Recap

The pendulum blade continues to descend as the water drips from the tank, knocking the ratchet loose and lowering the blade with each swing. Spotting a shelf of wax heads, MacGyver work off his right shoe and tries to kicks it... and misses. With one shoe left, MacGyver kicks off his left shoe and hits a lever, hitting a pike mounted on a suit of armor. The pike strikes the shelf, knocking a head into the tank of water controlling the pendulum. The hair on the head enters the outlet pipe, blocking the flow of water just in time. The blade eventually winds down and the next morning, a cleaning lady arrives and is surprised to find MacGyver there...
