Recap

MacGyver is out biking on a Sunday with a tiring Wilt for exercise, who finally gives up. Wilt heads home while MacGyver stops for a paper. A car pulls out of an alleyway and grazes MacGyver's bicycle wheel, knocking him down. The driver backs up and gets out: it's a woman, Lulu, who wants to make sure her car is okay. She insists her boss Izzy wouldn't be happy if she put another dent in it. She explains that Izzy is also her teacher and her best friend, then finally gets around to helping out MacGyver. She puts his bicycle in her trunk and offers him a lift. MacGyver reluctantly agrees and Lulu pulls out. She says she borrowed the car for a party but can't find the invitation, and offers to play some of Izzy's classical violin playing. MacGyver recognizes him Izzy as a famous violinist...

Episode Quotes
Wilt: Man, I'm so hungry I could almost eat health food.

Wilt: That's your problem, MacGyver. Not enough excitement in your life.

Lulu: By the way, I'm Lulu.
MacGyver: MacGyver.
Lulu: What's your first name?
MacGyver: My friends just call me MacGyver.
Lulu: That bad, huh?

Lulu: How old are you?
MacGyver: Thirty-nine.
Lulu: Thirty-nine and you've never been married.
MacGyver: So?
Lulu: So... that tells me one of two things. Either you've got a fear of commitment or you've got a fear of commitment.

MacGyver: Maybe you stole the wrong thing.
Lulu: I resent that. I have never stolen the wrong thing.
MacGyver: That's reassuring.

Lulu: I want to see something.
MacGyver: What?
Lulu: First name.
MacGyver: I told you, my friends call me MacGyver.
Lulu: Yeah, but it's not like Sting or Prince or something. You've got another first name, right? That's your first name?
MacGyver: Yeah. So?
Lulu: So I think I'll call you MacGyver.
