MacGyver

Previously on MacGyver...

Ethan Reigns is my husband.

My name is Ethan Reigns.

I'm making this video because

tomorrow I start deep cover.

Matty, I'm so sorry.

S-Company knows there's an

undercover CIA agent in the ranks.

They will kill you when they find out it's you.

Nod if you understand. Ethan, what happened?

Daddy! I met Deena

while I was undercover,

and then our daughter was bor.

It just became my life.

S-Company learned your location.

It's no longer safe here.

This part of Nebraska

we're going to is really beautiful.

You'll never see me again.

Bye, Matty.

Ooh.

A slice of your best pie, please.

Got to check out the competition. I've had it,

I would not call it competition.

Thanks so much for meeting with me.

Yeah, sure. You said on the phone

that you had something of interest for the Phoenix.

I'm here. I'm listening.

My boy Billy and I have been tracking a skip that jumped bail

all the way across the Atlantic. Name's Ryan Hayes.

The billionaire's son suspected

of funneling money to terrorists?

Mm-hmm. The DOJ has been trying to make

a case against him for years.

Then you know that he got busted on drug charges.

Posted bail,

promptly hopped on a private plane to Paris

before his arrest could hit the Fed's radar.

I'm aware.

It's my understanding that you don't work internationally.

We don't,

which is why I was thinking to myself,

"Self," I said, "taking a terrorist financier

"off of the streets might be of interest

"to my favorite director

of a secret spy organization."

Am I right?

Bagging Hayes would definitely be a coup,

and I suspect a high-profile bust like this

wouldn't hurt the Coltons, either.

Thank you.

What do you need from me?

Well, I was hoping that you might loan me the talents

of a certain young woman

with a formidable set of computer skills.

Billy and Riley are dating each other.

Sending them on a mission to Paris,

they could get distracted.

Distracted or not, the Coltons always get their mark.

Besides,

Mama will be there to make sure

that the Phoenix gets their share.

Mama...

...you got yourself a deal.

Yes! That's what I'm talking about.

Ah!

Ah!

Okay,

I did try to warn you.

This is a tragedy.

Agreed.

Excuse me.

Ethan?

Where are you?

Sorry. I didn't know who else to call. What's happening?

You're in WITSEC.

You're not supposed to contact me.

S-Company found me. They nabbed Mara and Deena.

I'll have every resource on this within an hour. No, you can't.

They called with a ransom demand. They said if I involved

any agencies, they'd kill them both.

Who called?

August Roth.

What does he want? Since I left,

he's been on a mission to eradicate every mole

in the organization.

He's giving me 48 hours to get him a list

of every undercover CIA agent currently with S-Company.

But you don't have that list.

Agents are sent in without knowledge of each other

for this very reason. I know. That's why I contacted you.

Tell me you're not about

to ask me what I think you're about to ask me.

The lives of my wife and child are at stake.

You want to give Roth the list of every undercover agent

in his organization and you want my help to do it.

It has to be the real list. He'll know if it's fake.

Ethan, you give Roth that list,

he'll kill every undercover agent in his organization.

Their blood will be on your hands.

I can't meet with Roth without the list.

And if I don't meet with him,

there is no way to get Deena and Mara back.

I know what the stakes are.

If I have to

turn over the list, I will do everything I can

to warn all the men and women who are on it.

There's only person with that list, the Director of the CIA.

He carries it on his cell phone

in an encrypted file so it's never out of his sight.

I know, that's why I'm gonna steal it from him.

What? But I can't do it alone.

Ethan, what you're planning,

what we're talking about

is treason. I know.

But there is no other way to save my family.

Will you help me?

We had a meeting. Where are you?

Sorry, Jim. Something came up.

As in you're running late?

As in I'm not coming in.

I'm going off the grid for a couple of days.

What's in Virginia?

Jim, don't track me. Well, don't keep secrets from me.

What's going on?

I'm gonna need you to trust me on this one.

It's better that you don't know.

That's not good enough.

It's gonna have to be.

What about the team?

Jim, we can't have this conversation.

I'll take that as a yes. If you don't want to be associated

with an act of treason,

then I suggest you hang up this phone right now.

Matty...

That's all I'm gonna say.

Good luck.

Thank you.

Don't thank me until your wife and daughter are safe.

Did Matty say where we were going? No.

Not yet.

Hey.

Okay, I need to ask.

Are we really sure we want to be involved in this?

Because if we're caught,

we're gonna be tried as accomplices to treason.

We'd spend the rest of our lives in prison.

And not one of the nice prisons.

It'd be a bad one. I hear what you're saying.

Okay? But Matty knows exactly what she's doing.

Agreed.

If Matty needs my help,

then I'm gonna go help her.

So if Matty goes to jail,

you're willing to go with her?

Only if we fail.

Look, if we can find

Mara and Deena before the 48 hours are up,

we avoid the whole treason thing altogether.

And if not?

I call top bunk.

Relax. Nobody's going to jail.

Oh. There she is.

Look, this mission is volunteer-only.

Disavow protocol is in effect, so...

it's up to you if you want to go.

But if you're not in...

You should leave.

Now.

My job is to protect you all.

So if you're going on this insane mission,

count me in.

Hey, Matty.

Mac, are you sure you want to do this?

If you're asking me to confirm what I already told you,

then, yes, I'm in.

Me, too.

Make that court-martial for three.

Putting you on speaker.

What's the news?

I managed to trace the phone where the ransom call came from.

So we know where August is?

No, it's not gonna be that easy, I'm afraid.

August has become really careful

since he took over S-Company.

He doesn't even touch his own phone.

It's probably one of his guys' phones.

But this guy could know

where Deena and Mara are being held. Exactly.

I uploaded the phone's location to your tracking software.

Okay, so it looks like our only lead on Deena and Mara is

taking us to Belarus.

Look, I-I have to thank all of you for risking

your lives to help find my family.

Ethan and I are going to get the list,

but handing it over to S-Company is a last resort.

Only if you guys fail.

So, Mac...

Don't fail. Got it.
