Episode Quotes |

MacGyver: There's got to be a gigantic secret factory somewhere puttin' out nothing but junk mail.
| MacGyver: Now, technically I'm driving a stolen car, following a kidnapping . . . and I still haven't had my first cup of coffee.
| Frank Bennett: We're brothers, Joey. It's just a word: it stopped meaning anything a long time ago.
| Joey Bennett: No trouble, right? Not here… but I owe you.
MacGyver: I'd love to collect sometime.
| MacGyver: I know a brick wall when it falls on me.
| MacGyver: Lots of people think a car runs on gas. Only one-third correct. A car also runs on air and water.
| MacGyver: With all due respect, sir, I do what I do the way I do it.
| MacGyver: This problem's kinda tricky: no place to go, and no way to get there.

MacGyverisms:
* Paper clip to hotwire a car
* Table saw to shoot pieces of lumber and shop vac to blow sawdust as a distraction
* Soda pop poured over dry ice, pop rocks added, to simulate smoke from a fire
* A length of pole on string, placed on stairs and rigged to be pulled up so someone trips over it
* Camphor balls and cleaner fluid as propellant, telescope and a metal spike as a makeshift cannon to fire the spike over a fence, pulleys to cross over on the cable attached to the spike
