Please, put that down.

Trust me,

- you don't want to play with it. - Yeah.

Yeah. Just hand it over.

Just hand it over, okay?

- Just hand it over. - Ah.

Hand it over, little monkey, okay?

Hey, little man.

Hey, man, look what I got.

A ripe, delicious thingamabob.

All his monkey buddies are eating these outside.

They're going crazy for 'em.

Hand that detonator over, and this baby's

all yours. Hmm?

So good.

Oh. Mmm...

Mmm.

So juicy. Mmm.

Oh.

Oh, y'all eat these things?

How are they not extinct?

How are you not extinct, Jack?

What kind of Darwin Award nominee puts down a detonator

in a room full of explosives?

The kind with only two hands who had to zip... oh...

Zip-tie a rebel leader in a hurry, Riley.

- That's who. - Okay.

I just set the detonator down for a second, man.

How was I supposed to know some cappuccino monkey

was gonna go picking it up?

- Capuchin. - Ah, I think it's cappuccino.

- It's Capuchin. - Guys, it's a monkey.

MacGYVER: You know what? Good news is... safety's still on.

So we're not in any real danger,

unless he somehow figures out how to...

- (detonator whines) - (gasping)

- ... arm it. Uh-oh.

Hey, I... think we better give Curious George

something else to be curious about

before he pushes that button

- and ends us all right here. - Yeah, yeah,

- like what, like what? - I don't know.

- Hey, buddy. - (chirping)

What's this?

Yeah. Yeah. You like that, don't you?

- Want to trade? - (screeches)

Yeah. Uh-huh.

Just like...

Oh.

- We're safe. - (chirps)

Safe? What is safe about giving a knife to a monkey?

Do you have any idea what that could do?

I don't know, Jack. What?

You probably just started Planet of the Apes, man.

Hey, guys. I just...

I wanted to say thank you so much

for all the flowers and the gifts.

And, Bozer, you're right.

The leftover Christmas pastrami is surprisingly good.

So the, um, the doctors have

approved my travel request.

I'm gonna be flying home to Australia tomorrow

to be with my sister,

while I'm finishing PT.

I'm gonna miss you guys.

All of you.

So take care of each other.

Especially Jack.

And if you can...

... find Murdoc for me.

- I told her that was the plan. - Amen to that.

- How's it going over here? - Slow.

I mean, I kind of thought

you lost your mind when you said that 11 digit number

etched into that gear was a clue

that might help you find your dad.

But then, his super weird Christmas present shows up,

proving you right

but leaving me with even more questions.

Yeah, like, why do the numbers on this guy's arm

match part of the number on the gear?

Yeah. And who is this guy?

And what does he have to do with your dad?

Look, all I know for certain is he's not in any database.

What does Matty think about the dossier?

Uh, I don't know.

You haven't shown her?

Nope.

Why not? When it comes to analyzing

confusing intelligence, no one is better than...

Because I think she's involved.

Yeah.

I thought I'd found proof that she knew my dad,

so I confronted her about it.

She said she didn't.

I think she's lying,

but at the same time,

there's no way to know.

Man.

This is a lot to process, Mac.

Now I understand why you're not upset

you lost your knife.

Didn't lose it. Gave it away.

- Besides, it was just a knife. - Uh, no.

What we use to carve the Thanksgiving turkey

is "just a knife""

This was the vintage pocketknife

that your grandfather gave you.

Fair enough.

But since its final act was to save my life, and Riley's...

... I think Grandpa would be proud.

I'd be happy to order

a replacement knife for you.

Or you could just ask my replacement to order one.

Dude, for the millionth time,

you're not being replaced.

That is a vehicular combat drone for DARPA's Korman Challenge.

The competition's been going on for years,

and nothing from our lab

has ever been replaced because of it.

Well, I should hope not.

Those weapons are utterly useless in a laboratory setting.

And have you tried talking to it?

It has absolutely no personality.

That's because it doesn't need one.

The goal of the challenge is to prototype

a fully autonomous military vehicle,

not a lab assistant.

Your skill sets don't overlap in any way. Okay?

This guy could someday do for ground troops

what Predator drones have done for our Air Force.

If we could beat the CIA this year.

And the NSA. And the DoD, JPL...

Which we absolutely will. Have some faith, guys. (sighs)

- This is our year. Hey, guys?

I know you're busy

getting ready for the competition, but Jack is...

acting weird.

MacGYVER: To be fair, it would be weird

if he wasn't acting weird.

Yeah, Jill. By now,

you should know that's kind of his default setting.

Right. No, this is weird weird.

Even for Jack.

Okay.

Okay.

What's going on, Jack? Who's this guy?

Assassin? Terrorist?

No. Worse. Way worse.

Meet James LeRoy.

"Jimmy" to his friends,

and his enemies.

Uh...

sorry, did we just get a new mission?

No. He's not a mission, Riley.

That right there is my old high school nemesis.

- Seriously? - Wow.

MacGYVER: Look who finally decided to listen to me and go to his high school

- reunion. Good on you. - (growls)

Apparently, the same guy that used Phoenix resources

to dig up dirt on an innocent civilian.

"Innocent"? Who said he's innocent?

That guy right there spent

four years ruining my life,

always one-upping me.

When we both went out for class president, he won.

We both go out for starting quarterback,

he won.

And when we were both up for "best hair," guess what?

He won?

That's right. He won.

And senior year, when he beat me out for homecoming king...

I was never the same after that.

Well, you do know that homecoming kings

- hold no real power, right? - Just sayin',

this punk really shook my confidence.

Well, he may have, Jack,

- but this was years ago. - Decades.

- Centuries, even. - Yeah...

Oh, very funny. No, no.

Go ahead. Laugh it up at my expense.

I'm telling you, this was a real turning point for me in my life.

Who knows what I could've

accomplished if it weren't for that guy, right there?

If you hate the guy so much,

why are you even going to the reunion?

Well, I wasn't, but then you fools all signed up

for this robo-apocalypse contest,

and I don't want no part of that.

: Jack. The Korman Challenge

is a friendly competition.

Yeah, I'm sure that's what Miles Bennett Dyson said

when he activated Skynet

and unleashed an army of Terminators.

Does-does...

Matty even know

you guys signed up for this contest?

Can someone please tell me why I'm waiting
