Recap

MacGyver returns to his hotel room to find Jack waiting for him. Jack's been waiting for him since MacGyver disappeared with Lisa. MacGyver explains what happened and how he has to steal the Ming Dragon to save the Kossovs. Jack figures it's easy but MacGyver notes that Pete is the only one with the combination for the lock. He refuses to involve Pete since it would ruin his career, but he needs Jack's help. Jack is glad to help, and MacGyver warns that they can't go in until daylight when Pete leaves...

Episode Quotes
Jack Dalton: Call it and get it. He's your friend, he looks the other way. You borrow the Dragon as bait to get Lisa and Kossov out, up up and away.
MacGyver: How?
Jack Dalton: You'll come up with something. That's what you're good at.

Jack Dalton: Wouldn't it have been easier just to check in?
MacGyver: Yeah, but not half as much fun.

(talking with a flashlight in his mouth)
Jack Dalton: Haw muff fuffa?
MacGyver: You studyin' Russian?
(takes it out of his mouth)
Jack Dalton: How much further??

MacGyver: Jack, doesn't this remind you of the time you were climbing through that Mayan pyramid full of snakes and spiders?
Jack Dalton: Did I tell you about that?
MacGyver: In great detail.
Jack Dalton: Well, actually, I didn't exactly participate in that crawl. But I saw the movie.
MacGyver: That's a comfort.

MacGyver: Arnold Palmer's birthday. Pete's hero.
Jack Dalton: How in God's name can you know Arnold Palmer's birthday?!
MacGyver: Doesn't everyone?

Lisa Kohler: You were both unbelievable.
Jack Dalton: Ah, shucks, ma'am, you're just saying that because it's true.

Jack Dalton: You almost got killed for this thing. Worse, I almost got killed!

Pete: MacGyver, you're a genius.
Jack Dalton: That's a matter of opinion.
