Tell him to forget|the ludlum deal, sell all the stocks|in my portfolio.
I'm gonna need all the cash|i can get my hands on.
Mr.
Woodman,|when word gets out|on the exchange you've liquidated your assets, the brokers could read thi|s as a panic move.
They'd be like sharks|in a feeding frenzy.
You could lose everything.
I don't care.
Get charlie on it now.
Macgyver,|thanks for coming.
|Hi, eric.
You heard|from the kidnappers? Nothing so far.
|Come in.
Come in.
You got any idea|who these guys are no.
All i have|is this note.
My success is no secret,|though.
It could be anyone you call the police yet? No, the note says|they'll kill her if i do.
That's why i called you.
After the way|you handled yourself in switzerland with lisa,|i knew i could|trust you to help.
I'll pay you, of course,|whatever it takes.
|Name your price.
Eric, this isn't about money,|it's about lisa's life.
You have to call the police.
But they said|no, it doesn't matter.
|You call them.
Ask for lt.
Rhome.
All right.
|Whatever you say.
Mr.
Macgyver.
My ingrid would have|called by now|if she was all right.
I'm so frightened.

Bronson and fairdale? We're online.
|It's working perfectly thanks, vinnie.
Dad? Where are you?|Dad? Lisa! Lisa!|Daddy! They took ingrid.
but they locked me|in a supply room.
Slow down now.
Easy here.
|Everything's gonna be fine.
Macgyver.
Hi, baby.
What are you doing here? Well,|i'm worrying about you|, like everybody else.
Oh, lisa! Oh, thank god you are safe! And where is ingrid? The 2 men,|i tried to stop them but, they sent your jacket|to your father.
Ingrid was wearing it.
Oh, no! No.
This can't be true.
They can't have my ingrid.
Greta, we'll get her back.
Um, lisa? I'm lt.
Rhome.
Do you think you can describe|the men who took her? Yeah, sure.
I really only got a good look|at the one who grabbed me.
He was tall,|dark curly hair.
Age? Height? I'd say in his 30s,|i guess.
Not as tall as macgyver.
Rough hands,|like he probably worke|d with them a lot.
Hands, fingerprints! What fingerprints? He left a big|greasy thumbprint|on ingrid's sunglasses well, i'll be way to go, sherlock.
Macgyver, is phoenix|still developing that computer-imaging system? The face-finder? You bet.
Maybe you could|run lisa down there, and see if you can|come up with a composite|of this guy.
Will do.
Mr.
Woodman.
Now, mr.
Woodman, listen.
They may not know|they've got the wrong girl, so tell them whatever|they want to hear, and keep them on the line.
All right.
|Now, hold it|just a second.
Hello, eric woodman.
$3 million, woodman.
In cash.
Or your little girl won't live|to see her next birthday.
All right.
$3 million,|whatever you say.
Where and when? Leave the money|at the flagpole|in observation park.
Midnight.
And you better be|on time, woodman, or the deal is off|.
understand? You will bring lisa? She'll be there.
Unless you do|something stupid and bring the police.
Uh, why are you doing this wait wait a minute.
|How can i be sure|she's still all right? Damn! Not enough time.
They don't know|they've got the wrong girl.
No.
|But we'll get her back.
You are gonna pay them,|aren't you, daddy? Lisa.
Honey, i'm afraid that's not|up to you or me to decide.
But ingrid's|my best friend|in the entire world.
Look, this whole matte|r is out of my hands.
You just don't understand.
That's right.
What do i know? I'm only a kid.
|Who cares if|my best friend's gonna die.
Oh, now, lisa,|don't even say such a thing.
Mr.
Woodman, i know this is a great dea|l of money, i, i couldn't even dream|of repaying you, but, my ingrid, she's all i have.
Well, we've just|got to be realistic here,|greta.
The police know|how to handle|this sort of thing.
Are you going to|give them the $3 million? Uh, no, sweetheart|, we don't have thos|e kinds of resources we'll just have to|handle it another way.
But something could|go wrong, couldn't it? There, you see?|Something could go wrong.
But what do you care? You just say,|"oh, my gosh, we're sorry," and go home like it's|a bad day at the office.
That does it, young lady.
|You go up to your room.
I hate my room! I hate this house,|and i especially hate|all your precious money! She's upset, but she'll be all right.
Yeah.
I'll take her down to the lab,|we'll get to work|on the composite.
Good.
What are the girl's chances? Well, right now,|that's up to the kidnappers.
No, they weren't|like that.
Keep trying, ok? How about those? They were|smaller, squintier sort of like this.
No, no, no,|not that round just a little smaller.
That's it! Perfecto.
All right,|let's try the mouths.
No, not that big.
This guy's lips were|really close together, sort of thin.
Mean.
No lips, like mr.
Krillman.
Who? My piano teacher.
|Never mind.
I'll stop you|when i see it.
No, they were smaller.
No, we're talking|real small.
There, that's it!|Right there.
That's him,|that's the guy this is so cool.
|We did it, macgyver.
I'm gonna post his picture|all over school|and all around the mall.
I mean, maybe somebody|will recognize him|and help us out.
Ok, let's get it printed out|and over to the police, huh? This thing's great|, macgyver.
Yeah, well, there are just|so many combinations of features in the world, like the shape of your face.
It's just like your dad's.
I'd rather you didn't|compare me to him,|thank you very much.
Come on, lisa,|he's not such a bad guy.
We all get our|priorities messed up|once in a while.
How can you defend him all he thinks about|is good old t.
c.
b.
Hmm?|Taking care of business.
He doesn't care|what happens to ingrid no? Then why is he|risking his neck going|to that park at midnight to get her back, huh? He'll do anything so long as|it doesn't cost him any|of his precious money.
I just have a bad feeling|this isn't gonna work out.
Do you remember|when we escaped from that boathouse|in switzerland? That wasn't supposed|to work out either.
But it did.
Darn you, macgyver.
I just hate the way|you talk me into everything.
Woodman give you|any static? Are you kidding? He sings a different tune|when he's on|the receiving end.
Well, sweetheart, if everything goes right, you'll be home|with your precious daddy|by midnight.
What the devil! This is not lisa woodman! Who are you? My name is ingrid.
|Ingrid colberg.
Don't hurt me,|please, don't hurt me.
No.
Nobody's gonna get hurt.
What happened? There was 2 of 'em you said to take the one|with the purple|leather jacket.
You got the wrong girl! They must have|switched jackets.
Now what did you do|with the woodman girl? We left her|locked up in the mall.
Damn it! She's probably|been found by now.
Woodman's got to be|stringing us along, just like he did|when he closed|the place down on us.
Yeah, so,|what do we do with this one? The same thing you do|when you catch|the wrong fish.
You use it for bait.
Now, mr.
Woodman,|after you make the drop, all of my units|will hold position until i give go orders|from the command post.
|All right? Now, we already|have men stationed here, here,|and here.
And as soon as|ingrid is safe, i'll give the order|to seal the entire area.
We'll be watching you|from this overlook|right there.
If you spot|anything suspicious,|just whisper.
We'll hear|everything you say.
We ready?|Yep.
Ross, lubash, stay here|and keep an eye on the house.
Let's move out mr.
Macgyver, i pray to god that|you will bring|my ingrid home, alive and well.
We'll do everythin|g we can.
We promise daddy, about what i said before.
I'm sorry.
I know, sweetheart.
Be careful, ok? Both of you.
There's a note.
What should i do? Get it and read it to us.
All it says is observatory.
All units|secure the perimeter.
Stay here.
|Watch the duffle bag.
Ingrid.
Ingrid, i'm a friend, ok? All right,|you're gonna be ok ingrid! Oh, mr.
Woodman,|i was so scared.
They said|to tell you something.
They said to tell you that they have|the leverage.
The what? It's a market term.
|It means they're in control.
Lisa.
What's recall number|for his house? Let's get back there.
Lisa! Are you all right?|Yeah, i'm ok.
Lisa, answer me! Lisa, where are you? Lisa! Ross! Are you ok? In here! Mom! Oh, ingrid, my baby.
Lisa! Where is lisa? They took her.
No.
No.
Oh, god! No.
Ingrid, i know you're tired, but we're gonna have t|o learn everything we ca|n about these people.
I don't remember anything.
I had on a blindfold.
Ingrid, think! Please.
All right, honey,|i just want you to relax, ok? What we're gonna do is|pretend you're back there.
Now what do you hear? Traffic sounds uh, planes flying over? No.
But i heard trains.
|I heard lots of trains all right, how close? Oh, pretty close.
There are lots of warehouses|down by the tracks.
Ingrid, um,|this place they took you to, did it feel big? Mmm, pretty big.
I remember we had|to go up stairs.
Was there anything special|about the stairs?|Anything different? They were steep and narrow.
And they felt funny|under my feet.
Funny, how?|What, uh, slippery, rough? Gritty, kind of.
Not like gravel, though.
Mind if i look at|one of your shoes? Steel shavings.
Could be from a place|where they grind metal like an ironworks|or scrap yard.
I'll get my people|right on it.
It's from upstairs.
|That's lisa's private line.
Woodman.
Since you obviously have|the police tapped into|your other line, i convinced your little girl|to give us her private number.
You rotten scum!|What have you done|with my daughter? No, you're the scum, woodman! I told you, no police.
But i should have known.
|You never did|play by the rules.
I'm not gonna|promise you anything until i know lisa's all right.
|I want to talk to her now! Ok.
but you remember one thing this may be the last time|you ever talk to her.
Daddy, is that you? Lisa, honey, are you ok? So far, but i'm scared.
Sweetheart,|you'll be all right.
Just try to be calm,|i'm going to do everything|they tell me to do.
The stakes just|went up, woodman.
$5 million in unmarked cash.
And you get ri|d of the police.
Or she's dead.
You understand me? I understand.
Don't hurt her.
Tell me what|you want me to do.
I'll get back to you.
No, tell me now! I want my I wish i'd known|about this phone.
I'll have it rigged|right away.
No.
I'm handling this myself.
I've got to do exactly|what they say.
No police.
Eric, the police are the only ones|who can help you.
Well, then let 'em do it|from somewhere else.
The police station, anywhere.
From now on,|i am doing exactly what|the kidnappers tell me.
Why are you doing this?|Why? You want to know why?|This is why.
This is why.
You see this place? turning out 900 tons|of steel a day.
And it's all gone.
What happened? Your father|is what happened.
he promised he'd|keep the mill open|after he bought us out but he shut us down|with one phone call.
Why would he do that? Because he didn't|give a damn! It's all a numbers game|to sharks like him.
What your father did, we all paid for.
Now he's going to pay.
Easy, watch it i'm getting very|tired of you guys|pushing me around! You shut your mouth, kid! Look, kidnapping me|isn't going to|change anything.
Just let me go.
I'll ask my dad to give|all those jobs back.
|I promise.
A woodman promise|isn't worth the powder it'd take to|blow him to hell.
Mike.
Mike.
You let her see our faces.
She can i.
d.
All of us she won't get the chance.
Wait a minute.
|What are you sayin'? I'm saying it's too late.
All that matters now|is making woodman pay.
And believe me, he is gonna pay.
$3,990,000,|10 makes $4 million.
Bank should have|the other million arranged|for pickup within the hour good.
I just talked|to lt.
Rhome.
The sunglasses and|the composite paid off.
They i.
d.
'd a guy named kirk delaney.
You ever heard of him?|No, never.
Well, he has a record|for assault tied to|a steelworkers' strike about 5 years ago.
You say that as if|it may be significant.
Yeah, well,|steelworkers work|in steel mills.
The metal tracings|i found on ingrid|could be from a steel mill the police are checking that? Yeah, yeah, they are.
But you remember last night? The kidnapper said that well, you never played|by the rules.
And then they gave ingrid that business phrase|that let you know|they had lisa.
You mean about|having leverage.
|What about it? Well, i don't know, it just it sounds like|they're trying to|make it personal.
Is there a chance|we're dealing with someone|you've done business with? How should i know?|I'm i'm always making deals.
Do those deals|sometimes produce enemies? Macgyver,|i'm in a cutthroat business.
That comes with the territory.
Well, does that territory|include steel mills? What about breland steel?|You shut that down last year.
Hmm, that was|a leverage buy-out.
I never even set foot|in the place.
And the chairman of the board|wasn't very happy.
After the shutdown,|i had to have him|physically removed from the plant|a couple of times.
Travers, that's right.
A real hot head.
He was the founder,|but he couldn't see|the writing on the wall.
Breland steel was just a dog|i put out of its misery.
But, i gave everyone|3 months severance.
It was more than fair.
Yeah, well, a man spending|his whole life trying|to build a company might not agree.
It was good business.
Yeah, i'm sure.
Listen,|i'm gonna run out to breland.
You want to call lt.
Rhome,|tell him to meet me there? Sure.
Whatever you say.
Call the bank.
Make sure that other million's|gonna be ready.
You know that|liquidating like this leaves you highly vulnerable|to a takeover? What other choice do i have? Woodman here.
Do you have any idea|who this is, woodman? Should i? Only you could destroy|a man's entire life and never look him|in the eye.
It's mike travers.
Formerly of breland steel.
Now i'm telling you that because your daughter|saw my face, and it may be the last thing|she'll ever see.
Travers.
Don't hurt lisa, please.
I'll have your money|together within the hour,|all $5 million.
Good.
Now i want you|to bring it to the steel mill, so you can see for yoursel|f what you destroyed.
I'll be there.
Alone, woodman.
Or you'll never see|your little girl again mr.
Woodman,|what are you going to do? Exactly what|they told me.
|But what about the police? Forget the police,|i'm going alone.
If travers catches macgyver|poking his nose around there, he's going to|kill my daughter.
Look, molenski and me|agreed to this whole thing to help the men.
This will help the men.
There's no other way now.
Come on, mike, gettin' money|out of woodman's one thing, but you never said anythin|g about killin' anybody.
I know, but we've got|no choice.
How do we know he's not|bringing the cops, huh? Because i've got woodman|running scared.
We're in control now.
I still don't like it.
This is the only way|it's gonna work.
Now, you stay here|and watch the kid.
So why don't you|bring the car around|here to the scrap bay? I'll watch for woodman when we're through with him,|i don't want to hang around.
|Ok.
The guy you knocked down's|got the key! Delaney! Woodman is pulling up|at the gate.
Bring the girl.
Delaney? Do you hear me? Delaney? I don't believe that guy.
Let's go.
|Your father's here.
Come on, kid, now!|I'm coming, don't rush me! Hey, what is this? Get me down from here! What the hell's|going on here? Hey Hey, travers, do something daddy, daddy! Lisa!|Daddy! Stop right there, kid! Or i'll kill you both,|right now.
I swear! Let her go.
I have your money|right here, sir.
Here's $5 million.
Let her go, now.
You think you can|buy anything,|don't you woodman? All i want is|my daughter's life.
Please.
What about the lives|of the 400 families|you destroyed? What are you willing|to pay for those?|Travers, no! Don't do it! Please.
It's not worth it.
It's not gonna|change anything.
I say it is! Then you're gonna|have to kill all of us, and i don't think|you're that kind of man.
That $5 million|is going to the men, Their families those people don't|want blood money.
They want|an honest day's work.
If you go through with this,|there's no way this place is ever|gonna run again.
But if you give up now, there's still a chance|it can be reopened.
Right? Listen to him, daddy.
If all those men|hadn't lost their jobs, none of this|would have happened.
Isn't that right? Well, the place|can be reopened, travers.
L-i'll get my people|on it immediately.
Sure you will.
Is that another|one of those great|woodman promises? You're gonna|have to trust him.
Just like we have to|trust you.
Daddy.
All right,|get them out of here.
Lieutenant, i want|to thank you for everything.
I'm sorry if i got|a little crazy before.
Hey, forget it so, how long|you think it'll take before you get|this place open again? Well, i'm not really sure|if that's possible.
But you promised him|all those men|would get their jobs back.
Sweetheart, i'd have|promised anything|to get you back.
You lied to him! Just like you lied|to him before.
Daddy,|can't you see what that does? You can't just say|anything you want|to make things go your way sounds like|pretty good advice.
All right,|i'll look into it.
Look into it? All right, i'll do it.
Thank you, daddy.
|I love you.
Lisa, i love you, too.
