Plot

MacGyver is tasked to go undercover as an inmate in a maximum security prison to break out El Noche, a notorious drug kingpin, using only batteries and salt, and track him to his cartel's secret location and dismantle it.

Thornton tells the team, they need to get a drug kingpin out of prison because while incarcerated, his lieutenants are running wild and need to be stopped. And the kingpin is the only one who knows where they are. So Mac goes in as a convict and Jack , a guard.—rcs0411@yahoo.com

The Phoenix Foundation fears the incarceration of Mexican drug cartel lord El Noche only causes his lieutenants out of control to turn it even more violent. So Mac must go undercover as his cellmate to help him escape hoping to be taken along to his secret lair. Coached by ex-con Riley, Mac proves himself tough enough and wins El Noche's confidence. Although undercover jailer Jack is unable to supply material, Mac pulls off a brilliant escape. However outside, El Noche has henchmen waiting to capture him, suspicious he who refused to harm prison staff must be planted by a rival and orders his toxic variation of waterboarding.—KGF Vissers
