Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • When MacGyver discovers Booker's body, he backs away with a horrified look on his face. He slams backwards into a wall behind him. Then, MacGyver runs out of the room and runs into another wall and buries his face into his elbow as he screams, "NO!". He then backs quickly into a third wall, looks up, and sniffles. He's crying, which is unusual for MacGyver. Then, he turns around and punches his fist through the wall while saying, "Oh, why?" This can be extremely emotional and hard to take for younger viewers.
  • When MacGyver confronts Larson, it might be frightening and hard to take for younger viewers. MacGyver is clearly grief-stricken by Booker's murder as he repeatedly punches Larson in the face. He proceeds to disarm Larson. As MacGyver's about to punch Larson again with a fiery roar and the gun in hand, Ray and the detective stop him. After Larson is taken away, Ray and MacGyver hug out of grief over Booker's death.
