- MacGyver's friend Penny Parker gets the lead part in a new musical. MacGyver suspects it may be a set up by his arch-nemesis to trap him.
- Penny Parker calls Mac with the happy news that she has been cast as the lead in a new musical "Cleo Rocks". She invites him to a rehearsal so that she can share her excitement with him. At the theater, she emerges from a sarcophagus suggestively dressed as Cleopatra. Just as the big production number is ending, there is a ball of sparks on a large electric sign with the show's name. As the support wire breaks, the sign swings down where it will hit Penny. Mac manages to dive at her and knock her out of the way. Mac is suspicious of the sign's cable failure. The next day, Penny gets a surprise delivery of flowers. But it is dead roses with a note that says, "To your Future". Following that, a menacing figure follows Penny down the hall until she can duck into the costume room. When Mac arrives, they find a note pinned to a fitting dummy with a knife and stage blood. Now she's really spooked. Perhaps the theater owner, Mr. Wintergreen, is behind it. He is vocal about his displeasure at how little an amateur in the starring role will help box office draw. But then, Mac notices that the first letter of each line on the costume dummy note spell out Murdoc. Clearly, he was not killed when he fell from the Windowmaker cliff. He has disguised himself as the musical's wheelchair-bound director. Murdoc manages to get Pete to come to the theater where he uses a voice disguise to draw Pete into a trap. He is placed in a cage above a deep pool with burning fountains of natural gas. Then Murdoc captures Penny and ties her up. He lures Mac into another trap with his voice mimicking, a room with a hydraulic floor. He has it set so that Mac opening the door will plunge Pete into the pool still inside the cage. Mac uses his trusty Swiss army knife and a shoestring to fish for the release cable. He manages to lift it off the actuation lever just as the room's floor is about to squish him into the ceiling. Penny manages to kick Murdoc's pistol away at the last minute from her binding ropes. Mac and Murdoc become entangled in a fight to the death. Mac finally achieves the upper hand and knock Murdoc into the pool. He sinks out of sight. When the pool is drained, there is no body.—Garon Smith
