FLASHBACK: MacGyver and his friends Chuck, Neil, and Jesse contemplate how they will raise the money needed to purchase a box of ammunition so that they can have fun shooting a gun belonging to MacGyver's father. When they finally raise the money and get the ammo, the four boys head out into a secret spot in the woods to target shoot with the gun. The boys take turns shooting at bottles, except for Jesse, who refuses and says he just wants to watch. After MacGyver has had his turn, he passes the gun on to his other friends. After a shot at a bottle, ne of them raises the gun to shoot an eagle in the trees. Quick thinking MacGyver rushes toward his friend, knocking the gun out of his hand, sending it flying through the air. When the gun hits the ground, it discharges, shooting Jesse directly in the abdomen. After seeing their friend shot, Neil and Chuck run away, leaving MacGyver to tend to his dying friend. Using his bicycle as well as another left by Neil and Chuck, MacGyver rigs up a trailer-type attachment and secures Jesse on it. MacGyver then gets on his bike and makes a break for the main highway. MacGyver begs for help from the passing motorists until one of them stops and summons emergency assistance. The paramedics arrive, but despite all their best efforts, as well as MacGyver's, Jesse dies right before MacGyver's eyes, forever haunting him about that fateful day that he and his friends chose to play recklessly with firearms. PRESENT: MacGyver heads back to his hometown of Mission City, Minnesota to meet with his friends Chuck, a firearms dealer, and Neil, a police officer, to fulfill a childhood pledge to unbury a time capusle they had buried twenty-five years before. MacGyver is hesitant to unbury the time capusle, haunted by the childhod death of his friend Jesse. He soon finds that his friends Chuck and Neil are also hesitant about returning to the site, but they agree they owe it to Jesse to keep the promise they made so long ago. Meanwhile, unbeknownst to the three men, Chuck's son Danny and Neil's son Sean are wrapped up in drug trouble with a local drug dealer named Spider who is owed two hundred dollars by Danny. After a failed attempt to gun down Danny in front of his fathers shop, he and Sean devise a plan that could eventually get Spider caught red-handed with a new shipment of crack from LA, Sean tells Danny to hide away until the following Tuesday. Before Danny can slip away, MacGyver gets word of what is going to happen and catches Danny taking a gun from his fathers shop. MacGyver, despite his efforts, is unable to keep Danny from running away as planned. MacGyver now knows he must get to Danny before Spider does, knowing the LA drug dealer will stop at nothing to complete his affairs in Mission City. The question is now whether MacGyver can get to Danny before Spider and his sidekick do. Will Danny and Spider shoot it out, or can MacGyver prevent such a confrontation...?
