Episode Quotes
(seeing their wreck of a car)
MacGyver: That's what you ordered?
Diana Rogers: I wanted something that wouldn't attract attention.
MacGyver: Even when they see us pushing it down a highway?

Diana Rogers: For a minute I thought you were putting the moves on me.
MacGyver: Don't flatter yourself.

MacGyver: Where did you learn how to speak Czech?
Diana Rogers: Correspondence school.
MacGyver: Oh, like "the Czech is in the mail"?

MacGyver: It's kinda interesting how you can put one thing with another and cook up the right formula for stayin' out of trouble. My old high school physics and chemistry classes come in real handy sometimes. Not to mention the fact that when you're in a squeeze, necessity always seems to come through as the true mother of invention.

MacGyver: All right. I had a nitro bomb and a smoke bomb. Anybody bumped into me too hard... well, it' d be memorable.

Diana Rogers: Duct tape?
MacGyver: Never leave home without it.

Pete: What are you going to do with your share?
MacGyver: Oh, I don't know. Maybe get a new roll of duct tape.

Anton Dubcek: Thank you, you are very generous.
Diana Rogers: That's something no one ever said to me before.
MacGyver: Feels pretty good, doesn't it?

MacGyverisms:
* wine and lipstick to make a fake wound
* carbon black put in a rubber surgeon's glove, to make a smoke bomb
* puncturing the aforementioned smoke bomb, covering it with duct tape, attaching it to the lid of a food tray as a trigger
* nitroglycerine tablets, mixed with alcohol, to make an explosive
* baling wire hooked up to a car battery, to electrify a door handle
* child's plastic whistle-toy tube to deflect & catch a knife blade
