MacGyver

Scooby, come here. Hi.

You want to come here and give me that key?

Come on.

I don't think he likes you.

You know, this does, uh,

remind me, though, of that, uh...

- that jungle ride. You remember that? - No.

It's the pirate ride.

The jungle ride is the one you're no longer allowed on.

That animatronic hippo mishap,

that was... that was not my fault.

You sunk the boat.

Yeah, whatever. They overreacted.

Wasn't that big of a deal.

And, you know, I always thought pirates were pretty cool...

Like, Captain Hook was my favorite character...

But in reality,

- they kind of suck. - At least we can agree on one thing.

They rigged this thing with enough explosives

to blow us away even if I try

to pick it or shake any of these loose.

I got this.

What dog worth his salt

could resist...

a nice, juicy cow bone?

You're gonna be real upset when you realize what that is.

Lion bone. Yeah, whatever.

The only lions in Slovenia are in zoos.

This human?

Well, there's a tool for every job, I guess.

Hey, boy, you hungry?

How about a nice, juicy...

human leg bone.

Come on, boy.

You know, this could've been us.

Still could be.

I'm gonna think positive.

Come on, boy. How can you resist?

Huh? Look.

Yes.

I told you I could talk to animals.

We can't reach that.

Can you... can you whip up some go-go-gadget arms

or something right now?

Actually, yeah. Yeah, I can.

I can.

- Nice. - Yeah.

You got it.

Easy.

- No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. - No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

- Bad doggy. Bad dog. - Come back.

Don't you want your juicy bone?

I don't suppose you have a plan B, do you? Huh?

Um...

what is this?

- A brand-new Bentley. - I see that.

But when you said you were renting

a Winnebago for the road trip,

I thought you were renting a Winnebago.

Anything wrong with wanting to take my girl

on a road trip in style?

Babe, you know I don't care about these things.

And that's why you're my girl.

But L.A. to Dallas is a long trip,

and I want to do this thing right.

You do everything right.

- Here, let me take that. - All right.

- And that. - Thank you.

This thing is nice.

So how much this set you back?

Not a penny.

Some skip put it up for collateral.

He jumped bail. His loss, our gain.

Does Mama know we're driving this?

We could even take turns at the wheel.

That's definitely happening.

Oh, and I got the music, too.

Oh, no. I fell into that trap before.

We're taking turns deejaying.

All right. Deal.

All right, this is definitely cooler than a Winnebago.

Hey. Hello.

What in the hell is going on in here?

We couldn't decide on what to order for lunch,

so we're settling it with a plank contest.

Yeah, whoever holds out the longest gets to choose.

Hmm. Sounds like some millennial fun right there.

Oh.

Whoa. What, uh...

what's going on with our fridge, man?

Oh, you mean my fridge?

Just a little cleaning and organizing.

Oh, cleaning and organizing.

Okay, good, good.

If it's so organized, then, uh,

how come I can't find my sandwich?

You mean the soggy thing in the foil?

Oh, please don't tell me you threw out my sandwich.

Yeah. It was, like, a month old, Jack.

No, it... No, it wasn't.

It was... anyway... Marinating.

How you holding up?

Good.

I can do this all day.

Oh, my gosh, that's so funny, 'cause so could I.

Sushi it is.

That's all right.

- Hey, Mac, come here for a second. - Yeah.

Come here, come here.

Yeah?

Okay...

I don't want to overstep my bounds here, okay,

but you-you know I love Leanna, I really do,

- but... what's going on? - If it's about the sandwich,

- we'll get you another one. - No, who cares

about the sandwich? It's not about the sandwich.

It starts with cleaning the fridge.

Then she's cleaning the kitchen.

Then, next thing you know...

she's cleaning the whole house.

You see where I'm going with this?

You're worried she's gonna clean the whole house?

No, no. Clean-clean houses are very cool,

but next thing you know, you're sitting on the couch,

and you're watching daytime soaps,

covered in pink throw pillows.

Is that the kind of change you want, huh?

You want little bowls of potpourri everywhere?

- Between me and you, I like potpourri. - Who doesn't love potpourri?

But.

I don't buy that for a second.

I'm afraid she's gonna change everything.

Jack, you're acting weird again.

It's Matty. She wants us mobile. We'll be briefed mid-flight.

Good, good. Yeah, we'll be right there.

Okay, that's fine, we'll go.

But listen, listen...

We'll just put this conversation on pause

until after we save the world.

Glad your priorities are in order.

Promise, after, by the way.

Right, after, after.

There's a real life lesson here.

Well, I've got a different one for you today.

The CDC is asking for help

The Center of Disease Control needs us?

Well, that can't be good.

They're keeping the details under wraps.

All they'll say is they have an inventory discrepancy.

An inventory discrepancy. So, they lost something.

Oh, man, this has zombie apocalypse written all over it.

Jack, you are about to meet with some of our country's

most highly intelligent,

highly trained scientists.

Please, try not to say anything stupid.

Normally, I'd agree with you, Matty,

but I think if anyone's gonna want to talk

about the zombie apocalypse, it's gonna be the CDC.

Go assist and report back.

If they're asking for help, something serious is going on.

Yes, ma'am.

Thank you for coming.

I'd appreciate you keeping the reason for this visit

under wraps.

Of course. Um, happy to help,

although all we've been told so far is

you have an inventory discrepancy.

Yesterday, we discovered a cryotube was missing

from the cold storage unit in our level-four biosafety lab.

Just to be clear,

level four is where the big boys live.

If by "big boys" you mean diseases with no cure, then yes.

The missing agent is a strain of a particularly deadly virus.

Mm-hmm. What kind of virus are we talking about here, Doc?

Solanum? T-Virus? What do we got?

- Those aren't even real. - Not yet, they're not.

We call it Specimen 234. It spreads fast,

like the flu, but with a 99% mortality rate.

If it got into the population,

we'd be looking at a pandemic.

Millions would die.

Has anything like this happened before?

We've had discrepancies in the past,

but nothing this deadly has been missing this long.

Misplaced samples are usually found within hours

in another storage unit or lab,

but we're having a hard time tracking this one down.

So, it's in the building, it's just playing hide and seek.

We believe Specimen 234 went missing

during an incident in the lab yesterday.

An incident.

You do know that's how horror movies start, right?

Nothing so dramatic.

It's one of the containment units

holding some experimental subjects

wasn't latched correctly.

Well, we've passed over a dozen security cameras

since we passed through the lobby,

I'm assuming you have some footage you can show us?

So, the infected rats of Nimh
