Mac and Jack partner with older versions of themselves, a Russian bomb programmer and his estranged handler, to shut down a Soviet-era warhead in Moscow. But when the antiquated computer needed to disable the warhead becomes inoperable, Mac must find a way to fix it with only duct tape and wire in time to prevent a new Cold War. (CBS TV Network)

I actually liked this episode, and you can see that the creators geared up to make it even more reminiscent of the original series, which is also reflected in the theme of the Cold War and atomic bombs. But it works, which is good because it's clear that director Joe Dante knows what he wants and he knows how to transfer it to the viewer. More episodes like this would be perfect.
