(carrying unstable dynamite) You ever drop one of these?
Not recently. You?
Well, in Tulsa, Oklahoma, a guy once bet me that I couldn't balance a stick of burning dynamite on my forehead.
Yeah, what happened?
Blew my head off.

(carrying unstable dynamite) You ever drop one of these?
Not recently. You?
Well, in Tulsa, Oklahoma, a guy once bet me that I couldn't balance a stick of burning dynamite on my forehead.
Yeah, what happened?
Blew my head off.
Expecting trouble?
Well, you never can tell. The East Germans are just a little bit hot over this one.
Nice to know my work is appreciated.
You have good veins.
Thank you.
Hey, you're like me. You make do with what you got.
Yeah, I guess I do.
And I thought all secret agents were cold and heartless.
No, Pete and I go way back to some pretty… funny places.
Is that what the camel is about?
[as MacGyver, Karen and Pete are trapped inside the mansion]
Always had to say how great you were, didn't you, Quayle? Afraid maybe people wouldn't notice.
You'll be the last one to die, MacGyver.
That's what I figure too: Of old age, hopefully.
Pick a number between one and ten, quick!
Seven.
Close, but wrong; I go first.
It's not technology, it's… art.
Art?! MacGyver, it's a damn bomb!
You just lack artistic taste.
Hey Pete, don't forget you and I have got a little golf match as soon as this is job is over.
Yeah right, and I'm gonna spot you a stroke a hole, buddy!
Tell me, Mr. MacGyver. Would you want to know that a very good possibility exists that you could die a violent death some time during the next three hours?
Yes, Ma'am, I would.
What is it?
I'll probably be able to tell you that tomorrow - unless you're in a rush.
I'm in a rush.
You're always in a rush. You realize that this is bending the regulations just a little.
Ed, who rebuilt your sound system?
Ah, you have a point. You also have a sample.
[Bannister and Mac are watching Ed perform an autopsy.]
You have to make jokes?
What do you expect? Tap dance? (to Mac) Who's your sensitive flower?
Ed, you've been down here too long.
Did you finish packing, Mr. MacGyver?
Actually, it defeated me completely.
You must learn not to be defeated so easily.
I need someone I can trust to stay on top of it.
You have got a whole file full of people on salary who can do that.
Yes, and any one of them could turn out to be the mole!
I thought we could rely on each other; I thought we were friends.
We are friends, Pete. We're friends, shall be ever more - after my vacation!
