He ran out of the church on foot, and MacGyver manages to get to the cannery at the same time as him, even though Mac went home to call Pete and look up the phone number. If Jimmy hitchhiked to the cannery, that explains why he tries to hide his family instead of running.

So far Season 3 certainly does seem to be darker than the pervious two.Svenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03623528205533251641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5788875373841955612.post-18712185642499822962019-03-03T14:27:15.110-06:002019-03-03T14:27:15.110-06:00I liked this episode because it showcased Macgyver...I liked this episode because it showcased Macgyver as a badass.

This episode always struck me as pretty intense and suspenseful as a boy, particularly compared to the lighter-hearted "The Eraser". And even though it featured two of the most hapless wiseguys in mob history, I was into this one from the get-go, with the highlight being Jimmy's coded language to his "priest" leading to the passing of a gun through the church confessional window. Jimmy's grandson was a pretty bad actor, but the scenes with him were still pretty good, and everything that happened at the canning factory was pretty intense. I narrowly rated "The Eraser" better than this one but the gap has narrowed with subsequent viewings. I ranked this one #75.Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04953380288384883179noreply@blogger.com
