Ep 9. Ten Percent Solution

MacGyver season 5 episode 9, titled "Ten Percent Solution," follows the adventures of the titular character as he takes on yet another dangerous mission. In this episode, MacGyver is tasked with preventing a terrorist group from acquiring the necessary components to build a dirty bomb.

The story begins with MacGyver and his team receiving intel about an impending terrorist attack. The group behind the attack is known for its use of unconventional weapons, and this time they are planning to build a dirty bomb. MacGyver and his team must act quickly to prevent the group from acquiring the necessary materials, including uranium, which they plan to use as a fuel source for the bomb.

As usual, MacGyver uses his ingenuity and quick thinking to come up with a plan. He starts by infiltrating the group and gaining their trust. This involves him posing as a buyer who is interested in purchasing some uranium. Despite the group's suspicion, MacGyver is eventually able to convince them that he is legit and earns their confidence.

With the terrorist group now believing that MacGyver is on their side, he is given access to the materials he needs to build a dummy bomb that will cause minimal destruction. MacGyver's goal is to convince the group that they have successfully built the bomb and that they don't need to acquire any more materials.

However, things don't go according to plan. MacGyver and his team are forced to improvise when the terrorist group discovers that they are being tricked. What follows is a tense game of cat and mouse that sees MacGyver using every trick in his book to stay one step ahead of the terrorists.

The episode is filled with plenty of action sequences, as well as clever moments of MacGyver using everyday objects to come up with makeshift weapons and tools. It's also filled with tense moments, as the team races against time to prevent the terrorist attack from taking place.

Overall, "Ten Percent Solution" is a thrilling episode that showcases MacGyver's ingenuity and resourcefulness. It's a great addition to the already impressive fifth season of the popular show.
