MacGyver spoilers: First details on Murdoc’s return!
For this article, we’re going to focus more on the April 7 episode entitled “Hole Puncher,” which is going to have MacGyver trying to do his best Murdoc impression! The Phoenix Foundation team will intercept a message from a terror group that was meant for Murdoc, and they will use that information in order to figure out exactly who this group wants him to assassinate. This is a tricky mission, mostly because of the fact that impersonating someone this notorious is no easy task. If you do the wrong thing, then you run the risk immediately that you get killed. Then, there is also the fear that you screw something up so badly that Murdoc finds out about it…
You had to assume that eventually, you were going to see Murdoc become a part of the story again in one way or another. Still, having him come back in this way should prove exciting just because having MacGyver try to impersonate the villain is something that’s a little bit different than what you tend to see on crime dramas with a notable Big Bad.
As for the finale … let’s just say that this is the sort of show where things don’t get any easier for the heroes. Things are only going to get harder for them moving into the finale, and it’s safe to say that Murdoc will be evolved in that somehow.
Is it possible that we get a cliffhanger moving into season 2? Given that the writers had to be feeling good about their renewal chances at the time they were getting the story together we feel that it’s likely. (The show was officially renewed earlier in the week!)
