[Horse whinnies]
MacGyver: There was a time when about
the worst thing you could say about a man
was that he was a horse thief.
In some places, that's still true today,
particularly when the horse that gets stolen belongs to a king,
and it's considered to be maybe the most expensive horse alive.
[Guard speaking arabic]
MacGyver: When it's a tribal leader who does the stealing,
you've got the makings of a small war.
And because small wars have a way of becoming big ones,
it saves a lot of trouble if the horse gets back where it belongs.
[Horse neighs]
[Men shouting indistinctly]
No! Don't shoot! You'll hit the horse!
Typical.
Just when you're getting ahead, somebody always changes the odds.
Khan: No!
He is mine.
You know, we could go back to your place and talk about this.
No, I didn't think so.
[Horse neighing]
[Horse neighs]
I'm with you, pal.
I hate heights.
MacGyver: You know, my life is like a rubber ball.
No sooner do I get the horse returned,
and I bounce right into another assignment.
[Honks]
Intelligence agents are a very cautious bunch.
Take nicolai grodsky, for example, an old buddy of mine.
He's got some top-secret information.
And like any good agent,
he'll only hand it over to someone he trusts.
In this case, me.
And that's just fine.
I get to visit Budapest again.
And having a big road rally in town is like a bonus.
Sorry.
Hey! No!
MacGyver: Good opening move.
Nice fast dip, good carry.
On a scale of one to ten, ten being best, give you about a six.
Maybe a seven, but you looked down at your hand.
That's a cardinal no-no.
You gypsy?
No. Not that I know of. Why?
Because it takes a gypsy to catch a gypsy.
You look American. Want a guide?
- Jana is the best. - I don't think I'll be needing a guide.
I've been here quite a few times before. Thank you.
Okay, then I sell you a special gypsy blessing. Keep you safe.
Sell? You wanna sell me something? I just caught you!
Okay, okay. For free, because you caught me.
- That's right. Uh-huh. - Taught me a lesson.
- For free. - All right!
Go in safety.
Find what you seek.
Thank you, jana. That was very nice.
She did it again.
Man: He has been walking around for three hours.
Grodsky is a cautious man. Not surprising in a double agent,
which is why Moscow wants pictures of whomever he contacts.
Messic: The watch looks very valuable.
Kossov: It contains the name of a dozen key kgb agents in england.
We want the watch and grodsky and his contacts.
Yo, grods.
MacGyver.
I didn't expect you, old friend.
Yeah, kind of a surprise to me too.
A pleasant one, I might add. How are you doing, Nicki?
With you as my contact now, perfect.
I have the names in my watch. But not here.
The café Mozart. Remember?
Keep taping.
Grodsky: Whoo!
Jana: Here's your newspaper, sir. Grodsky: Oh, thank you.
Grodsky!
Nicolai grodsky!
[Honking]
[Speaking foreign language]
Man: What happened here?
- Is he all right? - Woman: He is dead.
The American he spoke to at the trash barrel, where is he?
- That's him. - Yo, grods.
Kossov: Freeze.
Now close-up.
Now fast-forward until...
There. Jana: Your newspaper, sir.
Kossov: Tighter.
- The watch. Messic: Uh-huh.
I want that girl. And the man.
Both, inspector.
Well, I will try. But it may be difficult.
Inspector messic, I am Russian, you are Hungarian.
But I'm sure we are comrades in socialist reality.
Please, comrade kossov, my government has given me instructions.
I am at your disposal.
We will run this man's photograph through the border control,
through all the hotels, the banks, the railways, the airport authorities.
We will find him.
And have you checked the girl?
A gypsy. Budapest has gypsies like a dog has fleas.
They have no papers, no addresses.
- They change their names... - Inspector messic...
Ivan. I love Budapest.
Good food. Excellent wine, charming women.
But if I do not retrieve grodsky's watch,
I will return to Moscow in disgrace.
An ugly, cold city.
And if I am cold...
You could freeze to death.
[Group playing festive music]
[Crowd clapping]
Thank you.
Thank you. Thank you. Luck to you, sir.
May your beauty increase, if that were possible, ma'am.
Thank you.
I'm in the market for a Swiss army knife.
Jana.
Grandfather: Don't worry about jana.
She can vanish like a shadow in the sunshine.
[Jana groaning]
All right. Okay. I've got it.
- Right here. - Thank you very much.
Now I want the watch.
Gypsies don't need a watch.
- They don't tell time. - Jana, don't mess with me.
It's worth a lot, huh?
A very good friend of mine was killed for that watch.
What do you think?
Okay, MacGyver. I'll get your watch.
Get?
You will get me the watch?
I gave it to my brother Bruno.
[Siren wailing]
All right. Let's go talk to your brother Bruno.
Jana: Police. MacGyver: Hey.
[Tires screeching]
Jana: Bruno!
Let me go. Let me go.
My brother. My brother.
They killed your friend?
So, what are they gonna do to my family?
[Jana sobbing]
Nice place.
Borza prison.
The place for political people.
I don't understand, MacGyver, my family's not bad.
Why would they bring them to a special prison?
Is it the watch?
Afraid so, honey.
- Saint dismas. - Patron Saint of thieves.
Hope he's working today.
Today he has to work extra hard.
They confessed to everything...
And nothing.
They tell a lie and lie about lying.
They're gypsies.
They're trying to protect the girl.
Hey, she's family.
But the American...
MacGyver.
We have a name and a picture,
while he has the watch.
So we'll hold them here in borza,
and we'll continue to look for the American and the girl.
I assume suitable pressure will be applied to this scum.
I don't like that, comrade major.
I will do what I must to get the watch back.
I'm not a sadist.
I'm a realist.
Twenty-four hours. No more.
Then my way.
[Whistling]
Shh. Hush.
You want a drink, gypsy?
Gypsies, they're like mongrel dogs.
It's a public service when you kill one.
[Laughing]
Why do they hate us?
Some people are scared of anybody who runs free.
Don't worry, jana. We'll figure a way to get them out.
Jana, you say the supply truck gets here about 5?
Yeah, MacGyver.
But... but they search it before it goes out.
They'd be stupid not to.
MacGyver, this doesn't make any sense to me.
MacGyver: Think of it as a light-bulb sandwich.
And hope they swallow it.
Truck should be here any minute. Let's go.
[Man speaks in Hungarian]
[Speaking in Hungarian]
[Laughing]
MacGyver: Excuse me, guys.
My mom had a chili recipe that would just about blow your socks off.
Shake of this, pinch of that, and just let it cook.
I changed the ingredients a little.
Salt, sugar, weed killer. I wouldn't wanna eat it.
But the end result should be...
Dynamite.
[Sizzling]
[Whistling]
Jana thought you might wanna get out of here.
Stefan: The American?
- From the street corner. - Name's MacGyver.
How do we arrange this leaving?
Well, I've got some plans.
- You guys just hang tough, all right? - Yeah.
Okay, guys, get crazy.
[Yelling indistinctly]
[Guard speaks in Hungarian]
Back to work. Back.
Chili should nearly be cooked.
Time to wrap this thing up.
[Engine rumbles]
[Siren wailing]
Cernik: It's an escape plan.
[Giggling]
[Gunshots]
MacGyver: Jana, let's go!
Okay, you guys, settle down.
- Now, where's my watch? - I sold it.
You sold it?
The man who said, "life is just a bowl of cherries",
had it wrong.
It's a bowl of Hungarian goulash.
Hot and sticky.
And I'm not that hungry.
Am I too late for happy hour?
[Music playing]
Jana's brother sold the watch to another gypsy,
a fence named reena.
Trendy little joint she's got here.
I see the beautiful people just stopped in
to have a quick cocktail before the ballet.
Evening, gents.
I'm looking for a...
For reena.
Reena.
That is nice name.
What is yours?
MacGyver.
What do you want, MacGyver?
Well, now, that's kind of personal.
- And important too. - Then we are truly interested.
Where do you come from and why?
What exactly is your business with reena?
Well, now, you seem to be asking more questions
than I'm willing to answer at the moment.
Boys. Boys.
Let's talk.
See, I'm just kind of a peace-loving guy like the rest of you.
I like a good time.
Let's not be ridiculous.
Now that I have your undivided attention...
Woman: MacGyver.
I am reena.
Why don't we talk.
Okay.
Excuse me.
You know, I really don't drink too much.
Virtuous? Or suspicious?
- Habit. - No matter.
To your health, MacGyver.
Which would be in considerable risk if I sent you back downstairs.
Yeah, is there a back way out of here?
Of course. Several.
But you have to earn them.
Which brings us to business.
You're American. What are you selling, blue jeans?
Buying.
Digital or spring-wound?
Old-fashioned.
It's a family heirloom.
Yeah, I know. I know the family that sold it to you.
Those stinking gypsy wharf rats.
If their hides were worth the trouble, I'd have them gutted,
skinned and used as rugs.
I thought you were a gypsy too.
I am. Takes one to know one.
And how do you know them, MacGyver?
MacGyver: Oh...
Call it luck.
[Laughing]
I know exactly what you mean.
Tell me why this is worth so much to you.
You're okay, reena. I think I'm gonna have to be honest with you.
Never say that to a gypsy. It makes us nervous.
Okay.
The watch carries information.
I want it, your police want it,
the Russians want it bad enough to kill for it.
You're telling the truth.
That your lie detector?
Gypsy magic. And, like most gypsy magic,
a cheat, but nice.
You said information. You mean political.
What kind?
Let me show you.
Names of some of their people.
Reena: Who spy on some of your people.
Yeah, something like that.
What are you offering, MacGyver?
Well, reena, I don't have a lot of cash on me.
- Do you take plastic? - I don't deal in credit.
[Whistle blowing]
[Men talking indistinctly]
You can't afford to buy it, MacGyver...
So it's a gift.
I owe you one.
Taxi!
Come on!
Stefan: Hurry up. The police are right behind us.
MacGyver. So you owe us for helping you, right?
- Jana... - It's only that we like you, MacGyver.
We wanna go with you.
- Where? - America. America.
- Right, right. - Jana: The us. Of a.
Clint Eastwood. Coca-Cola.
Jana...
Girls just wanna have fun.
Please.
Oh, no.
Can you get mechanics' overalls for the whole family?
Like a shoot. Why?
We're gonna have to get across the border fast.
That rally at boot park's got all kinds of racing cars,
and I figure we're gonna have to borrow a few. You know what I mean?
I think tamasz is going to be unhappy about his taxi.
- It's okay. We'll be in america. - MacGyver: Y'all know what to do?
- All: Yes. - Let's go.
A credit card can usually get you out of a jam.
I'm hoping this will create one.
So, what did he say?
They found that gypsy taxi in boot park.
Kossov: And MacGyver?
Make the assumption.
You may save yourself those cold winters in Moscow, comrade.
[Siren wailing]
Let's go.
[Whistle blowing]
[Woman screams]
Messic: All mobile units, close pursuit.
What is wrong with the traffic signals?
[Honking]
That will do no good.
Messic: I'm right behind them.
Motorcycle police. They got through the traffic jam, MacGyver.
Hang on. We're just gonna have to go where they can't for now.
Why are all the lights against us?
Inspector, can't you go any faster?
[Woman screams]
Delicious.
Jana: We can't go this way, MacGyver.
[Jana screaming]
Into the horvath building?
It connects with two underground garages.
[Jana screaming]
[Screaming]
[Music playing on radio]
Rock 'n' roll. Is this what you wanted it for?
MacGyver: Not exactly.
- Get some duct tape out of my pocket. - Jana: Okay.
Messic: We are closing in.
MacGyver: Now take the police radio
and tape it to your transistor.
Messic: Heading to intercept.
They've already crossed half the city.
They are heading for St. Ivan's.
Inspector messic here.
All units. All units seal off the church of St. Ivan.
Is this okay, MacGyver?
Yeah, not bad.
Now, if we can get that up on something tall,
we can blow out police radios for a mile.
[Music playing on radio]
That's unbearable. What is...? What's going...?
Can't you turn that off?
- Is that your tall building? - It's the best I could do.
It's terrific.
Inspector messic here.
Messic here.
Can you read me? This is inspector messic.
They're heading for the border.
[Men yelling in Hungarian]
MacGyver: I sure hope your cousins got to the gate in time.
[Siren wailing]
[Men cheering]
They're in Austria. We can't afford a major incident.
Thank you, comrade major.
MacGyver!
I'll remember him.
- MacGyver: You got it! - Yeah!
Bruno & Stefan: All right.
MacGyver.
How can I...?
- How can we...? - MacGyver: Oh. There's nothing to it.
It'll take a couple of days to get you processed, but you're on your way.
Bruno: We're free. MacGyver: Congratulations.
You're leaving us now.
Well, yeah, honey, I have to.
Hey.
Here.
- But you need it. - Now, come on. You earned it.
Jana, you don't have to do this.
You earned it.
Come here.
