A recovered Mac gets on the phone with the team and helps them arm and use the weapon, which thwarts all the CODEX soldiers except Scarlett, who escapes.

However, The Merchant figures out the simulation and gets a coded message out to CODEX, who plans to storm the building. After a bloody battle, The Merchant is taken away in a car, but it's revealed his captors are Russ and Bozer. Russ reveals they intercepted CODEX earlier, and the battle The Merchant witnessed was staged. Riley realises that she likes Mac, which Bozer knows about.

Mac vehemently disagrees with a planned missile strike, knowing there are children and innocent people on the CODEX compound after conversations with Gwen. Gwen also revealed that Mac's mother did not die of cancer, but was murdered by the U.S. government. Mac goes rogue, certain that the best way to stop CODEX is to join them and convince them there are other ways to achieve their goal. He takes Scarlett out of custody to help him enter the compound, and they are later joined by Riley. The three obtain Tesla's Shiva weapon on the way, and use it to thwart the incoming missile. Gwen welcomes Mac and Riley into CODEX.

At the CODEX underground compound, Mac meets with Gwen's boss Leland, who claims he once approached Russ. Mac and Riley are then given a transport assignment, and though they are kept in the dark about the group's plans, Mac has deduced they have some kind of nuclear device. Along the way, they are confronted by Russ and Desi at gunpoint. Mac is able to convince them he's still on the side of Phoenix, but the meeting is captured by a CODEX camera. Leland shows the footage to Gwen and states that Mac and Riley will be killed when they get to their fake destination, along with members of Gwen's team. Mac devises a way to save Riley and himself, and later convinces Gwen to accept that they can save the world together without destroying a billion or more lives. Mac figures out that the nuke will be used to trigger the massive volcano that rests under Yellowstone National Park by blowing up a dam and forcing water down a thousand-mile passage that was drilled. He concludes that they can't keep the bomb from exploding, but he can disable the nuclear reaction. Unfortunately, his timing device is destroyed in a scuffle with CODEX soldier Roman, after which Gwen arrives and shoots Roman. Gwen volunteers to trigger Mac's device manually, sacrificing herself. Reunited with Phoenix, Mac arranges a Senate hearing wherein he presents his mother's climate change research.

Production

Development

On May 9, 2019, CBS renewed MacGyver for a thirteen episode fourth season that would air mid-season in the 2019–20 United States network television schedule.[18] It was later revealed that the season would premiere on February 7, 2020.[19] On November 6, 2019, it was announced that nine additional episodes had been ordered bringing the season to a full season of 22 episodes.[20]

Filming

The series continues to be produced in Atlanta, Georgia, filming at Mailing Avenue Stageworks in Chosewood Park.[21]

On March 13, 2020, it was announced that production on the fourth season had been shut down due to the COVID-19 outbreak, reducing the season to 20 episodes. Episode 19 was the last to be completely filmed before the production halt. Producers and CBS later chose to conclude the season with the final episode of the CODEX story arc, which was scripted to fit within the original 13 episode order.[22] This decision came after MacGyver was renewed for a fifth season on May 6, 2020,[23] allowing the final six episodes filmed for season 4 to be moved to season 5.[24]

Casting

The season features six starring roles, four of which returned from the first season. Levy Tran was promoted to series regular after recurring in the previous season, and Henry Ian Cusick also joined the main cast.[25]
