s01e10 Target MacGyver

Opening gambit - The General: MacGyver rescues a lady general at a beachhouse, then nabs her kidnappers using common kitchen equipment. After blowing away a nuclear facility under the control of an aggressive world leader, MacGyver returns home for some peace and quiet... only to find his boss waiting for him. He advises MacGyver that a contract is out on his life and he needs to skip town for awhile. After all, Axminister (the hired assassin) once blew up a syngogue for one man... killing many others in the process. MacGyver refuses to be guarded by the government, so he insists on visiting someone he hasn't talked to in years... his grandfather. Axminister taps into MacGyver's phone line and learns he's on his way to his grandfather's house. He immediately follows. MacGyver and Harry (his grandpa) don't have a whole lot of time to catch up on old times before Axminister shows up. MacGyver is first alerted to his prescence while fishing with Harry. A pursuit ensues and MacGyver, with Harry's help, constructs a blow gun to tranquilize two of Axminister's followers. MacGyver and Harry then go into hiding for the night. In the morning, the two hurriedly prepare defenses at the abandoned ghost town they came to the day before. One by one, Axminister's men are knocked unconscious. At the end of the episode, Axminister gets his chance to kill MacGyver. However, he waits a second too long, as Harry distracts him. While Harry is doing that, MacGyver must figure out a way to take out Axminister. Can he do it before Axminister gets another chance at him...
