Episode Quotes |

MacGyver: Flying a small plane can be fun. It can also be kind of frightening. Now I've always felt the best way to confront a fear of the ocean is to dive right in. So it seemed like the smart way to deal with the fear of flying light planes was to take a train or a bus. Now it's possible the carburetor froze up in this ice storm I was flying through, but that didn't explain why I wasn't getting a decent throttle response. Nor was there any indication as to why the controls felt they were stuck in cement. It did not look good for the home team. | Pete: All of this would never happen in a real plane.
MacGyver: Why do I feel all this has a point? You want me to fly a plane just like that, don't you?
Pete: No, absolutely not. I would never ask you to do that. You only have to ride in one. | Pete: We've really extended the funds on this, so there's very little money involved. I mean, like none.
MacGyver: Pete, when has that ever stopped me? | MacGyver: First impressions are very important. And with this group, I knew it'd be critical. So I decided to make a grand entrance... through their noses. | MacGyver: Somebody want to fill me in?
Ramon: Nothing to fill in. The man's got a problem. We've all got problems. That's life, White Bread. | MacGyver: There's a time to be Daniel Boone, and a time to be a plumber. This one called for the latter. | Gina: Where'd you find him?
MacGyver: Having lunch with a mountain lion. | MacGyver: Things started disappearing from lockers; everybody knew it was Andy but nobody could prove it. Then one day I open up mine, and my knife is gone. I knew who did it. So I waited until after school, and I busted his nose.
Luther: Yeah? But you got your knife back, right?
MacGyver: That's right. When I got home, it was sittin' on my desk, right where I left it. You sure you got your facts straight, Luther? Think about it. | Pete: That means that they went down way off course. Doesn't it?
Search Coordinator: There's a thousand square miles of rough wilderness out there. I'm sorry, it's not very hopeful.
Pete: You don't know MacGyver. | MacGyver: All I got to do is find an airport, get them to lay down some foam, and land. That's all.
Ramon: If you can do what you just did, you could land this thing on the moon. |

* A hollowed out log to redirect water from a stream to scare off a mountain lion
* Rubber tubing from a plane, combined with a radio headset, to make a stethoscope
* A hollowed out log, 3' long, as a front ski on a plane, and mud in front of the plane in a trough for the ski to follow
* Earrings mounted on two branches in the shape of a T, to make a surveyor's sighting tool |
