Jack Dalton is on the quest for his long-lost mother, who is on the run from the law and a crooked businessman (long-time familiar face Ed Nelson). And MacGyver is roped in to help.
I don't care for touchy-feely stuff especially when I'm watching what's supposed to be an action/adventure show. At least they don't try slipping in environmentalist polemics. They should remember the words of Samuel Goldwyn: if you want to send a message, try Western Union. But I'm sure the writers don't know much about Hollywood history, which is why so many episodes are full of clichés. Like crooked businessmen. How about crooked environmentalists for a change?
The best thing about this episode is the introduction of Jesse Colton, who shows MacGyver how useful a firearm can be.
Colton is a bounty-hunter with a heart of gold and a head of pure bone, who has dreams of retiring to Hawaii (he even listens to Hawaiian music in his car).
I enjoy every episode featuring the Coltons. Jesse Colton is a break from the usual clichés. I'm glad they injected humor into the proceedings. The phone booth moment is classic MacGyver. Don't know what a phone booth is? It was what Superman used to use as a changing-room.
