Later in the day, after the incident

I know this part starts out the same as the first, but it's not all the same. And this time, no one's dreaming. So…

~~~~~

Later in the day, after the incident...

MacGyver and Pete were eating dinner. Pete couldn't see it, but he could tell the restaurant was filled with people.

"So, Pete. What have you been doing?"

"Oh," Pete answered. "Nothing much. Just the usual. How 'bout you?"

"Nothin' much ... Just the usual ..."

"Oh?" Pete gave MacGyver a skeptical look. He knew what 'the usual' was for Mac.

"Well ... Sam and I have just been traveling. If we come across somebody in trouble, we help them out. We couldn't just leave them. Sam is sooo stubborn, though. I ask him to stay in one place ... stay out of trouble. But does he listen ... no, of course not ..."

Pete smiled, "Sounds like somebody else I know."

"Oh?" MacGyver put mock curiosity in his voice. "Who?"

Pete laughed. "Hmmm, I wonder ..."

"Well, I --" MacGyver stopped suddenly.

"What?" Pete asked.

"What?" Pete asked again, after MacGyver didn't answer.

"Huh?" MacGyver asked. "Oh, nothin'. I just thought I saw somebody."

"Let me guess. You thought you saw Murdoc."

"No. That waitress over there. She's kinda' cute."

"Oh ... well at your age, you have to take all you can get!"

"At my age? Then I wonder what it's like at your age ..."

"Funny, Mac. Very funny. Why are you looking at girls?" Pete asked.

"Not a good habit. Guess I picked it up from Sam ..."

"Where is he anyway?"

"On the beach. 'Looking for girls'."

"Yep. I'd say you picked it up from him!!"

MacGyver chuckled, "Yeah... I guess ..."
