Episode Quotes
Pete: I told the board you would do it. I gave them my word. I made a commitment.
MacGyver: You committed me! Without asking me, without giving me a chance to say yes or no. Now, come on, Pete, look at me! I'm a hurtin' guy, I'm beat up. I need a month's worth of sleep... and I need a haircut!

Emmenthaler: But a man needs a gun.
MacGyver: You know, I can't figure why. I wasn't born with one. Surely don't plan on dying with one.
Emmenthaler: My friend, you will die much quicker without one. You will be the only man in Montana without a gun. How will you defend yourself?
MacGyver: I'll just have to think of something.

MacGyver: You think the marshal in Serenity will stand up to Murdoc?
Pete: Wyatt? He's about as tough as a bucket of warm spit. Nobody in town's going to help us. They're all scared of Murdoc.
MacGyver: That's reasonable. So am I.
