MacGyver (2016) season 2 episode 3 titled "Roulette Wheel + Wire" follows Angus "Mac" MacGyver and his team as they embark on a mission to free a captured American spy in Venezuela.

The episode begins with MacGyver and Jack Dalton disguised as tourists in a casino in Caracas, Venezuela. Their objective is to locate the imprisoned informant, Alfredo Barrios, who has vital information about a secret uranium mine in the country. Their mission is made difficult by the fact that the interior of the casino is a maze of hidden rooms and passages.

As Mac and Jack make their way through the casino, they come across a young pickpocket named Santiago who offers to help them for a cut of the reward money promised by the CIA. While they initially refuse his help, they eventually change their minds and Santiago guides them through the maze of passages. Along the way, they come across a group of gunmen who are also searching for Barrios.

The team manages to evade the gunmen and locate Barrios, but find that he is being held in an impenetrable safe. Not one to give up easily, Mac uses his ingenuity and knowledge of science to come up with a plan to crack the safe. Using a roulette wheel and some electrical wire, he is able to create a makeshift explosive device that manages to break open the safe.

However, their troubles are far from over as they are then ambushed by the gunmen who have caught up with them. A tense shootout ensues, during which MacGyver is injured. With little time to waste, they come up with another plan to use Santiago's expertise as a pickpocket to steal the gunmen's weapons and escape. With Santiago's help, they manage to get away and smuggle Barrios out of the country.

The episode features the usual combination of action, suspense, and MacGyver's trademark ingenuity and resourcefulness. It also introduces a new character in Santiago, who adds a touch of humor and street smarts to the team. Above all, "Roulette Wheel + Wire" is about the importance of teamwork and adapting to unexpected challenges in order to achieve the mission's objective.
