MacGyver’s poisoned by spies and seeks help from runaway Lisa Allen [SPECIAL GUEST: Tammy Lauren!]

MISSION: Enemy agents inject MacGyver with a deadly serum and withhold the antidote until he returns sensitive military information he has stolen. He has six hours to get word to DXS where the information is hidden and to get the antidote before the toxin becomes incurable. Luckily, he happens upon the assistance of runaway Lisa Allen.

This week’s highlights include:

This week, special guest Tammy Lauren (Alexandra Amberson from Wishmaster, Detective Maggie Sullivan from The Young and the Restless), puts in a call to the Foundation, Urgent 101! She tells us about her early career joking around with Robin Williams as a kid, and getting teased on the MacGyver set by Mr. Dean Anderson himself.

The S.S. Lane Victory’s film credits can be found here! (Featuring two Tammy Lauren projects and one Patrick O’Riley project.)

Magnetostriction (Physics)

The alignment of magnetic domains determines the strength and polarity of a given magnet. This magnetism can be amplified and altered in several ways, for example: banging a pole against a fire hydrant while pointing it exactly magnetic north.
