Now that I have your attention,

let it be known that
the annual Fizzics Follies

has been fractioned
to the final four finalists.

The great, just ask him,
Geoffrey Kramer.

Yay, Geoffrey!

The beautiful, in both brain and body,
Hillary Chapman.

All right, Hillary! You get my vote.

The prodigal son of
the great one himself, David Ryman.

- All right, David.
- You can do it.

And last, but certainly not least,

this year's cinch winner
with the best barricade

since the Great Wall of China,

me.

Good luck, everybody.

- See you later.
- MacGyver!

- Bye.
- Hey, MacGyver!

Dad told me you were
coming to judge the Barricade Contest.

It's tough to refuse
a request from your dad.

- How you doing, David?
- Oh, pretty good.

You sure haven't changed much.

That's the same jacket
you had ten years ago.

Yeah, I'm kind of attached to it.

Congratulations,
I hear you're a finalist.

Following Ryman family tradition
right down the line.

Now all I got to do is win.

Don't worry, with you here
as referee, the fix is in.

Sure it is.

I gotta pick something up.
You checking in with the great one?

- Yup.
- Okay, I'll catch you there.

The Fizzics Follies had been a tradition
at Western Tech for almost 30 years.

The first winner of the Barricade
Contest was my mentor, Julian Ryman,

who barricaded the lab in the
physics building his senior year.

Ryman went on to become
a professor and a Nobel Prize winner.

Not all of us were so brilliant.

Welcome back, MacGyver.

- Reflecting on past glories?
- Does bring back some memories.

- How you doing, professor?
- Oh, fine.

I continue to be a little disappointed

when those who show
a shred of promise flee the fold.

There you are, MacGyver,
in the Physics Hall of Fame.

But where are you, MacGyver?

- Happy. Doing what I'm doing.
- Nonsense.

- You should've stayed with physics.
- I expanded my horizons.

Went in other directions.

Looking forward to seeing your
son's picture up there along with yours?

I saw David outside, how's he doing?

B's, he's getting B's. A few A's.

That's not what I mean.
How is he doing?

Fine.

Come and see the
next generation in action.

You can be depressed along with me.

Twenty-three point seven below.
Perfect.

Hi.

When I heard the rumour about some nerd

breaking into the
ROTC storage compound

and making off with their cannon,
I wondered, where's David?

Vicious lies.

I didn't forget. Happy birthday.

Thanks. It was yesterday.

- I'm sorry.
- You seem to say that a lot lately.

Well, I've had a lot on my mind lately.

Like the Barricade Contest?

You didn't sleep again last night,
did you?

You look awful.
You're gonna kill yourself.

- Well, the thought crossed my mind.
- Quit talking like that.

I'm kidding. Just kidding.

I've got 84... Here he comes.

- You did?
- Yeah.

- Good afternoon, Professor Ryman.
- Afternoon.

Class, I would like to
introduce to you Mr MacGyver,

who will be observing today.

- Hi.
- Hi.

Mr MacGyver is a former student here,

though, of course, not in your league.

He was gifted.

Mr MacGyver is also the alumni referee

for the culmination
of the Barricade Contest,

so I know you're going to treat him
with deference and respect.

Ready your experiments,
I'll check them over.

You may not be able to tell
from some of the constructions,

but the prodigies are all focusing
on low-temperature physics.

Superconductors,

because that's where
all the big bucks are today,

isn't that right, my little geniuses?

- Using argon?
- Yes, sir.

How thin is your film?

I got it down to four atomic layers.

That's impressive, Mr Kramer.
Very impressive.

Thank you, sir.

Look at this,
these results don't make any sense.

Well, maybe you've got a leak
in the plumbing here somewhere.

You're right,
but I had it plugged yesterday.

Run the mass spectrometer again.

- Well, there it is.
- Have you tried silicone, Apiezon?

Silicone didn't work,
stockroom's out of Apiezon.

You need something to stick in the
fracture that'll expand as it freezes.

- Like what?
- Think... for a change.

Yeah, well, I need
the materials, don't I?

- Improvise, David.
- With what?

MacGyver could fix it, couldn't you?

- Spit.
- Sir?

Spit, spit, spit!

Nothing worse than a physicist
stupefied by the obvious.

- Don't let him get to you.
- No sweat.

Wasn't that a little rough?

Physics is about truth, not tact.

- I was rough on you too.
- Yes, you were. You were a tyrant.

But you humiliated David. He's your son!

Nobody's going
to give him any points for that.

Oh, I should have seen it!

I worked hours to plug that leak,
my father does it in three seconds.

He's done physics his whole life.

- Yeah, and a Nobel Prize.
- But you've got me.

He'll notice when I win
the Barricade Contest.

- That contest is not the whole world.
- Oh, I'm gonna win.

And I'm gonna get my picture
up on that wall next to his.

You want to see it?
You want to see my barricade?

You're kidding.

You're going to share
the best kept secret on this campus?

I'm honoured. I'm flattered, I'm...

- Hey, this is a limited-time offer.
- Lead on.

I've been waiting months
to see your barricade, David.

Bizarre, David. Really bizarre.

- Are you hiding a woman back there?
- Don't look back there!

David, I've never seen you so jumpy.

If you don't want to show it to me,
I can wait.

No, it's just I want you to try
and figure it out first, okay?

I'm sorry.

Just wait till you see this.

- A garage door opener.
- Oh, you ain't seen nothing yet.

A miniature! That's incredible!
No wonder it's been taking so long.

The true genius
is the way the miniature works.

- You mean it actually opens and closes?
- Yeah. Just like the real thing.

Okay, step one.

You're here to bust my barricade.

- What's the first thing you do?
- Look through the peephole.

- What do you see?
- I see a room and a garage door opener.

Right. But now...

A periscope over the peephole.

The plot thickens.
Now what are you doing?

I'm lining up the model
with the periscope.

If you look through the peephole,
what do you see?

I see the same thing.

I see what looks like the room,
but it's the miniature.

- Door locked?
- Door locked.

Okay. What does a brilliant
barricade buster do next?

I dig up a scanner to locate
the frequency your remote operates on.

Excellent, excellent.

- Now, assuming you find it.
- Push the button.

- And the miniature opens.
- Right.

And at the same time that's happening,
the big motor turns

and the real one closes. Look.

The door is open the whole time
they're trying to figure it out?

When they solve the problem,
the solution creates the barricade.

- Well, what do you think?
- It's brilliant!

Worthy of the Ryman name?

More than worthy. You're wonderful.

Oh, I can't wait to see the look on my
father's face when I win tomorrow.

Neither can I.

David!

You promised you were off this stuff.

Yeah, I know, when I finish this thing.

No, David, you promised.

- Why don't you just lay off?
- Give them to me.

Get out of here. Leave me alone.

I'm not gonna let you
kill yourself over some contest.

Janet!

Janet! Janet, wait a minute!

All right, ya'll know the rules.

As each door is opened,
the occupant of that room is eliminated.

But please, use your wits,
no heavy machinery.

The builder of the last
remaining barricade is the winner.

Oh, and do remember:

Einstein never won a barricade contest.

Good luck, Geoffrey.

Janet, I tried calling you last night,
but you weren't home.

Yes, I was.
I just didn't know what to say.

But I'm really sorry.

David?

You waiting for an engraved invitation?

Go win your contest.
I'll talk to you later.

Yeah.

- What's the matter? You seem worried.
- You saw him. He's a wreck.

The others started working
on their barricade a week or two ago.

David's devoted
his life to it for months.

- Why?
- To win.

To show his father
he's cut of the Ryman cloth.

- What does the professor think?
- Are you kidding?

He can't see past his own ego.

He has no idea
what he's doing to his own son.

It's no wonder David's taking...

- Taking what?
- Nothing.

Janet...

...is David taking drugs?

It's all the time now.
He's moody, he doesn't eat.

He never sleeps.

He jokes about killing himself.
I can't tell if he's serious.

If you care about him,
you got to deal with it.

It's not just gonna go away.
I've got to talk to him.

No! No, please.
You can't lay this on him now.

Wait a couple of hours until after the
contest, and we'll talk to him. Okay?

All right.

Okay. Geoffrey Kramer starts out
with Aaron Turner's door.

- Aaron, wanna set up the problem?
- I'd love to.

We have 1 2 dead-bolt locks.

Some of the keys you turn this way,

and it locks or unlocks.

Some of the keys you turn this way,

and it locks or unlocks.

All Geoffrey has to do is get
all 1 2 unlocked at the same time.

Try to be a good loser, Geoffy.

Simply, the barricade
presents a possibility

of 4,096 different key combinations.

At least you've got
that much figured out.

Difficult. But not impossible.

All right, next.
David, you get Hillary's door.

Okay. Unlike Aaron,

my barricade works from inside the room.

Have a look, David.

What David sees is a
balance scale holding two vessels.

One filled with a fine French Chablis,

the other with ordinary tap water.

The object is to tip the scale

in either direction, completing the
electrical circuit to unlock the door.

Thank you.

David. Your turn.

Well, mine is a mechanical barricade.

Now, empirical observation,
an analytical mind

and some common sense
should get it open.

How long it'll take?

Well, that's another question.

Oh, it looks like a garage door opener.

Interesting. I'm looking forward
to solving this one myself, Hillary.

But do your best anyway.

Mr Kramer, your turn.

Mr MacGyver. Professor Ryman.

Fellow competitors. Observe.

A time lock,

ticking down to the grand opening
of this room tomorrow morning at 9am.

Hey, the rules say there's got to be
a way in besides using a sledge hammer.

Oh, there is.

One just has
to be bright enough to find it.

All right, you all have the setup.
Four doors, four finalists.

You have your assignments, so...

So let the games begin.

Professor, you know David's
been knocking himself out

to make his barricade
as famous as yours.

Really? Oh, I'm happy to hear that.

It's put a lot of pressure on him.

Pressure, MacGyver,
is what turns coal into diamonds.

All I have to do is find the right
frequency, and you have a winner.

Well, give it a shot, Hillary. Come on.

- Will you plug that in?
- Sure.

I'm afraid young Aaron
is on the wrong track.

From the looks of the equipment they
brought in, I'd say we have a contest.

Trying to run all
4,096 different combinations

at an average of ten seconds per try

would take me more than 1 2 hours.

So using these iron filings
and a magnet,

I'm going to magnetise each lock

and provide a visual reference as
to whether the bolt is open or closed.

This one's closed, as you can see.

- Now it's open.
- Very clever.

Everything between the two poles
of this magnet is magnetised.

Wherever a lock bolt is closed,
the iron filings will stick.

- Two more locked.
- Nice work.

- Now they're open.
- Excellent analysis, Mr Kramer.

Thank you, sir.
I take pride in my creativity.

- Really.
- Modest.

- I think he's got it.
- Give me a hand over here.

- Come on, you can do it.
- Geoffrey's moving along pretty fast...

- Hey, check out David.
- Yeah.

- Great, frequency generator.
- Is that right?

My ears.

Hey, I did it!

All right.

As did I.

Hillary, looks like we finally
have something in common.

- All right, we have our finalists.
- And may the better physicist win.

And we know who that is, don't we?

- How's Geoffrey doing?
- Not even close.

Good.

Hey, everyone,
I built a frequency converter.

He hypes the electric frequency
and the clock goes faster.

- I do believe he's going to win.
- Don't be so sure.

I think I got it.

I found the frequency.

That's great. Not yet.

Very clever, David.

The garage door opener
has nothing to do with it, does it?

Come on, come on, come on.

All right, it's working!

All right, David.

I'm gonna win, I'm gonna win!

Come on, clock. Come on!

5.1 5...

Oh, 6.00. Come on, 6.1 5,

6.30,

6.45... 7.00!

- Look at that, it's gonna work.
- David!

- 7.30...
- I got it!

What?

It's all an illusion.
The door isn't locked at all!

Let's congratulate the winner.

Very well done, Mr Kramer. Well done.

Ten more seconds...

Congratulations, Geoffrey.

Hey, I'm sorry.

David!

You came in second. You did great.
Come on. Get some perspective.

You know, I used to get mad
at my father for not believing in me.

But he's right.

I am a loser.

- Who's gonna buy me a drink?
- Not me!

I will, Geoffrey.

- Will I see you later at the party?
- Yes.

You guys were all good.
All right, Hillary!

Tony!

Excuse me.

Have you seen David?

No, but I would
like to talk to you about him.

I hope he's not staying away because
he lost. That's hardly the Ryman way.

What's that? Staying away? Or losing?

Sir, would you please join me?

There's something going on
with David that you are not aware of.

- Oh, what's that?
- Pressure. Possible burnout.

Every student on this campus
is pushed to his limits, you know that.

Maybe for David it's too much.

Janet says he doesn't sleep.

He overreacts to things,
like this contest.

And professor,
he's taking speed to stay up for things.

Speed?

My son, drugs?

Yes, sir.

David needs help.

No, I'm sorry, MacGyver.

I don't believe that. Not any of it.

No, sir, you don't, do you?

You don't see any of it.

But there's a difference.
Like Geoffrey here.

He handles pressure
in a totally different way.

I heard my name mentioned.

Of course. It's my party.

No, actually, I was just starting
to talk about how you won the contest.

Right.

Well, like I told you,
the door was never locked.

Do you want to tell the professor
how you knew that?

A little luck.

A little ingenuity.

I don't think so.

I don't have to tell you anything.

I think you do.

Mr Kramer... we're talking
about physics here, not a game show.

Now I think you will tell me,
specifically,

what line of scientific inquiry
led you to your result?

Hey! You all saw it.

The door was open,
it was an optical illusion.

- He used that periscope.
- That's right, he did.

That's exactly what he did.

But you had no way of knowing that.

Geoffrey, you opened the door,
but you never looked inside.

You never saw a periscope.
At least not this afternoon.

David won the Barricade Contest,
didn't he?

Mr Kramer?

We'll go and find my son.

I told you all that hard work
was going to pay off. He won.

He couldn't do that on drugs.

Professor, you're not hearing me.

David needs help.

He is a kid who's begging you to listen.

Nonsense, MacGyver.

Pressure turns coal into diamonds?

- Well, that's a physical fact.
- It can also crush it to dust.

- In this part...
- Thank God!

I was just coming to get you. Hurry.

David's on the phone.

He's barricaded himself
in the physics lab. David?

Your father and MacGyver
are here. They want to talk to you.

Oh, no, no, no.

What's happening, David?

- David.
- Hey, Dad.

We're gonna make history over this one.

Ryman and son. Ryman and son.

Ryman and son. Yeah!

David, you won the Barricade Contest.

Oh, Barricade Contest, hell!

I built the barricade
to end all barricades.

- David...
- The whole physics lab...

I've got it wired.

I even outdid you, Dad.

I built a bomb.

So how about it, Professor Ryman?

Think we'll get famous over this?

Oh, it's the ultimate, huh?

David, what do you say
you lighten up a little bit?

How about if I come over
and we talk about it?

Oh, will you bring a six-pack?

Oh, you know me.
Carrot juice is about as heavy as I get.

What do you say?

No go, MacGyver.

This lab is for Rymans only.

- Rymans only.
- I'll be there in five minutes.

Please stop the foolishness.

What does he mean, he's wired the lab?

It's that whole thing with his father.
The great original barricade.

It won't be easy to get in there.

Do you think this
bomb thing is for real?

Only one way to find out.

Listen, I'm finally gonna make a big
mark on this campus, Professor Ryman.

- All over the campus.
- David.

David, not "professor."

Please, David, I'm your father.

Since when?

I'm going over there. I want you
two to keep him talking. Keep him busy.

- I'm going with you.
- So now he's got your attention?

- What? Are you saying this is my fault?
- You're the one with the Nobel Prize.

- You figure it out.
- Yeah, you tell him!

All right, that's enough.

We've got to calm him down,
I want you to keep him talking.

Well, it's time for the lesser
of the Ryman clan to sign off.

Or should I say, sign out?

David? Can we talk about this?

T alk, talk, talk.

How come all of a sudden
everyone wants to talk?

You know,
if he really has built a bomb,

this whole campus is in danger.

- Why? What do you mean?
- Plutonium.

Nuclear physics
is in the lab above mine.

David, it doesn't have to be like this.

It's too late.

No time.

What's he done? David?

David!

Good evening, Professor Ryman.

- Are you all right?
- Oh, yes, I think so.

See what happens
when you try and get too close?

You get hurt.

Janet, I got to go.

If you hear a loud bang,
it was just me saying goodbye.

David?

David, wait. Talk to me!

David, pick up the phone!

Oh, he's wired a motion detector
to some high-voltage power source.

If we get too close...

-...we're toast.
- Ingenious. Damn it.

We have to blindside
that detector somehow.

Keep him busy.

David.

David, we have to talk.

Oh, you want to talk?

That's a joke. Talk about what?

Anything you say.

Okay.

How about the swim meet
you never showed up at?

What about the Christmas presents Mom
used to buy me and sign your name to?

- I was busy.
- Oh, yeah, right. Busy.

When's my birthday?

- What do you mean?
- I mean, when's my birthday?

It's in May.

Your birthday's in May.

When in May? Yours is March 1 1.

When's my birthday?

You don't know, do you?

The 24th of May.

June six.

You lose.

David, David...

If that bomb is detonated,
it's going to injure

more than just you and me.

Knock, knock, who's there?
Ryman and son.

Professor Ryman and Professor Son.

David! There is plutonium
in the lab directly above this one.

If you have a bomb, you could
contaminate the entire campus...

The whole area!

Plutonium?

- You're lying.
- No, it's the truth.

David, let us in.

David, what about the other people?

What about Janet?

Janet...

Janet...

Hold it! I've got a way in.

- What?
- Acetic acid and ammonia.

Oh, very good.

Mix the gases, make a smoke screen
and blind the detector.

Go!

David!

- He's still got a strong pulse.
- Well, let's get him out of here.

Oh, wow.

You got an A on this lab project, David.

- You still there?
- What's happening?

Janet, I want you to call security.
Have them evacuate the entire campus.

If this thing goes,
the nuclear physics lab goes with it.

- Do it now, Janet.
- Oh, God.

MacGyver! He's coming around.

- Call the bomb squad.
- There's no time.

We're the bomb squad.

David... Sit up, son.

Sit up. Oh, God.

I'm sorry, son.

There's got to be a litre
of nitroglycerine in here.

MacGyver, just get David out of here.
I'll take care of the bomb.

Trust me, professor, there's no time.

It's gonna take two of us to do this.

I'm gonna need some tools,

flat-head screwdriver
and needle-nose pliers.

I've got that kind of stuff here.

In my desk.

- Forgive me, I'm a little nervous.
- I'd be worried if you weren't.

- Wire cutters.
- No, he's built a collapsing circuit.

Cut a wire and she blows.

- How's he triggered it?
- That's a mercury switch.

That glob of mercury touches
any of the exposed wires...

...the bomb goes off.

Yeah. The timer is set
to tilt the dish with the mercury.

Four and a half minutes.

Yeah, we've got to get inside
and stop that timer.

Wait a minute, stop!

He's got the screws wired.

No way to disarm this bomb.

We're going
to have to contain the blast.

That's the only way we're
gonna save the nuclear physics lab.

Contain?

The elevator.
Get it to the sub-basement.

How do you move it
with a mercury switch?

Sir, you once said,
"There's no problem without a solution."

Liquid nitrogen.

- Freeze the mercury! It's worth a try.
- I'll get the elevator.

No good. No good, it won't freeze.

- That mercury's too far down in there.
- We've got to get it to the elevator.

MacGyver, it's over 20 yards.

David.

David! How do we disarm the bomb?

Can't. Got to get out...

Professor, we've got to move it.

- How?
- Very carefully.

Give me a hand here.

- There's got to be a better way.
- If you come up with it, let me know.

Ready?

Easy, professor.

A minute fifteen.

Watch it here.

- No! No!
- Oh, God!

Fifty-five seconds.
We've got to defuse it.

I can't begin to think
under this pressure.

Pressure! That's it!

- What?
- Gas pressure.

If I can heat that switch,

I can bust it wide open.

I'm not sure I understand.

We need to get these wires
between the panels. Pry open the lid.

If I can get these wires hot enough,
it'll cook the mercury.

And heat it to a gaseous state!
Of course.

Twenty seconds...

Come on.

You're gonna be all right, David.

- The bomb...
- The bomb squad's taken care of it.

- Dad, I'm sorry.
- David, please.

- Don't talk. Be quiet.
- Let's go.

David!

He's gonna be all right.

But it's gonna take time.

Oh, I'll make the time.

Oh, MacGyver...

...thank you.
