00:13:24,151
Great. It's a control device,
just like the one here.

274
00:13:24,194 --> 00:13:27,241
These control boxes must
be sending and receiving
signals from each other.

275
00:13:27,284 --> 00:13:29,678
Why?Does it matter?
It's always bad

276
00:13:29,721 --> 00:13:31,114
when machines talk
behind our backs.

277
00:13:32,899 --> 00:13:34,378
[phone chimes]

278
00:13:39,340 --> 00:13:40,907
[phone rings]

279
00:13:42,778 --> 00:13:44,736
Who is this?

280
00:13:44,780 --> 00:13:47,174
The man you're looking for.

281
00:13:49,089 --> 00:13:50,264
You got a name?

282
00:13:50,307 --> 00:13:51,526
I do.

283
00:13:51,569 --> 00:13:53,702
I must admit
I'm a great admirer of yours.

284
00:13:53,745 --> 00:13:56,357
Can't say I'm a fan
of the way you show it.

285
00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:57,967
You're a very impressive
young man

286
00:13:58,011 --> 00:13:59,403
with a rare gift, MacGyver.

287
00:13:59,447 --> 00:14:00,448
Save the compliments.

288
00:14:00,491 --> 00:14:01,797
You obviously went
to great trouble

289
00:14:01,841 --> 00:14:03,625
to put this all together.
So what do you want?

290
00:14:03,668 --> 00:14:05,888
Well, that's very simple.
I want you to make a choice,

291
00:14:05,932 --> 00:14:07,672
between the life of your friend

292
00:14:07,716 --> 00:14:10,980
and the lives of several
hundred innocent strangers

293
00:14:11,024 --> 00:14:12,242
in that hotel.

294
00:14:12,286 --> 00:14:13,026
Well, there's no way
I'm gonna do that, so...

295
00:14:13,069 --> 00:14:14,592
Yes, you are.

296
00:14:14,636 --> 00:14:17,073
By now you've found
my second device,

297
00:14:17,117 --> 00:14:19,554
and you deduced
that the two are connected.

298
00:14:19,597 --> 00:14:20,903
[sighs]
Why are you doing this?

299
00:14:20,947 --> 00:14:22,513
Not your current concern.

300
00:14:22,557 --> 00:14:25,212
Just focus on the fact that
people are going to die today,

301
00:14:25,255 --> 00:14:27,431
and the only thing
that you can control

302
00:14:27,475 --> 00:14:29,346
is who's doing the dying.

303
00:14:29,390 --> 00:14:32,567
And if I choose to do nothing
and leave both devices alone?

304
00:14:32,610 --> 00:14:35,135
Then both devices deploy
and everyone dies.

305
00:14:35,178 --> 00:14:38,312
And if you try to evacuate
that hotel, same result.

306
00:14:38,355 --> 00:14:41,271
You have until, say...

307
00:14:41,315 --> 00:14:42,925
the top of the hour

308
00:14:42,969 --> 00:14:45,145
before you make your choice.

309
00:14:46,711 --> 00:14:49,149
♪

310
00:14:59,594 --> 00:15:00,595
MATTY:
So those are our options?

311
00:15:00,638 --> 00:15:02,858
Either Charlie falls
to his death

312
00:15:02,902 --> 00:15:04,164
in that glass box,

313
00:15:04,207 --> 00:15:06,427
or the Sunset View Hotel
collapses,

314
00:15:06,470 --> 00:15:07,950
killing everyone inside?MacGYVER: Yeah.

315
00:15:07,994 --> 00:15:09,560
Pretty much. And I have...

316
00:15:09,604 --> 00:15:11,954
23 minutes and seven seconds

317
00:15:11,998 --> 00:15:13,564
to disable
one of those control boxes,

318
00:15:13,608 --> 00:15:16,045
or they both go off.Since we can't evacuate
the people,

319
00:15:16,089 --> 00:15:17,133
can we remove the barrels?

320
00:15:17,177 --> 00:15:18,743
I'm seeing
the same sensors on them

321
00:15:18,787 --> 00:15:19,962
that Mac found on the elevator.

322
00:15:20,006 --> 00:15:21,311
So I'm gonna strongly advise

323
00:15:21,355 --> 00:15:22,617
against doing that.Well, what about

324
00:15:22,660 --> 00:15:23,835
disabling both devices

325
00:15:23,879 --> 00:15:25,054
at the same time?MacGYVER: No, no, no.

326
00:15:25,098 --> 00:15:26,142
They're both cross-wired,

327
00:15:26,186 --> 00:15:27,796
just like the bomb
under my dad's SUV.

328
00:15:27,839 --> 00:15:29,319
Disabling both triggers both.

329
00:15:29,363 --> 00:15:30,364
Then let's fool them just like

330
00:15:30,407 --> 00:15:31,582
we did the car bomb.

331
00:15:31,626 --> 00:15:32,670
We'll get an identical
transmitter. I...

332
00:15:32,714 --> 00:15:34,237
No, no,
that won't work, either.

333
00:15:34,281 --> 00:15:36,065
The transmitters that
are connecting these devices

334
00:15:36,109 --> 00:15:38,111
are sending unique signals
that are generated

335
00:15:38,154 --> 00:15:40,330
by a constantly evolving
algorithm that prevents anybody

336
00:15:40,374 --> 00:15:41,941
from doing exactly
what you just said, so...

337
00:15:41,984 --> 00:15:43,812
Look, whoever
we are dealing with

338
00:15:43,855 --> 00:15:45,509
has obviously learned
from their mistake.

339
00:15:45,553 --> 00:15:46,902
MATTY:
Okay, then we have two

340
00:15:46,946 --> 00:15:48,991
viable solutions here:
either we find the person

341
00:15:49,035 --> 00:15:51,341
who set this all up and get them
to shut it all down,

342
00:15:51,385 --> 00:15:53,604
or Mac finds a way to beat
this no-win scenario.

343
00:15:54,823 --> 00:15:57,434
It's nothing
you can't handle, Mac.[sighs]

344
00:15:57,478 --> 00:15:58,653
Thanks, but...

345
00:15:58,696 --> 00:16:00,481
Hey. But nothing.

346
00:16:00,524 --> 00:16:02,613
Okay? You got this.

347
00:16:02,657 --> 00:16:05,486
MATTY:
Oversight is en route.

348
00:16:05,529 --> 00:16:06,835
Everyone regroup
at the Aliso Tower,

349
00:16:06,878 --> 00:16:08,837
and we'll figure out next steps.

350
00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:11,405
OVERSIGHT:
That won't work. MacGYVER: What about a, uh,

351
00:16:11,448 --> 00:16:13,015
friction braking system?

352
00:16:13,059 --> 00:16:14,538
With an interior
elevator, yeah,

353
00:16:14,582 --> 00:16:16,453
but with the weight of the car,
the tracks are too narrow.

354
00:16:16,497 --> 00:16:19,935
Okay, the track descends
into the basement, so
there is a small shaft.

355
00:16:19,979 --> 00:16:21,806
What if we fill it
with some sort of gas

356
00:16:21,850 --> 00:16:25,288
to make an air cushion?If we used a heavy fluorocarbon
like-like Freon.

no real-world address.

533
00:24:46,180 --> 00:24:47,442
And no telling what's in
that crazy head of his.

534
00:24:47,486 --> 00:24:50,010
Any idea why he has this grudge?

535
00:24:50,053 --> 00:24:51,402
No. No idea.

536
00:24:52,578 --> 00:24:54,231
But now we got one against him.

537
00:24:54,275 --> 00:24:57,757
We need to stay focused because
we may know where he is.

538
00:24:57,800 --> 00:25:00,455
Riley managed to track
the shipment of components

539
00:25:00,499 --> 00:25:02,065
to a shop in East L.A.

540
00:25:07,418 --> 00:25:10,552
Move, move!
On me.

541
00:25:10,596 --> 00:25:13,555
Careful what you touch
and where you step.

542
00:25:13,599 --> 00:25:14,817
Mac, I've got eyes inside.

543
00:25:14,861 --> 00:25:17,385
Thermal shows movement
on the east side.

544
00:25:17,428 --> 00:25:19,474
MAN 1: Left side.MAN 2: Got it.

545
00:25:27,700 --> 00:25:29,049
MATTY:
There's one door in and out

546
00:25:29,092 --> 00:25:31,312
of the room he's in,
and it's right ahead of you.

547
00:25:51,201 --> 00:25:52,202
Ready.

548
00:25:52,246 --> 00:25:53,421
Let's go.

549
00:25:56,946 --> 00:25:58,905
Go!

550
00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:03,126
Go! Go! Go!

551
00:26:04,693 --> 00:26:06,216
Freeze!

552
00:26:06,260 --> 00:26:08,088
On the floor!
On the floor!

553
00:26:08,131 --> 00:26:10,090
Don't move!
Hands in the air![coughing]

554
00:26:10,133 --> 00:26:12,962
I'm not gonna ask you again.

555
00:26:13,006 --> 00:26:15,878
MacGyver, you found me.

556
00:26:15,922 --> 00:26:17,663
You're more clever
than I thought.

557
00:26:19,969 --> 00:26:22,537
[groans]

558
00:26:22,581 --> 00:26:27,324
Well, I guess Charlie was
a good friend, huh?

559
00:26:27,368 --> 00:26:29,805
Get him out of here.

560
00:26:29,849 --> 00:26:31,894
[coughing]

561
00:27:07,103 --> 00:27:08,365
Heard you asked
for some water.

562
00:27:08,409 --> 00:27:11,934
Yeah, the tear gas did
a number on me. [chuckles]

563
00:27:20,247 --> 00:27:22,989
Now, that's just flat cruel.

564
00:27:33,521 --> 00:27:35,523
[exhales]

565
00:27:37,046 --> 00:27:38,700
I got a lot of questions
for you, Mason,

566
00:27:38,744 --> 00:27:42,486
but first...

567
00:27:42,530 --> 00:27:43,966
I need to know
if you've planted

568
00:27:44,010 --> 00:27:45,925
any other devices around L.A.

569
00:27:45,968 --> 00:27:47,883
No. And I believe I know

570
00:27:47,927 --> 00:27:49,102
what your next question is.

571
00:27:49,145 --> 00:27:50,973
Well, then answer it.

572
00:27:51,017 --> 00:27:54,020
You want to know why.
Fair enough.

573
00:27:54,063 --> 00:27:57,719
Your answer is the story
of a boy

574
00:27:57,763 --> 00:28:00,983
devoted to serving his country.

575
00:28:01,027 --> 00:28:02,985
Story of a proud Marine
assigned to

576
00:28:03,029 --> 00:28:05,596
embassy security duty overseas.

577
00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:09,035
One day, this Marine gets tasked

578
00:28:09,078 --> 00:28:11,994
onto a special operation to
extract an intelligence asset.

579
00:28:12,038 --> 00:28:15,128
It's a job that needs doing,
so he's all in.

580
00:28:15,171 --> 00:28:17,608
Next thing he knows,
his unit's been ordered

581
00:28:17,652 --> 00:28:20,133
to engage a heavily armed
rebel group,

582
00:28:20,176 --> 00:28:23,092
advance on their camp.

583
00:28:23,136 --> 00:28:26,530
A noble fight? No.

584
00:28:26,574 --> 00:28:29,142
It was all part of a plan,
an insidious plan

585
00:28:29,185 --> 00:28:32,014
by some shadow genius
to create a distraction

586
00:28:32,058 --> 00:28:34,538
so the asset can escape.

587
00:28:36,149 --> 00:28:40,414
But being the distraction
got the boy killed.

588
00:28:40,457 --> 00:28:43,678
And that boy, that Marine,

589
00:28:43,722 --> 00:28:49,423
that life sacrificed
was my son.

590
00:28:49,466 --> 00:28:53,035
That's tragic, but what does it
have to do with me?

591
00:28:53,079 --> 00:28:55,385
Let me clarify.

592
00:28:55,429 --> 00:28:59,781
My son dies for another person,
that's a sacrifice.

593
00:28:59,825 --> 00:29:02,044
Your friend Charlie dies
for those people in that hotel,

594
00:29:02,088 --> 00:29:03,437
that's a sacrifice.

595
00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:05,787
So let me ask you
something, MacGyver.

596
00:29:05,831 --> 00:29:07,571
Now that Charlie's dead,

597
00:29:07,615 --> 00:29:09,748
do you feel proud
of his sacrifice?

598
00:29:11,140 --> 00:29:15,579
Or do you just feel sad
and empty and impotent anger...

599
00:29:15,623 --> 00:29:18,060
rage...

600
00:29:18,104 --> 00:29:22,108
at the senseless death
of your friend? Hmm?

601
00:29:22,151 --> 00:29:24,763
I thought so.

602
00:29:24,806 --> 00:29:27,156
And I feel the same way.

603
00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:28,767
And it's the right feeling,
MacGyver.

604
00:29:28,810 --> 00:29:31,508
Because a folded flag
on a coffin

605
00:29:31,552 --> 00:29:33,206
will never, ever make up

606
00:29:33,249 --> 00:29:37,993
for the loss of
someone you love.

607
00:29:40,169 --> 00:29:42,868
Still doesn't explain why.Ah.

608
00:29:42,911 --> 00:29:44,173
Well, yes.

609
00:29:44,217 --> 00:29:46,959
I saved one significant detail

610
00:29:47,002 --> 00:29:48,525
for the end-- the coup de grâce,

611
00:29:48,569 --> 00:29:50,266
as it were.

612
00:29:50,310 --> 00:29:52,181
The man who designed
and ran that extraction op

613
00:29:52,225 --> 00:29:53,617
was your father.

614
00:29:55,402 --> 00:29:57,230
It was your father who decided

615
00:29:57,273 --> 00:29:59,188
that my son's life
was worthless,

616
00:29:59,232 --> 00:30:01,625
that my son's life
was worth less

617
00:30:01,669 --> 00:30:04,411
than his all-important asset.

618
00:30:06,152 --> 00:30:07,806
Is this story accurate?

619
00:30:07,849 --> 00:30:10,373
It is.

620
00:30:13,768 --> 00:30:16,423
But killing your father
quickly? No.

621
00:30:16,466 --> 00:30:17,946
It's too merciful.

622
00:30:17,990 --> 00:30:21,210
But making him watch
you fail,

623
00:30:21,254 --> 00:30:23,169
making him watch
you suffer,

624
00:30:23,212 --> 00:30:26,041
you bent and buried
beyond belief?

625
00:30:26,085 --> 00:30:27,608
That's just the first
of many ways

626
00:30:27,651 --> 00:30:29,131
I'm gonna pay back
Jim MacGyver.

627
00:30:29,175 --> 00:30:33,919
Angus, seeing your friend
Charlie die today

628
00:30:33,962 --> 00:30:36,660
is going to haunt you
for the rest of your life.

629
00:30:36,704 --> 00:30:38,575
And I'm just getting
started with you

630
00:30:38,619 --> 00:30:41,622
and with him and Phoenix
and everybody in it.

631
00:30:41,665 --> 00:30:44,625
Because it's not until I see
every single thing

632
00:30:44,668 --> 00:30:48,890
that Jim MacGyver loves
and values rent asunder,

633
00:30:48,934 --> 00:30:52,241
it's not until I see
every single thing

634
00:30:52,285 --> 00:30:54,026
that he holds precious

635
00:30:54,069 --> 00:30:58,117
dead and gone,
will he have truly

636
00:30:58,160 --> 00:31:00,554
gotten what he really deserves.

637
00:31:00,597 --> 00:31:03,905
[sighs heavily]

638
00:31:03,949 --> 00:31:05,733
[door opens]

639
00:31:05,776 --> 00:31:07,256
RILEY:
Sorry to interrupt,

640
00:31:07,300 --> 00:31:09,084
but we pulled a hard drive
from Mason's.

641
00:31:09,128 --> 00:31:11,565
He's the one who doxxed us.

642
00:31:11,608 --> 00:31:14,133
The doxxing, the bomb
under Jim's SUV,

643
00:31:14,176 --> 00:31:16,135
Charlie's death--

644
00:31:16,178 --> 00:31:17,919
Mason's been behind all of it.

645
00:31:17,963 --> 00:31:19,268
Yeah, but what does it
add up to?

646
00:31:19,312 --> 00:31:20,269
I don't know yet.

647
00:31:20,313 --> 00:31:21,967
We're missing something.

648
00:31:22,010 --> 00:31:24,186
Feels like we caught him
too quickly.

649
00:31:24,230 --> 00:31:26,275
Everything
that you have done today

650
00:31:26,319 --> 00:31:30,497
has only dishonored your son's
memory and what he fought for.

651
00:31:30,540 --> 00:31:33,239
And the only thing that
you actually accomplished

652
00:31:33,282 --> 00:31:35,676
was murdering
a good man.

653
00:31:35,719 --> 00:31:38,418
Charlie Robinson
did not deserve to die.

654
00:31:38,461 --> 00:31:39,854
And, for that,

655
00:31:39,898 --> 00:31:43,597
you will spend the rest
of your life behind bars.

656
00:31:56,653 --> 00:31:58,394
Security to interrogation
right now!

657
00:31:58,438 --> 00:31:59,700
What the hell's
he doing?

658
00:31:59,743 --> 00:32:01,223
[grunting]

659
00:32:01,267 --> 00:32:03,182
[inhaling deeply]

660
00:32:03,225 --> 00:32:04,923
South corridor.
About to breach.

661
00:32:06,533 --> 00:32:07,708
Mac?

662
00:32:07,751 --> 00:32:09,188
[alarm blaring]

663
00:32:09,231 --> 00:32:10,102
Mac.

664
00:32:10,145 --> 00:32:11,842
Get me a medical team! Now!

665
00:32:11,886 --> 00:32:12,931
Where's Mason?

666
00:32:15,063 --> 00:32:16,064
He's gone.

667
00:32:24,681 --> 00:32:26,553
Secure the perimeter!

668
00:32:26,596 --> 00:32:27,597
[excited chatter]

669
00:32:27,641 --> 00:32:29,164
Agent Nguyen,
I want to see my son.

670
00:32:29,208 --> 00:32:31,775
I hear you, boss, but a madman
just Trojan horsed himself

671
00:32:31,819 --> 00:32:34,256
into our HQ with the stated goal
of taking you down.

672
00:32:34,300 --> 00:32:36,215
Can you give me a couple
minutes to sort that out?

673
00:32:40,001 --> 00:32:41,524
I don't need protecting.

674
00:32:41,568 --> 00:32:43,396
It's not personal.
It's protocol.

675
00:32:47,008 --> 00:32:48,967
[gasping]

676
00:32:52,579 --> 00:32:53,797
What happened?

677
00:32:53,841 --> 00:32:55,495
Mason had something
hidden in a false tooth,

678
00:32:55,538 --> 00:32:57,105
which I'd normally
think was super cool,

679
00:32:57,149 --> 00:32:58,280
except he used it
to knock you out.

680
00:32:58,324 --> 00:32:59,499
Doc said it's
called BZ,

681
00:32:59,542 --> 00:33:01,327
and it's, um...Yeah. Short for

682
00:33:01,370 --> 00:33:02,632
3-Quinuclidinyl benzilate.

683
00:33:02,676 --> 00:33:03,633
It's an odorless,

684
00:33:03,677 --> 00:33:06,419
nonlethal
incapacitating agent

685
00:33:06,462 --> 00:33:08,247
that attacks
the acetylcholine receptors.

686
00:33:08,290 --> 00:33:11,424
I was gonna say "it's
not fatal," but okay.

687
00:33:11,467 --> 00:33:13,339
Where's Mason?Matty had us
put on lockdown

688
00:33:13,382 --> 00:33:14,514
after he escaped interrogation.

689
00:33:14,557 --> 00:33:15,515
[grunts]He took out a guard,

690
00:33:15,558 --> 00:33:16,733
stole his key card.

691
00:33:16,777 --> 00:33:18,213
We can't be sure
he's trying to escape.

692
00:33:18,257 --> 00:33:20,041
He could be going
after my father.

693
00:33:20,085 --> 00:33:21,956
Which is why Matty had Oversight
taken to the safe room.

694
00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:23,871
Okay. Let's go.

695
00:33:23,914 --> 00:33:27,309
RILEY: I managed to shut down
the stolen access key

696
00:33:27,353 --> 00:33:29,485
but not before Mason used
it to open a few doors.

697
00:33:29,529 --> 00:33:31,748
Do we know which direction
he's heading,

698
00:33:31,792 --> 00:33:32,967
how he's getting out?Weirdly,

699
00:33:33,011 --> 00:33:34,099
he's not heading
for an exit.

700
00:33:34,142 --> 00:33:35,535
He went to Sub-Level 4.

701
00:33:35,578 --> 00:33:37,624
What's down there?Mostly storage.

702
00:33:37,667 --> 00:33:40,105
Except for the server farm I
set up after the doxxing attack.

703
00:33:40,148 --> 00:33:41,932
BOZER:
Is Mason taking advantage

704
00:33:41,976 --> 00:33:43,804
of our situation
to go after our intel?

705
00:33:43,847 --> 00:33:45,066
There's no activity
on the servers, but...

706
00:33:45,110 --> 00:33:46,111
[computer beeping]

707
00:33:46,154 --> 00:33:47,764
The coolant system
just went down.

708
00:33:47,808 --> 00:33:48,809
The temperature in the room
is spiking.

709
00:33:50,071 --> 00:33:51,377
He's overclocking
the servers.

710
00:33:51,420 --> 00:33:52,334
Why would he do that?

711
00:33:52,378 --> 00:33:53,422
[alarm blaring]

712
00:33:53,466 --> 00:33:55,555
Fire alarms.

713
00:33:57,600 --> 00:33:59,037
Riley, open the building.
Take us out

714
00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:00,038
of lockdown.

715
00:34:00,081 --> 00:34:01,865
With Mason still
on the loose?

716
00:34:01,909 --> 00:34:03,389
Do it.

717
00:34:03,432 --> 00:34:05,086
I can't.MacGYVER:
All right, try to activate

718
00:34:05,130 --> 00:34:08,133
the fire suppression systems
in the sub-basement.

719
00:34:08,176 --> 00:34:09,656
There's no response.
It's off-line.

720
00:34:09,699 --> 00:34:10,700
How the hell is
he doing this?

721
00:34:10,744 --> 00:34:12,006
All of those systems are run

722
00:34:12,050 --> 00:34:13,486
from the same server room.This was his endgame--

723
00:34:13,529 --> 00:34:15,009
to get himself brought
into the Phoenix.

724
00:34:15,053 --> 00:34:16,837
Where we've gathered
into one place everyone

725
00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:19,013
and everything
Mason wants to destroy.

726
00:34:21,059 --> 00:34:24,062
I got to get down there.
I got to shut off the servers
before they catch fire.

727
00:34:24,105 --> 00:34:26,020
I'm with you.Bozer, Desi,
find me Mason.

728
00:34:27,674 --> 00:34:29,110
[door closes]

729
00:34:30,155 --> 00:34:31,895
We're too late.

730
00:34:31,939 --> 00:34:33,375
[coughing]

731
00:34:33,419 --> 00:34:36,161
Matty, you have
to evacuate the Phoenix now.

732
00:34:36,204 --> 00:34:38,032
Mason tricked us
into locking ourselves in here,

733
00:34:38,076 --> 00:34:40,078
and now the environmental
control system... [coughs]

734
00:34:40,121 --> 00:34:43,255
is gonna work against us
by spreading the toxic smoke.

735
00:34:46,127 --> 00:34:47,215
[coughing, shouting]

736
00:34:47,259 --> 00:34:48,608
Bad news, Mac.
It's already happening.

737
00:34:49,783 --> 00:34:51,480
[coughing, shouting]

738
00:34:53,917 --> 00:34:55,136
[coughs]

739
00:34:59,140 --> 00:35:01,490
Riley, head upstairs.
I'm going after Mason.

740
00:35:01,534 --> 00:35:04,232
[alarm continues blaring]

741
00:35:11,196 --> 00:35:13,894
[creaking]

742
00:35:13,937 --> 00:35:15,678
[coughing]

743
00:35:15,722 --> 00:35:17,115
DESI:
Everybody get back.

744
00:35:19,204 --> 00:35:20,248
MATTY:
Okay, I want

745
00:35:20,292 --> 00:35:21,467
a single file line!

746
00:35:21,510 --> 00:35:24,078
Move, move![coughing, excited chatter]

747
00:35:25,123 --> 00:35:26,776
Where's Oversight?

748
00:35:26,820 --> 00:35:28,691
Watch your head,
watch your head.I sent a guard to go get him,

749
00:35:28,735 --> 00:35:29,736
but they should've been back
by now.

750
00:35:29,779 --> 00:35:31,651
I'll go.Yeah. I'll go with you.

751
00:35:31,694 --> 00:35:35,742
[coughing]

752
00:35:47,057 --> 00:35:49,843
[alarm continues blaring]

753
00:35:49,886 --> 00:35:51,845
My card won't work.
I'm locked out.

754
00:35:51,888 --> 00:35:53,151
It's no use. All the Phoenix
systems are down.

755
00:35:56,066 --> 00:35:58,068
It's four inches
of reinforced steel.

756
00:35:58,112 --> 00:35:59,200
I guess we're gonna need
something stronger.

757
00:35:59,244 --> 00:36:00,375
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

758
00:36:01,724 --> 00:36:05,119
Matty, that's everybody.

759
00:36:05,163 --> 00:36:06,381
Except...Riley,

760
00:36:06,425 --> 00:36:08,122
what's your status?We can't open the door

761
00:36:08,166 --> 00:36:09,210
to the safe room.

762
00:36:09,254 --> 00:36:13,127
[gasping, coughing]

763
00:36:18,741 --> 00:36:20,265
RILEY:
Whoa, whoa!

764
00:36:20,308 --> 00:36:21,701
The hell?[grunts]

765
00:36:21,744 --> 00:36:24,007
Flash bang!

766
00:36:26,880 --> 00:36:29,535
Oh! You sure you should be
doing that?Mac would.

767
00:36:29,578 --> 00:36:30,666
Get back.

768
00:36:38,892 --> 00:36:40,241
GUARD:
Let's go, Agent.

769
00:36:40,285 --> 00:36:43,723
We have to get out of here.
Come on. There you go.

770
00:36:43,766 --> 00:36:45,594
Hey.

771
00:36:47,030 --> 00:36:49,990
[coughing]We got Oversight.

772
00:36:51,513 --> 00:36:52,558
Good. I'm glad to hear that.

773
00:36:52,601 --> 00:36:54,516
Mac, do you copy?

774
00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:55,561
Mac?

775
00:37:09,923 --> 00:37:11,794
MASON:
Go, go, go!

776
00:37:20,020 --> 00:37:24,024
Don't worry, Angus.
This is far from done.

777
00:37:41,346 --> 00:37:43,304
[fire crackling]

778
00:37:43,348 --> 00:37:44,784
[door closes]

779
00:37:46,742 --> 00:37:51,051
Mac? We've got
the five eyes

780
00:37:51,094 --> 00:37:54,489
and a dozen other intelligence
agencies searching for Mason.

781
00:37:54,533 --> 00:37:56,448
The second he comes up for air,
we're gonna be

782
00:37:56,491 --> 00:37:59,320
the first to know.Thank you.

783
00:37:59,364 --> 00:38:02,105
I made a promise to Charlie,
and I intend on keeping it.

784
00:38:02,149 --> 00:38:03,542
BOZER:
Count me in.

785
00:38:03,585 --> 00:38:05,848
Me, too.

786
00:38:17,120 --> 00:38:18,208
MacGYVER:
Hey.

787
00:38:18,252 --> 00:38:20,341
I wanted to thank you

788
00:38:20,385 --> 00:38:22,474
for saving my father.

789
00:38:22,517 --> 00:38:27,000
I heard what you did was
a little, well, risky.

790
00:38:27,043 --> 00:38:30,438
I only did what I thought
you would do.

791
00:38:30,482 --> 00:38:32,222
Guess you're rubbing off on me.Well, thanks.

792
00:38:32,266 --> 00:38:34,007
You want a beer?

793
00:38:35,922 --> 00:38:37,097
Yeah. Sure.

794
00:38:37,140 --> 00:38:39,099
I got some time.Look at that.

795
00:38:41,057 --> 00:38:44,452
Actually, got off
the phone with Jack.Really? How's he doing?

796
00:38:44,496 --> 00:38:46,846
He seems good.
Uh, he misses his family.

797
00:38:46,889 --> 00:38:48,804
I try to catch him up
on things,

798
00:38:48,848 --> 00:38:50,806
but you know him.
Couldn't get a word in.Yeah.

799
00:38:50,850 --> 00:38:52,330
[both chuckling]

800
00:38:52,373 --> 00:38:55,681
Uh, point is, he's still
tracking down Kovacs,

801
00:38:55,724 --> 00:38:58,597
so... looks like you're stuck
with me a little while longer.

802
00:38:58,640 --> 00:39:01,991
Well, I miss the big lug,
but I'm glad you're on the team.

803
00:39:02,035 --> 00:39:03,428
Glad to be here.

804
00:39:03,471 --> 00:39:06,605
And look, when it comes
to that truth,

805
00:39:06,648 --> 00:39:08,346
why you owe him...

806
00:39:08,389 --> 00:39:11,827
feel free to tell us
in your own time, no pressure.

807
00:39:13,873 --> 00:39:16,397
How 'bout next week
we grab a bite to eat?

808
00:39:16,441 --> 00:39:18,268
You tell me about Cairo,

809
00:39:18,312 --> 00:39:20,053
and I tell you about
why I owe Jack.

810
00:39:20,096 --> 00:39:21,359
It's a date.

811
00:39:23,535 --> 00:39:26,146
I meant, uh-- it's-- it's like,
it's a figure of speech.

812
00:39:26,189 --> 00:39:28,409
Social appointment.I know what you meant, egghead.

813
00:39:28,453 --> 00:39:30,803
It's fine.
I'll text you the deets.

814
00:39:30,846 --> 00:39:33,240
[chuckling]:
Yeah. Yeah.

815
00:39:38,419 --> 00:39:39,594
Just give me a moment.

816
00:39:50,692 --> 00:39:51,998
Glad you're safe.

817
00:39:54,043 --> 00:39:56,394
Well, come join us.
You want a beer?

818
00:39:58,439 --> 00:40:00,528
Everything okay?

819
00:40:00,572 --> 00:40:03,270
In Mexico, I promised to always

820
00:40:03,313 --> 00:40:05,490
keep you in the loop.

821
00:40:05,533 --> 00:40:07,535
Never lie to you again.

822
00:40:07,579 --> 00:40:09,145
Yeah. I remember.

823
00:40:09,189 --> 00:40:10,495
And the change
has been great.

824
00:40:10,538 --> 00:40:11,844
It's kind of the way
I'd always hoped

825
00:40:11,887 --> 00:40:13,411
things could be between us.

826
00:40:13,454 --> 00:40:15,413
Yeah. Me, too.

827
00:40:16,544 --> 00:40:19,547
That's why it's only fair
I think you should know

828
00:40:19,591 --> 00:40:21,506
there's more
to Mason's story.

829
00:40:23,246 --> 00:40:25,074
You deserve
the whole truth.

830
00:40:25,118 --> 00:40:27,468
The "whole truth"?

831
00:40:27,512 --> 00:40:29,775
As I said, sometimes
there's only choices

832
00:40:29,818 --> 00:40:32,691
between bad...
and worse.

833
00:40:32,734 --> 00:40:35,389
Don't tell me his son
died for nothing.

834
00:40:35,433 --> 00:40:36,782
Just the opposite.
He died for

835
00:40:36,825 --> 00:40:39,393
the most important thing
I can think of.

836
00:40:41,439 --> 00:40:43,092
What are you trying to tell me?

837
00:40:43,136 --> 00:40:47,488
The intelligence asset
on that op,

838
00:40:47,532 --> 00:40:49,359
the person he died for,

839
00:40:49,403 --> 00:40:51,318
was you.

840
00:40:51,361 --> 00:40:53,712
[exhales]Understand.

841
00:40:53,755 --> 00:40:57,367
It was... my decision.

842
00:40:57,411 --> 00:40:58,760
It was the only one
I could make.

843
00:41:02,590 --> 00:41:06,725
And youunderstand that
Charlie gave his life to save

844
00:41:06,768 --> 00:41:10,076
innocent people. Which is
exactly what I would have done.

845
00:41:10,119 --> 00:41:12,513
But what you did

846
00:41:12,557 --> 00:41:15,951
violates everything
that I believe in.

847
00:41:29,269 --> 00:41:30,705
I think you should leave.
