Yep.

"D'you boys want to talk about this?"

Wrong answer and the fight errupts between Mac and four construction workers in The Wasteland.

Exact-a-mundo!

'Hang on! Come on, friend, hang on!'

hmm- Pete to MacGyver in "Passages"?

Correct.

"Oh, please understand- you were the only person I could turn to."

Was that Eric Woodman to MacGyver in Hearts of Steel?

Well... I suppose he may have said something like that (it's been a while since I've seen the "Hearts of Steel" episode)- but that's not what I was thinking of.

Amy in Flames End?

No, that's not it either.
(Hmm- I suppose this may have been a phrase uttered a couple of times throughout the show- but there's one main scene I remember hearing it in.)

Macyvers old girlfriend in Lost Love

Nope- that's still not it either (though offhand, I do think Lisa maybe says something similar- but not the one I'm looking for.)

Do you want to give a hint?

Um- okay... let's see- it is a phrase said to MacGyver. Perhaps MacGyver's reply will give it away, but if it helps here's MacGyver's answer muttered under his breath- (which cracks me up)

"Story of my life."

I know, I know!!!! It's MacGyver's college professor (Atticus?) to Mac in The Lost Treasure of Atlantis.

I can't help myself but to laugh everytime I see that scene!

Murdoc to MacGyver in Halloween Knights

All right! tant14 finally got it! Good job! (Sorry if that one was a bit tougher- I realize not everyone may necessarily have access to the TV-movies- yet.)

maybe we should make a restriction that phrases can only be from episodes. That way every thing's fair and square.

I don't see the good in that. 90 % we come up with are from the series anyway. Of course indeed movie phrases are more for the more advanced viewer of the show.

Hmm- well, I consider all of the TV series and the TV-movies all part of MacGyver- so I figured that phrase might be a bit more challenging. But either just episodes or episodes and TV-movies, I'm fine with either way- it's all good.

I don't think the problem is that the movies are too obscure, but rather, if the phrase is something common that was used multiple times, more context should be provided.

"That's not the one I was thinking of" might work for a telepathy contest, of course. I'll let someone else start that contest thread.

Hmm- I didn't remember that particular phrase (or something close to it) being used so many times throughout the show. If I think a situation like that's going to come up again, next time I think I'll just give the phrase and the reply- or something like that to clue everyone in. But you don't want to get too specific- as half the fun is trying to guess where it came from (if you don't already know right off the bat)

Okay...my turn!

"You fly-by-night dictators are all the same."

'I am not a fly-by-night dictator. You pion!'

Love that interaction between MacGyver and Peugeot in Honest Abe.

'It's probably not easy to say that. But it's a good start. Admitting it. A real good start.'

Hello?

Um- MacGyver and Lisa Woodman in "Twenty Questions"?

Correct.

"Maybe it's time he fixed himself."
