I just watched this episode again. It was always one of my favorites of the first season. It's so different of all the other episodes. This episode shows that there doesn't always have to be bad guys and guns to spice things up. Explosions will do just fine. Now I think it's rather a shame they didn't make more of this kind of episodes. Mac vs. the elements of nature or something. I know he rather preserves nature than to battle it but you known battling it to preserve it. I also really like this episode because of it's ending. When they are actually hellfighting. Mac and Bill are on the jeep trying to get the explosives into the well, Laura is spraying them with the hose and Torgut is cranking the water. There's a lot of noise, the fire is blazing and the background music is over it. It's a very loud scene and than when the final explosion hits total silence. Than you know they succeeded in battling the fire.
I think the poison that was used was applied to this knife, passed to the mutton when it was cut and then activated by the wine. - MacGyver. Sometimes you just have to die a little inside to be reborn and rise again as a stronger and wiser version of you. It's better to be a little sad than to be fake content.
