Untold Opening Gambits! Mac vs Roe vs Wade........

This week in "Unused Opening Gambits", we have a tale of heroism meets unlicensed medicine.



MACGYVER VS ROE VS WADE Fade in
Ext. STREET corner location Thailand 
MacGyver walking down street carrying hockey bag and hockey stick. Voice over "Finally some r&r with a little hockey in my favorite little quiet city, Bangkok, Thailand. This reminds of my uncle Olaf's RV park he owned" Off screen voices of man and woman arguing. 
Man: "No money no procedure for you." 

Door slams, a woman sobs. MacGyver walks down alley

MacGyver: "Something wrong miss?" Woman: "Doctor no do procedure for me."
Macgyver: "what kind of procedure?" Woman points to stomach
Woman: "Need growing seed removed." MacGyver: "I think I have a few things in my hockey bag that might help you out." Mac starts going through his bag Voice over: "This reminds of a problem old man McGinty had with one of his daughters. Let's just say he enjoyed a little too much Baltic tea and had the habit for looking towards one of his six daughters to satisfy his carnal desires." MacGyver pulls out a Calgary flames jersey, a road flare, vinegar, baking soda, a magnet, and a hangar. Woman: "Mister..... What is all that stuff for?" MacGyver: "Well I haven't performed a back alley abortion since my summers at old man McGinty's ranch but I think I can make do with what I have here I think. Oh and the name is MacGyver." (Smiles) Woman: "I guess I have no choice I have to be at tennis shoe factory in next two hours to work. Let's do this MacGyver." MacGyver: "I'd ask what your name is but there's a 90% chance you'll bleed out so why get attached. Now let me see if I have everything....ah! (goes over to garbage bags) Just need something for a numbing agent." (picks up scorpion by stabbing it with his Swiss Army knife and rubbing the stinger on the hangar) Woman: "I'm ready when you are, MacGyver." MacGyver: I haven't been called that since 'Nam. Woman: "You look like man who burned my village and killed water buffalo by exploding it with rice alcohol and magnifying glass." MacGyver: "Yep, that was me." Woman lays down on Calgary flames jersey. MacGyver: "Just need to make a smoke screen so we don't get disturbed" ( mixes vinegar and baking soda together creates a smoke screen) Voice over: "I remember old man McGinty sobbing uncontrollably in his stable as I began working on his daughter. It still haunts me to this day." MacGyver sets down a bloody hanger on the side. MacGyver: "Now for the magnet to do the trick hopefully I was able to magnetize the fetus with the hangar there we go. got the little sucker. Now to stop the bleeding." (sets off road flare) Woman: "Even though you burn down my village, and force me into terrible life of prostitution, you have my deepest thanks, MacGyver." (She then falls into a coma.) MacGyver then picks up his hockey stick and shoots aborted fetus into Dumpster with a wicked slapshot.

MacGyver: "Looks like I've got to build a make-shift life support device from coconuts and wicker baskets..."


(MacGyver picks the woman up and takes her back to his hotel room.)


I hope you enjoyed this week's Untold Opening Gambit!

WacGyver Episode 7: Last Stand

The wait is over!  The 6 of you out there giving this show a regular listen can sigh in relief, because the latest episode is live now.

In this episode we find out that MacGyver, being the savvy mastermind he is, can't figure out if he has to go right or left to visit his childhood fishing hole.  Going the wrong way causes him to come across an airport hostage situation that defies all logic.

Enjoy!

(Update: The link is fixed.  Sorry!)

WacGyver weekly update

We recorded episode 7 last weekend, and it was hilarious.

We see Mac keep his cool in a hostage crisis, a Tommy Chong look-a-like with an M16, and Jackie Earl Haley as a bored criminal.

This episode feature your regular hosts, Tim and Chris, with Tim Rowell and Greg Lucas bringing some insight to a very violent and rapey episode of MacGyver.

Don't forget to check us out on Twitter and Facebook.

Thank you for your patience, we'll have this up tomorrow!


Mac can really work those two fingers!

No new episode this week, but we are going to try to record 2 this weekend to have one up at some point during next week.

Instead, we will be putting episode two up on the new site and working on our MacGyver fan-fiction.  We'll have some of that later in the week.

Thanks to all six of you that have visited the blog so far, we do this for you!
