In the MacGyver episode “Quarantine + N95 + Landline + Telescope + Social Distance,” while Mac (Lucas Till), Bozer (Justin Hires) and Riley (Tristin Mays) try to stop a crime in progress at their neighbor’s house, Russ (Henry Ian Cusick) prepares for a visit from Sophia. When teased about receiving a “booty call,” Russ says she’s not a booty call but “a dear friend.” Russ’ romantic weekend fling lasts longer when they quarantine together.
